Day After Christmas
I didn’t know what I was doing. I had a list of things that needed to be accomplished, I had to get on the road. My step-dad had taken over the snow shovel for me, and he and my brother continued to clear the driveway while I went and sat on the porch to stare blankly at something.
The snow had stopped by then, and I was looking into the clean white world around me and painting all my...

Nothing like being awakened at 8am two days before Christmas by a debt collector calling from India, demanding to know your credit card number so they’ll stop harassing you and your parents to pay off a debt that only exists because Bank of America seriously fucked you over six years ago.
Not a god damn thing like it, internet friends.

I hate that I'm scared to write about this
Today’s Athens Banner-Herald (12.21.2010) had a front-page headline about a sheriff’s deputy who drunkenly beat his wife and locked her in a room, but she was able to get out briefly and call 911. When a police officer came to investigate, he arrested the man to take him to jail, whereupon the man (being very drunk and angry) resisted and vowed revenge of death on the officer whenever he...

The case was formally filed on Monday by Kareem Khan,...

If it’s nighttime and you’re wearing black shoes, black pants, and a black hoodie with the hood pulled over your head while you’re running across the street right in front of my car, don’t be surprised if I happen to run you over and kill you. It’s nothing personal, guys, it’s just that I’m probably going to kill you, and that’s just the way it is.

I’ve probably posted this at some point, but it’s worth posting again. I know it’s just a Cracked article, but it’s honestly really well written and a great introduction to the concept of Dunbar’s number.
Read it. I know it’s long, but it’s worth your time.
Great Cracked article, or greatest Cracked article?
