Stank

Venture Free — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 00:31:01 +0000

So I’m lying in bed Saturday night watching cartoons. I hadn’t showered since Friday morning, but since I was at home and didn’t plan on going anywhere, I didn’t give it much thought. The wife meanwhile was laying beside me in bed with a computer in her lap, playing on Facebook as usual.

For no real reason I began to feel a bit randy (maybe it was the sexy pirate pictures of herself that she was posting). I was just about to turn to my wife and ask if she wanted to have sex when she says “Whew! Man, your balls kinda stink. I can smell ‘em all the way over here.”

Being the quick thinking, smooth talking ladies man that I am, I didn’t even miss a beat.

“Wanna mix your stank with mine?”

Between the laughter and the gagging, I eventually figured out that the answer was no.

I highly recommend that you go see District 9 because it really is a very good movie. But if you can’t then this video will at least give you the highlights.

I’ve never heard this song myself, but by the sounds of it I didn’t miss out on much.

A website dedicated to the hardworking men and…uh…other men who dedicate their Decembers to bringing joy (or something anyway) to kids everywhere.

Texas Bans Marriage

Venture Free — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 20:08:37 +0000

Apparently, in their zeal to ban gay marriage, Texas may have overshot a little and banned all marriage. The line in their state constitution (added in 2005) causing problems is this one: “This state or a political subdivision of this state may not create or recognize any legal status identical or similar to marriage.” One way to look at it, and apparently a valid legal view, is to say that marriage is identical to marriage and therefore the state of Texas may not recognize it as a valid legal status.

At first blush I thought, you know, that’s one of those little snafu’s that is likely to simply be ignored. Yeah, technically marriage isn’t recognized in the state of Texas any longer. However, no one is likely to pursue that, and so even if it remains unchanged in the constitution it’s not likely to have any real effect.

But as I thought about it more I realized that it’s actually likely to come up at some point or other. The most likely avenue for a challenge to this amendment will be in the case of a divorce. Some lawyer somewhere is going to recognize that it will be a lot easier and more profitable, both for them and their client, to simply argue that the couple was never technically married at all. In that case, I’m not so sure that it won’t have to be upheld. Logically it’s a bit silly, but legal has never necessarily equaled logical.

History Is Written…

I absolutely love this story from the Onion. What would an alternate history of an alternate history look like? What would the world look like if the Axis had won the war? And then what would their world look like if the Allies had won the war? It’s like doing a literal translation of a phrase into another language and then doing another literal translation back into the original.

Since history is written by the winners, the Axis would be considered the good guys, and the Allies would be the enemies. How evil would the world be if the enemies had won?
