So I just read a story about a dude that found $16,000 in an after hours bank deposit box. He took the money and turned it in the next morning. The story read something about a "Good Samaritan" returning money, blah, blah, blah. Why does that have to be a Good Samaritan act? Why can't that just be normal and honest? What the shit?! Someone in this society does something unselfish and morally right and we congratulate them like they just won a gold medal in the Special Olympics.
For fuck's sake, why can't that just be par for the course? Because we are a bunch of selfish assholes and need to get over ourselves and just be nice and do what's right and good in stead of what immediately benefits us. Maybe then we wouldn't be staring in the face of another financial meltdown and government shutdown. Ha, what am I talking about? That's so silly. Gee whiz. Rabble-B

The Gateway Meat
I would be willing to bet that bacon, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, bacon... accounts for converting more vegetarians to the darkside than all other meats combined. No one can escape bacon. Bacon could make eating gravel sound like a good idea. Imagine bacon wrapped gravel balls. Yeah! So anyone thinking about returning to the world of meat, make it easy and grab a BLT. Anyone thinking about going meatless, it's time for some bacon wrapped quail breast. FYI, I'm not talking about Canadian Bacon of any type, or ham, as it's actually called. I mean bacon. Greasy, chewy, crunchy, kinda fatty, chompy bacon. Rabble-B

Non Athletic Sport Causing Adult Retardation
Or, as most people know it, NASCAR. A new NASCAR track opened in Kentuckey this weekend. I guess, the drive to the track from nearby towns like Loiusville, that normally takes about an hour and a half, took EIGHT HOURS! Ahaaahahhhaaaa. You've got to be kidding me. I cannot think of a worse way to spend my time than on a freeway that more resembles a parking lot on the way to a NASCAR race. What a fucking joke. I'd rather let a naked mole rat suckle my teat while shoveling elephant shit at the zoo for 8 hours than spend that time driving to a NASCAR race. That's what you get for going to a NASCAR event, all 107,000 of you. Sheesh. Rabble-B

Speedway Motor Bruton Smith was kidding when he said he expected most fans to return home from the track's inaugural NASCAR Sprint Cup race on Saturday night ''by Tuesday.''
Considering how difficult it was for people to get into the track, Tuesday may have been a bit generous.
The 1.5-mile oval's long-awaited Cup debut was marred by a massive traffic snarl that left fans stuck out on Interstate 71 for miles even as the green flag dropped. Cars were still slowly streaming into the parking gates more than 125 miles into the 400-mile event as nearby interstate turned into a massive parking lot.
Even those that made it to their seats well before the race were less than thrilled.
Randy Meyer and his brother Mark needed nearly eight hours to make the trip from Batesville, Ind., normally a 90-minute drive.
''It was a nightmare,'' Randy Meyer said. ''I go to Indy every year for the (Indy) 500 and I've never seen anything this bad.''
Track officials laid out explicit traffic plans in the weeks leading up to the race. Yet with a sellout crowd of 107,000 expected, many of them making their first trip to the area, it got messy. Really messy.
''Sure it was worse,'' said track general manager Mark Simendinger. ''I knew we were going to have heavy traffic because of our turnout and the venue that we have and we were prepared for that, but clearly it was even beyond what we had anticipated.''
Smith has been complaining about the infrastructure for weeks. On Friday he called 71 ''the worst section of interstate highway in America.''
It sure looked like it to Steve Wolf. The well-traveled NASCAR fan from Cincinnati called the drive to the track the worst he's ever seen.
''I've been to Indy, Talladega, Daytona, Texas, just all over,'' Wolf said. ''This, this is bad.''
The traffic didn't spare the drivers either.
Denny Hamlin grew so bored as his entourage waded through the gridlock he decided to play a version of ''Where's Denny?'' and offered the first fan to find him $20.
''Good news, bad news,'' Hamlin tweeted. ''I'm prolly not gonna make the drivers meeting in 3 hrs because I'm in this traffic with everyone else. ... Good news is I'm starting in the back anyway.''
Smith said he has written Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear a note asking him to take a look at the situation. The state has already spent millions expanding 71 to three lanes going north. Doing the same south toward Louisville might be a good idea. It took nearly four hours for Mike Logan to cover the 13 miles from his hotel in Carrollton to the track.
''People told me south of the track was better,'' said Logan, who is from St. Louis. ''If it is, I'd hate to see what happened to those folks coming the other way.''

Badass
This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. And now I am hungry. Rabble-B
In this photo taken Saturday, July 2, 2011, a group carries the top bun for the World's Largest Commercially Available Hamburger at the Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton, Calif.
Here’s an opponent even competitive eating champion Joey Chestnut couldn’t beat. The world’s largest burger made its debut Saturday at the Alameda County Fair in California, coming in at a whopping 777 pounds. Guinness World Records officials were on hand to verify that the burger indeed deserved the title, beating the previous Canadian record-holder by 187 pounds. Created by Juicy’s LLC, the gargantuan “Juicy’s Outlaw Burger” took 14 hours to cook and ended up feeding hundreds of fairgoers for 99 cents a pop.
Here’s a breakdown to help wrap your brain around the 1,375,000-calorie meat monstrosity:
Now that's a whopper! World's largest burger weighs 777 lbs.

George Lucas will probably sue me for this
Some bar owner in New York City wanted to host a screening at his bar of all the Star Wars films back to back and invite his customers and Star Wars fans to join. He did not plan on charging money for it, rather he just wanted to watch them all in succession because he'd never done it before.
George Lucas, the world's biggest ass and champion of ruining a good time (not to mention ruining his own films by adding and/or deleting material and only re-releasing the new versions from then on) got wind of it and Lucasfilms sent a cease and desist letter to the bar. Apparently there is a moratorium on any public screenings of any of the Star Wars films. Wow! You, Georgie, are a huge, ego maniacal control freak. Good job on fucking up a lot of folks' day. I'm pretty sure you just lost some fans and probably future revenue. You are a moron. Rabble-B

My Bones!
So would you rather have bones or an exo-skeleton?
So with bones your body can get cut and bruised, maybe break a bone. It's not life threatening but it can be painful and slow you down. But, if you really get messed up and break a bunch of bones and blow up your pancreas or something you're toast, or at least a vegetable. With an exo-skeleton it's difficult to hurt yourself. You can blast around all over the place bouncing off of stuff, doing backflips onto the sidewalk and keep on truckin' without worry. Until you crack your exo-skeleton and all your goo leaks out and you die (think about the last bug you stepped on). I'm just asking which is better, I'm not sure I'm convinced either way. Maybe just being a pile gelatinous ooze is better, nothing to break. Great, except kids poking you with sticks all the time. Rabble-B
