It’s another big weekend of holiday parties and Christmas shopping.

Here at snarfd, we know you’re looking for some great deals — so we’ve deeply discounted a huge selection of last week’s most popular articles. From bogus deities to Daddies Gone Wild, it’s all got to go. And, for a limited time only, we’ll evn throw in free gift wrapping. So read now!

• The Flying Spaghetti Monster Appears in a Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie: Imagine the surprise of Duke Ferris and his wife, Miranda, when they noticed the Noodly visage of none other by the Flying Spaghetti Monster staring back at them from their Thanksgiving pumpkin pie. It’s a miracle — as testified by the dozens of true Pastafarians who have left their adoration in the comments section. Be sure to see additional apparitions of the FSM here and here. RAmen!
• Ultimate Font Dork Shirt — Hel F*#@ing Vetica: What does the fashion-forward typography geek really want to see under the tree Christmas morning? Probably this baby, from NYT online designer Khoi Vinh (of Subtraction fame). There’s also the more genteelly worded but no less clever “Fear of a Cooper Black Planet,” a favorite of snarfd Director of Sales Lisa Cagle. Grab yours before they sell out.
  
• The Bizarre, Obscene, and Disturbing Hidden Images in Leonardo da Vinci’s Sacred Art: Who’d have guessed Leonardo da Vinci was such a randy old goat? An Italian group has found what appear to be pretty wild images hidden in some of the world’s most famous works of classical art. These little surprises turn up with use of strategically placed mirrors. Lots of strong opinion in the story’s comments — what do you think? It’s possible you’ll never think of Adam and Eve in quite the same way after checking this story’s illustrations.
• Man Arrested After Leaving His Four Kids in the Car to Get a Lap Dance: If convicted, Cardrico Lajuan Nash is a standout for 2007’s Crap Dad of the Year award. He’s accused of leaving his two kids — aged three and seven years — locked in the car in 35 degree weather while he went into a local strip club for a luxurious, hour-long lap dance. At 1:00 in the morning, no less. Here’s the kicker: it was the first time he’d had the kids in a year. Cue Dr. Phil.
• Cooking With Pooh: C’mon — what was your first thought when you read the title? It wasn’t baking cookies with our beloved Winnie the Pooh, was it? Well, it gets worse. Click the link and check out the cover art. Sweet Jeebus, what was the publisher thinking? Let me answer that: they weren’t thinking of anything at all. Because they’re a pack of bloody idiots.

It was a great week for snarfd. Ten days after launch, we passed a quarter million page views. We are sincerely grateful to be part of your daily reading.
