Maybe I’ll plug my TV in again.

You should’ve heard the celebration in the house here when I told everyone TKITH was coming back. I SQUISH YOUR HEAD.

Trapped 'coma' man: How was he misdiagnosed?

Trapped 'coma' man: How was he misdiagnosed?:

A Belgian car crash victim who was misdiagnosed as being in a vegetative state for 23 years was conscious the whole time, it has emerged.

For years he listened to the conversations going on around him but he was unable to communicate with his doctors or family.

Rom Houben was 23 at the time of the near-fatal car crash in 1983 that left him paralyzed. Doctors presumed he was in a vegetative state following the accident and they believed he could feel and hear nothing.

Well there’s your Nightmare of the Day.

At first, when it was just people who couldn’t describe her platform, I was thinking, “like half the people at the Obama rally could describe his platform either” (and I stand by that thought—you know, other than “hope” and “change” and some vague notion about health care)… but then shit got real. Really real. And by “really real” I mean “terrifying in its idiocy.”

It’s pretty hard not to be a liberal elitist when this is the other end of the spectrum. This video makes me hate the human brain and what it’s capable of.

Trailer for the new Ben Stiller flick, Greenberg.:

It was bound to happen: LCD Soundsystem’s All My Friends used in a trailer for a film about a middle-aged man struggling to find his identity.

BUT

The end of the trailer promises “new music from James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem.” Fair trade.
