I wasn't really sure where to post this, but I thought you guys, if anyone, would probably get the biggest kick out of it.

I occasionally like reading the writings of kooky conspiracy theorists, and frothing-at-the-mouth racists because there's usually quite a bit of unintentional humor here and there. Today I was curious about whether or not there were any racist groups operating in my area, and digging through wikipedia, I wound up learning about Canada's "Nationalist Party". They have a guy named Bob Smith who I guess regularly runs for mayor of Toronto, and he has a regular column on their website.

Well, his stuff is such pure gold that I wouldn't have believed it wasn't satire if I di

This was a commercial for a candy that possibly no longer exists (I'm not sure what the candy was). I'm guessing mid to late 80's.

Imagine Super Nibs, but with a hole down the middle like normal licorice. In the commercial, a bunch of them were dancing around (probably stop motion animated), singing "Tutti Frutti", with little tongues coming out of the holes, like mouths.

It possibly took place in a store at night, like the candy had come to life after hours.

Obviously this is a tad vague, but it's something I've remembered from my childhood, and have never been able to place exactly what it was.

Recently I was at a bar with a group of people, and talking about good TV shows we were watching, and I brought up Shameless (the US version). One guy said that he tried to watch it, but was just too disgusted by the gay sex, complaining it was horribly graphic, and another guy agreed with him.

The thing is, it's really not particularly graphic, at least not any more graphic than the straight sex on the show.

It seemed really odd encountering this attitude in adults. These were guys in their early 30's who claim to be totally fine with gay people. I remember in high school this kind of attitude being common, and even then it always struck me as a rather desperate and thinly veiled attempt

EDIT: HE CAME HOME! Missing for a week and a half, and he just showed up at my bedroom window at around 4am. Seems perfectly healthy, if a bit dirty. I suspect someone was feeding him... perhaps they tried to take him in and he bolted first chance he got... or he's been surviving on an all mouse diet. Who knows... either way, he's back! Thanks to everyone who kept their eyes peeled!

Thought it would be worth a try to post here... Dimitri is a male, neutered stripey brown and white (with some grey) tabby cat. He is roughly 4 years old.

He is missing his collar (he constantly pulls them off of himself).

I wrote this message to the Conservative Party of Canada after hearing a radio attack ad against Justin Trudeau, regarding his stated desire to legalize marijuana. You can listen to the ad here.

I have provided some links within the article, in case you're not familiar with some of the issues I address.

Your recent ads attacking Justin Trudeau on his approach to marijuana are extraordinarily misguided, and make the conservative party appear frightfully ignorant.

When I was in high school, marijuana was far easier to obtain than alcohol. It could easily be purchased from other students at school. Alcohol and tobacco,

There's this story in r/wtf about a guy passed out in his truck on the freeway, who then goes kind of nuts, crashes, and flees the scene:

Some guy in the comments claimed he's clearly on opiates, and while the guy's initial nod looks like it could be, his crazy twitching is nothing like any opiate related behaviour I've ever seen.

Here's his comment: http://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1oxhmf/channel_2_news_finds_passed_out_driver_on_highway/ccwual6

Am I missing something here, or is this guy completely nuts?

I used this in a debate I've been having with a truther in r/conspiracy:

You're approaching a murder scene where there's a guy (who had been beefing with the victim for years) holding a smoking gun, and saying "I finally gave the bastard what he deserved!", and then you're assuming that this guy has been set up by your annoying neighbour just because you don't trust or like your neighbour.

So you start digging around for clues implicating your neighbour. Despite the fact you have zero training in forensics, you feel that the bullet wound is at the wrong angle, (ignoring the actual forensics experts who are trying to explain the physics to you of why the bullet wound appears odd).
