Slo-Moe Thing of the Day: To promote its “zero microwaves” policy and prove that “microwaves ruin everything,” Moe’s Southwest Grill sticks a bunch of things that shouldn’t be inside microwaves inside a microwave and presses “start.”

1. I love Moe’s and I wish we had one around here.
2. This is awesome!

RIP Society of the Day: Several film-goers in Liverpool demanded a refund after seeing award-winning throwback film The Artist because they were “unaware that The Artist was a silent film.”
Patrons of the Odeon Liverpool One reportedly asked for their money back upon realizing the film contains no spoken dialog and is presented on a smaller screen
The Artist, which just landed 12 BAFA nominations after picking up a Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture (Comedy/Musical), pays homage to the silent-era films of the 20s.
A Daily Telegraph source says Odeon Liverpool One ushers are now required to ask paying customers walking into The Artist if they are aware the film is silent.

Good for them. I hated that it was presented in 4:3. That annoyed me almost as much as the plot. Zing! This movie was ok. Go watch Midnight in Paris.
Don’t call me late, call me busy.

Pareidolia of the Day: 38-year-old Sarah Crane of Orpington in Kent was retrieving her laundry after leaving it outside to dry overnight, when she noticed the face of Jesus Christ winking back at her from the wrinkles in one of her socks.
“I called my boyfriend over straight away,” she says. “We could both clearly see the face of Jesus in the sock. There is a straight-on face and a side profile too. We couldn’t believe it.”
Crane and her beau were planning to construct a shrine for the sock, but as soon as they moved it, the creases shifted and the face fell apart.
“[Y]ou can still just about make out his face,” Crane said. “Unfortunately, it’s not quite good enough to donate to our local church but our friends have all been round to see it.”
