One hallmark of multiculturalism is the rejection of any sort of assimilation, often times even when said assimilation would be for one’s own benefit. Take, for instance, the family of four who recently got cochlear implants to help with their deafness. Some people — normal people — would approve, be happy for them, and move [...]

It seems that congratulations are in order…the little sister, Ara, is graduating from 8th Grade tonight. The brother is graduating from High School tomorrow night, even though he is wasting his diploma by attending a loathed institution like the University of Tennesuck… erm… Tennessee. Anyway… congratulations to them… this is the one time it’s a pity [...]
Bored? Want to laugh? I direct you, then, to the SomethingAwful forums where you can see pages upon pages of comedic gold: A Safety Message From Your USPS Letter Carrier. Grab a drink, and enjoy. (Only drink between pages, though, I’m not responsible if you shoot scalding coffee from your nose and onto your keyboard.)

You know, you’re just standing there (in your dream) minding your own business, only to look down and find that everyone else is minding your business as well. I had my doubts about this phenomenon and its perceived prevalence until last night, [...]
As if there weren’t enough, right? Bunch of freakin’ idiots, they are. Anyhow, here’s an interesting quote from some loony french politician: (from Dissident Frogman, via LGF) I have no hesitation in saying that we must consider giving the Arab side a large enough force, including a large enough nuclear force, to persuade Israel that it [...]

Article here. Choice quotes: I am honored to be here and to receive this honorary doctorate. When [...]
I didn’t do much this past weekend (surprise). I did, however, get a chance to see Shrek 2. Good movie. I’m not sure if I like it better than the first one, but it is good. Any true geek will appreciate the nods to other movies, events, etc… I was quite fond of the Lord [...]
Disclaimer: this post isn’t about you. So over the past few months I’ve heard several (and I mean SEVERAL) stories of people (both guys and girls) taking their boyfriends/girlfriends/fiances/etc back after having been cheated on, repeatedly lied to, or worse. The question on my mind every time I hear a story like this is: “What in the [...]
