Badger recovering in shelter after being found drunk on Polish beach | World news | The Guardian
Unfortunately Wandzia (as they named the badger) didn't survive last night ... this story was hilarious up until that point.
Remember kids, alcohol really is poison.

lol

There is a museum in North Korea that has a replica of the world's largest table scaled-down to the size of a normal table.

Similarly, The World's Largest Collection of the World's Smallest Versions of the World's Largest Things is a traveling roadside museum out of Kansas that simply should not be missed.

Hitchhiking Robot Lasts Just Two Weeks in US Because Humans Are Terrible

Sad times for hitchhiking robots...

Good job Philly, classy as always.

As suspected. Already meme'd:

http://cdn.meme.am/instances/57145013.jpg

I'm surprised it even made it that far.

I think the real question is how he managed to last 2 weeks...

Aha. That news doesn't surprise me
to be honest!

I wonder what made the guy so mad he takes it out on defenseless robots?

Some idiotic woman from Idaho went to S Africa and murdered a giraffe.

Fun fact: by definition, you can only murder humans.

I'm going for dramatic effect.

I know, I was going for the semantic effect.

Form for Drug Dealers to Snitch on Competitors Results in Drug Arrest

I hope they have a lot of stitches ready at the Franklin County hospitals.

It makes me feel sad seeing her standing next to a giraffe's corpse. You only have to be about three years old to know giraffes are special.

What she did was a very ****ty thing to do, I agree. I'm still an apologist for words and their definitions though.

Then you should know damn well there ain't no "we" in pregnant, son.

Hypersensitivity among today's college students

Stand-Up Comics Have to Censor Their Jokes on College Campuses - The Atlantic


Is it a backlash against people who find nothing offensive to find everything offensive?

Are today's 20-something set the most puritanical generation since World War One?

Does it just seem this way because of social media?

Is this generation simultaneously the most offensive and the most easily offended?

Honestly there's so many symptoms at play with all these PC-related college stories I don't think there's any one. Just from what I've read and my general experience here's a short break down of what I think is partial responsible.

Lack of maturity due to arrested development.

Growing up within an echo chamber of agreeing opinions because of the internet, i.e. I can cultivate an entire internet experience that never disagrees or challenges anything I think or say.

Outrage culture wherein if I'm angry then it means I'm paying attention and care more about something than you.

Entitlement. I dunno I might be stretching for this one a little bit but given how much university costs, there might be this sense of entitlement that things shouldn't upset me. The article kind of went into this a little bit with the resort analogy.

Honestly though, and there is absolutely no way to prove this in any way shape or form, but I think the worst thing the internet ever did was turn activism into just another fad.

Completely agree.

Also agree.

I think there was faddish activism long before there were internets.

'Can opener bridge' leaves trucks topless

Bunch of dumbass drivers.. Lol when the entire box gets knocked off the truck.

Y'all North Carolinans need to learn how tall your damn truck is if you're driving it commercially. The POD people and the RV I can give a little leeway to since they're not going to be faced with that problem too often, but you have to know the height of your trailer/semi. Dumbass hicks.
