Extremely creepy ad for men's pants (from 1970-ish)
That's horrifying on several levels. The misogyny, the overt bestiality, and the animal cruelty.
That's insane troll logic!

I was distracted by the "turret's syndrome" side effect....
and bleeding from the eyeballs. I get that a lot anyway, so.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, this is bad....
I am stunned that this t-shirt could be proudly displayed anywhere anymore.
Now get this: the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is running an online poll that is asking, "What do you think of the Obama t-shirt?", with two choices: "It's racist" and "it's fine". You might be wondering why the newspaper would even have to ask…but here's the kicker.
"It's fine" is winning.
Do you think maybe we can shift the balance there? Or should we just let this indictment of Georgia's racism stand?
eta: I went and voted - "it's racist" is now winning.
And we all know how scientific online polls are anyway....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I thought it was bad, and then I saw the picture. Gah.
OMG.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I went and voted - "it's racist" is now winning.
Me too. Unfortunately there isn't an option to vote for "WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE??"

DIY electronics project: The Sanity Nullifier
Here is another fun way to irritate & annoy people. This time the noisemaker uses an ATtiny2313 to generate random noises. The website has all the code & schematics so you can build your own Sanity Nullifier.
The device beeps a short beep of a very annoying frequency in random times. The time between beeps is anywhere within half an hour to nine hours.
eta:
The subject of your devious device has a flat/house. Put the beeper inside the house, and when the first beep occurs, your victim will just wonder about that what was it. When it occurs again and again he will try to locate the source. After checking all cellphones, smokealarms, battery powered devices in general he will be clueless as to what is causing this. The beeping will be a mystery as long as the battery lives. Or it will drive him nuts.

In non-upsetting news, when I walked by my neighbor this morning (I think he works nights, so we often pass each other on the street in the mornings), he asked for my autograph. I think by that he meant that I look good today? I was a little confused, but am assuming it was a compliment.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
he asked for my autograph.
He's another identity thief.
