5 Scientific Reasons a Zombie Apocalypse Could Actually Happen

From cracked.com:

We found out recently that if you try to leave a little kid in a graveyard late at night, he'll freak out. Even if you offer to leave him a gun to protect himself. Why? It's because on some instinctual level, all humans know it's just a matter of time until the zombies show up.

William Ayers to speak at UNL

Eh, I don't think it's that big of a deal. My bigger concern is that the chancellor would make this comical statement:

In a statement, Chancellor Harvey Perlman also defended Ayers’ selection, noting UNL, like any university, makes an effort to host speakers of a variety of political opinions.

I'd like to see some examples of this alleged "variety of political opinions" on campus. Any why do campuses have to be political in the first place?

The iPhone is a piece of shit, and so is your face.

Here's a review of the iPhone. I think I'll agree with this one.

When the iPhone was first announced, CEO Steve Jobs spewed enough BS to cover a football field full of babies 3 feet deep in bullshit, which sounds cool because he could have potentially murdered a football field full of babies, but he passed on this opportunity by introducing the phone instead. He claimed that the phone was three devices in one: an iPod, a phone, and an "Internet communications device." Oooh, an Internet communications device?! AWESOME!
...
It's not three devices in one any more than my laptop is you morons. Using Jobs' loose definition of what constitutes a separate device, technically my laptop can be considered 8 devices in one:

A clock
A calculator
An "Internet communications device"
A phone (I can make voice calls with my modem)
A pornographic media storage device
A video player
A word processor
And an "iPod" (see below)

There's no such thing as an iPod. The word "iPod" is a marketing tool for a hard drive with software that plays mp3s. Yeah, doesn't sound so sexy now, does it you chimps? And an "internet communications device" is officially the douchebaggiest way of saying "it has a browser." So actually it's just a phone that plays mp3s and has a browser. SNORE.


The iPhone is a piece of shit, and so is your face.

Two reasons for the bad economy

Here's two letters sent in to Dave Ramsey. They really give us a good example of what's wrong with our economy right now. The first shows a guy who won't take responsibility for his money, and the second shows a reader being punished for her success. Click the link for Dave's response.

Dear Dave,

My boyfriend has a lot of debt. The other day a creditor called, and he wouldn't answer the phone. Then, he told me it would be easier for him to pay off his debts if we were married because I could act as his accountability partner. I don't want to be the money cop, and I wonder if he would truly be more motivated. What do you think?

Janine

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

Dear Dave,

I just received notice that my homeowners insurance is about to increase $200 because my FICO credit score dropped. I recently became debt-free, so I know this score will continue to drop. I'm very confused and angry about this. What should I do?

VP Debate

The debate's over. I didn't think anything really came out of it.

It was kind of boring, but both sides did what they needed to. Biden needed to make sure he didn't look like a jerk and Palin needed to make sure she looked like she knew what she was talking about.

As for who "won" the debate, the poll on Drudge Report, which has a pretty large conservative audience has Palin ahead, and the poll on MSNBC, which has a pretty large liberal audience has Biden on top. I think that means that most people already had their "winner" picked in advance.

VP debate moderator Ifill releasing pro-Obama book

So what if the moderator of the VP debate has a financial stake in the election, right?

What a joke. PBS is a complete disgrace. Funded by YOUR tax dollars. (And mine.)

The moderator of Thursday's vice-presidential debate is writing a book to come out about the time the next president takes the oath of office that aims to "shed new light" on Democratic candidate Barack Obama and other "emerging young African American politicians" who are "forging a bold new path to political power."
