Other?I Could Do Better If My Arms Weren't So Short Fnord12 was slightly disapproving that i checked "Yes" when asked if i would be fine with using the children as weapons against the others. Der. Kids think it's fun to be swung around. They'd be totally fine. By min | August 23, 2012, 10:31 PM | Ummm... Other? | Link The sculpture features a female pig lying on the ground -- with her left breast exposed -- while a male pig stands behind it. To everyone with a gutter mind (that includes just about everyone), the pigs look as if they are doing it... doggie-style. I don't think they thought this through.

Other? | Link Who knows what their married life was like, but just think about how crazy he must have driven her for this woman to suddenly snap whilst drinking her coffee and start beating him with her mug. Her mug!! Who does that? Someone driven to the very end of her tether, that's who. All i'm saying is when we're old, fnord12 better not fuck with me before i've had my breakfast if he knows what's good for him. And he'd better make sure i don't have anything in my hand at the time, either, or i might do more than just stamp my foot in frustration. By min | August 23, 2012, 1:26 PM | Ummm... Other? | Link H/t to wnkr for one more example that society's going to hell in a handbasket. According to police, Tiana Harris, 19, Lisa Parker, 47, and Estefania Myers, 21, were captured in a cell phone video egging on two three-year-old children to get physical for the fun of it at the Hands of Our Future Daycare in Dover, Delaware. In the footage, taken in March, a toddler's voice is heard crying out in pain, "He's pinching me," as the little one tries to break free from a scuffle with another youngster. Shockingly, the voice of one of the workers responds, "No pinching, only punching," as the worker guides the child to stay in the fight zone at the center, that boasts a peaceful atmosphere with the motto: "Young Hearts Loving the World." Don't these daycare workers know that punching is unrealistic? They should be grappling. The best part of this story might be the sign posted on the door after the place was shut down. A City of Dover Code Enforcement sign was posted to the door reading: "Danger. This structure is declared unsafe for human occupancy or use." Unsafe if you're a pussy!

Because clearly you needed to be warned about the demonic zombie apocalypse. You've surely heard of this spate of bizarre cannibalistic crimes. They sound like scripts from shock B-grade horror films--but, incomprehensibly, they are actually happening. A homosexual porn star in Canada apparently killed his lover and ate him--but not before mailing to the nation's main political parties his victim's dismembered feet and hands. A naked Miami man ate almost the entire face off a homeless person; when police intervened, he viciously growled back at them like an animal before they shot him to death. A Louisiana man was working in his yard when another man showed up and attacked him, and actually bit a chunk of his face off. At a college in Maryland, a student admitted to carving up his roommate with a knife and devouring his heart and part of his brain. The mind reels. And all these events occurred just within the last couple weeks. Much media coverage has centered on bath salts--a potent drug that a couple of these attackers might have taken. The U.S. Senate responded by voting almost unanimously to ban the substance. As reasonable as passing that bill may have been, though, are we really going to pretend that this combination of chemicals is the real cause of these horror stories? No drug turns people into crazed, violent beasts. These are clearly crimes influenced - or perhaps even committed--by demons. That's right--there is a spiritual dimension to these events that the media are apparently duty-bound to completely ignore. People can laugh or scoff, but demons are very real, and active in the world today. You can put me in the "laugh or scoff" column. I wasn't even aware of these incidents that they think i've "surely heard of". And even if are real, that is quite a conclusion to draw. It must be pretty scary to believe you are living in End Times. Even for the Trumpet, this one's a doozy. By fnord12 | August 14, 2012, 10:42 AM | Ummm... Other? | Comments (1)| Link Matthew Yglesias discusses possible non-discriminatory reasons for a price difference between "tortillas" and "wraps", which are the same thing, and in the process comes up with a great name for what i wish was a 1950s style informational short that Mystery Science Theater could make fun of for me.
