Get Cynical

Finally the Yugo proves useful for something.

So I was in Washington, DC, with Dennis after the Federal Webmasters Workshop in July 1995, and we checked out Union Station, and happened upon this cool display of Yugo Art. It was the product of an assignment to an art class at the School of Visual Arts in NYC, wherein they were asked to take a Yugo and transform it into something else. The professor in charge of the class was Kevin O’Callaghan.

Question:
Which person pictured above plays centerfield for the Red Sox?

The title pretty much sums this up.

Um

Yesterday I posted a picture of a cover of an anti-beatle pamphelet. Unfortunately it was just the cover and there were no contents. This website is about The Beatles and the Aquarian Conspiracy.

The phenomenon of the Beatles was not a spontaneous rebellion by youth against the old social system. Instead it was a carefully crafted plot to introduce by a conspiratorial body which could not be identified, a highly destructive and divisive element into a large population group targeted for change against its will. New words and new phrases–prepared by Tavistock(1)– were introduced to America along with the Beatles. Words such as “rock” in relation to music sounds, “teenager,” “cool,” “discovered” and “pop music” were a lexicon of disguised code words signifying the acceptance of drugs and arrived with and accompanied the Beatles wherever they went, to be “discovered” by “teenagers.” Incidentally, the word “teenagers” was never used until just before the Beatles arrived on the scene, courtesy of the Tavistock Institute for Human Relations.

Oh yeah, and the CIA and George Bush had John Lennon killed. Almost forgot about that.

I never knew it was based on a real man.

You know those warning signs you always see with the stick man falling down or being crushed or otherwise incurring bodily harm? That’s me. I posed for those pictures.

My entire purpose in life is getting hurt so we can put up signs to protect people who are stupid and/or illiterate. Is it really worth it to go through all this pain and humiliation just to ensure the safety of someone who doesn’t realize that if they stand under a parking garage gate long enough it will eventually hit them in the head.

Aren’t we better off without these people?

This would be a great idea except for that fact that it is a terrible idea.

How does Died Online work?

You login to the system every few days, or whatever time period you set it at. If you don’t login within that certain amount of time, the system will email all of your friends with your custom “Hey, I’m dead now” message. You can also display a little dead or alive image on your website, online journals, emails, etc…

I would never remember to go on to say I am alive.

Technonerds go to movies strictly for entertainment, and of course, the most entertaining part comes after the movie when they can dissect, criticize, and argue the merits of every detail. However, when supposedly serious scenes totally disregard the laws of physics in blatantly obvious ways it’s enough to make us retch. The motion picture industry has failed to police itself against the evils of bad physics. This page is provided as a public service in hopes of improving this deplorable matter.
