<p>There&#8217;s a chain of taco restaurants in Georgia called Taco Mac. In Atlanta, a deer smashed through the glass window of one of these fine establishments, lost an antler, ran around panicked for a about a minute, and then ran out the back door that an employee opened for it.</p>
<p>Complete story at <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/08/deer-crashes-taco-mac-restaurant-atlanta_n_1082588.html">HuffPo</a>.</p>
<p>I have no sympathy for this deer&#8217;s lost antler. Deer are assholes; they&#8217;re just <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL9xCWphV8s">&#8220;rats with hooves.&#8221;</a> Except they&#8217;re 200 pounds and will kill you if they ram into the driver side door of your sedan. Which they do, because they have no concept of man-made objects that move. And apparently, no concept of glass, either.</p>
<p>If you missed the deer attacking the guy on a bike viral video from last month, here&#8217;s <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;v=S2oymHHyV1M#!">irrefutable proof that deer are assholes</a>.</p>

<p>Since I always need to hate on two things in WNW, the second thing I would like to hate this evening is rich people. Because <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/entertainment/2011/11/beyonces-baby-to-be-bathed-in-baubles-thanks-to-auntie-kelly/">they bathe their babies</a> in $5,200 pink, Swarvoski crystal-encrusted bathtubs. 44,928 crystals that were laid by hand. (Though I guess if any celebrity baby is going to be blinging, it might as well be Beyonce and Jay-Z&#8217;s.)</p>
<p>If you ever want to make yourself suck by looking at opulent manifestations of capitalism, go to the product&#8217;s site and look at the thumbnails under the main picture. In addition to bathing babies, other suggestions for use of the 5 Grand &#8220;Diamond Bathtub&#8221; (misleading name since it&#8217;s crystal, not diamond) include storing puppies and serving alcohol.</p>
<p>Apparently, &#8220;a percentage of the proceeds&#8221; will be donated to The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer foundation, but they don&#8217;t say what percent. Whatever it is, the benefit to puppies in need of a crystal bathtub beds will certainly mitigate the guilt of spending a potential $5,200 direct contribution to charity on a baby that isn&#8217;t capable of forming memories yet.</p>
