Not exactly humor per se, but if anyone remembers that asshole Big Pharma CEO Martin Shkreli; he's the guy that raised the price on that HIV drug by 5000%. Well, he just got arrested by the Feds:
Martin Shkreli arrested by FBI on securities fraud and conspiracy charges
Incidentally, the name 'Shkreli'. Sounds like one of the Skeksis from The Dark Crystal:
And the resemblance is astonishing.

Re: Think of the savings in aluminum foil!
I don't think they are going to make their funding goal.
Their reasoning?
quote:
He talked about one night he could not fall asleep and thought it might be caused by wi-fi or cell phone signal.
Now, if their reasoning was to protect your thoughts from Obama via the NSA from chem trail thought-reading molecules they would have had 20,000 sponsors and met their goal x200 by now. Poor venture capital planning.

Chem trail mind-bending is so 1960s. Give our government some credit. They are now using quantum-entanglement wave-guide depolarizing neural subspace amplifiers that they salvaged and reverse engineered from the crashed UFO in Roswell.
Hang on. Some guys in black suits just appeared at my door.........

Not actually humor, but I don't have anywhere else to put it, and it's rather super, isn't it? (Click to enlarge.)
For creationists, turn it 90 degrees anti-clockwise. Now you know what the Flood looked like.

Whoever calls me ignorant shares my own opinion. Sorrowfully and tacitly I recognize my ignorance, when I consider how much I lack of what my mind in its craving for knowledge is sighing for... I console myself with the consideration that this belongs to our common nature. - Francesco Petrarca
"Nothing is easier than to persuade people who want to be persuaded and already believe." - another Petrarca gem.
Ignorance is a most formidable opponent rivaled only by arrogance; but when the two join forces, one is all but invincible.
