"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."

Nine naked Men just walking down the road will cause a heap of trouble for all concerned.

QuoteAre you, like me, puzzled to learn that Popular Science magazine recently shut down comments on its website, declaring that they were bad for science? Are you amazed, like me, that Duck Dynasty is the most-watched nonfiction cable show in TV history? Are you dismayed, like me, that crappy Hollywood films about comic book heroes and defunct TV shows have taken over every movie theater? Are you depressed, like me, that symphony orchestras are declaring bankruptcy, but Justin Bieber earned $58 million last year?

If so, you need to read The Revolt of the Masses. You've got questions. Ortega's got answers.

I'm torn between "this explains so much" and "this seems to be elitist whining."

Stopped right there.

Cain

What's really funny is that I've recently been re-reading Machiavelli's Discourses on Livy, and both it and Aristotle's Politics deal with the issue of elite versus mass opinion in a far more subtle and nuanced manner than this hamfisted attempt at spoonfeeding (probably misunderstood) philosophy to the masses.

HARIBO GUMMY BEARS

From the Most Helpful Customer Review by C. Torok:

QuoteThen came the, uh, flatulence. Heavens to Murgatroyd, the sounds, like trumpets calling the demons back to Hell...the stench, like 1,000 rotten corpses vomited. I couldn't stand to stay in one room for fear of succumbing to my own odors.

But wait; there's more. What came out of me felt like someone tried to funnel Niagara Falls through a coffee straw. I swear my sphincters were screaming. It felt like my delicate starfish was a gaping maw projectile vomiting a torrential flood of toxic waste. 100% liquid. Flammable liquid. NAPALM. It was actually a bit humorous (for a nanosecond)as it was just beyond anything I could imagine possible.

AND IT WENT ON FOR HOURS.
