PROOF God Exists

Post Humorously

Researching another topic altogether, I came across this startling use of the word posthumously:

Nicholas Schmidle, whose narrative account of the death of Osama bin was completed without ever interviewing any members of SEAL Team 6, posthumously wrote an article entitled “In the Crosshairs’’ in The New Yorker.

Posthumously means “after death.” An article may be published posthumously, but writing one posthumously would be quite a feat.

Absolutely amazing!

The New Congress

They said "NO" for six years. Now, they're saying, "Let's waste time and energy on anything but security, jobs, health care, or basically anything that helps Americans in general. Oh, and let's bring back the dark ages!"

I Thought Kids Were Ditching Facebook

I get it. Facebook pretty much sucks. And primarily because it has been commercialized to the point that everyone and their great-grandparents believe they must have an account lest they miss sharing their pet's first poop... or the latest sale at Wal-mart.

Perhaps I'm easily peeved, but it galls me when a person who has just taken the training wheels off of their thinking cap calls my comment on national news "dumb". Not that they aren't entitled to an opinion on the subject at hand. But calling anyone dumb just shows a profound lack of emotional development.

And, like it or not, I am in a unique position to have informed opinions on national and international debates, whether you agree with them or not. Aside from the fact that I was wiring spaghetti boards (look it up) and coding Cobal and Fortran (again, look it up) before many of your parents were out of diapers, I had the distinct dis-privilege of working around some very unpleasant people in a very dark world where, they say, your right to be an ignorant, privileged, know-it-all prick is protected.

So, if you don't want to be disrespected, don't disrespect me... oh, and don't be stupid.

The Sound Of Thunder

A small boy is woken by a huge crash of thunder. He runs into his parents’ room, where his father comforts him. ‘Don’t be afraid of the thunder,’ he says. ‘It’s just a noise that God makes when someone tells a lie.’ ‘But why is it thundering now?’ asks the boy. ‘It’s the middle of the night and everyone is asleep.’ I know,’ replies father. ‘But it’s around this time that they start to print the newspapers.’

A panda bear walks into a bar

A panda bear walks into a bar and orders a sandwich.

The waiter brings him the sandwich. The panda bear eats it, pulls out a pistol, kills the waiter, and gets up and starts to walk out.

The bartender yells for him to stop.

The panda bear asks, "What do you want?"

The bartender replies, "First you come in here, order food, kill my waiter, then try to go without paying for your food."

The panda bear turns around and says, "Hey! I'm a Panda. Look it up!"

The bartender goes into the back room and looks up panda bear in the encyclopedia, which read: "Panda: a bear-like marsupial originating in Asian regions. Known largely for its stark black and white coloring. Eats shoots and leaves."

Antivax University

Dear Antivaxxers,
The reason you are ridiculed is that you exemplify the Dunning-Kruger effect, which, as put by Daniel R. Hawes, describes the phenomenon whereby “people fail to grasp their own incompetence, precisely because they are so incompetent“. In other words, people who know the least about a subject tend to think they know the most.

Not because there is some kind of conspiracy against you.
