This Week's Sign of the Downfall of Civilization


Attention slackers: It’s time to roll up those sleeves and get those hands dirty. Frito-Lay has announced a nationwide search for five new unusually shaped Cheetos to be added to its online Cheetos Museum. (Current inductees include a “chiraffe,” “cheese-sea horse” and orange lobster.) The five winners will be awarded $10,000 each, with the grand prize winner taking home an extra $50,000. Not bad for a day of couch surfing.
