Smart kids are more likely to become drunks

Are you drunk right now? If you're reading this when I first posted it (around 9 in the morning), you're an alcoholic and should seek help. If you're drunk at a reasonable hour, then you might be a genius! A study at the University of Glasgow shows a correlation between high IQs and having a drinking problems.

If you want to seem smart, hit the bottle, brother. Plus, it's Halloween so you have a legitimate excuse.

Matt88 says
I'm a fucking genius!!
yz101 says
smart = college = drinking = ...
SuburbianMike says

notfromoklahoma asks
Isn't polling Scots about drunkenness like going to McDonald's to ask if people like McNuggets?

Social networking sites more popular than porn

First the Playboy Mansion layoffs, now porn is losing out to Facebook? What has this world come to?

staplemaniac explains the phenomenon
One is used for jerkin it
One is used for finding someone to jerk it for ya
BTConan replies
You are a master of the English language.
socivitus says
This whole "social" thing the web is going through is just a phase. Back in '99 it used to be cool to have flashing images all over your site, that faded out. Porn on the other hand has never loss its stride.
l3asketCase says
Jerking off to the girl my my American Lit class is way better than doing it to girls I don't know.

40 unwritten rules to live by

Men's Health puts together a pretty stupid list of male virtues. One of them is "easy on the mayo." No joke.

ScottMitchell says
Despite the article's title, there were 40 rules written down on the page, plain as day. Unwritten, my ass.

Ducks' Todd Marchant scores crazy goal


At least, I think it's a crazy goal. It says it's a crazy goal.

I'm more impressed that professional hockey still exists.

Benjamintc says
Nifty how he made the puck completely invisible.
ABadPerson replies
Only Canadians can see the puck.
Clancycoop says
I had to deduce from the announcer's excitement that something cool actually happened.

Bogus: Sarah Palin: If ice melts, polar bears can adapt

The English newspaper Telegraph printed — or rather, posted; I'm not sure if this made it into the paper — a bogus quote from Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin. "These magnificent, cuddly white bears are doing just fine and don't need our protection," Palin supposedly said. "If the ice melts, they'll adapt to living on the land."

The statement was, in fact, too dumb to be true. Yes, even for a Republican, who was found wearing a scarf promoting the Democrat donkey symbol (left). The Telegraph didn't respond for comment, but they did revise the original story, acknowledging the quote's inaccuracy.

But let's pretend it was real because the comments are funnier that way.

CabanaBoy says
Perhaps they can adapt to eat Republican Vice-president candidates...

'I am under 18' button clicked for first time in history

Anything better than the Onion or porn? What about an Onion article about porn. Oh, yes.

jenel asks
So, who else went to juggworld.com just after reading the article?

(fun fact: it doesn't actually have an "I'm under 18" button)
iDiggIt42 replies
However, I am not disappointed by the content.

Lucas and Spielberg rape Indiana Jones on South Park

If you happened to miss the South Park season premiere a couple weeks ago (and if you did, you suck), here's the highlight of the episode. Lucas' face during the pinball scene is absolutely priceless.

Aguyinachair asks
Was anyone unnerved by those rape scenes in that episode? Usually I'm for South Park, but something about those clips made me really uneasy...maybe I'm just a wuss.

Barack Obama's health care for small businesses


In the final debate, Barack Obama details how much small-business Joe (who I assume is this Joe Six-pack I'm hearing all about, but I didn't actually see this debate) will have to pay in fines under his health care plan. John McCain seems to respond, "Oh, that sounds pretty sweet!"

kezia1 says
Wha-Wha-Whaaaaa?
Fordi says
I think he was trying to look incredulous - but McCain doesn't have a lot of expressive capability, so it just came out as 'dumbfounded'.
rmtamm says
He averages two blinks per second throughout the entire clip!

Suicide is not funny

Case in point: an AIM conversation that probably should have been taken seriously. But I guess that's why there are suicide hotlines — most people on the Internet are douche bags.

Game consoles stored in GameStop bathroom

Having worked at a major game retailer for a couple months, I can tell you from first hand experience that keeping merchandise in the employee bathroom is nothing out of the ordinary. These stores only have so much space in the back for everything, and spillover into the bathroom is sometimes unavoidable.

We kept some of the refurbished systems in the bathroom. So if that grosses you out, you might want to only buy new — or from a store with unlimited spacial resources, like Wal-Mart or something.

Hugh Hefner lays off Playboy bunnies amidst financial crisis


The collapse of the financial sector ain't got nothing on the tragedy that has befallen the Playboy Mansion. Hugh Hefner has been forced to cut back on staff due to the tough economic situation. When will the injustices end? When, I ask?!

Free stuff

Women's publications generally aren't my go-to source for guidance, but this one has a nifty list of stuff you can get for free that you would never have expected were free. And Digg users had some additional things to add to that list.

psykiv reminisces
Back in the day: Free money ala alladvantage and desktopdollars
Free internet through netzero
free 1 800 number through ureach
free webspace: angelfire, tripod
free domains: (there was one, but forgot the name)

I remember there was even one for a free car (although you were basically driving around a giant billboard, and you have to pay the gas and insurance)

Real age dog chart


Turns out your dog's age isn't as simple as multiply by seven. Its size is a significant factor once it comes to ages past two.

pdizz says

This is messed up. I've always gone by the 1:7 ratio and given that assumption I wont let my dog drink beer until he's three years old. Now this chart says he could have been drinking since he was about 1 yr 8 mo old. I'm going to give him a beer and an apology as soon as I get home.

Gargilius replies

I barely dare to ask what you did to celebrate your dog's second and a half anniversary...

DIGGISRUNBYTHEGOVT says

I've never seen a 60 year old man run down a football field and back to catch a ball and run all the way back to retrieve it. How does this age thing get calculated anyways? :-)

EA class action lawsuit over Spore SecuROM DRM

A class action lawsuit is being brought against Electronic Arts, the publisher of the highly anticipated PC game Spore. Seems they pissed off one too many people with the SecuROM digital rights management technology that makes resale of the game nearly impossible. It's not just that, but they don't really tell you about the DRM when you buy it.

This is shaping up to be very, very reminiscent of the Sony rootkit case of a couple years ago.

Croecop says
DRM is like taking two cocks in the ass at the same time, but not regular cocks, I'm talking the huge porno sized ones.
