I remember reading about that furniture delivery murder some time ago. Totally bizarre. How does a dude go off and start shooting at the guys who are at his house to deliver furniture? You get the sense that we only know part of the story. The guy must be schizophrenic. You wonder how a guy like that was ever issued a firearm in the first place.

That last one is definitely not linked to the correct page... I expected man-titties but instead found bed bugs.

"THAT'S RIGHT!!! You deliver my sofa late again and I'll shoot two more of ya's. Damn delivery men. Who the hell they think they messing with?"

Chief Wiggum: Once he enters your home , you're legally allowed to do anything to him.

@Serolf Divad: Eh. Sometimes the temptation to peel a random delivery guy's cap can be overwhelming. This is why I always borrow my friend's truck when I go to IKEA.

@Serolf Divad:

Keith Washington has a long record of charges against him. He was originally the driver for the County Executive, iirc, which seemed to have given him a pass on most of his behavior.

Arjewtino hilariously defends the cookie story as his own, even though it's been published by Douglass Adams and has been around the world several times as a chain email. I'm gonna have to bookmark that site under Superficial in DC. Or would that be redundant?

That cookie story was totally plagiarized from a Douglass Adams book. He (Adams) even told it on Letterman once.
