Flaming idiots...

This is the last post today... I really gotta get some work done. I just had to put this up, even though I'm sure it's been seen plenty by now, cause I laughed hard when I finally saw the dude at the end throwing more alcohol on his buddy who is already on fire. So stupid... So beautiful.

Really?

ROME (Reuters) - Calling a foreigner a "dirty negro" in Italian is not necessarily a racist insult, Italy's highest court has ruled. The verdict, relating to a case where a group of Italian men punched and insulted some women from Colombia, caused deep unease at a time when Italy is struggling to contain racism. The court on Monday ruled in favor of one of the men, who argued he was not being racist when he launched the assault with the words: "Sporche negre -- cosa ci fanno queste negre qua?" ("Dirty negroes -- what are these negroes doing here?")

The article goes on to explain the judges ruling, which I've omitted here, cause I really couldn't understand it. There's pretty much no way, however great your imagination is, that you could turn that around to NOT be insulting or derogatory.... well apparently I'm wrong.

Google generated maps...

Ian pointed me to http://www.mapbuilder.net yesterday, and of course being the nerd I am, had to go and check it out. Basically, you can use the Google Maps engine to do whatever you like and put them in your own pages. I put one together to try it out.

Original content


In order to post something on this site that would actually make it better than Greg's, I present this...

Greg's Blog Bites...

This is a tribute to Greg Langille's blog. A blog so bad, that I had to create this blog to restore order to the Internet. It's easier to make fun of someone elses stuff, rather than create original content, and so this blog is born.

Expect nothing, and you shall be rewarded.

I'm bored already. This blog bites too.

Too much time?

Some people have a lot of free time... I'm thinking this is video butchered, although if it was, that would still take a lot of time, and so I guess it's still cool.
