    Until I see proof that vaginas can fly open like portcullises, I'm calling fake on this one.

    OH NO IT CUT OFF!!!!!11one//

    Honestly: Cock Paper made me laugh out loud. And the dollar bill thing had me SUPER excited. Until i found out that they're actually 6.14 inches. So.

    Liar.

    For the longest time, I thought that Merlin was just being a *little* too cynical about this stuff, but then I saw this at the top of Lifehacker one day: bit.ly/turbochargeyourworkflow

    Dammit. He was right all along.

    in all fairness to lifehacker, i think it's still a fantastic site - but in order to keep up with this breakneck speed of the internet they feel the need to post
    a) on a broad range of topics (like workspaces...)
    b) a lot
    granted, I'm the first to complain when I go to a blog and there's nothing new to read, but im also the first to complain when I go to a blog and what I read isn't great. there's no real happy medium.

    that being said: there have been plenty of valuable posts on lifehacker. there's also been a lot of crap. but the same can be said for anything: lifehacker, engadget, the new york times, even 43 folders.

    that said, no one is forcing you to read the stuff. so I dunno.

    that said, merlin is high-larious.

    I can almost cut down to a 4 hour work week with hacks like that!

    Ahahaha, this is like a really pissed off wannabe version of Ze Frank, like really pissed off and disenchanted with the world hahaha. Like a guy that's this far from sinking a whole bottle of whiskey in a sitting and ending it with a handgun.

    ...and then just like that within the final TWO SECONDS of the video, pretty much entirely redeems himself, so, so good. Wow. God damn it. I wanted to hate you. I wanted to hate you so bad and you wouldn't let me, you bastard :P hahaha.

    That'd be a terrible waste of whiskey, sports racers.

    I got confused when you held up a hose-handled-nostril-cleaner and referred to it as an electric cord. I'll have to look into that. Other than that, great job!

    The thing everyone is missing here: WHAT HAPPENED WITH YOUR HAIR?! I didn't pay any attention to what you were saying, because I was constantly looking at the boyish "coupe".

    Sorry, guys. Cutting over to friends-only comments. Spammers found me (no, not Gias, he's just filing a bug report). My apologies.
