Sometimes You Need A Good Laugh

This one gave it to me today. I needed it after my entire AP Chem class indirectly admitted their inability to interpret graphs by making up really dumb answers to a really easy question. Fucking retards.

Badasssssss!!

How can I ever stay in a hotel room and not look behind every wall decoration after seeing this?

The scuttlebutt is that Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age is a contributing artist. Too bad I'm missing their show this weekend because of that god-damned George W. Bush and his evil hurricane spawn. If he'd only have signed the Kyoto treaty I could be rocking my fuckin' arse off this weekend! Dumb bastard!

Yay for the Internet!

Another pointless quiz! Oh, the wonders of technology!

Social Liberal

He really is Superman!

And here's the picture to prove it!

Call me Mr. Insensitive

I like to think that I'm pretty respectful of people and their religion(s). From previous experience and conversations with friends of religious backgrounds I feel like I know a decent amount about some of them, especially with respect to religious holidays. But the note from the principal recently is a little over the edge.
If a student is absent on Oct. 13th and brings in a note for the absence to be excused for this religious reason, please meet with the student on Monday and mutually agree on a makeup time without making the student feel "guilty" or that the makeup test is "a pain for you to schedule" (this should not happen for any excused absence). Follow excused makeup guidelines that are published in the student handbook; one day for each day absent plus one. If Oct. 13 is the only day absent, the work should be madeup by the end of the day Tuesday. As the teacher, I allow you the flexibility to extend the time if you wish.

WTF? I'm not allowed to be inconvenienced? Not that I was, but it's allowable to issue a mandate stating that I must not be annoyed by the inconvenience of rescheduling a previously scheduled event?

I was preemptive and I made a note to not test on Thursday, but that made a Monday test (which I hate) and everyone had known about it for seven days!

Tell me not to be inconvenienced. Pshah!

Sh!t Fu(k

To you, sir. Go back to the Dallas Cowboys. We don't need your micro-management play calling from the sidelines anymore. We certainly don't need your uncreative plays. And we most definitely don't need your absolutely God-awful clock management skills. Who the hell gives the other team's defense a chance to regroup on the 2 yard line with 28 seconds remaining by calling a timeout on 1st down when you've got momentum on your side? Teach your quarterback some discipline and teach him how to make a few play calls on his own in short time situations. Who's the team leader? I don't see you in a uniform.

And to you, mister. I don't know what you need to snap out of this dry spell, but holy crap man! 0 for 5 in your last 5 attempts?! Missing two 20-yard chip shots? I'm not saying I could do it but I also don't get a scholarship to do it! Last night, I wanted to cut your leg off and give it to NC State as a trophy. Pull it together, man. And God have mercy on you if you're shaving points.

In the meantime, I put a jihad on both of you.
