They are not "sons and daughters" any more than the rest of us. They are adults who signed up to maim and kill in return for a paycheck. I'd loose more sleep over DMV employees hav…

Yep I had about the same amount, when they were worth around 7-8$ a coin. Bummer, 40,000$ would be nice right about now.

The majority of personal use sales are not conducted with a "gangster", true, but the small-time college ecstasy or coke dealer conducting those personal use sales IS making regula…

I disagree with the "electronic" part. That disqualifies Charles Babbage's early mechanical computers, not to mention all of biological/chemical computing.

My original comment above was mainly in response to the divergent 2 numbers being clearly bullshit... they're not. I didn't mean to imply any skepticism over the two numbers being …

Here this guy claims to have put on 20 pounds of muscle in 8 weeks, and in another article he claims 34 pounds in 4 weeks. Hmm... I wouldn't invest in anything he was associated wi…

I came here to post the same links to the Minneapolis PD ShotSpotter page. What's more depressing is that nearly all the shootings are concentrated in a few North Minneapolis neigh…

Sure, under an extremely loose definition of "value". What about a billionaire cigarette tycoon, drug lord, or arms dealer? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brad_M._Kelley http://en.wi…

្The /I/ in "hit" and the /i/ in "heat" are two different vowels. When linguists say that a language has minimally contrastive vowel length, they mean that a single vowel can be pr…

Pitbulls are often trained to be mean. They are supremely athletic and strong, so they are the logical choice for fighting dogs, guard dogs, etc. I can't say whether or not there i…

As someone who is a music fanatic, but had never heard Velvet Underground until right now, I find "European Son" quite interesting, but "Heroin" didn't do anything for me. I'll che…

We had a gym teacher named Mr. Bigott who got fired for a racially charged incident, no lie.

I'm not sure what to glean from your comment. Do you already have a family? If not, you should consider not having one in the first place. Your would-be wife and children will be h…

Nope, he got nabbed in Sihanoukville, which is the touristy beach destination in Cambodia. It's a small enough town that all the expats know each other, so I've met many people who…

I live in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. 99% of the time I have no regrets about moving here from the United States. That other 1% of the time when you are sick or require the services of t…

So in Study 2, they do seem to include a non-superfluous apology. Study 4 (the one about the rain, and the topic of the blog post) doesn't have the same controls. Why? I find this …

For the sake of linkbait, surely. Blog author even calls this study "the most compelling evidence", only to correctly recognize that it's total shit in the final paragraph. I'm all…

Whatever girvo did, he did while heroin was illegal. So how does what you said make any sense? Prohibiting substances will never stop users from seeking them out. It will however m…

If a "g" is voiceless, then it's the same as a "k". If we are going by IPA notation, the only distinction between the sound represented by "g" and the sound represented by "k" is v…

This map is of metal bands in general, not just death metal. The site that this data is sourced from, www.metal-archives.com, might be of interest to some non-metalheads. It is an …

The zine archive is excellent, thanks. I may have a few to contribute after I spend some time digging through my files. This site is somehow affiliated with ANUS? It doesn't seem t…

You scored 20 out of 20! Congrats you are... True Kvlt. Either you work at IKEA or you played drums for Bathory, because your knowledge is at the level of dare we say it, the clove…
