On Monday Facebook banned all polls by developer Jesse Farmer, after an anonymous user created a controversial and some say illegal poll asking “should obama be killed?” Unfortunately the only thing getting killed here is freedom of spee...
Kid-Friendly Pedobear!?
What was once a dubious internet meme is now so ubiquitous that it’s being marketed to children by online stores like pedobearstore.com & pedobearplush.com. Now I like child molesting anthropomorphic bears as much as the next guy, but putti...

Is God PC Compatible?

Teleprompter-in-Chief

Flight of the Conchords - Season 2
The Conchords are back and their manager has great news for the band, too bad it’s the wrong band. It’s the kind of awkwardness that not even an impromptu song can undo. Tired of playing second fiddle to “The Crazy Dogs,” Jema...
Crapwrap
Let’s face it, nobody wraps gifts anymore. They all come neatly pre-wrapped from the store. But now you can show that special someone that you cared enough to wrap it yourself (or at least look that way). The screwballs over at Firebox.com ar...
Jesus Loves Cock(tails)
