If Oscar Wilde had lived in our time, he would be a /b/tard.

Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

I'm including the Brits, yes. Though the Greeks and Romans are more precursors to our literature, I think.

It is easy yet not completely correct to assume that a majority agrees with you.

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.

Anime is perhaps the most disgusting form of art ever conceived. It should not surprise us that anime was invented during the Nazi period, when the Japanese worshiped the sun and committed genocide against their Japanese brothers in Manchuria. According to biologists at the University of Michigan, anime indeed derives from mental defects in the Japanese. For example, “When a character gets extremely mad at something, a stylized vein might appear on their forehead or fist.” This is said by the UM biologists to be “[not realistic],” who quote Kurt Hoffman as saying that “this gets carried to extremes, as in the manga where an identical vein pops up three different places on the back of a guy’s hand.” A much more perverse example is the “bloody nose” in anime. Consider the findings of the UM researchers:

A bloody nose doesn’t mean that a character is actually injured – rather, it means that he (the afflicted character is seldom a she) is thinking lustful thoughts and/or looking at a beautiful woman. But what does the bloody nose have to do with lust? Gilles Portras, author of The Anime Companion, wondered the same thing: “So I asked a few Japanese and got a variety of pseudo-scientific, and occasionally embarrassed, explanations about humidity and blood pressure. But the best response I got was from one fellow who simply recounted that when he was a child he was told by his mother that if he stared at a pretty woman he would get a bloody nose.”

Do a google search for The Mismeasure of Asians: The Definitive Refutation to the Conjectures of the Bell Curve. It is not a good idea to link to it.

I dunno, that bloody nose thing sounds barely logical...

You can't even write racist abuse in excrement on somebody's car without the politically correct brigade jumping down your throat!

If you stare at a pretty woman, you'll get a nosebleed.

Because she will punch you in the face.

Letting the oil gush into the Atlantic is the same as letting trees grow in a forest, or playing Frisbee, or birds building nests. No one but me seems to realize that “pollution” is an incoherent notion.

I don't know how he's reaching these conclusions, mostly because I'm too afraid to retrace his steps.
