I thank the Universe for the gift of Dolly.

There are so many good, professional photos of Low Library and the Alma Mater, but it looks like.. did you guys send a photographer to the campus and take that picture today, just for this story?

Unfortunately, the only thing that will change the minds of some people is an unfavorable personal encounter with the police which they so effusively praise. They really have to experience it before they will believe it.

I can tell you with absolute 100% certainty that no one, not even the Pope, is going to be Raptured. Because it's not a thing which is real, or will ever be real.

I love when movie trailers effectively show the entire movie, so I don't have to waste my time watching them.

I'm not condemning every practitioner of the religion. The religion itself is worthless. You might find ISIS' interpretation of Islam to be an abomination. That's just, like, your opinion, man.

Do you? Because I have as much distaste for the Bible as I do for the Quran.

Taking wives from female captives is repeatedly sanctioned in the Quran.

I have as much sympathy for confused "mujahida" from the West as I do for Christian missionaries who get themselves thrown in jail in shithole countries — which is to say, none.

There's nothing worse than a surprise Lemon party.

A little annoyed that all the cat-callers in this video are black men.

Methinks Megan Fox is smarter than pop media credit her, and likes to troll them.

I credit that series with teaching tweenage-me what a tesseract and mitochondria are. (Also with giving me nuclear armageddon nightmares.)

Hey, look, it's a group of credulous idiots.

"It's... it's kind of like a dementor."

I believe you are correct, that Google was scanning for child pornography signatures. My concern isn't what they were scanning for, it is that they were scanning at all; they can potentially scan for anything they like.

I agree that many, if not most, people don't think about that — and that is a tragedy to me, especially since consumer encryption technology has been around since the early 90s — and went through a hell of a legal and political fight to keep it legal when it first came out.

Certainly not. But I am not comfortable with them "scanning" my emails at all, and I'm also not comfortable with Google, having "scanned" my emails, then deciding what should be reported.
