I wrote an obnoxious Cracked topic embodying the very things they complain about, so I am pretty sure I qualify. Especially since I'm not 100% sure how much of it was satire and how much genuine.
Oooh!

Where's the link?

That bit from reddit was perhaps the best example I've ever seen of a pot informing a kettle that it has an extremely low albedo.

Well, I know I'm a prick.
You're not.

Or at least you don't act like one.
There's a difference between being and acting.

As a matter of fact, you do not act, nor are you in actuality, a prick.

Finals are merely the fire that tempers the steel. You will arise from the hard anvil of your desk, glowing with the inner fire of knowledge. And your hands may smoke slightly from writing so much so fast.



...I had a metaphor going here, but I think it went seriously off the rails.

Vector come on, I have my exams too, and now with depression, low expectations of myself, little sleep and generally worrying about my future.. But I still want to keep on going. And you're a smart person, so I know you will be fine.

Censor her with a burka drawn on, don't use the image, but shopping her out suggests that either she shouldn't be there or she held no importance. So long as there is some admittance to her being in her position seems like enough for me.
There seems to be an assumption that this was a Muslim newspaper.  It wasn't - it's (ultra-orthodox) Jewish.  I don't think adding a burqa would change anything (they don't seem to allow covered up women in their newspaper either anyway).

The photo at the top of the article was unnecessarily included for the purpose of inducing an emotional response from readers, or are you too weak willed and trusting to notice that?
It's almost as if it's an article written for a left wing blog by a left wing blogger for left wing readers, with an understanding among all parties that it is told from a left wing point of view.

I'm bored as hell. While just laying down, thinking, I realized how unfocused I am. Things bore me quickly, including a bunch of projects I wanted to do and several attempts at learning a programming language better than GML. Uhg...

It's 2:00 in the morning and I'm not tired.

Ohhh fuck! I'm messing up my sleeping patterns again.

For the 64th time.
