    It's much more than a set of lies, it's an entire cultural phenomenon 100% USA made. Unlike many of our worst ideas, I'm actually surprised this one didn't become more popular arou…

    It certainly shouldn't require masses of blank eyed fans all making highly emotional pleads to protect the sensitivity of their favorite logo. That's gross even by Microsoft standa…

    That's a surprisingly underused plot for a sci Fi horror film. Considering the grand total of experiments we've ran on the little guys, I'm kinda surprised we haven't bred Mousezil…

    The biggest threat to a future society worth living in, is not the evil ones among us. Those are usually pretty visible and in the minority. It's the complacent ones we have to kee…
