Cracked always has something funny to say.  Their coverage of 9/11 truthers is brilliant This piece on Apple is funny too, although the best part by far is the comments.

5 Reasons You Should Be Scared of Apple | Cracked.com

But recently, a faint chorus has been growing--thousands of tech geeks suggesting that if you look under Apple's shiny white veneer, you'll find some practices that are less than user friendly. In fact, some of the things Jobs and Apple are being accused of are so over the top, Lex Luthor would have to take off his hat ... and then use it to cover the dark stain spreading across the front of his pants.

From McSweeney's - Unused Audio Commentary by Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky, Recorded for the Return of the King

CHOMSKY: If that. It has all the characteristics of a classic fetish object. It's ludicrous to believe that this ring, or any ring, is indeed a "ring of power"—whatever that could mean—or that it, as an inanimate object, is "evil," or, indeed, that the fate of Middle Earth depends upon its destruction. We are supposed to accept this because Gandalf has recounted a couple of legends of dubious legitimacy. As we will discuss, the truthfulness of these legends is highly suspect, bound as they are in a conspiracy to keep the indigenous beings of Middle Earth under Elvish thrall. Hobbits, a race hopelessly addicted to pipe-weed, are, from Gandalf's perspective, the ideal example of a malleable native people. How fitting that they are selected as the "bearers" of this worthless bit of jewelry.

ZINN: Exactly. All Hobbits really do is abuse substances, sweep their porches, and march to the orders of their colonial overlords.

Evolutionists Flock To Darwin-Shaped Wall Stain | The Onion - America's Finest News Source

A steady stream of devoted evolutionists continued to gather in this small Tennessee town today to witness what many believe is an image of Charles Darwin—author of The Origin Of Species and founder of the modern evolutionary movement—made manifest on a concrete wall in downtown Dayton.

"I brought my baby to touch the wall, so that the power of Darwin can purify her genetic makeup of undesirable inherited traits," said Darlene Freiberg, one among a growing crowd assembled here to see the mysterious stain, which appeared last Monday on one side of the Rhea County Courthouse. The building was also the location of the famed "Scopes Monkey Trial" and is widely considered one of Darwinism's holiest sites. "Forgive me, O Charles, for ever doubting your Divine Evolution. After seeing this miracle of limestone pigmentation with my own eyes, my faith in empirical reasoning will never again be tested."

Just then Jack the brindle bulldog barked. A man Laura and Mary had never seen before rode up on a mule.

"Hullo, Edwards!" Pa sang out. "Caroline, this is our neighbor, Mr. Edwards. I met him yesterday down at the creek. Mr. Edwards is a wildcat mortgage broker from Tennessee. He is going to finance our house for us!"

"I am pleased to meet you, ma'am," Mr. Edwards said, bowing. "And I'm tickled to be able to offer you and your husband the finest 5/1 negative-amortization loan this side of the Mississippi!"
