@Leviathen249,
A very well written and informative Cracked article. I've not seen one of those in a while. Most of them are about the "Top 10 Ways To Kill a Zombie" or likewise.
Don't get me wrong, I always find them funny, but some are obviously more intellectual than others, but still entertaining.
Concerning the Monkeysphere, I'm really glad that I read that. It now makes complete sense when I'm watching the news with my parents and I always seem to show a reasonable amout of apathy towards the more gruesome reports. Although, I believe the apathy is also linked to my mental disorders. Either way, it annoys my mum something awful!
