Caution: Immature Content And Naughty Words Will Follow

Before one of my classes began today, I asked the few students that had already wandered into the classroom how they felt about revising their most recent paper. It was due today, and most of them answered wearily that the process went okay. They have been working on the paper for over a week, so […]

Gay? or Manly? You Be The Judge

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it ironic that many of the so-called “manly” activities are extremely homoerotic? I was just reading this blog article about Kevin Federline’s recent appearance on WWE, and the blogger noted that professional wrestling is only slightly less homoerotic than two gay men having sex. I have […]

Meth Addicts Ruin Everything

I think I’ve already bitched about Texas’s idiotic decision to place all medicines containing pseudoephedrine behind the counter at the drugstore. This pisses me off. They do this under the mistaken assumption that by making medications that contain pseudoephedrine difficult to obtain that the number of people who buy them for the nefarious purpose of […]

The Media Should Be Ashamed

Really”¦just grow up people. Act your damn age. The priest jokes were funny for about ten minutes, but now they just display an […]

There But For The Grace Of God…

This is a video of a lecture by Howard J. Hall, a professor in the business school of Florida University. Oh, excuse me, former professor, because as you’ll see in that video the good prof was apparently smoking the reefer before classes. I’m not sure if the guy is actually stoned or not, but it’s […]

Screech’s Adult Movie: Or, How I Learned To Stop Retching And Close My Eyes

Celebrity news doesn’t really interest me, unless of course it’s bad celebrity news. Then I’m all over it. I’m not sure if this qualifies as bad news or not, but Dustin Diamond, he who played “Screech” on the insufferably saccharine “Saved By The Bell,” is starring in a soon-to-be released porno. Yeah. Let that sink […]

If You Can’t Dazzle Them With Bullshit Confuse Them With Lies

Bullshit vs lying””is there a difference? According to Wikipedia, Philosopher Harry Frankfurt of Princeton University characterizes bullshit as a form of falsehood distinct from lying. The liar, Frankfurt holds, knows and cares about the truth, but deliberately sets out to mislead instead of telling the truth. The bullshitter, on the other hand, does not care […]

Dude, Don’t Fear The Reaper!

Can we please all calm down about the spinach? Geez. Americans are the biggest group of alarmist nitwits on the damn planet. Only three people have died. THREE! One of the three was seventy-something, the other was an infant, and I think the last one actually choked to death because the spinach clogged up his […]
