“I saw all these students rushing and they were crying. I couldn’t stop coughing.”—
Santa Monica College student government director of outreach Cameron Espinoza • Discussing a pepper-spraying incident at the school last night, which took place as a result of a protest against high-priced summer courses at the school. The protest, which took place at a school trustees meeting, featured such chants as ”No cuts, no fees, education should be free!” Nobody was arrested in the incident, but at least two were hospitalized as a result of the police’s pepper spraying.
Ridiculous. What is it with Californian Uni-police and using pepper spray for any occasion?
Kudos to The New York Times for creating the “stop what you’re doing and do this” thing on the internet today! They turned a page on their site into a video game. As you can see, we’re getting good at it.
Now stop what you’re doing and go play!
And yes, it’s addicting.
- Carl, stay in the house.
- Seriously, Carl. Stay in the house
- Carl, I don’t want to yell but it’s the middle of the zombie apocalypse and we’re going to need you to stay close by.
- Okay, buddy. Can you be a good little sheriff and stay put? I don’t know, guard the living room. Yes, okay here’s a special hat and you are officially on duty to protect the couch cushions. Just stay in the house.
- Carl, I’d ground you but it seems a bit trite what with the hordes of Zombies outside trying to eat our faces.
- Remember what happened when another little kid wandered off alone? You were here for that.
- It’s great you’re keeping your childish rebellion alive but if one of the bad guys gets you, Daddy is going to have to shoot you in the head.
- Please, Carl. Just stay here. I’ll be right back. Protect the couch cushions. Make some lunch. Get back to doing that math homework we inexplicably cared about 4 episodes ago.
- Carl, I’m not fucking around. Please, Carl. Just stay in the house. Do this one fucking thing. Just stay in the house for the next 5 minutes.
- HAS ANYONE SEEN CARL?? HE’S NOT IN THE HOUSE.
dying right now
And take that stupid hat off.
That moment when your pin gets repinned by a dozen people you don’t know.
Colorado Senator Proposes Bill to Change ‘Saturday’ to ‘Caturday’
Senator Korbi, a DemoCat from Colorado, has proposed legislation that would change the name of Saturday to “Caturday.”
“With so many Americans working second jobs on the weekend to make ends meet, it is imperative to remind them that those two days are for fun and relaxing,” says Erin Stackhouse, communications director for Sen. Korbi’s office. “The senator’s bill will do just that.”
However, critics from both parties have rebuked the bill, calling it a “self-serving farce.”
“With the national debt at $15 trillion and many Americans still out of work, this is not the kind of bill we should be spending valuable legislative time on,” a representative from House Speaker John Boehner’s office tells The Fluffington Post.

Teehee.
A cash-strapped Minnesota town is replacing its police force with private security, raising legal and constitutional concerns galore.
Yesterday, wearing uniforms and carrying sidearms, security guards began doing 24-hour patrols every day of the week on the shady streets of Foley, a community of 2,600 surrounded by farmland, northeast of St. Cloud.
The cost-saving move has triggered worry among some that town leaders may have gone too far, taking some life-or-death responsibilities out of the hands of those with the legal authority to enforce the law.
“It’s a social experiment and it’s polarizing,” said Steve Olson, a Foley Town Council member who called the deal “the best we could do with the resources we’ve got.”
