"They say noise causes cancer"?

Actually, pretty close to 100% of the time if a statement starts with "They say", the rest of the statement is at best unprovable,but most likely obviously false.

like children (of which he has several) or pets (of which he somehow has none) or just about anyone (because he can only remember nicknames anyway).

"McTwiddles, Bigglesworth and Flatulovia said we should bomb the West Bank. Splatonio and Brobaticus disagreed, but they're clearly in the minority on that. Anyway, missiles launch in an hour."

of course, that scenario assumes he doesn't play favorites...

One left in blaze of misspelled glory and seething vitriol, taking her vast ignore list with her, the other still posts here from time to time. They ran a shitty little blog that purported to be a journalistic enterprise but was in fact a ridiculous joke.

by the orange anus' proclamation. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea that wind turbines could be toxic. Toxic?!
