I rather like it and it's rather strange for me to be so out of sync with other Neat-o readers. But then again, I don't mind Kanye.

Just busted for printing one out...they're hilarious.

Anyone made a LOLZombee yet?

Bucks to the Val Kilmer in Real Genius. He was absolutely a great geek.

Fantastic. Of course, you could also ID taggers this way. Which is less fantastic.

And temporarily blind.

Amazing. Made my day.

That trailer hurt me to my very soul. And the tooth flare burned my retina.

This -- in addition to a healthy dose of icanhascheezburger.com -- got me through a rough Monday at work. TPS reports are no match for Kitteh!

I laughed at the duck clip. Then I went to brush my teeth and saw my rubber ducky sitting on the edge of the tub. It's not my rub-a-dub pre-req, but it does hang out near the bath.
