violent j and shaggy 2 dope
oldtobegin:
i almost forgot to write this down!
i had a dream last night that i met the insane clown posse.
i was at some store trying to get a thrash jacket made for me, and for some reason violent j and shaggy 2 dope were the only people working there. they were doing a pretty good job of putting together the jacket i wanted (not sure why there was a fancy store to go to to get this) but...
My gmail account got hacked today
classicmcconnell:
It sent out an e-mail to everyone I have ever e-mail from that account. I am getting weirded out replies from ex girlfriends, people who are practically strangers because I e-mailed them about something minor like 2 years ago, and confirmation e-mails from places I have applied to jobs for, including some that I had hoped to apply to again someday.

Sex and death - what’s the connection?
One of the most problematic pornographic associations of all is the persistent linking of sex with death and the increasingly common linking of sex to killing.
Long but absolutely fascinating read.

The Angry Rich - Paul Krugman →
underpaidgenius:
Craziness has gone mainstream. It’s one thing when a billionaire rants at a dinner event. It’s another when Forbes magazine runs a cover story alleging that the president of the United States is deliberately trying to bring America down as part of his Kenyan, “anticolonialist” agenda, that “the U.S. is being ruled according to the dreams of a Luo tribesman of the 1950s.” When...

Your dad REALLY looks like Paul Rudd. This is probably not news to you. Still. LOOK AT EM.

From this evening’s NBC Nightly News:
For the first time women outnumber men in both the workplace (as men have been hit disproportionately hard by lay-offs) and at the nation’s universities as students. The wage gap between men and women is at an all-time low; women now make a record eighty-three cents for every dollar a man makes. White females have...

Y’all realize that not all atheists are smug, and don’t need to be hated-on as a group, right? (Yes, of course, I know.)
Because one way to really unnerve people is to speak in generalities and lump everyone into a category and blah blah blah.
God, if I had a penny for every self-righteous thing a Christian or a Jew has said to me.
I’m an atheist, proud of it, and...

abloodymess asked: I am with you on this one. On a slight aside.... When I posted my thing about annoying parents vs. annoying cat ladies/men, I mainly posted it because two "friends" on facebook would for about a months time constantly post videos/photos of their damn cats. Every status was about these damn cats. It was maddening. I was honestly surprised that people sided with the cats over the kids.
