A few nights ago, Paul sent me these three fun tidbits:

  • The “blog” of “unnecessary” quotation marks (Augh, the use of scare quotes for “emphasis” makes my hair curl!)
  • A silly bumper sticker for atheists
  • 20 worst Engrish signs

    Plus, Flibbert recently wrote a lengthy post on a book that I recommended a while back, namely Robert Mayhew’s Ayn Rand and Song of Russia: Communism and Anti-Communism in 1940s Hollywood. (For the record, I disagree with Flibbert’s comments about the equal threat of religion versus communism. The fact that both yield statism in politics doesn’t show that one ideology isn’t more dangerous — i.e. more durable, totalistic, and inspirational of fervent belief — than the other. That more dangerous threat is religion. Then again, I might not be understanding Flibbert correctly, as his comments were a tad rambling.)

    Update: Flibbert posts a clarificatory post.
