Watch the US pres debates on Xbox Live, get a free...
The presidential and vice presidential debates begin this Wednesday, and if you want to watch them, Microsoft is offering a bit of incentive. If you watch the debates through Xbox Live, you’ll get a free Halo 4 suit for your avatar. It’s not like a huge, wonderful prize, but I watched the RNC and DNC conventions via Xbox Live, and I recommend it over cable news. It’s just the...

Here's a look at what Apple's iPad mini might look...
Now that the iPhone 5 has come out, the Apple rumor mill is surprisingly silent since there had been earlier reports that Apple would be introducing an iPad mini sometime in October. This fake mock-up of an iPad mini is so far the only leak that’s made it out, so an iPad that would compete head-to-head in price and size with the Kindle Fire is still just a rumor.[[MORE]]

All about "smiles", the drug that may have killed...
When Sons of Anarchy actor Johnny Lewis died a couple days ago, it appears that he may have been on smiles, a synthetic drug from the 1990s that’s been making a comeback. It’s called “smiles” because it makes you giddy and happy and is a mild hallucinogen. So it’s kinda sorta like weed… and what’s wrong with weed? You know how many people have died from...

sextruck asked: I found your article on liquor poured over women's breasts very funny, as I have been buying my nacho cheese from a very similar vendor for years.
mondak asked: Got into a discussion with the wife and kid about what is a projectile weapon (kid is 7). After standard stuff like bows and guns were covered, I asked if a sci-fi laser gun counted as a projectile weapon. We were undecided since photons might be projectiles. I let them know that my friends at IHC could come to a clear answer on this if we asked.

This situation is known as the heat death of the universe, and at that point, nothing will be left. Except perhaps this...
