New York Times Punked Yet Again
Posted on April 01, 2011Last year, the New York Times was taken in by an April Fool's Day joke. You'd have thought they'd have learned their lesson. Yet those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it, and so the New York Times was punked yet again. Popehat has the details.

Why Are Liberals Such Moronic Pussies?
Posted on March 31, 2011San Francisco is a liberal city. Liberals claim to have more nuanced views on the world. If that's so, why can't liberals read between the line of this story: Violent thugs push, tackle and otherwise abuse victims for loot A rash of violent robberies plagued different parts of The City on Wednesday as thugs pushed, tackled and threw their victims...
Beta Male Slaves
Posted on March 30, 2011Some meddling bitch wants basketball hoops removed, so god dammit men, you'd better get to moving them. You're fucking revolting supplicants (the male cop and male construction workers probably don't even have sex with their own wives), and I can't wait to be out of this piece of shit country and away from you...
Weight-Life Balance
Posted on March 30, 2011One very intelligent movement has had disastrous implications. Like many realizations, this occurred to me at the gym. I was at the gym last Saturday. You know who else was there? The same people who are there - and who look good - during the week. Success takes vacations, but successful people rarely take a full weekend off...
Seven Year Itch
Posted on March 29, 2011Someone will say: Yes, Socrates, but cannot you hold your tongue, and then you may go into a foreign city, and no one will interfere with you? Now I have great difficulty in making you understand my answer to this. For if I tell you that this would be a disobedience to a divine command, and therefore that I cannot...

Dilbert Comic Guy Beaten Into Submission
Posted on March 28, 2011Here's afraid of Jezebel readers. Jezebel once linked to a post and sent its readers to attack me. I made them all cry. One "man" said, "You must have a small penis." I edited the comment to say, "I have a small penis." When he posted another comment crying about my edit, I edited that comment to say, "Please hate...

Approaching Androgyny?
Posted on March 26, 2011I guarantee these chicks work out harder than 90% of the "game bloggers" who constantly bitch about "fat American women" and "the decline of masculinity." What percentage of The Spearhead's readership could finish this workout? Five percent?
What a Statutory Rape "Victim" Looks Like
Posted on March 25, 2011Lawrency Taylor is a lifetime registered sex offender, as he had sex with an underage girl. The prostitute was only 16 when they had sex, which was below the agent of consent in New York. A picture of the girl has surfaced, and it should give every man pause...
Boring and Bitchy
Posted on March 24, 2011The beginning phase of a relationship is amazing. Everything is fun. There is little drama, and no one says, "Relationships take work." Instead, everything flows. Why do relationships later start becoming work? Men get boring and women get bitchy. A man's natural state is a cave dweller...
George Orwell on the Way Things Were (Or Are?)
Posted on March 24, 2011George Orwell is primarily known for Animal Farm and 1984. That's unfortunate, as his best work was as an essayist. Orwell, more than anyone since, understood how language was used to control thought. Today, for example, my friends are all throwing around "kinetic military action...

Daddy Issues
Posted on March 22, 2011God bless Jennifer Moses (via Partial Objects), for pondering two important existential questions: "What teenage girl doesn't want to be attractive, sought-after and popular? And what mom doesn't want to help that cause?" In the pale-turquoise ladies' room, they congregate in front of the mirror, re-applying mascara and lip gloss, brushing their hair, straightening panty hose and gossiping: This one...
DUI PSA
Posted on March 22, 2011The GAO put out a fascinating report on drunk driving, which contained this interesting statement: "Overall, the evidence does not conclusively establish that .08 BAC laws, by themselves, result in reductions in the number and severity of alcohol-related crashes...
Do Any Alpha Males Practice Family Law?
Posted on March 21, 2011One of my favorite blogs, In Mala Fide, is seeking donations. I'll toss the guy a few bucks because he adds value to the Internet, and I already spend a grip on magazine subscriptions. What's a few bucks more? Yet I wondered something. Why aren't any family lawyers advertising on his or other pro-men sites? Are there no men who...
Devaluing Knowledge Leads to Two-Tier Information Society
Posted on March 20, 2011A rich friend complained about low energy, and overall lack of vigor. Assuming that he knew about such things, I asked him about his Androgel dosage. "Androgel?" "What's that," he asked. "Dude, aren't you on Testosterone Replacement Therapy?" He "doesn't fuck his his hormones or any shit like that," and I stopped playing Evangelist years ago...
Casey Heynes Interview (The Bully Victim Who Fought Back)
Posted on March 20, 2011The saddest and most insightful line from this interview: "School ain't gonna last forever," which was Heynes' advise on how to deal with bullying, and also an indictment of the prison rules style of Western education.
District Attorney George Gascón is a Racist

Judge Denise L. Cote: Applying for a Job at Goldman Sachs?
Posted on March 19, 2011Although federal judges are given life tenure, many keep their eyes on the private sector - and few firms pay better than Goldman Sachs.

My Supplement Chest, Annotated: Part 3 (Acetylcysteine)
Posted on March 18, 2011I initially started taking n-acetyl-l-cysteine for its chelating effects. N-acetyl-l-cysteine (N-A-C) binds with heavy metals like lead and mercury, thus eliminating them from the body. Living in a polluted world, we are loaded with heavy metals. Thus, I reasoned, N-A-C would help as an overall detoxying agent...
Dishes in the Sink
Posted on March 18, 2011I had a humorous discussion with a female friend recently. She's pretty, has a career, and is single at 41-years old. I told her that she was an incessant nag, and thus no man worth having would be in a relationship with her. "Men with options," I explained, "don't put up with bullshit...
