The Mono

Bahahahahaha!

If you haven't already seen this comic, you'll love it.

So. wrong.

Friend Computer,

I'm ready for you to break out my next clone now. Battling the pinko commie mutant traitors has left this clone kind of rickety. A fresh one would be great.

Your loyal citizen,

Thanks to lily, I was introduced to this little gem:

The Solution to the Big Dinosaur Paradox

Putting aside for a moment the fact that I was unaware of the presence of a Big Dinosaur Paradox, this site is wonderful. It seeks to use logical deduction and scientific evidence (no, real physics formulas and numbers) to find answers to the great puzzles of life, or at least what this author thinks are the great puzzles. It discards some of the weirder theories out in creationist-land because they don't hold up scientifically. And finally, at the end, the stream of logic and scientific thought comes to an irrefutable conclusion. (No, I won't tell you what it is. Though you might want to look up which materials have a density of 670 kg/m³.)

It is, without a doubt, one of the most entertaining sites I've seen in a while.

I wonder about the design process that created the A-10 [fighter jet]. "Give me a gun. Bigger. No, bigger. I SAID 'BIGGER' DAMN YOU. Okay, put some wings on it. Fine, we're done. What's that? It's ugly? You know what else is ugly? YOUR MOM."

I has a sweet potato!

(Text-only, SFW other than an occasional F-bomb, uses real English, features a Dog. Totally awesome.)

This post made me think of you.

This. This is a glimpse of exactly how I feel about Vista.

I'll stick with my complex, obedient Linux system with a side of Propaganda.

I'm unfamiliar with this guy, but I have to admit, this is the best, snarkiest synopsis of what's going on with Prop 8 that I've seen so far.

His "spontaneous generation" theory of AIDS wins the Internets.

Hamas: Hey, give Gaza some nom noms. Israel: As soon as you stop going all pew pew. Hamas: WTF r u talking about? U.N.: OMG STOP



I love lily so much. :)

Honorary Gay shirts and caps. Including "Honorary Gay (with an honorary illegal marriage)" and "Honorary Gay (with an honorary gay divorce)".

As Donna Barr says, "If we can CHOOSE to be gay, we can ALL choose to be gay! Overload the system! Whee!"

CERN scientists gifted with red crowbar to fend off headcrabs

I'm guessing that there are enough geeks in the ranks of the CERN physicists that they'll appreciate it.

I found an icon running wild in LJ space that I thought you might like:





...actually, it describes a few of my friends. ;)

I'd be unhappy when the plastic latch broke off... as they all seem to do, eventually. Can't just crimp a new end on this one.

Now, a white gold connector... that might be classy, and much more durable. :)

and have him read Shrine of the Mall-Ninja. firestrike, have a look when you're back online.

Anyone who has run a White Wolf LARP will find this guy all too familiar.



I've been having to read it a little at a time, because it makes my head hurt. You think the first part is funny? Wait until you get to halfway down... and it just keeps getting worse.

I am not responsible for any keyboards you may have to clean/replace, so watch what you're drinking when you read it.

firestrike, go have a look at this. You may like a bunch of the rest, too. (ooooooh -- this wins.)

There's enough WoW references to keep knaveofhearts entertained, too, starting with the one just previous to the one I linked.

From my history book, on the French colony of Saint-Domingue (now known as Haiti):

In November 1723 a crowd of a hundred women attacked the Maison de l'Afrique, the island seat of the powerful Company of the Indies. Led by a onetime actress named Sagona, owner of a bar in the town, they smashed the windows of the building, broke in, and threw furniture, books, and papers into the street. They tracked some of the company's officials down to a nearby house, where Sagona placed a gun against the throat of one of them and said, "Drink, traitor, it'll be your last." Reportedly he was saved just in time by the intervention of an officer. The next night the rioting continued as a larger crowd again attacked the Maison de l'Afrique and then set fire to a plantation owned by the company at La Fossette. In the crowd were 60 men, armed and dressed like women, and more than 300 women, some covered in flour and wearing fake moustaches.

Disney left out the crossdressing -- so much for historical accuracy. :)
