Hunters and Shooters Club: Crazy Bullshit
I have a weird relationship with the NRA. They occasionally offer the life membership option at a discount for $300. I would give $300 for a life membership to the NRA. The price used to be $700ish for a long time, now it’s up to $1000. My parents gave my brother the discounted membership option, [...]

I just heard there was going to be a Get Smart movie from the guys at work.

Smash Brothers and Slanty Stuff
If you’re interested in Media Bias or wonder what the other side of the story is, Skewz.com recently made slashdot. It’s worth a read and I don’t see any obvious trolling on it. It does use static links for articles, so any idiot with a perl script could game it given enough motivation. Your mileage [...]
