trailer park boys

Ricky: Why aren't you watchin' the dope plants, you asshole?
Julian: Calm down, Ricky, I'm just grabbin' some take-out.
Ricky: Take-out, my ass. Look's to me like you're on a date with cinnamon roll fuckin' head!

--------------------------------------

Ricky: Why bother with a couple shit sticks when you could have the whole shit trolley, Mr Lahey?
Mr Lahey: Nice shit analogy, Rick.

perpetual motion

When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is dropped, it always lands buttered side down.

Therefore, if a slice of toast is strapped to a cat's back, buttered side up, and the animal is then dropped, the two opposing forces will cause it to hover, spinning inches above the ground.

If enough toast-laden felines were used, they could form the basis of a high-speed monorail system.

(can't take credit for this, it's from everything2)

ULO

the modern dis-education system

I've been reading this today.

"The second document, the gigantic Behavioral Science Teacher Education Project, outlined teaching reforms to be forced on the country after 1967. If you ever want to hunt this thing down, it bears the U.S. Office of Education Contract Number OEC-0-9-320424-4042 (B10). The document sets out clearly the intentions of its creators—nothing less than "impersonal manipulation" through schooling of a future America in which "few will be able to maintain control over their opinions," an America in which "each individual receives at birth a multi-purpose identification number" which enables employers and other controllers to keep track of underlings and to expose them to direct or subliminal influence when necessary. Readers learned that "chemical experimentation" on minors would be normal procedure in this post-1967 world, a pointed foreshadowing of the massive Ritalin interventions which now accompany the practice of forced schooling."

It's pretty scary stuff.

--- 9:00pm ---

here's some more.

Another major architect of standardized testing, H.H. Goddard, said in his book Human Efficiency (1920) that government schooling was about "the perfect organization of the hive." He said standardized testing was a way to make lower classes recognize their own inferiority. Like wearing a dunce cap, it would discourage them from breeding and having ambition. Goddard was head of the Psychology Department at Princeton, so imagine the effect he had on the minds of the doctoral candidates he coached, and there were hundreds.

this was posted on fark today...

Four students spend three day weekend riding "every inch" of San Francisco's bus system while one guy's girlfriend delivered them burritos.

Sounds pretty innocent, right? Read it again.

Four students spend three day weekend riding "every inch" of San Francisco's bus system while one guy's girlfriend delivered them burritos.

This sentence gets dirtier and dirtier every time it's read.

dialup users of the world: i shun thee.

differences #1

There are a number of differences between Ontario and Alberta that I've noticed since coming. I'm planning to do a full list and post it for the benefit of others who may be moving here.

For the time being, I'll introduce one of them...

See, in Ontario you can be a debit-card-swiping alcoholic and not feel too bad about yourself. As you look over your bank statement at the end of the month and see numerous entries for the LCBO, you can pretend you were picking up some wine or champagne because you're just a classy guy...

In Alberta, though, retail liquor is privatized. There's just no kidding yourself when you have an entry like this:

7 Sep 2004 	 -LIQUOR BARN 	 19.24

At least it was only $20.

*sigh*...fucking MS...

Microsoft once again has proven that it's on the cutting edge of computer technology. This is a company who has released exploitable code that no one previously thought possible. How do you fuckup an image library, MS? How do you break this new ground?

flat tire

so the guys just headed off to the airport to fly back to toronto. they left a little later than expected, though, and i hope they make it in time.

they were parked at the scotia centre parkade briefly as we went to Q9 to say goodbye to the guys there. when we got back to the parkade, the rental car had a flat tire, so we had to throw the donut on it. it'll be interesting to see how much Budget charges dahil for that.

i am the ignored OS

You are OS2-Warp. You're plagued by feelings of abandonment and disgust for your backstabbing step-brother.  Oh, what might have been.
Which OS are You?

what in the FUCK?

So I'm reading a list of things that guys wish girls knew about guys/advice for girls about guys on Everything2.

A lot of them are good. Take number 7, for example...
"7. Don't go into detail about your period. It scares us."

This is true.

How about number 9?
"9. If you really liked us for us, you would let us think that our mustache, beard, or sideburns looked cool."

Again, reasonable advice for girls about guys.

Now what in the FUCK is number 20???
"20. Never kick us in the nuts "just to see what we would say.""

Does this happen?? Is this really a problem? Guys, has this happened to you? Girls, do you do this???

ontarians are suckers

Dear Alberta,

I love you.

An excerpt from a pamphlet that came in the mail today outlining changes to Alberta's auto insurance that become effective Oct 1, 2004.

Your premium is based on the number of years you've been licensed (in Alberta or elsewhere), rather than insured. This means that people who have been living outside Alberta will not be classified as new drivers, as long as they can prove they were licensed in another jurisdiction.
