The worst are the runners with earbuds in. You would think they would run in a straight line, but they don't. I have had to lock them up over joggers more than anyone else. I try to give kids a break, because they don't know, but I kinda question a parent busting out the training wheels on a path used by bikers.

Now as for the wrong way riding, sidewalk riding, headphone wearing douchebags that you also see, these bicyclists are assholes, and law breakers on top of everything else.

OOOOK, few things:

I agree with you mostly, but part of the problem is also the speed at which bicyclists often go on certain pathways. Saying "on your left" while weaving in and out of a path crowded with pedestrians misses the point. The bikers should be going slower.

Its sad when you look at graphs like that to think that all those crappy post apocalyptic movies from the 80s are going to turn into real documentaries. Just like how the Detroit from RoboCop seems to be coming true. Now all we need is some military organization to name its infrastructure skynet and...what's that? The…

I don't know why. It's a self correcting problem. We don't even have to do anything. Mother Nature will make the necessary adjustments all by herself. No worries!

There's a general tendency for developing countries to have population explosions as they begin to industrialize, followed by a leveling once the economy has shifted and societies have a chance to adapt (by putting less value on large families and using more contraception, etc). The only question is whether these…

And this is why, as unpopular as this will be to say, GMO's are such an important technology. Yes, I know there are certain companies that are very unpopular right now, but while GM food is in its infancy developmentally, when the bugs are worked out, it will be crucial in helping to prevent mass starvation in third…

idk if this is supposed to be clever or a rip off; then again its the Doll-phins

We haven't even solved the pussy riots yet.

Two birds, one stone: Soylent Green.

Seriously, quit breeding.

Crap - the sun is leaking!

Obviously we all would have expected someone named Incognito to be harder to find.

Right, back to bed.

Sounds like a vicious, mean version of Rudy

... and still a better story than Star Trek Into Darkness.

"Excuse me, Monsieur Candie, I am Dr. Schultz. I am from Berlin and I long for someone to someone to speak my native tongue, German with. Instead of teaching a slave German myself I would like to offer you five hundred dollars for that slave you have there that speaks German. That's more than twice her value."

They've gone away from the shock watch stickers recently. I actually just watched an episode (S10E4, I think) where they were testing how "bomb proof" certain objects were. They use a calibrated piece of foil to simulate lethal and injury thresholds. You are correct, the pressure wave by itself can kill and/or injure…

this one costs a lot less.
