Edmund and Ulysses de Moulin’s Contribution to The World
From Futility Closet:
In 1900, evidently tired of initiating pledges by hand, Edmund and Ulysses de Moulin decided to automate the process.With their “initiating device,” the applicant is blindfolded, placed in position, and told to pull the handles to test his strength. When he does so, the paddle spanks him and an electric shock passes through his arms, “making the sensation rather unique.”

Strider’s got an awesome collection of crappy album covers, but he’s outdone himself. He’s got embedded audio for this gem, and one for the Michelin Man Record, both side by side on the same crappy post! Pure awesome.

Something Awesome Happened Today.
Remember the California kid who was suspended from school for having an AMERICAN FLAG on the back of his bike? The school was afraid that the kid’s display of OUR NATION’S FLAG might cause racial tensions. The story has an awesome outcome.

Meanwhile, something bad happened. A kid got slapped for getting out of line in Kansas City, MO. But that’s not the bad part. THIS IS. And it’s 40 page diatribe of serious insanity from the boy’s mother.
(Tip o’ the Tarboosh to Savage.)
Basic Concept Is Incongruent With Self
A clever concept is nothing more than an idea, and if it’s practical, it may have many applications. Of course, Mr. Concept doesn’t care about any of that, but go talk to Miss Application and you’ll get an entirely different story.
