Introducing The 5 Craziest Brothels From Around The World

The world’s oldest trade has taken a blow from the internet and the economy, or so people say. According to people who work at brothels, they have to try extra hard to get people to come into their business, offering incentives and discounts since clients can have access to sex online without going into creepy establishments. 

There are a few brothels that stand out due to the extreme weirdness they provide, as if they were Disney minus the cute. Check these out:

Shibuya Pink Girls Club

You may wonder what’s so weird about this place to make it to this list, and we’ll just tell you that it’s designed as if it were a subway train, filled with school girls. Men pay around 100 dollars to gain entry and to be able to grope any girl they want.

Passion Wagon

Taking a page from delivery services from all over the world, Passion Wagon provides sex to their clients on the go. The operation was started by two English prostitutes were looking for an effective way of avoiding the police. Other countries are following this model and looking to develop their own version of  mobile brothels. Because you can’t get that from a computer.

Sex Doll Brothels

Japan has thought of the perfect option for those guys who are shy and don’t want to socialize, designing brothels filled with all kinds of sex dolls. These dolls are very popular in Japan, even though they can be super expensive because of their realistic looks. Removing the human factor is a smart idea for these brothels, at least from a business standpoint, since you don’t have to pay or deal with any humans. The only downside, which is a pretty big one, is that someone would have to clean the dolls, which sounds like a truly awful job. 

The Phoenix Goddess Temple

Prostitution and religion sound like ideas that can’t coexist, but that’s not what these people had in mind when they created a place like this one. This temple was located in Arizona and it preached for the sexual liberation of men and women. It took little for the police to figure out that this place wasn’t a temple, and that people were offering “donations” in exchange for “neo-tantric healing therapies”, which was just a fancy word for sex. The operation was shut down, but it was still a ingenious way to start a business.

The Alien Cathouse

As it’s name suggests, this brothel has a focus on extraterrestrial fantasies. Alien sex, if you must. Created by Dennis Hof – millionaire brothel owner, supporter of Ron Paul in 2012, and inspiration for the HBO show Cathouse – the establishment is located on the outside of Las Vegas, near “Area 51”, better known as the capital of all things aliens in the US.

As you can tell from the video, the brothel looks less like a brothel and more like a sci-fi pervy frat house. The establishment has different rooms with different themes, including clothing options from Star Wars, Star Trek, Avatar and whatever you can think of. There’s a probing room, which was probably the reason why they made this brothel in the first place. It also has a gym? For some reason.

You’ll Never Guess What Part Of The Plane Is Most Filthy

You’ll Never Guess What Part Of The Plane Is Most Filthy

While most of us enjoy traveling, it’s hard to keep ourselves from thinking about the filth all around us. Like all the bacteria we’re exposed to the minute we get on a plane.

Those clunky seats haven’t been washed in God knows how long, the sweaty person that’s sitting right next to you, the tiny bathrooms that force you to touch their walls, or the awful food, there’s just no way to shake the feeling that you can get Mono at any minute (we’re talking about coach here).

The Huffington Post reports that one of the nastiest areas on the plane is one you might never have imagined. More than the food trays and toilets, the overhead air vent is the worst place to touch whenever you board a plane, containing more than 285 colony-forming units of bacteria per square inch. Travel Math is responsible for discovering these results, which they gathered from testing five airports and four different planes. The air vents ended up having more bacteria than the flush button of the toilets.

If you’re thinking you’d rather wrap yourself up in the planes’ cozy blankets instead of touching the air vent, think again, because other studies discovered that the blankets are repurposed and reused after the flight is done. While these results are shocking and gross, planes are not the worst place to be when it comes to bacteria. You’ll probably be exposed to the same amount of germs when you go out to work in your office.

Purell all day, every day. 

Avocado Light Is The Diet Coke Version Of The Tasty, Green Superfruit

Avocado Light Is The Diet Coke Version Of The Tasty, Green Superfruit

Avocados are the most divisive topic in this country. The plump fruit is ruining millennials, causing nationwide addictions that inhibit kids from buying starter homes. We would know.

But now a company in Spain is presenting the world with an alternative option—Avocado Light. Think of it as the Diet Coke version of avocados. The company Isla Bonita sought avocados with approximately 30% less fat than avocados currently available in local supermarkets. To do so, they scoured across the globe, experimenting with more than 30 avocado varieties from six different countries. They found that avocados naturally grown in warm tropical climates from places in Central and South America produced advantageous nutritional qualities.

“We have been importing avocados for decades. In all this time, many customers and consumers who are passionate about this fruit have regretted not being able to incorporate it more often into their diet. Others directly pass up on their nutritional advantages because these don’t compensate for their high caloric value,” Ramón Rey, director of the International and Marketing for Isla Bonita, told Fresh Plaza. “It is our responsibility to bet on fruits with the nutritional properties that our clients and consumers expect, as well as on the new flavours that gastronomy lovers want to experience.”

This launch of Avocado Light aims to attract new customers who might have shied away from the fruit because of its high fat and caloric concentration. Avocado Light also oxidizes more slowly than average avocados, so you don’t have to worry about presenting mushy brown guacamole to guests.

The fat in avocados is monosaturated, what nutritionist qualify as “good fat.” This is part of what earned the fruit the status of “superfood” and causing millennials to forgo possible mortgages for a taste. This new avocado will possibly allow more avocado consumption with all the health benefits.

However, for now it remains only available in Spain market chains. But with the local craze here we can only assume that will change soon. If there’s two things Americans love, it’s freedom and avocados. That’s in the Declaration somewhere, right?

‘Breaking Bad’ Fans Won’t Stop Throwing Pizzas On Walter White’s Old House

‘Breaking Bad’ Fans Won’t Stop Throwing Pizzas On Walter White’s Old House

If you’re a fan of family pizza parties, this story might make you sad. Apparently teenagers and fans of “Breaking Bad” find it hilarious to throw full pizzas atop the residence used to house the fiction family of Walter White. The problem has gotten so out of control, that Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan and star Jonathan Banks have made pleas for people to stop throwing pies on the rooftop.

Why? Because an Albuquerque family still lives there.

The homeowners have tried to have a sense of humor about the situation, believing it would eventually die down since the show’s been off the air. Instead it’s only become worse and Joanne Quintana, whose mother owns the property, has reached her breaking point.

“We feel like we can’t leave because when we, do something happens and that’s ridiculous,” she told KOB4. Later she added, “They feel the need to tell us to close our garage, get out of the picture, you know — tell us what to do on our own property.”

Back in March, homeowner Fran Padilla spoke with NPR about fans trying to re-create the infamous scene where Walter White throws a pizza atop the roof out of frustration.

“We’ve had pizzas on our roof. We’ve had pizzas on our driveway; pizzas until we’re sick of looking at pizzas,” Padilla told NPR.

Somehow Gilligan explicitly instructing fans not to be jerks and Banks saying he’ll “hunt down” these people wasn’t enough to stop them. So now the family is constructing a wall around their premises. One messy weekend caused the family to say enough was enough, believing the only solution was a six-foot iron wrought fence to keep out fanatic intruders.

“We don’t want to gate ourselves in,” Quintana said to KOB4. “We’re the ones who’s being locked up. We did nothing wrong.”

While that is a heartbreaking sentiment, it’s important to note the underlying tragedy of this story—who are all these peons wasting good pizza? These are the days I feel like I’ll never understand this country.

Finally, The Truth About Marijuana And Prostate Cancer

Finally, The Truth About Marijuana And Prostate Cancer

Years ago, researchers concluded that the amount of prostate cancers cases would nearly triple by 2021 in Canada. And in the US alone, nearly 200,000 cases are reported annually. Prostate Cancer is the second most deadly cancer among men, trailing right behind lung cancer.

Why is prostate cancer so malignant when the symptoms which include, difficulty urinating, frequently urinating or inconsistently urinate? Well, mainly because those inflicted with the disease may not experience symptoms at all.

For a disease that usually preys on men over the age of 40, but most prevalent in men over 55, symptoms can remain dormant, for years (especially men who go without proper examinations).

However, research suggests that cannabis can have an astonishing effect on prostate cancer. In a 2005 study, researchers from the University of Wisconsin discovered that a synthetic version of a cannabis compound, WIN55212-2, had the ability to decrease cell viability and increase Programmed Cell Death, also known as apoptosis.

What’s even more groundbreaking is that researchers noted that the normal and healthy prostate cells remained unaffected and unharmed by the administration of the synthetic cannabinoid.

Researchers from the same 2005 study concluded that cannabis compounds are far more useful for just slowing down the growth and progression of cancerous prostate cells – these cannabinoids can also decrease the expression and presence of the very receptors that aid in the the growth of prostate cells.

Androgen receptors have been noted to expedite the advancement of prostate cancer cells. However, the synthetic cannabis compounds used by researchers were in fact able to decrease the expression of them.

Scientist have already shown the strong connection between our body’s natural cannabinoid system (endocannabinoid system) and cannabinoids. Essentially, are body is inherently receptive to cannabinoids, because they work in sync with our cannabinoid system. Interestingly enough, top scientists have shown that not only do cannabinoid receptors exist naturally in the in the human prostate, they are found in larger quantities in cancerous prostates.

So what does that mean? Well, researchers strongly believe that our own cannabinoid system may be the biggest contender in fighting prostate cancer.

Half Of The Population In Canada Wants Marijuana Edibles

Half Of The Population In Canada Wants Marijuana Edibles

Justin Trudeau proposed a bill that could legalize recreational marijuana by the summer of 2018, a promise that goes way back to 2015 where it was one of his main proposals during his presidential campaign. While the country has had access to legal medical marijuana since 2001, this bill could make Canada the first industrialized country to legalize cannabis, an incredible feat for proponents of the plant from all over the world.

Although Canada seems to be ahead of the US in some marijuana related areas, when it comes to vapes, edibles, and other forms of consuming cannabis, they’re trailing behind. The new proposed bill does not address other forms of marijuana apart from smoking, in fact, edibles, oils, and vapes will still be considered illegal. 

A new study conducted by Dalhousie University shows the disparity between the government and the people, claiming that 46 percent of Canadians want to try edibles, a very positive statistic that shows how open minded the people of the country are when it comes to marijuana. The study surveyed over a thousand men and women and asked them several question, one of them being proving that 40 percent of them want to try cannabis infused foods. 

While there are no plans for edibles and vapes in the future of Canada, there’s still hope. If marijuana becomes legal, which is very likely, people within the industry will come up with ways to provide for the demands of the citizens of Canada.

Why Men Are Hurting Themselves During Sex More Than Ever

Why Men Are Hurting Themselves During Sex More Than Ever

Having sex in the shower can be efficient as well as fun. Hot water can keep you warm in the colder months. It can relax you. And you can easily clean off after. But more Brits, specifically men, are reporting sex sprains in the shower at alarming rates. In fact, the number of middle-aged men needing medical treatment for sex injuries has quadrupled in the past five years. QUADRUPLED!

And sex sprains are on the low end of the injury spectrum. Slipping in the shower causes all types of trauma, including fractured bones, concussions and even hernias, according to osteopath Stephen Makinde, clinical director of the ‘Perfect Balance’ clinic in London.

Why the spike? Makinde believes it comes down to more people truthfully reporting the injury versus giving some sorry tale about a “fishing injury” or an accident resulting from “rescuing that young child from a speeding car.”

But lying only further hurts the already injured, as doctors can’t properly treat a patient unless they know what happened.

Makinde tells The Mirror that  he’s seen “patients who haven’t been honest with their first, second, third or even fourth practitioner about how they’ve sustained their injury” and that his (and other doctors’) work is stymied because they don’t have all the details.

Around 80 percent of non-sporting injuries Mr Makinde treats are caused by sexually athletic couples.

He says most patients are men in their mid 50s, but women are  not excluded.

“When it comes to sex, we see everything from neck injuries to wrist fractures, ankle sprains and, of course, back problems. Hernias are common, too, close to where the adductor muscles of the pelvic region become strained.

“With the back, we see everything from facet joint locks – where the back spasms and locks in a particular position – to full-blown disc prolapses and sciatic pain.

“And the reasons for the rise in sexual injuries is intriguing. To me it’s also a positive, because it shows the patient-clinician relationship is working at a point where there’s real trust.”

This Guy’s Enormous ‘Star Wars’ Yard Display Is Winning Halloween

Halloween is like an Olympic sport these days. Only the best homes survive. If you’re not giving out full-sized candy bars and your Netflix password, you best have something else up your sleeve.

An Ohio man figured his trick-or-treat contribution this year would be a giant replica of an AT-AT (“Star Wars” translation: All Terrain Armored Transport) that’s about the same size as his two-story house in Parma.

Nick Meyer tells the Associated Press he started scaling his modest yard ornament beginning in April. He says it took about six months of weekend work.

We really didn’t know how well it’d go together until it was all together because everything was built separately — the body was separate, the legs were separate — so luckily it all kind of pieced in really well.

Meyer tells Cleveland.com he made the walker with hard foam, wood and plastic barrels. And despite appearances, Meyer admits he’s not a “Star Wars” fanatic, “I just thought it would be neat to build a walker. It’s something unique.”

Meyer’s wife Becky says every year she and Nick put something different out in the yard because Halloween is their favorite time of year,  “We just like to do it up big if we can.”

Nick says the kids love it and even some adults freak out over it when they drive by.

“You can hear them screaming out of their cars ‘Oh my god I’ve got to stop!’, so it’s been crazy.”

Nick says celebrating Halloween keeps him young and yes, of course, he’s dressing up for Halloween, but you’ll never guess as what. According to his wife, she’ll be dressing up as Darth Vader and Nick will be going as Princess Leia. ”

The couple will do it up again next year. Says Nick, “I’ll keep doing it until I decide to call it quits!”

Legal Marijuana In New Jersey? It Depends On This

Legal Marijuana In New Jersey? It Depends On This

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who throughout his time in office fought marijuana legalization, will hand the reins over to his successor in January. Who wins November’s gubernatorial election will decide, among a host of other things, the future of cannabis in the Garden State.

Phil Murphy, the Democratic candidate, supports legalizing the herb for recreational use, In fact, he has made a vow on the campaign trail that he would put his signature on a legalization bill within his first 100 days in office.

Republican Kim Guadagno, the Republican candidate and current  NJ Secretary of State, does not support legalization. However, she does support decriminalizing possession and promises to expand the state’s burdensome medical marijuana program.

According to NJ.com, Murphy articulated his desire for reform during a recent debate:

Murphy said he sees legalizing marijuana as a solution to the social justice problem of higher arrest and conviction rates for blacks than white.

“That is the reason we want to legalize marijuana — not because we can make money off of it. That’s the last reason.”

Guadagno fought back:

“There is a less intrusive way to solve the social injustice problem than legalizing drug dealers. I am wholly opposed to legalizing marijuana. Having said that I, do believe we can decriminalize it.”

Scott Rudder, a former state legislator and the president of the Canabusiness Association, told N.J. com that changes are afoot no matter who is the new governor.

“We know no matter who wins in November, there will be an expansion of the medical cannabis market to provide greater access to patients, and decriminalization. We are confident that will occur.”

Rudder is correct: If you are an advocate for sensible cannabis legislation, anybody is better than Christie. In the past, the longtime drug warrior has been vocal about his dislike for marijuana. Earlier this year, he called supporters of legalization “crazy liberals” who want to “poison our kids.” He called taxes generated from legal retail sales as “blood money.”

Christie also took a jab at Murphy:

“People like … Phil Murphy want to bring this poison, legalized, into this state under the premise that, well, it doesn’t matter because people can buy it illegally anyway. Then why not legalize heroin? I mean, their argument fails just on that basis. Let’s legalize cocaine. Let’s legalize angel dust. Let’s legalize all of it. What’s the difference? Let everybody choose.”

And this is the person President Donald Trump selected to chair the White House Commission on Combating Drug Addiction and the Opioid Crisis.
