“Give me a woman who loves beer and I will conquer the world.”
– Kaiser Wilhelm. Proof that not EVERYTHING war-loving German leaders say is crap.

“If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband...”
– Deuteronomy 25:11-12, New International Version (NIV)
Apparently, the Bible’s got a pretty strict “No Sac-Tapping” policy…

Wiki-ception →
You probably know Wikipedia has lists. But did you know that if you want to see what lists they offer, you can list a list of lists? And, yes, the list of lists itself is included on the list. Now that’s thorough.

Dress Sweatpants →
Click to embiggen.
So I happened to stumble upon these bad boys and I’m wondering why they aren’t all the rage already? Following in the noble tradition of the tuxedo t-shirt, these sweatpants allow for maximum comfort with only minimal self-loathing.
If your wife is going to insist you put on pants today, why not these? They look just like respectable dress pants, but...

Photorealistic...Cakes? →
Click to embiggen. It’s cool. It’s refreshing. It’s…a cake? The good people at Mental_floss have published a list of cakes that look like other food. You know, because cakes are so horrible to look at. Unnecessary? Maybe a little. Awesome? Totally!

DOJ to America: we won't reveal the circumstances... →
This is just chilling.
The DOJ has rejected a Freedom of Information Act request from the New York Times that asked the agency to reveal the legal basis for the newly unveiled American program of strategic drone-attack assassinations of American citizens off the field of battle.
Summary:
The government dropped a bomb on a U.S. citizen,
who, though a total dick and probably a...

Sorry it’s been so long since my last post. Finals, work, you know how it is. I’ve found something to share. This is a first draft of a piece I wrote for one of my classes. Probably going to go into more depth with better examples and talk more about how it affects writing. Anyway, here it is.
They’ve graced the silver screen since the age of gas shortages and unpopular...

The Best Marketing Idea Ever →
This is the most simple marketing breakthrough in recent history. Just listen to this catchy description of Café Zu, a drink produced by Coca Cola marketed in Thailand:
This Thailand coffee is not for the lazy. Or the ladies. The official brand statement says CAFÉ ZU is a “ready-to-drink canned coffee with ginseng developed for hard-working males between 25 and 35 years old.”
Instead of doing...

Government Joyride →
This was just kind of sickening: apparently a man’s $750,000 1995 Ferrari F50 was stolen, but then recovered. While it was being held as evidence, an FBI agent and a federal prosecutor decided, “f-yeah!”, and took it on a joyride. And anytime you hear a story about a joyride, it always ends the same: they totaled it.
Naturally, the man sued for damaged stemming from the...

How To Disable Facebook Poke Notifications
I’ve generally been in favor of some of Facebook’s recent changes, like the Timeline. One thing I can’t condone, however, is notifications for pokes. The whole idea of pokes were that they were subtle, not jarring and demanding of attention. It was a great way to work your way up to having a conversation with someone, if you’re like me and have no balls, or a way to keep in...

“I’m peeing with @batemanjason at the moment..and we can confirm that we...”
– Will Arnett, apparently doing some homoerotic fetish bonding with his castmate. The important thing, though, is that we have confirmation not just of the AD movie, but new episodes as well!
