Many think we are living in a golden age of bullshit. That public discourse has never been gaudier or more demeaning. That respect for truth and decency has reached all-time lows. The mental pygmies that hold these opinions don't read or think for themselves. Deceiving ourselves and others is the one thing our species excels … Continue reading Informed Naked Ape Protocol

Corporate Social Media Policies
You probably work for a company that has a corporate social media policy (CSMP). I'm betting that your CSMP's preamble starts with words like, "we would never restrict the free speech rights of employees but blah, blah, blah, ... It's what follows the "but" that matters. For example my employer does not want anything I … Continue reading Corporate Social Media Policies
Brett Kimblerlin Free Speech Hating Criminal SOS
Today I’m joining a free speech blogburst in support of bloggers harassed and threatened by Brett Kimberlin (SOS) and his butt monkeys. Brett has a problem with people pointing out his bomb detonating criminal terrorist past, but unlike your typical effeminate impotent lefty whiner, Brett isn’t going to take any truth-telling lying down. No Brett … Continue reading Brett Kimblerlin Free Speech Hating Criminal SOS
1421: The Crank History of Gavin Menzies
Crank history is big business and it's getting bigger. For reasons that infuriate skeptics there is a never-ending parade of pseudo-historians spouting rubbish that is eagerly devoured by a credulous pig ignorant public. Gavin Menzies' ludicrous tome, 1421: The Year China Discovered America, (also titled 1421: The Year China Discovered the World), is the finest … Continue reading 1421: The Crank History of Gavin Menzies
Debt Dolts Diddle and Drone!
Government Fiscal Policy Well well it turns out that when John Boehner isn't crying like a little girl he can deliver a speech. Tonight he smoked Obama like a fine cigar. I tried to flip around Obama's debt limit rant but ended up watching like a gawker at a hospital fire. Any dolt with a fifth graders … Continue reading Debt Dolts Diddle and Drone!
I did not have sex with that Oil Spill!
I would like to thank BP for accidently creating a teachable moment for our political class. Prior to the gulf cluster-fuck the most ethical congress in history did not know that fluid dynamics is one of the hardest of the hard sciences. But, after two months of heroic attempts to contain the spill with blame games, … Continue reading I did not have sex with that Oil Spill!
Everybody Abandon Facebook Day
Yesterday was the first ever Everybody Draw Mohammed Day. My favorite Everybody Draw Mohammed cartoon is shown below. Da Glory-ass Koran For the troglodytes among us Everybody Draw Mohammed Day was a sarcastic reaction to years of bullying, death threats and fatwas issued against cartoonists for the horrible crime of drawing caricatures of Mohammed. The … Continue reading Everybody Abandon Facebook Day
Honing my Powers of Indifference
For years I thought it was rude to ignore people now I glory in it. In our overly social networked age it is vital to hone your powers of indifference. We cannot care about everyone or everything and we shouldn’t even try. Here are some people and issues I am ignoring. Gay Marriage: Gay marriage is not … Continue reading Honing my Powers of Indifference
2012 Business Opportunity
Are you an unscrupulous deranged crank with the track record of a government budget forecaster? Do you have no shame and assume everyone around you is an inbred moron? Can you say one thing one day and the opposite the next and see no contradiction? Do you consider “evidence” to be shit that you make … Continue reading 2012 Business Opportunity
Counting Gods
How many fingers do you need to count gods? If you are like most people you simply assume the set of gods is enumerable and then you start fighting over which value in the set of positive integers $latex \mathbb{Z}_{\geq0}&bg=cfcdcd$ or $latex {0, 1, 2, 3, \ldots, }&bg=cfcdcd$ is correct. This process is elegantly explained by … Continue reading Counting Gods
