Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."

Most "Facebook is teh evulz" news is from elitist idiots who like to think they're better than the people who actually use the site, but that is well and truly dumb.
I didn't have a Facebook account until late last year though, so meh.
I have a facebook account, but I honestly think it's a waste of time. All the advertisments are annoying, and it doesn't make it any easier to contact my friends when I could just send them an e-mail or call them anyway. Doesn't really give me anything useful.
Central Avenue, I wonder if judges ever hang out together outside of work.
I hear that the Justices of the Supreme Court go to the opera and have birthday parties together and stuff like that. Supposedly, Justice Scalia is the one who sings "Happy Birthday to You" at the aforementioned parties.
Also, props to Imipolex G for making Secret of the Squid. Chances are I will not finish it anytime soon (because I am terrible at games), but I think the level design has been pretty creative and I am a fan of the music choices.
Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, after a screed he posted against the "men's rights" movement in 3/11 went viral, in which he essentially said that he agreed with them on every point, but they should "man up" and stop complaining, because women get special treatment for the same reason as the mentally disabled. It didn't help him when he deleted it, or when he was exposed for defending himself with sock puppets, and it really didn't help when he posted an article a few months later saying that a number of "men behaving badly" stories in the news was due to society suppressing male nature - including the rape allegations against Dominique Strauss-Kahn and Julian Assange. He fairly clearly condemns rape, but the juxtaposition was enough for some, as well as his assertion that female urges were "encouraged."
My irrational hatred of Dilbert somehow now seems less irrational.
If it is morally fine to sell the heads of Alligator hatchlings in Florida as keychains, it should be morally fine to sell the heads of human babies as keychains in Florida.
Lazuli, hatred of Dilbert is not irrational. It's a poorly written, formulaic, cynical waste of newspaper space.
I liked Dilbert once...I also happened to be 19 and a huge, naïve geek at the time. Well, okay, the strip's high point was the mid-1990s, and that's still good, I suppose, but I haven't followed it in years, and there's been so many decent work-coms on TV since that I get the feeling it's been kind of left behind.

Life is literally the longest thing you will ever experience, depending on what your religious beliefs say about the afterlife.
