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 just stupid:

First human 'infected with computer virus'

A British scientist says he is the first man in the world to become infected with a computer virus.

Dr Mark Gasson from the University of Reading contaminated a computer chip which was then inserted into his hand.

The device, which enables him to pass through security doors and activate his mobile phone, is a sophisticated version of ID chips used to tag pets.

In trials, Dr Gasson showed that the chip was able to pass on the computer virus to external control systems.

...

Dr Gasson admits that the test is a proof of principle but he thinks it has important implications for a future where medical devices such as pacemakers and cochlear implants become more sophisticated, and risk being contaminated by other human implants.

Always Anti-fascist!

Yeah, Lisah, first time heard it, I hated it, than it became catchy, then I was earwormed for a week.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I checked Wikipedia to make sure he wasn't exaggerating or something.

He wasn't. Damn.

Ten monkey attack videos

I only watched a few of these. Can any Buffista critique the monkey's Taekwondo technique in #10?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Maybe the Kung Fu Bear can take out the Taekwondo Monkey.

Because The Boy and I are often a-social losers, one Friday night we were reading some article online that was a slideshow of the most fucked-up animals, and the anglerfish was included. We have since incorporated references to the anglerfish into as many conversations as possible.

Me: "Why are you hugging me like a leech?"
Him: "I want to be your anglerfish!"
Me: "I do not want to wear your gonads! Get away!"

t edit You can perhaps see that we're not so much a-social as it is that our behavior makes people avoid us. Rightly so.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I almost always have a song stuck in my head, with varying levels of time and annoyance.

Me too.

It really is the kind of mating ritual that makes the planet Koozebane seem plausible.
