Well, that explains why politics in the US sucks....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
My mother had botox for nerve damage in her shoulder that she sustained during a car accident, but ultimately the only thing that entirely removed the pain was surgery. And a rotator cuff injury is about 1000x simpler to diagnose & treat than migraine.

Heh, I never thought of that line as a slacker manifesto.

Move over tattoos: implantable LEDs light up your skin
Tattoos have been around for ages. They're fine, but where's the innovation? It's been a while since we've seen some big steps forward in the world of body decorations. But hell, flexible, implantable LEDs? Yeah, that's something new.
The LED arrays were developed by John Rogers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and they can twist and stretch by as much as 75%. Coated in thin silicon rubber, they're also waterproof and safe to implant under the skin. That means that you could, in theory, spell out your name in flashing lights under the skin of your back. I'd like to see a traditional tattoo do that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yeah, try to evade the police with one of THOSE.
