Although it shouldn’t take too much persuasion to conclude that Ann Coulter is one of the most small-minded, obstinate, ignorant and hateful voices in today’s public arena, I feel I must do my part to disseminate her ignorance as widely as possible. 

Anyone who knows me probably knows that I’m not necessarily a big soccer fan, but after reading Coulter's recent column I think I may become one.

Here’s an excerpt:

I’ve held off on writing about soccer for a decade – or about the length of the average soccer game – so as not to offend anyone. But enough is enough. Any growing interest in soccer can only be a sign of the nation’s moral decay.

[…] If more “Americans” are watching soccer today, it’s only because of the demographic switch effected by Teddy Kennedy’s 1965 immigration law. I promise you: No American whose great-grandfather was born here is watching soccer. One can only hope that, in addition to learning English, these new Americans will drop their soccer fetish with time. 

STEP 1: Disable the rematerialization subroutine

STEP 2: Connect the phase inducers to the emitter array

STEP 3: Bypass the override

STEP 4: Lock the buffer into a continuous diagnostic cycle

STEP 5: Dematerialize yourself

STEP 6: Pray someone comes along in the next 75 years or so, before suffering more than 0.003% cellular pattern degradation

I love this little old lady and her low-budget, late-night commercials.

WWJD?

Even socialists need to be reminded about personal hygiene.

Suppose there is a town with just one barber, who is male. In this town, every man keeps himself clean-shaven, and he does so by doing exactly one of two things:

1. Shaving himself, or
2. going to the barber.

Another way to state this is:

The barber is a man in town who shaves those and only those men in town who do not shave themselves.

All this seems perfectly logical, until we pose the paradoxical question:

Who shaves the barber?
