great day for online reading

Vox Day once again lays down some humor at the expense of one of the many groups of idiots in today's world. It'd be even more humorous if it didn't hit so close to the truth. Though it's missing the context of the full post, here's the good part:

It's a bit late for the suffrage thing, but attendance at a Take Back the Night rally ought to be good for at least five lashes. With an extra two lashes for every lighted candle.

I can't wait until women hold the White House and have the majority of the House and Senate. That will mark the end of the pendulum's swing, because within six months, they'll have passed enough Nanny State laws to spark violent rebellions from Maine to Baja California. I don't know what they'll ban first, football, strippers, beer, or video games, or if they'll just pass a general law banning "fun", defined as anything that could potentially risk physical harm or male enjoyment, but you know it will make Prohibition look like a libertarian convention held in Amsterdam.

It's a bit Leninesque, I know, but the sooner we can get this equalitarian cycle over with, the better.

I love Vox.

And Fred's article on comic books and schools is one of the most impressive smackdowns of public education I've read in a long time -- required reading for anyone who wishes to grasp how useless the system truly is. I'd even say it's one of Fred's best. Yeah, that's really saying a lot.
