Usually, when I visit Crack'd, I end up clicking on a few links while I'm there.

It's a nice place to visit, but it's list-heavy, and it seems to be declining in quality - which is funny, because it's not as crude as it used to be.

Would have been better without the constant yelping. Where's the wacky music when you need to cover up the sounds of distress?

As usual, I wouldn't call it cruel: just mean.

lol. Uncle Owen's first name was "Uncle"? I'm kinda surprised there wasn't any character whose name began with X.

The N guy looks like a home-made costume.

Modern parents of peanut allergy kids are freakin' nazis.

I grew up with a guy who had a peanut allergy, and his parents were perfectly fine - it seems we're getting a little more paranoid about it now.

They might be nice in person, but the pictures are unflattering.

For hard work and beauty, beats a steampunk anything hands down. Though, not quite as glittery as rhinestones on an iPhone.

I agree about the Silmarillion. Sometimes, they're not all best-seller material.

Publicity stunt.

According to the dictionary, a statute is:
1. A law enacted by a legislature.
2. A decree or edict, as of a ruler.
3. An established law or rule, as of a corporation.

That's a lot of tomatos to eat in one sitting.

And for someone to say that 1812 is our only war... that just shows more ignorance.

I really doubt Canadians know much more about the War of 1812 than they do about the Revolutionary War or the American Civil War, or any other war.

At least not most of the Canadians I know.

That's one incredibly bad hair day.

Actually, KD, it wouldn't be any more correct. It sounds a little antiquated to us, because we don't use the same range of verbs that we used to in bygone days.

"Is" could be shorter for the sake of communication. It reminds me of when telegrams were trimmed down to bare bones.

What is the current state of Guam? "It is destroyed." "Has been" weakens the force of the sentence, since it's a more passive form of the verb.

The form strikes us as more adjectival in form.

It also reminds me of Julius Caesar's "Vixerat", which could be translated literally as "he had lived", but more colloquially as "he had finished living", or "he died" (in reality, Caesar was the cause of his finishing his life). (or was it more than one person? I can't remember exactly)

Ummm... no. Not nice at all.

I have no desire to click the link for this.
