Overnight Open Thread (23 Oct 2015)

Sorry I'm late. I thought someone else was posting an ONT so I goofed off for a bit. Good thing I checked back so here's your ONT.

Retirement

Why you can't afford to retire. Well this is what you get when your government has policies that punish savers and you have a growing majority of citizens that believe that Uncle Sam will magically pay for everything.

Venom

The most venomous creature just might surprise you. Post your guess before you read.

Gun Safety

Parachuting Beavers

In the 50's, Idaho's Department of Fish and Game air dropped beavers to relocate them.

NOAA Fraud Continues

NOAA blows away their fraud by wide margin in September. If the GOP had balls, they'd defund this shit.

Costumes

Not surprising really. Hardly anyone really dresses as Ebola nurses or pizza rats for Halloween.

Peer Reviewed

Over 120 science journal papers pulled for being total gibberish.

since all papers are supposedly peer-reviewed, the publishers are having a hard time explaining exactly how this happened.

USAF Case

Air Force probes punishment for pilots grounded over Miley lyric texts.

Origins Of Dog Domestication

The domestication of dogs may have originated in Central Asia.

Dog Video

Tonight's ONT brought to you by classic ads:
