If you enjoy random humor, you should check out Strong Bad checking his e-mails. It’s hilarious and definitely random. You never know what he will say or how he will say it. It’s one of those series where the more you watch it, the more you like it, because you get to know the characters and the inside jokes. There’s also some other good material on that site, if you like this sort of thing.

And if you don’t like random humor, why are you here in the first place?

Why bother with tests and classes when you can get a college diploma based on your present knowledge and life experience?  Does this sound too good to be true?  Of course it is.  But not according to this spam e-mail I actually received, which claims to offer the easy way to get a diploma.

I didn't know a university diploma earned you "the admiration of all"…  I think mine didn't come with that feature…  I want a refund… 

Earlier today there was a discussion via e-mail about what you should do if you are walking down the street and you see your evil twin… At first it was said that you should probably battle him to the death.  But then we thought you should try to convert him first (that is, if he's not destined to always be your evil twin).  If you can convert him, there'd be two of your (basically), and you could accomplish twice as much.  And you could make him do all the boring & mundane chores like laundry and cleaning, so you can focus on better tasks.  Although, perhaps that's why he became evil in the first place… 🙂

Then the conversation took another twist with this nugget of randomness :

But the larger question is, if you have an evil twin, could you also have a triplet of non-specific moral alignment?  'Cause if there were three of me, I'd have fun with it.  For example, all drive the same color/model car, and go through a drive through.  That'd make someone have a surreal day.

There's definitely a lot of potential for fun if there's three of me…

And on a different note, "triplet of non-specific moral alignment" is a pretty cool phrase.

I've decided to boycott Daylight Savings Time this year…  So let it be known that henceforth I shall be one hour late to everything until this debacle of time management ends.
