Link of the Day [3.10.15]

What I felt when reading through today’s link the first time was resignation. I already knew that we gave up a lot of our freedom for the safe, security we needed to defeat a bunch of know-nothing, backwards scaremongers of the Middle East. But the more I read, the more I got angry.

What the hell man?! This is supposed to keep us safe? I feel safe already? FUDGE these guys.

Then the article started getting into some of the specifics. Like how the ‘white hat hackers’ are cracking our development tools to inject malicious code into our applications. That just makes me disgusted.

Is this our United States? Is this what we wanted? We wanted to feel safe for this? Thanks, W. FUDGE that guy. FUDGE you guys for giving in.

This is how they troll Orioles fans at Cooperstown. The Amazing Mets? Pittsburgh Pirates? Really, Cooperstown, really?

Vampires are big. You can’t throw a stone and not hit them because they are everywhere. Everyone loves them. We just can’t get enough of vampires.

Pirates are making a strong play at becoming the next vampire. Ever since bony Johnny Depp became a pirate, it’s been cool to be a pirate. Yaarrgh!

Here’s a book series that tops either one of these, because it combines them both. Vamp-pirates! “I vant to suck your blood, yearrgh!

Now, it would be even cooler if the vampirates’ enemies were ninjas.

Quote of the Day [11.19.08]

Because mutiny on the bounty’s what we’re all about
I’m gonna board your ship and turn it on out
No soft sucker with a parrot on his shoulder
‘Cause I’m bad gettin’ bolder – cold getting colder
Terrorizing suckers on the seven seas
And if you’ve got beef – you’ll get capped in the knees
We got sixteen men on a dead man’s chest
And I shot those suckers and I’ll shoot the rest

Beastie Boys, “Rhymin’ and Stealin'”
