Drinking semen may be good for your health. No, this is not some disgusting pick-up line, although hey, disgusting dudes of the world, you might want to grab a pen and take some notes.

According to Columbia Health, human male ejaculate contains fructose sugar, water, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), citric acid, enzymes, protein and zinc--stuff you'd find in a nutritional supplement or protein shake. A new study from Monash University has found that certain females in the animal kingdom consume male seed as if it were food, and it may be beneficial for humans to do the same.

First there were breast milk cupcakes. Then came breast milk ice cream. Now there are breast milk lollipops. Are lactating mothers taking over the sweets industry?

Eh, probably not. But if you're desperate for a taste of your infancy, the days when all you were required to do in life was sleep, poop and suck the golden nectar of your mother's bosom, you're in luck.

Just in case you want a side of cleavage with your sprinkles and fresh strawberries, there's Cups, a new fro-yo chain with a view. BuzzFeed tweeted this help-wanted ad today, which features four, um, perky young girls.

Sriracha-a documentary film by Griffin Hammond

If there was ever a success story in the condiment world, it's that of Sriracha. Just in the past year, the little hot sauce that could has become a Lay's potato chip flavor (now sold on Amazon), a Subway topping and has spawned a Trader Joe's knockoff.

It's about time someone made a movie about it.

If you're going to be drinking this summer down the Jersey Shore, at least you can be more confident the shot of Lagavulin or Auchentoshan the bartender just poured you is actually high-end scotch, not dishwater.

That's because the New Jersey Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) led a statewide raid on Wednesday, the culmination of a sting operation called Operation Swill, in which plainclothes investigators went to 63 bars that had received complaints about mislabeled alcohol, ordered shots neat and surreptitiously took samples for testing. The ABC collected more than 1,000 open bottles of liquors from 63 license holders in 15 of New Jersey's 21 counties, then subjected all of the contents to testing.

This was bound to happen someday, and of course, it happened in Japan. Burger joint Lotteria teamed up with ramen restaurant Menya Musashi to create a--you guessed it--ramen burger.

Two burger buns sandwich a pork cutlet, mayo and a bed of lightly fried ramen noodles. The concoction is served with "katsuo dashi," a Japanese broth.

The rebel activists at PETA are known for using shock tactics to grab people's attention (i.e., "Let's promote animal rights with women masturbating with asparagus!"), so their antics shouldn't surprise anyone. And yet, I feel dirty after watching the latest ad.

For 46 seconds, animals--horses, rhinos, water buffalos--do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. Seeing all this thumpin' and bumpin' in the wild is supposed to make you want to go vegan because, as the tagline says, "Vegans have a bigger sexual appetite."

HAPIfork

Technology can be a real bitch sometimes. Facebook sends evidence of your weekend shenanigans to your mom's newsfeed, GPS devices reveal when you're at Sidecar Doughnuts instead of the gym, and now there's this: a fork that knows when you're pigging out.

It's called HAPIfork, and it's pretty genius, actually. The gizmo records the pace at which you touch your fork to your mouth, and when you eat too fast, a "gentle vibration" and indicator light reminds you to slow down. (Thankfully, no pig noises go off.) It also tracks how many servings you've taken and how long your meals last. All of this information gets uploaded to a website or mobile app, on which you can view your eating trends and change your habits accordingly.

It was bound to happen sooner or later: A Starbucks barista, either having misheard the name "Virginia" or unable to spell it, wrote "Vagina" on a customer's cup.

Yelp is many things to many people: a bully pulpit or simply just a bully to businesses barely trying to make it. It's been ridiculed, parodied, and satired...but this next story is so surreal, even the people at Yelp probably didn't see it coming.

The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/with-few-other-outlets-for-complaints-inmates-review-prisons-on-yelp/2013/04/27/59cc3440-9e24-11e2-a2db-efc5298a95e1_story.html) was the first major news outlet to notice that Yelp was being used by inmates to review the prisons in which they were incarcerated. Yes, as it turns out, Yelp has starred write-ups on penitentiaries, with such pronouncements from its, um, patrons, as "You heard right, they have juice boxes! . . . So if you're going to get arrested, do it in Arlington County."
