• Best Comment Of The Day in response to The Guys From Jersey Shore Get A Mini-Makeover:

That’s not a makeover or even a makeunder… it’s more like a makebeside.

• Best Comment Of The Day in response to O’Donnell: “America Is One Of The Most Free Places In The Country”:

And I’m proud to be an American
Where at least I know I’m free
To say stupid things that make perfect sense
To people just like me
And I’ll proudly take your civil rights
And your Magic Wand away
Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this countryyyy
Free-est place in the USA!

scientists have already created mice with human brains
That was just a cartoon. Cartoons aren’t real.
