 Far too often do we over exaggerate the good and neglect the bad within ourselves. Autonomy is one of the most important differences between men and animals. Take a nice long look at what you do to take full advantage of the one true gift that we all hold: the opportunity to positively affect the world around us, providing aide and support to those who need it. As cliché as it may sound, fight the good fight, man. Step in front of the nearest mirror and ask yourself, “What am I doing to help those who need it?”. Here's your mirror, America. Stop abusing your privileges; they only exist because others don't have them. Start consciously critiquing the world around you, looking for the moments and actions that favor one group of people and destroy another. This issue's... issue is on one of these moments: young black men are being shot down by white officers of the law... ALL THE TIME. You've heard the stories and read the headlines, as have I. “Black Cop Shot by White Officer”, “Police Killing of 12-Year-Old DeAunta Terrell Farrow”, “Cops in Three Cities Gunned Down Black Men”, “Cop Will Not Be Charged in Fatal Shooting of Black Officer”, and so forth and so on. Many many more accounts of this scenario can be found in any newspaper's archived documents. Let's flip this around. WHITE MEN ARE GUNNED DOWN BY BLACK OFFICERS. What-the-f*ck?! For real? Even if this situation were to happen, the officers responsible would be put to death or in the very least, jailed for a long time. However, back in the real world, the officers at fault are typically lightly reprimanded or suspended for a few weeks, but their lives aren't ruined. I'm not asking you to start a “war on the pigs”. I'm not telling you that all cops are horrible people. I just want you to pay more attention to the situations that we encounter every day. Things that have become so commonplace that to do some role swapping completely shakes the foundation of the world. I mean, for real... WHITE MEN ARE GUNNED DOWN BY BLACK OFFICERS. What-the-f*ck?! By putting that tool into your box, you can more easily avoid using your privileges for bad and start enhancing the world in which you live. Good luck. Add Comment They say that love is blind. Well, I think that just the opposite is true. Love lets you see people in their most perfect condition. You see beyond the flaws. You see them as better than they see themselves. It’s like sleeping with your contacts in. The night before, maybe you’re too lazy or tired to take them out, then you wake up the next morning and they’re sticky and cloudy and maybe there are some eye boogers floating around. Just generally uncomfortable. Then you take them out and clean them and you can see clearly again. But then, every once in a while it will happen again, and it’s nobody’s fault but your own. You could have taken them out, let your eyes rest for the night. But no, you were too excited about snuggling up in bed to be bothered with saline solution. After carrying on with this kind of behavior for too long, your eyes will probably get infected, swollen, red. You’ll need to go to the doctor, but oh no your insurance doesn’t cover Vision, so now what? You get some generic drops from the drug store and hope that you can self-medicate the problem away? Not gonna happen. Without proper treatment you could risk significant permanent damage. You should probably keep a spare pair of lenses around, just to be on the safe side. Your Inbox 06/09/2010

I've never met "Spooky Chick" in person, but through her words I feel as if I've known her my whole life. From reading her many reviews I know that she is a big boned middle aged woman who hopes to have children of her own some day. She seems to love chocolate, sex toys, baby sitting, and g-d. Here is her story told through her medium of choice: the Amazon.com customer review. Corn 5.0 / 5 stars Corn: A staple of everyone's healthy diet I love this kind of sweet corn, suckas! Corn is the one vegetable that I would literally die for. Sometimes I prepare it plain, sometimes I will just slather the heck out of it with butter or a butter-substitute. When I am really ready to live on the proverbial edge, I will send my sodium levels SKY high and just shake the ever-loving crap out of my salt-shaker. Yumm to the Nth degree, y'all! Tampax Tampons (Lites) 5.0 / 5 stars Good for young teens! I know for a fact these are perfect for those new to the curse! I've made a great hullabaloo in many reviews about my "other job": babysitting my friend's daughters. I sure as h-e-l-l want a couple rugrats myself, but haven't met Mr. Dreamboat (aka Studmeister!). It'll happen. But as for this product from Tampax, they are really well-suited to, you guessed it, teens. I had to insert it for Jane (not her real name) the first time, as her mom was unavailable and it was fair to call that an emergency. She's gotten the hang of it since then, but has still not learned to dispose of them properly (another story!). Apocalypse Apparel 06/09/2010

Some would wonder from the title of this article how I could string together these seemingly separate events. Each of these events have had their own type of perpetrators, motives, and victims. They range from minimal property damage to cataclysm of global proportions. But a quick look at deeper research raises questions at minimum.
The Underwear Bomber, aka Umar Farouk Abdulmatallab, is a 24 year-old Nigerian citizen who allegedly attempted to detonate a small amount of plastic explosives hidden in his underwear, tucked under his testicles in an attempt to bring down Northwest Airlines Flight 253, en route from Amsterdam to Detroit. Fortunately, his incendiary was unable to fully ignite leaving light damage to the fuselage of the plane and 3rd degree burns in some very sensitive areas on Umar. That is the official line. An eyewitness named Kurt Haskell was aboard Flight 253. He describes something very different. He claims that Umar was led aboard the flight without a ticket or passport by a "sharped dressed man" of Indian descent who flashed some credentials to the woman at the gate. After Haskell had boarded the flight, he noticed a different man on the flight who had a video camera trained on Umar from takeoff to ignition. The plane made an emergency landing and the passengers were lead into a customs area of the airport and received their luggage. An hour later, bomb sniffing dogs arrived and alerted on the bag of a different middle aged Indian man. He was taken away and the other passengers were encouraged by an FBI agent to evacuate for their safety. These events lead me to believe that this was a drill attempting to test the weaknesses of security that actually detonated the small sample of C4 that was to be detected. That would explain the man video recording the incident and why he was not ordered to turn off his electrical device. It would also explain the other Indian man who was not mentioned in the media before Kurt Haskell was called a liar by the FBI. This drill went live for two reasons: maintain the fear quotient in America and to sell America on the naked body scanners being installed in most large airports. Apocalypse Apparel 06/09/2010

Hey there friends. The new Spit Take issue is less than a week away from hitting the streets of Atlanta. Expect more comics, more parody, and more side splitting gags! Less crosswords though. We try to be perfect for you, but sometimes crossword writers have babies and are all "busy" and excuse excuse. Expect a slightly move visually appealing website to pop up in the future as well! Oh the things you will see! -Editing Master Red A Note 03/16/2010
Dear Censorship, Back off! I’m an artist, so we are enemies. As an artist, I am creating a world where you are quarantined from everything scary, different, and unexpected. A cold, sterile room, far away from the troubadours and balladeers of this crazy world, where you can be safe. You can still exist, but only as an example of something bad. But this begs the question, have you crept into this very note?? Am I Censoring Censorship??!! D*&% your inevitability! F&*% your necessity! O the Humanity! Curse this existence...Feelings, trust me... it's time. W.B.R.H. |  CategoriesAll   |
