coderman: "One of Central Florida's largest pest control companies has been recruited by police to help fight crime.. Technicians from Truly Nolen Pest Control of America are being trained by local law enforcement to spot anything unusual as they visit customer's homes. The pest control workers will call police if they see something unusual during their stops, according to the report."
coderman: the moral of this story is to NEVER LET THOSE BUG FUCKS INTO YOUR HOUSE!

coderman: "Arguing that quantum theory has progressive political implications, the paper claims the New Age concept of the morphogenetic field could be a cutting-edge theory of quantum gravity and concludes that since "physical 'reality' ... is at bottom a social and linguistic construct", a "liberatory science" and "emancipatory mathematics" must be developed that spurn "the elite caste['s] canon of 'high science'" - HAHAHAHA

coderman: " "We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability," Robertson said. "We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with."
coderman: wow, i suggest we start bustin' caps in idiot wingers instead.
