Top 10 Ways to Destroy Earth. Chock full of interesting sci-fi ideas, some of them quite imaginative. No Death Star style planet destroyer, though, which is disappointing. Also, I hadn't realized neutonium was an actual element, but according to them it is.
Vin Diesel Fact Genetator. It's funny cuz it's not true, he sure is a busy and talented man.

Something that occured to me in a sleep deprived state that seemed profound at the time: is it a coincidence that "God' and 'Devil' are one letter off from 'good' and 'evil,' respectively?

You are a Toenail.


(Taken from Ebaumsworld.com)

Okay, maybe you're not THAT gross. But yes. You are a toenail. You usually get in the way of peoples' lives and are annoying at times, but people hang out with you because you are amusing. You enjoy acting retarded in front of large crowds of people. Many may call you a dork and a loser, but the truth is that you are very intelligent, and this will be proven in the near future. You are dependent on your friends, but you are not willing to conform into society's stereotypical mold. You may be called a loser, but at least you aren't a nobody. Even the opposite sex finds your uniqueness attractive. You stand out, and that's what makes you special. Even if people leave you hanging.

Most compatible with: Hoe.

Man, 2006 is going to be the Year of the Nerd. At long last they'll be making a live action Transformers movie. If it's half as good as the X-Men movies I will be quite pleased. I gotta say I admire the courage the directors and producers have in even trying to make comic books into movies. Nerds are the most picky and hardest to please demographic known to man, and with their ability to point out every single thing they find wrong with anything they are a force to be reckoned with. Thankfully the video game industry has nerd sedative ready to be released next year should the Marvel movies not live up to their potential. A Star Trek MMORPG, if people die of thirst playing Everquest, imagine how many deaths will be attributed to this game. At least they'll die happy...

Just the other day I was wondering how alien can an idea really be. I mean there are bunches of ideas and beliefs I don't agree with but I can at least understand where they are coming from. I then came across this. The title is amusing but that ends as soon as you realize they're perfectly serious. The thing that really got me though is that they use the word 'tolerant' as an insult. That's about as alien as an idea can get for me. Thankfully I'll be leaving for that oh so terrible country soon enough. Hey I might get smited but at least none of those fundies will be following me there.

Hi everybody! (hi Dr. Nick!)
After much heming and hawing I've decided to create my own blog. I plan to post random thoughts that happen to pop into my head, but I also intend to use it as a journal. Don't worry, I'm not going to go all emo livejournal on you. Oh, expect links to the myriad unusual sites I get sent, it'll be a hoot. Here's a good example: Red Meat. A comic as disturbing as it is hilarious.
