Fox News is Racist

I would like to state that who ever designed the widget interface in WordPress 2.5 is a complete moron. A retarded monkey could have done better. Gone are the days where you just drag and drop widgets...

Bush Censorship

Bush continues to be a shining light for democracy and freedom. Now he's censoring information about abortion on health websites. It never ceases to amaze me how religious this moron is and is so agai...

Partial Post Feeds

I really hate websites that only offer a part of their post in their feed. I know why they do this. They do this so you have to visit their site in order to read the rest of the story. The more visito...

You are a Bad Parent

Yes, I'm talking to you. You are a bad parent. You don't discipline your kids, you let them run around and annoy the crap out of everyone, you tell them not to do something only to allow them to do it...

Do You Have the Time?

Sammy Hagar is a Tool

DST Nonsense

So this past weekend was Daylight Savings Time in the US. Many people claimed how happy they were that they got an extra hour of sleep. I say that's BS. I didn't get an extra hour of sleep. The clock...
