Okay, seriously. What in the actual fuck, folks?

I teach English at the college level; last year, I was privileged to teach ENG 230, which at my institution is a rotating (through the faculty) course that is generously labeled "Special Topics in Literature."

I taught my course, for two semesters, as "Gaming: Literary…

Cole: My tooth fell out, doc. Ya gotta help!

This piece of medi-tech. I only received it once when I was a kid. It was replaced by the much less terrifying syringe test. It's a 4-pronged TB test. It was like my doctor was stabbing me with corn holders.

IO9 is mostly about fantasy, sci-fi, science and technology. If you don't like the science part, just skip the articles dealing with science.

Living in St. Louis but being a bit of a Cards hater, I'd like to see a STL v. KC World Series. But an all Missouri World Series? I imagine that would set an all time record low for World Series television ratings.

I like how many stories of 19th century scientists contain "and they lost an eye". I imagine even pirates had fewer eyepatches than a gaggle of 19th century scientists.

Wait a second...I thought this was going to be a great post from a long-suffering fan until I got to the "lived in Baltimore, loved the O's, lived in NYC, loved the Yanks," part. If you did that, then I am not happy for you at all. You have not suffered, you've just rooted for other teams during the period where…

Inspired by the amazing Yma Sumac.

For those who are interested in what the human voice can do and may not have heard of Yma Sumac, herewith. Pay particular attention to the double trill at 2:49.

The toxicology report also noted his 0.218 put him single-handedly ahead of the Jaguars in the race for the AFC South crown.

I will miss Rob Beeronas. This is a good response.

I'm calling it now. We've just discovered the secret plot behind True Detective season 2.

1) Being from the Midwest is not a race. 2) Drew is from the Midwest. 3) How insecure of your beliefs and likes do you have to be to go to bat for an entire region of the country?

Hey jerk face, don't you DARE criticize Red Penis. He's a Hall of Famer and has spent more than 50 years in the Cardinals organization.

As someone who spent their first 26 years of like in Missouri and is a lifelong Cardinals fan, I highly support this message. Francis Slay is an embarrassment, and I have no idea on God's green earth why he keeps putting out these dumb press releases whenever someone as much as steps on the heel of the Cardinals…

See, what we're really missing here is the vaccine truther (IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK, GIVE ME A SECOND!).

Inexplicable road rage? Burning engine oil? I'm definitely going with doppelganger from the Black Lodge.

I can understand why he was so angry. That burning smell? Some kids shoved tennis shoes in his exhaust pipe and he was able to remove the shoes, but he couldn't get the laces out.
