A fascinating internet phenomenon that started on facebook and ended up as the humorous news bit on every news program on television. In reaction to the muslim cleric declaring that women 3who dress immodestly are responsible for earthquakes, a female feminist blogger started boobquake; women were asked to dress as immodestly today to see if showing cleavage would, in fact, cause more than the usual number of earthquakes (there were earthquakes, but not more than usual).
The webcomics Girls with Slingshots and Wapsi Square had comics in support of the event, but Something Positive had an interesting commentary on the issue.
Its kind of sad that The South Park episode gets censored by Comedy Central and hardly anyone raises an eyebrow. A response to a retarded Iranian prayer leader's comments in the form of an internet experiment involving cleavage and sarcasm invites the attention (and snickers) of the world.
