Lefthandedness Being left-handed is like being in a secret club. We have our own bizarre initialization rituals, such as learning how to write "the wrong way." We pay our dues every day, in terms of the extra effort that we must make to live in a right-handed world. When we encounter another lefty, we immediately have something in common. For fun, I started making a list of the aspects of everyday life that are geared towards right-handed people. We have to use special "lefty" scissors. Back to Lucas' writings.

Math doesnt suck, you do. Every time I hear someone say "I suck at math," I immediately think he or she is a moron. If you suck at math, what you really suck at is following instructions. This shirt is birth control. Sucking at math is like sucking at cooking. I'm tired of eating shitty food because you're too much of a dipshit to follow a recipe. Math is exactly like cooking: just follow the recipe. Math isn't some voodoo that only smart people understand. Theoretical math is cool as shit. Ever heard of Pascal's triangle? No, because you're too busy saying the same tired excuse every other dickhead spews out about math: "when will I ever use this in life?" First of all, if you're leading your life in such a way that you never have to do math, congratulations, you are a donkey. Why is math the only discipline that has to put up with this bullshit? But when it comes to math, everyone turns into a big pussy and starts PMSing all over the place. People didn't invent this stuff because they were bored. Don't like it?

Bacon Wrapped Media - 11 Funny Facts I Learned From The Movies For More Fun Movie Facts, Click HERE About the author: Prasad View all posts by Prasad Joyride: How to steal fuel in broad daylight What happens when someone tries to steal fuel from a car's tank in public during broad daylight? Logic says passers-by will tell them to stop, and have-a-go-heroes will be morally obliged to stomp their heads in, but logic doesn't always translate to reality. We discovered this first hand recently when, returning to one of our cars, we found the tank empty. Someone had taken the liberty of siphoning the entire tankful of petrol and made good their escape, leaving us stranded, incensed and questioning our faith in humanity. We figured if it had happened to us then surely it must be happening to other people. So we set up a social experiment to see what the public reaction was to petrol theft -- particularly the brazen sort that happens in broad daylight. We began our experiment just around the corner from Picadilly Circus and Leicester Square. For our last test, we upped the ante. Did the public respond?

7 Badass Cartoon Villains Who Lost to Retarded Heroes The hero's tale requires that he overcome long odds to defeat the bad guys. We understand that; nobody would have rooted for Luke Skywalker if Darth Vader had been a small, handicapped child. But many of the cartoons of our childhood took this idea to absolutely retarded extremes, to the point that it strained even our childish suspension of disbelief. Dr. M.A.D. 1: You know, we could have looted some stuff before burning down that warehouse. There was one time when Claw teamed up with his Japanese counterpart, Waruda, to steal all the jewelery in the world. They also had their logo stamped on everything. Who Was He Constantly Losing To? Inspector Gadget. The whole "spawning any weapon from his hat" man machine thing sounds like he'd be a powerful hero, but then you realize he's less "combination of man and machine" and more "combination of machine and pure incompetent asshole." Gadget is constantly being outwitted by his own dog and his 10 or 11-year-old niece. Really, Dr. The Care Bears.

Why Disney Princesses Are the Worst Role Models EVER All_Is_Mal has a little problem with the Disney role-model model. Pitchforks up or thumbs up?–Sparkitors I really, really detest Disney princesses. Prince: Wow, check out that unbelievably stunning girl! Princess: Oh, look! Prince: I love you! Princess: Really? I don’t hate the princesses as people—they’re all really kind girls. Pretty Nice Hair Waist Smaller Than Head ARGH. No Growth: There is not a princess out there that learns, grows, changes, or progresses over the course of the story line. Superficial Standards: The only reason that any of the princesses get a happy ending is because they’re gorgeous. Misconceptions of Love and Happily Ever After: Princess stories repeatedly advertise love at first sight. The Eternally Passive Princess: All of these girls have skills, and I firmly believe that each one of them could have escaped their undesirable situations without being saved by a man. Disclaimer: The reinvented Rapunzel from Tangled is actually a good role model for little girls.

Almost all of our entertainment is based on letting us escape to some other world where people can do magic and even the hardships look like fun. What is interesting, though, is how terrible our fictional fantasy worlds really are. They look like fun for two hours at a time, but with a little thought you see why living there would make you want to drink yourself into a stupor. (It'd be awesome to live in the Star Wars universe though, because then you could hang with Cracked and have Adventures in Jedi School.) Disney movies show us an animated world full of dashing heroes, beautiful princesses and loveable sidekicks. If you're a good person, a happy ending complete with riches and true love is pretty much guaranteed. "And then I fucking DIE? Why It Would Suck In the Disney universe animals talk, which at first all looks like good fun. Want to enjoy some seafood? Oh, crap. We wonder why.
