Overnight Thread- Cram & Puke Edition [CDR M]

Well Moron Nation, I'm still at work but damn, when ONT duty calls, I'm there. So I'll have to live vicariously through y'all gettin' all drunk and topless and perhaps pantsless. So get your swerve on and it's time for the ONT. If the ONT sucks, you can blame NMCI (Navy Marine Corps Internet).

Deadlier US Munitions
Oh yeah. Sounds great until we cut the budget some more. U.S. Military Munitions To Become Even Deadlier.

A groundbreaking material is slated to replace steel in warhead casings. It will allow U.S. munitions to detonate with more force than ever before, while significantly increasing the chances of eliminating enemy targets.

By combining multiple metals with standard manufacturing methods, High-Density Reactive Material (HDRM) has the potential to seriously bolster the explosive capabilities of most munitions with virtually no sacrifice in strength or design.

In contrast to current munitions, the innovative materials system integrates the casing with approved warhead explosives for additional deadliness. The unique design for fragmenting warheads also enables the release of chemical energy after impact, which increases the chances of the bad guys dying.

Political Cartoon Of The Day

Yup, this image pretty much nails it.

The Institute Of ExtraTerrestrial Sexuality

I bet this Institute of Extraterrestrial Sexuality gets federal dollars, probably from Stimulus Funds. I'm sure CAPT Kirk might have some input for their upcoming book that explores, well, I'll let their own words explain.

A nearly 300 page, full color book and DVD containing art, writing, and film that envisions the sexualities of beings that may some day be encountered – if not in outer space than at least in our dreams! A joint publication by Encyclopedia Destructica and the The Institute of Extraterrestrial Sexuality, this project will publish the work of 69 artists, writers and filmmakers who have created an amazing range of expressions that expand our conception of the possibilities of alien life forms and the nature of sexual desire. Strange Attractors straddles the line between a speculative scientific exploration and a work of artistic imagination and creativity.

The Best And Worst Designed Alien Species In Video Games

Speaking of ET's, here is a listing of The Best And Worst Designed Alien Species In Video Games. Now, I haven't played some of the games discussed here like Halo and Gears of War, but really, no Doom 3 baddies?

Star Wars Pron Parody

Oh damn. This little trailer beats the crap out of the prequels. Hands down. And yes, the video is safe for work. The only naughty part is the letters X X X. And maybe the stormtrooper armor cut for a lady. Definitely no blaster protection there. So I wonder how some Star Wars lines will work in a Pron movie. Big walking carpet can take on a whole new meaning in this movie. Or it could mean we'll see what happens when an Ewok meets a Wookie.

Moron Lifestyle Underwear?

So some company in Chile is pushing a new type of underwear made of copper that eliminates the fungus and bacteria on your dirty arse. Not sure this is a good idea in today's economy with all those copper thieves out there. Or from a hygienic point of view.

It's the sterilizing effect of copper that works the cleansing magic. The copper underwear is made by merging copper with polyamide to produce an oil that's turned into wire. The wire is then woven inside your tightie whities so that the copper stays in contact with your skin so it can kill fungus and resist odor. So fresh and so clean!

Party Manners

Now, I know when I've been invited to parties, I usually bring something along with me but that usually was a 40 oz Bud in a brown bag or double Whopper with cheese depending on the menu. Seriously though, does anyone still practice good manners when attending a party? So what does one bring to a moron meetup? Puddin? Plastic bottle vodka?

All this talk of flowers and scented candles aside, most men prefer to bring liquor to events they attend. Yes, as we’ve mentioned it’s not very unique, but it’s well-received, it’s easier, and it’s something many men feel more comfortable buying and giving. Appropriate to nearly every occasion—except if you’re visiting a “dry” house—alcohol can be a thoughtful hostess gift if you think a little before you purchase it.

Take wine, for example. If your hosts are oenologists, don’t insult them with a bottle of two-buck Chuck. Visit a real liquor store and purchase something in the $20 range, like a nice chardonnay or cabernet sauvignon. Or you could exercise a little creativity and select an interesting sauvignon blanc, viognier, zinfandel (red only, please), muscat or shiraz from a more unusual wine region, like Alexander Valley or Chile. If you are helpless around wine, ask the proprietor for help.

Fine liquor makes for another excellent hostess gift. Unless you know your host has specific tastes in spirits, stick to the basics, like brandy, fine gin, flavored vodka, or top-shelf tequila. Jagermeister, Goldschlager, and flavored schnapps are never acceptable.

Anti-Riot Tip For Britain
Here's how you do it lads.

Guess The 'Ette

This seemed to be pretty popular last Friday and thankfully I got one submission. Can you guess this 'ette?

I keed, I keed. Sadly, I have to resort to People of Walmart since I received zero submissions for this feature. Sniff. Damn shame.

Perseid Meteor Shower

Hey, take a minute and go outside and look up, especially if it's near dawn for you late, late nighter types. Perseid Meteor Shower Light Show Peaks Tonight.

Well, I'm going back to work. Later y'all.
