Overnight Open Thread

So, EW Magazine writes Republicans vs Democrats TV: Lefties Want Comedy, Right Wingers Like Work and I gotta call BS on this. Especially after seeing what shows they are calling comedies. Saturday Night Live? Pfft. That stopped being funny decades ago. David Letterman? Was he ever funny? One other big problem with this list, it has South Park as one show that Republicans hate the most. Seriously? So how did the shows you like fare?

Moar Hollywood Stuff

So, what do you think are The Stupidest Movie Character Names? I'd have to say that Cole Trickle was the worst off the top of my head. Or maybe Mason Storm (or any Steven Seagal character). And Meegosh from Willow but that was from the same idiot that brought us the character Jar-Jar.

Oh, and here's a pop quiz. What character said the following line and what movie was it from?

"My eyes are ceramic. Caught a bazooka round at Little Big Horn. Or was it Okinawa? The one without the Indians."

WTF?

You can't make this stuff up. Wow. School Cop Disciplined For Dressing Up As Gynecologist "Dr. Harry Beaver". No, it wasn't some after work party. It was at the school!

Donnie Riggins, the school resources officer at Lake Brantley High School in Altamonte Springs, tried way too hard to be the "cool school cop." He's been removed from the school after an internal investigation centered on a bizarre skit he delivered on the school's morning announcement involving a teacher trying to cruise students and dressing up on Halloween as Dr. Harry Beaver, gynecologist.

Moron Worthy

Alright, which one of you morons did this? Man Straps Cruise Missile To His Car. Just wait until he adds the warhead.

Presidential Race

Since the GOP race is, um, well, to put it nicely, lackluster, perhaps it's time to look for another candidate. Say, perhaps, Marvin E. Quasniki? I do like his stance on bull shiite.

Police Department Scandal

Hmmm. This story gives a whole new meaning to Mounted Police Patrol Officers. Two Baltimore Police Officers On Leave After Reported Public Sex Act.

Natural STD Detector

Well, it would seem A Keen Sense Of Smell Can Detect STDs. Well, maybe, but definitely body odor. Or it's just a bunch of BS. It didn't sound too scientific.

So they invited 34 strapping Russian guys, ages 17 to 25, to donate samples of armpit sweat and spit for the cause of science. The group included 13 young men with gonorrhea, 16 who were healthy and five who had had the disease but were successfully treated.

Then they found 18 female students aged 17 to 20 from Kemerovo State University in Russia who were willing to serve as sweat-sniffers.

They obtained sweat samples by dressing the men in tight-fitting T-shirts with cotton pads sewn into the armpits. After an hour of sweating, men bagged their shirts and the pads were placed in glass vials for the women to sniff.

Doggeh Day Video

This dog shows off his sneak attack skillz.

Home Made Dinosaur Gun

Pretty impressive home made gun. The .700 WTF: For Hunting Dinosaurs. I don't know about Dinosaurs but this could be pretty effective against Terminators when SKYNET goes active.

The cartridge, named the .700 WTF ("What The F...") and is made by fire forming a .50 BMG brass case, trimming it to 3" in length and then sizing it. The round is loaded with a 1132 grain paper patched .700 lead cast bullet.

The rifle, with just a 16.25" barrel, can push the 1132 grain of lead up to 2300 fps. Thats 13,000 ft/lbs of energy, right up there with the .50 BMG and far exceeding the .700 Nitro Express. The cast lead bullet has enough energy to pass clean through a 1/4" steel plate.

Friday Night Music Video

Yeah, I know. It's from Burning Man but hey, it's not everyday you see a flamethrowing guitar in action!

Where Are They Now?

I had often wondered where Suzanne Sena had disappeared to. Now I know. She's over at the Onion News Network.
