Netaddiction.com has a quick test to see if you have an internet addiction. Billing themselves as the “Center for Net Addiction… your resource since 1985,” they claim that 1 in 8 people suffer from this addiction. Hmm. I apparently am an average internet user with a score of 24. Continue reading

I have no idea what the hell is happening here, but it would appear to be a shirtless fellow in skinny jeans performing the most bizarre moonwalk of all time. It looks like it was shot in Belgium or somewhere rainy/Caucasian. The video was uploaded to YouTube yesterday by “onelovecandyman,” who has a Twitter feed here.
You’re gonna be star some day, kid. Straight to the top!
At some point, someone, somewhere said that failed Republican presidential candidate, “Herman Cain is the gift that keeps on giving,” and there is no truer statement than that. Continue reading

According to Chuck Norris, President Obama is “creating a pro-gay Boy Scouts of America” by supporting BSA national board member James Turley’s efforts to make the Boy Scouts a more inclusive organization. This move came after a Lesbian troop leader was recently removed because her sexual orientation “did not meet the high standards” of the organization. Her child was booted as well. Norris accuses President Obama of giving Turley “perks and favors” and condemns his failure to protect the BSA’s “First Amendment rights to stand against atheists, agnostics and homosexuals.”
“And I have no privacy, whoa-oh-oh.” Well, yes, this is true for some of you. Callum Haywood’s experiment called weknowwhatyouredoing.com makes that abundantly clear. Know who can see when you tell your Facebook buddies that you hate your boss, are hungover, smoked some cheeba, or got a new phone number? Everyone! All the time! Everywhere! Continue reading
Today in things that show people are disgustingly stupid, the Oreo Facebook page posted this image last night (which helpfully notes that it was made with creme colors that don’t actually exist). That’s not the stupid part. People who a) apparently like a certain type of cookie enough to find their Facebook page and share their enjoyment of said cookies with all their friends and b) are dumb, began inundating the page with family-friendly messages, including such gems as “i’ll stick to black n white. fuck gay oreos,” and “Gays can all go kill themselves they are sinners and will burn in hell.” Buzzfeed has a collection of these messages if you need a self-esteem boost.
Many of these proud Americans are calling for a boycott, so pick up your favorite variety next time you go to the store. As the STFUConservatives tumblr suggested, you should also tweet them (@oreo) or leave a message on their Facebook page to let them know that you appreciate their support. Comment.
Well, not a friend, exactly. This isn’t Craigslost, after all.
However, with the fake end of the world only six months out, doomsday believers really need to get themselves in order. The world may be ending, life exterminated, rivers boiling, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways to make the experience more pleasant. Continue reading
