Jesus read from the red part of the bible
The "Evolution Isn't Even Logical" link just killed me inside. It is not because it is founded in religion, but because the science they quote is downright wrong. Seeing people falsifying science to prove religion makes me a sad panda.

A pinch of snuff
It makes no difference if the movies are fake or real, the frightening thing to think about is that those who film snuff and/or watch it for sexual purposes would like to actually take part in it. That being said, some people of "that scene" are upstanding citizens with one too many skeletons in their closet, but one must wonder how many eventually cross the line. As for that guy, I think I speak for us all when I say you can go fornicate yourself with an iron rod.

$250,000 award
My science is lacking, how is it a fact (or common knowledge for that matter) that the earth is not "billions of years old." I was under the impression that the planet was slightly over 4.62 billion years old.

Flash Poem
I don't get it... A shitty poem with a bunch of bells and whistles attached is still a shitty poem.

"I've become a prostitute"
... Perhaps I am wrong to give little sympathy to those who state how horrible they have become, but do nothing to alter their predicament. This was her choice. I could be mistaken, though, and this might not be the cry for sympathy that I take it as. You never know.

Snap into a Slim Jim.
When a boy's disgusting private goes inside of a girl's shameful unmentionable, there is a serious risk of it breaking off and causing excruciating pain while it travels throughout your body like a giant trichinosis worm.

Whirled peas
Violence against people with a socially-progressive agenda is nothing new and not something that amuses me.
It seems to me that the "socially-progressive agenda" instigated this particular violence. They started a fight... People fought back. The hippies cannot fairly be viewed as victims here.

That being said, I also think that a group of people who "raid" a trading floor with balloons and noisemakers cannot truly be considered a credible organization. The only thing that they are accomplishing is making themselves look naive and childish. If I were to march into your place of work tomorrow, blow a whistle and demand that you sacrificed profits for some reason or other would you take me seriously? I certainly hope not.

Your knee-jerk reaction in favor of oil-traders over Greenpeace only establishes that you're a right-winger.
Correction: My knee jerk reaction in favor of sanity and reason over immaturity and foolishness only establishes that I am not the sort of person who thinks of this behavior as effective.
I never said that I was pro-oil or anti environment. I merely stated that this is not the way to put a positive light on an... [more]

Third party edit: your comic-book-guy tone firmly establishes you as a dork.
So then, I am dork... Well Then... Sure glad that's settled.
Should I care more than i do?
mervin, on a more serious note it's extremely naive to think Greenpeace's antics discredit them.
While I understand that if it weren't for bad publicity, they would get practically none at all, I just... [more]

valentine's day
Let me get this straight... This means that if you got into a heated fight with someone and told them to go kill themselves, you are guilty of attempted murder. Is it murder if they do actually kill themselves?

Pixel-art Life
Looking back on would haves and could haves seems to be an inherently depressing activity. Nevertheless, a very interesting post.

Richard Dawkins on Nilsson/Pelger
Ignorance 101 as taught by fundamentalists everywhere. Oh, wait, perhaps it does make more sense that the earth was created in six days about 6000 years ago. While we are saying that, we could also say that the earth is flat and the center of the universe. Then we can say that the power of the vagina makes women evil. But first and foremost, god rules!!!!!
