It’s true. Deep philosophy’s all very well, and so are kitten pics, but it’s the nuclear flaming trainwrecks that really get the punters in. 😃

From MPSIMS:

**My first emergency repair in the new house; a handy MMP  
Building blows up?**

Emergency repairs may be an understatement.

**I’ve joined the evil empire . . .  
I killed a kitten today.**

It sounds like you’ll fit right in. Welcome to the family.

From IMHO:

**Trip Activity Advice: Paris, Rome, Venice, Florence  
How often do you masturbate?**

“Tired of masturbating? Masturbate in Rome.” Worst tourism slogan ever.

From CS:

**"Recipes" requiring live animals?  
I can’t believe they got away with that!**

They didn’t get away with it yet. PETA is mobilizing its paramilitary division as we speak (type?)

**What would the first Terminator done if it had killed Sarah Conner?  
Goodbye, Lenin**

A little late for that, don’t you think.

**PSP: “White Is Coming”?  
Technology Star Fleet should have jumped on with both feet**

Starfleet with PSPs. I’d rather not imagine it.
