Another week, another batch of great comments on the Finds of the Day! Like always, we’ll send free magazines to these esteemed commentors for their excellence. If you want to follow the comments through your RSS reader, click here to nerd-out w/ your RSS feed.

This week we had the pleasure of Sam, who unwittingly modelled for an unknown artist in NYC’s Central Park in this find, giving us a little more info about the situation.  Plus, we’ve got Tammy (all the way from Germany!) commenting about bacon + perfume here.  Finally, Aaron from Toronto reflects on “Lucky Nicky.”

“The Best Thing Ever” FOUND by Sam in New York City, New York
Sam in NYC said:
Wow, I had no idea so many comments were on this. I looked around for Katie and asked people if they’d seen what happened, but nobody knew anything. I looked towards where the artist would have been based on the angle of the drawing and nobody was there. I probably slept for a long time, since I had pulled two consecutive all-nighters. I’d really like to find out who Katie is. Definite movie material.

“The Bacon” FOUND by Kizzi Little in Savannah, Georgia
Tammy in Germany said:
“I can bring home the bacon
fry it up in a pan
and never, never, never let you forget you’re a man
’cause I’m a woman
Enjoli!”

Launched by the design house of Revlon in 1978, Enjoli by Revlon is classified as a flowery fragrance. This feminine scent posesses a blend of: a green scent, mixed with citrus, flowers and patchouli,with warm tones of amber and musk. It is recommended for romantic wear. YEAH IT SMELLS NASTY!!

“Lucky Nicky” FOUND by Megan in Farmville, Virginia
Aaron in Toronto said:
Good for him. Wish I could say the same.

The comments we’ve received on the Finds of the Day are so consistently awesome that we’re starting a weekly “Comments of the Week” section here at News of the FOUND to accommodate all of these fantastic comments. We’ll choose some of our favorite comments from the past week and send those commentors some free magazines to show our appreciation!

“Karen’s Guide” FOUND by Nancy in Portland, Oregon
Tess in Sactown said:
My list used to just have 1. Job, and 2. Smell okay. Now my self-esteem has soared and I have a total of 16 items on my list. You must get 12 out of 16 (75%) to go out with me. Uh, some of the stuff is pass or fail … like “Male from birth” and “Must have a bed.” Karen needs something to boost her self-esteem … but she’s got a great list to start. Self-love is the key to dating success.

And, after a little commentor prodding, Tess gave us her full list!

1. Male from birth
2. Age 32-52
3. Good-looking (subjective - I like a gappy smile)
4. Well-groomed
5. Employed
6. Some money
7. Funny
8. Likes sex exclusively with women and must have a bed
9. Smells good
10. Initiates relationship
11. Planner
12. Dances
13. Good health
14. Intelligent
15. No criminal record (civil disobedience is okay)
16. Ready for relationship

Also contrary to popular belief, women who take their clothes off are usually in charge!

“Ceiling Treasure” FOUND by Stephen McHenry in Minneapolis, Minnesota
Cody in St. Louis said:
My father and I have redone many houses, some ours and some other people’s, but we always leave some sort of photo or note in the walls so that years from now, when people tear through them, they will find some sort of time capsule of the people who once inhabited the space.

“Conspiracy Note” FOUND by Deirdre Smith in Frederick, Maryland
Wendi in Virginia said:
Leaderless Resistance refers to an anti-establishment approach where small cells act against organizations, governments, etc. The cells have no leaders, no real structure, and no organized communication, so they are hard to pursue. Pretty interesting. I wiki-d this after seeing the find. Edutainment!

Yay for the comments section! We can’t get enough of the comments you all leave for the Finds of the Day. The finds always speak for themselves, but adding a few thousand extra voices into the mix really adds to the whole thing. Like the Finds of the Day, the commentators have been funny, honest, helpful, and a little strange. Great job!

The commentators deserve some glory, so we want to share some of our favorite comments from the past two weeks. Plus, we’re sending them free FOUND Magazine #4s to show a little extra appreciation.

Keep up the good work, people!

Happy Holidays

Word up! Possum is the singular possessive present of the word ‘posse’ (like curriculum and curriculi or alumnus or alumni). So, what went down could have actually been a gang-related incident like a home invasion, ya’ know. Dean for America

Apparently before he takes back Michigan, Ohio, Idaho, and the White House, he’s gonna do a wicked 15 minute, 135 bpm mix-down of Fleetwood Mac’s “Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow.” Impeach Clinton 2006

Yes, Bill! Yes! Impeach me again and again! Don’t stop impeaching me!
