Palin, witchcraft, obligatory

(via The TimesOnline)I find myself unsurprised and a little amused. It was only a matter of time before some wacky shit like this made its way to youtube. But I wonder how many people will look at this and find it to be normative, acceptable behavior? Judging by the visible crowd, I’m betting the place [...]

This guy ain’t watching the same movies that I am

Always settle scores at noon: The great thing about Paris is that you can always see the Eiffel Tower from your room, whether you’re an artist in a tiny garret or a millionaire in a first-class hotel. Just look out the window and there it is. We who have spent much of our lives at [...]

anti-police day is in full swing

This is in your best interest? For example, Contia Orsby is a 58 year old black woman, who has spent most of her life helping sick people and, as far as I know, never did any real harm to anybody. She’s originally from Louisiana, and now living in Occupied Portland. She used to work as [...]

it’s not a case of the Mondays – I’m a lizard trapped in the stone and my balls hurt

Mr Average breaks the law at least once a day from speeding to illegal downloading.

Crimes with either no victim or [...]
