And then combine that with that wind-powered water collector thing.

I really feel like that is a sketch.

Also, it's thousands of years old and supposedly also imitates the phonetics of Spanish?

I also don't see how one could distinguish what someone is "whistling", the only thing you would be able to notice differences in would be pitch.

Wonderful Russian pop song about Putin -

Amazing. There are people stupid enough to be scammed twice by the same god-damn thing.

Was it extremely hyped up?

Actually good song, better if you can understand/look up the real lyrics and know the context of the movie by the same name.

Serial ferret killings higher than ever...

also, this article demonstrates more hippy idiocy... 

"All serial killers “started with animals,” she says. “It’s a documented fact."

"One indignant writer argued via e-mail that the ferret deaths should have evoked the same outrage as if a similar number of preschoolers had been murdered at a day-care center."

"Smith equates the ferret deaths with coming home and finding that some fiend had killed “your entire family."

"Why does society draw “the line between two-legged and four-legged?” asks Serena Kilmer. “A life’s a life."

Christ...

Oh I should have told everyone, you can get fucking banned for posting rap battles. 

Oh, ok.

Anyways, happy first day of Saturnalia.

What these fucking peasants don't realize is that if your bank is a gold-house or your Political Action Committee is called an althing, you're gonna sound like a pretentious idiot. "I'm forward-thinking on taking a trip to see my elder-mother" Fucking stop.
