Overnight Open Thread (8 Feb 2014)

Par for the course. Cronies over capability. We are in the very best of hands.

Obama’s appointee to Ambassador of Luxembourg ran that embassy into the ground; the ambassador to the Bahamas took 270 personal days in a year and a half. The ambassador to Belgium was reportedly investigated by your own IG’s office for procuring prostitutes in the park in front of his house. So I’m wondering if you — do you — do you draw a distinction between people like Walter Mondale, who are, like, life-long public servants, and political donors and bundlers who have no professional or international experience whatsoever?

Embrace the suck.


The Worst People, By State

Check out this map showing the worst people in each state.

Speaking of maps, here's some more that show where people frequently run in some cities. I'd like to see a crime overlay on these.

Tomcat

Can't be a Caturday without some Tomcat action no?

Survival Gear

Perhaps it is time to add a sling shot to the longbow/crossbow discussion. The arrow-shotting slingshot.

'Gina Liftin'

Um, no. Ten reasons to lift weights with your 'gina according to sex coach.

'Think of it like your bicep,' she begins. 'You don't work out your arms just by flexing your muscles; you need weights. The vagina works the same way, it needs weight to create resistance in order to build strength.'

That Coke Ad

Now with more diversity like Klingon, Dolphin, and more.

Angry Goats

This is a pretty strange video game. It looks like you get to play a goat. Serious you guys. A goat. Hopefully there is at least a revenge angle to this, maybe against Achmed and friends for previous wrongs.

Car Recon

Concept car uses its own reconnaissance drone to spot traffic jams. This could be very handy for me. I'd use it to scout out the HOV lane during rush hour and see if any cops are laying in wait.

Free Checking Accounts

Free checking accounts are vanishing and they forget to mention the role that Dodd-Frank had in helping this come about.

Airsoft Trip Mine

This could come in handy for someone trespassing in your yard (if you don't have Claymores handy). How to build an Airsoft Trip Mine.
