“The back reflector was taken off, but if you think that deters me from riding at night, you’re way wrong. I practiced ninja training in Japan’s mount Fuji for 5 years and the first rule they teach about ninja biking is that back reflectors let the enemy know where you are.”

Leading scientist urges teaching of creationism in... →
distorte:
Kind of fascinated by this article this morning. Because once you get past the journalistic bullshit, what the Royal Society seems to be suggesting is that science teachers should be allowed to mention creationism in schools, so as to hold it up against scientific theories and acknowledge the fundamental differences between how both are conceived and tested (or not tested). Because if a...

I’ve calculated the amount of revenue they’ll have made by 2015, and the answer is: A fuckingridiculousamountillion dollars. Although that’s US currency, so it’s like $10 Canadian.

Arran: Look buddy, you can't come in with your small town attitude and start telling me, a seasoned verteran, what's what. Not in this game. This is my game.
Jake: Oh yeah, I bet you'd like that mate, running your cheap ass all over town, playing by YOUR rules because they make it easier for you.
Jake: Well now I'm here, and the game's about to change.
Arran: Oh so we're bringing that in are we? At least I pay for my paper! You're playing illegally
Jake: I'm just trying to go my own way, brotha.

"Entourage" Premier Dies →
ericanicole:
“Bringing in only a 1.0 rating, “Entourage” slipped 29% from last June’s premiere, a low not seen since July 2005. A poll of experts who are me think it may because that show sucks. It’s what nerds with no friends think cool people with friends act like. You ever see a McDonalds commercials with black people? Black people don’t act like that, but the white people who made the...
