When I used to read the left-wing news, all I learned about were police brutality, concentration camps and race riots in America. But now that I read the right-wing news, I see so much more: that the left controls all the big businesses, that we dominate in academia, and that we're on the verge of taking over the entire world. You know – it makes me feel a whole lot better!

not enough people are talking about how there is a species of armadillos called "screaming hairy armadillo"

Doomguy: short, to the point. "who is that?" it's Doomguy. "what does he do?" he does ᴅᴏᴏᴍ.

The Doom Slayer: overwrought, generic. "omgz, xXx_the_d00m_slayer_xXx livejournalled on the wall of my MySpace!!!11!!1"

ME, ONE YEAR AGO: this mexican party is good, but it has... how can one say ... too many people? there are in fact, only so many people one can dance with in the course of a party. I think I'm right in saying that, aren't I?

MY WIFE: this is absurd!

ME: my dear, don't take it too hard. it's quality celebrating. there are simply too many people. just remove a few, and it will be perfect.

MY WIFE: which few did you have in mind?

today I learned that "KDE" stands for KDE (K Desktop Environment (Kool Desktop Environment))

Thunderdome in characteristic 3:

Two men enter. One man leaves.

A biologist, physicist and mathematician are in a café, watching a house across the street. They see three people enter the house, and a while later four people leave the house.

The physicist says: "I thought the house was empty at the start. There must have been a measurement error."
The biologist says: "Why? They could have reproduced in the meantime."
The mathematician says: "Both of you are wrong. If one person enters the house, it will be empty again."

A biologist, physicist and mathematician are travelling by train in Scotland. Out of the window, they see a black sheep.

"Look, the sheep in Scotland are black," says the biologist.
"No, we can conclude only that some sheep in Scotland are black," says the physicist.
The mathematician says: "No, we know only that there is at least one sheep in Scotland, at least one side of which is black!"

Two days of crow in a row!
