FRIDAY #2112

FIRST FIRSTS...

North Korea publishes lengthy report praising own human rights record. Pyongyang's initial response to a UN report on its human rights abuses was anger and outrage. This week, however, it has published a 53,558-word counter-report, described as "a grueling read" by the Washington Post's Adam Taylor, who surely deserves a raise for this.

Remember when I stated that this would be an excellent idea? Publishing what you don't do, then when you are made to do, simply don't tell people you don't.
Now read this...

It's been less than a day since the company published its new, excellent privacy policy -- but Gigaom has noticed that the latest Apple transparency report, covering Jan 1-Jun 30 2014, has eliminated the line that says that the company has received no secret Patriot Act "section 215" requests, which come with gag orders prohibiting companies from discussing them.

Women spend more time thinking about what men are thinking than men actually spend time thinking.


For my friend, Spider...

He was pushed.....PUSHED!!!!

I can only assume that the reason the film stopped as soon as the man escaped being eaten by a shark as a prank, is that he was busy kicking the cameraman's ass.

"Just give me the goddamn pancakes!"

"GIVE ME THE FUCKING PANCAKES.....NOW!!!
...and get that camera out of my face."

Girls complain about guys using them for sex....but sex is awesome! Start bitching when he uses you for laundry...or as a human shield.

An oldie I ran across again and present again...

At the onset, I questioned computer assisted art...

...now I consider it just another tool.

I’m tired of people asking me, “How stupid can you be?” I have yet to determine my ultimate limit.

That guy I mentioned yesterday who was getting married told a story about how racist his soon-to-be father-in-law is. To wit: All my gun are for shooting cans....African, Mexicans, and Puerto Ricans.

One Of My Very Own...

Do you think it is called sand because it’s between the sea and the land?

I would like to meet this guy...

[A] 68-year-old Ohio businessman has stockpiled more than 8,000 of the old-fashioned credit-card-processing machines, known for their tendency to scrape the fingers of the merchants who operate them. Mr. Matthews keeps the machines boxed up individually on the shelves of his 12,000-square-foot warehouse, ready to be shipped at a moment's notice. He has enough spare parts to assemble another 2,000 if need be.

There are two types of people in the world:
1) Morning people
2) People who want to shoot morning people

This dates back to like the 13th century...

The sinking of the Titanic was a real miracle for the lobsters in the kitchen.

One of many of those six word stories...

I’m a happy-go-lucky ray of fucking sunshine.

Ohaguro is the custom of dyeing one's teeth black. It was most popular in Japan until the Meiji era. Tooth painting was also known and practiced in the southeastern parts of China and Southeast Asia. Dyeing was mainly done by married women, though occasionally men did it as well. It was also beneficial, as it prevented tooth decay, in a similar fashion to modern dental sealants.

Headline:

The article said that most know that they probably will be and load up on birth control prior to the ordeal.

This impressed me...

Judging people comes so easy for me.

Another reason I shun public transportation...

Have you ever opened your laptop at a crowded bar to check the NFL scores only to discover you left porn playing at full volume?

Some more of those dishes with painted-on ants...

Shit you don't see everyday...

People try to explain ‘gluten allergy’ to me and I tell them I ate leather belts during World War II to keep from starving.

Reflections, Richard Combes...

 Fuck marriage...

Has you mom ever indicated that she wished she had had an abortion?

Sumerians sealed the first contracts of the world this way... 

Millions of men lived, fought and died in trenches like this during WWI...

And since you are probably already late to work, here's some cartoons that almost didn't make the cut, because I had no other place to stick them...

New football name....The Washington R-Words.

I've used this gag more times than I remember...

Has a woman ever said to you, “I swallow your cum so the least you can do is take out the garbage.”

Is a recogning coming or are we so sheepish as to just tolerate this insanity?

Who would have thought he would march lock-step in the footprints of his evil predecessors...
