Hey, I'm just typing from a book. The book even says you don't have to, and you won't be a dick for not tipping. It's a good way to show you appreciate the work. Tip him a $50, or something, $150 is fucking ridiculous.

RationalWiki rocks my damn socks.

Going through the right parts of the site is like having Shadzar or npc310 on tap, so you can read them for the lulz.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

--The horror of Mario

I'm convinced that shadzar is an automated trolling bot that constructs posts by sampling other posts. It explains the poor content, grammar, and sentence structure.

For those who don't have a super model's breasts to pour their liquor on, there's G-Spirits! They do the pouring for you!

The above website is really not work safe as it has lots and lots and lots of boobies on it. There's even a very not work safe video with more boobies in it.

http://www.walmart.com/
(to watch the shopping cart animation fill with urine-snowflakes)

http://sitedown.co/walmart
I paged through complaints until I came upon the likely reason that Wal-Mart's site is down. Someone complained that the site is not secure due to that they noticed other people's credit card info on their online order. Oops... looks like it has been having problems for several days running now. Ouch.

http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/cienc ... aurs01.htm

I was looking for good resources on various stats for what life would be like on a planet with about 80% earth gravity and ran into this gem. I just... it's so
Goddamn.

It would be a disservice to pick out individual things wrong with it since there's hardly a blessed thing right.

It caused me to reminisce of an instance when I and others argued in favor of a wave theory of smells (complete with doppler shift, anti-smells and such) on our college message board. I wish I'd saved that shit.

Anywho, it looks like that site is a treasure trove of crazy.

"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

oops, hit post too soon.

I am filled with the urge to rebrand my family's RAV4 into something cooler. If it were green I'd go ninja turtle what with the tire shell on the back. The kids would love it forever.

Every country's top porn search terms for the past six months: http://www.pornmd.com/sex-search (That page is worksafe but the web domain isn't.)

Most countries seem to like porn from their own country: Germans like German porn, Nigerians like Nigerian porn, Koreans like Korean porn, etc. The two notable exceptions I can find are Ukraine and Austria, which have "Russian" and "German" as their #1 search terms respectively. Perhaps the Anschluss is closer than we think.

Rather touchingly, South Africa includes "beautiful" as one of their most common search terms. Other nations may be into huge penii or multiple insertions or unusual orifices, but South Africans prefer to look at pictures of pretty people.

It's always weird when pornmd spits out something crazy specific like "mature hairy creampie" for certain countries. Makes you wonder if it isn't being weighted by one obsessive fetishist.

I love how Venezula has "ariel AND fart" in the top ten, and the swedes are so nationalistic that not only is Swedish number 1, but Sweden is number 5.

I'd say the same about Norway having Norwegian 1 and Norway 2, but who doesn't want to see a sexy porn of Norway banging other countries.
