A Conservative majority.

They were thrown out of Parliament on charges of contempt, and we give them a majority government.

We are dumb. We are the stupidest goddamn people on the face of the Earth. I just - fuck. I give up. You morons are on your own.

So, because I am weak-willed, I reactivated my FFXI account early last week. I made a deal with myself, however - I was not allowed to buy the Abyssea expansions until I had levelled Scholar to 50, just to prevent myself from wasting too much money on a temporary nostalgia-trip return to Vana'diel ( Read more... )

So the Sun News Network launched yesterday, and apparently I get it for free somehow - so I tried watching it ( Read more... )

I found out today that they never caught him because she made the whole thing upThe police have ( Read more... )

I blew up the USS Tesla.

On purpose.
