Where To Find The Meaning Of Life

Wikipedia needs your help. Be honest, you use it ALL THE TIME. I do. And now they're running out of money.

Donate!

Wikipedia is never wrong.

Plus, tax deductible (...probably).

Favorite wikipedia stuff:

• Browsing aerodynamics, especially Military and Experimental Aircraft which always leads to the Flying Bathtub


• Coconut Crabs, part of the fascinating Christmas Island ecosystem (red crabs, and the Yellow Crazy Ant)


• And, obviously, the Random Article feature

All Wrapped Up

Promote holiday cheer and good gift wrapping techniques!




Those of you who, like me (and Biggie), are excellent wrappers won't need to follow this link - but for those of you who are terrible wrappers (Stephen) it will be well worth the look.

Though, for those of you who are very good wrappers, but only want to seem terrible (Van Winkle) you can go here to find gifts wrapped poorly by design.


Happy holidays!

Form Meets Function

Perfect!






This will fit very nicely in my headquarters villainous decor. Video conferencing with world leaders as I held their countries hostage from this chair would definitely add the air of menace that's been missing so far.

I've emailed the company to inquire about adding a remote-controlled laser cannon to the canopy. I'll keep you posted.

01. I can be in the NBA. I'm tall, I like to wear shorts. Hook! Hook! Dunk! Dunk! Baby, I'm all about three points [Good Will Hunting] Eileen

02. Tell me about an ambush. I ambushed you with a cup of coffee! [Ronin] Hetherjw

03. Watch out, the yellow ones don't stop! [Elf] Eileen

04. Metaman, express elevator! Dynaguy, snagged on takeoff! Splashdown, sucked into a vortex! No capes! [The Incredibles] Laura

05. I believe it our fate to be here. It is our destiny. I believe this night holds for each and every one of us, the very meaning of our lives.

06. Three-two-six three-eight-two-seven!

07. Now when I created the World...

08. So you're telling me there's a chance! [Dumb and Dumber] Eileen

09. 'La ola es mia.' 'the wave is mine'...I spoke Spanish in my dream!

10. With friends like you who needs friends?

11. Why would a reviewer make the point of saying someone's *not* a genius? Do you especially think I'm *not* a genius? You didn't even have to think about it, did you?

12. Only when I cease to breathe will I be dead,

13. I may not make an honest buck, but I'm 100% American...

14. We were taxiing out to the runway, right? And we, you know, we kind of hit a moose. No, the moose is fine, but we gotta make sure that the plane's all right, so some of the boys are pushing it back so these guys can take a look at it. Patti, the moose is okay. He ran off. I saw it.

15. Now get back to the stands before I shave off half your mustache and shove it up your left nostril.

[Bonus quote: same movie as #15: "Those Yankees are real turds."]

A Really Long December

The kid behind me WILL NOT STOP with the radio playing. GET SOME HEADPHONES.

I have used up all my passive-aggressive plays, and I am sick of using my own headphones solely to block the early ninties soft rock streaming from his computer. Counting Crows haven't been relevant in a decade, and you really have to STOP tapping your desk in time with Ants Marching! Seriously. Pandora is great for listening to music you like. You know what else is great? KEEPING IT TO YOURSELF.


He did just get up from his desk without locking his computer...I'm going to disable his sound card.
