Do you teach young adults? Are you thinking of getting a tattoo? Go for it. It turns out that tattooed teachers make for more engaged students.

Planning to go into the superhero biz? Here are some instructions for creating your own Batarangs.

The following video contains the word “fuck”. It is sung repeatedly, and displayed repeatedly on the screen. If you are in an environment (perhaps a workplace) at which this would be frowned upon, we suggest that you do not click on the link. We do not want you to get fired. Actually, we don’t care if you get fired, we just don’t want it to be our fault.

On second thought, it would kind of be awesome if people were fired for reading the Big Bad Blog. So pump up the volume, and watch the video. Unless you’re at home — in that case, wait until you get in to work.

It turns out that if you swear into Google’s new phone, it will bleep you out — in a manner of speaking. The voice recognition software changes cursing to hashmarks … fuck into ####, if you will.

Google’s reasoning is that their software is somewhat inaccurate, and they don’t want somebody to try to use voice recognition to ask where can I buy a fudge?, and get something different. I, however, think fudge lovers would also love hookers.

I found a new blog, called e-mails from crazy people. A good introduction to it is this e-mail, from somebody you never want to go on a date with.

Jim McCormick created a bomb (and elephant) detector that does not work, and was arrested. Not for fraudulently claiming it could detect bombs and selling them for $40,000 each, but because he sold them to Iraq. Background on exactly how useless they are can be found here.
