21 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 15 Comments
For every cute little kitten, there are at least a million other animals out there that will literally eat your face off. Why? Because nature is an asshole, that’s why. While things like parktown prawns, great white sharks and rain spiders scare the bejezus out of me, they are nothing compared to these 7 creatures that prove that nature hates us and we are all going to die.

MISSING DOG – “COME IN, MOSCOW”
14 Jan 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 6 Comments
Please, dear God, do not see this as the start of a trend. We do NOT post lost dog ads on 2oceansvibe. But I just thought the rareness of receiving a lost dog ad in my inbox would be enough reason for this “one-off.” It’s very “niche,” don’t you think? And I am SO niche […]

In fact, there was a global tequila shortage if I remember correctly. Hectique! Anyway, you may have heard about the Swine Flu outbreak all over the US. From […]
