This week was much better than last. While I’ve been down and out with a cold, winter season started and I got a chance to get out on my Snowboard last weekend, so that’s always a nice start to my week. Here are my fun finds for the week:

Monica Hamburg  on twitter put me on to Not Hired – “dedicated to all those who wonder why no one has called to set up an interview…” – some good stuff on there! Sort of like True Office Confessions, but for HR professionals to dish on the worst applicants or least-promotable.

I saw this ad for Helzberg Diamonds while watching Superbikes with big-man on Sunday. So funny to see how targeted ads are on different shows and networks:

My favourite FAIL from failblog in recent history:

Nice.

And, um, thanks to the guys at Highly Obsessed, I stumbled upon this bit of i-dunno-what-to-call-it… I’m not sure what the boys over at DC are up to, but this strange commercial (?) featuring Devun Walsh and Iikka Backstrom is entirely too weird for me. I’m not the target market, clearly. Not even a little.

Oh yeah, and the folks over at the Student Doctor Network sure get some funny stories to share on a forum. Awesome.

In the spirit of the festive season of non-denominational holiday celebrations I bring you a little icanhascheezburger…

And absolutely last, but certainly not least, I was just browsing twitter before going to bed and happend upon what is suddenly my favourite tweet of the week from @unclespeedo.
