[...] Really, you probably need to read through this entire comment thread to comprehend the full humor value of the below #gunblogger_conspiracy transcript, but, if you are unwilling to wade through an unending stream of Chris condescendingly self-fellating, you will have to take my word that this… [...] If you have ever done any serious digging into various forms and types of inventions throughout history, this is especially funny because it is true. For a slightly more in-depth examination of the phenomena, I recommend Connections [...] So this search string showed up in my referer logs yesterday: Well, the first step is to give all that money to me… Seriously? People actually search for things like that? Are we not teaching basic economics and money management in middle school… [...] Speaking of coincidental crossovers between a particularly well-endowed land cannon and a particularly short-fuzed mini-lop, behold. There are certainly few more-fitting tributes to a murderous, switchblade-equipped rabbit than naming it after a county-destroying supertank featured in a rather good science fiction story [...] Speaking of, the words are not exactly the same, but I swear someone woke me up on one of my ships once with a spiel like this. My reaction was somewhat similar. [...] On the way to work this morning: A Pious was tap-tap-tapping its brakes all the way down a highway off-ramp. Apparently the concept of regenerative braking is lost on some people… even those who should know better. [...] This, right here, is easily the funniest post of the month. I would love to claim some manner of malicious attempt at subterfuge in using a MagPul box to send the book on its way, but it was more of a, “Gorram it, the Post Office is closed, and… [...] This is, quite possibly, the best idea regarding soccer ever:
It gets even better if you… [...] And with this quote from his Claws That Catch
… [...] And this, right here, is the sole reason why the United States Navy never bothered pursuing supercavitation technology to any great extent:
… [...] Do not lie. This kept you up at night as a kid, too… [...] Speaking of cars, who knew that the folks producing Porsches these days were such pansy-assed wusses? Well, now, everyone does. [...] To an average person, a ship name of HMS Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy is just an administrative hiccup that can be cured with a few applications of the “Backspace” key, and a momentary glimmer of something approximating imagination. For those of us who have plied the… [...] I knew there was a reason I (re-)started reading Pearls Before Swine. [...] We now have multicultural domain names. Ok. Great. Now how the hell am I supposed to type that in? [...] Despite Chrome being an annoying, piece-of-crap browser that does not do what it is told to do, these videos are kinda cool. Rigged, but cool.

Of course, if you are aware of a zombie, you should probably go ahead and separate its brain from its body, and then worry about spreading the good word, but that is… [...] An armed society is a zombie-free society. Stupid laboratory – you should not have to go to your truck for a firearm… [...] A bumper sticker proclaiming, “Vegetarians taste better”.
