pharyngula | May 4, 2011Lawrence, Kansas is having a loud and aggressive godless event this weekend, ReasonFest, with a nice noisy poster and of course, a noisy video.
You should go and make some noise. Or at least make lots of noise in The Endless Thread. Or if this is all such short notice, there's also a Berkeley event coming up on the 29th, SkeptiCal. No silence, at any rate, not ever any more.

pharyngula | April 27, 2011Yeaah…I'm pretty sure this video isn't safe for work. Ladies and gay men, I give you Hunky Jesus.

pharyngula | April 22, 2011All my life I've been looking for good advice on how to be stylish and cool, and at last I've got it…from Weird Al Yankovic and Lady Gaga.

pharyngula | April 18, 2011I have just now arrived at home after a very long day of travel from Hawaii, so all I'm going to do is serve up some cheese and vegetate for a while. Enjoy the Octaman for a bit until I've recovered.

pharyngula | April 16, 2011OK, gang, you know I'm at a meeting, and when I'm not attending talks, I'm strolling all over Waikiki (did you know you simply cannot get a table for 9 on short notice on a Friday night?), and when I'm not hangin' with the devo homies, I'm on a totally scrambled sleep schedule…so what are you doing continuing to talk and fill up the endless thread? Am I superfluous or something?
Anyway, here. Look at turtles. I'm plunging back into the meeting.

pharyngula | April 13, 2011I know a lot of you skip the silly videos at the top of each edition of The Thread, but this one has a Rabid Lesbian Atheist of DOOM! How can you possibly skip it?

pharyngula | April 11, 2011I'm very tired and it's been an extremely long day, and you just had to go and fill up the endless thread. OK, here you go, you cruel taskmasters, fill this one up now. I'm going to bed.

pharyngula | April 7, 2011I must be very old. I remember a friend getting recordings of the Goons sent by mail, and we'd sit around listening to an old reel-to-reel tape machine and we'd laugh and laugh. I suspect that Eccles and Bluebottle will not resonate with the whippersnappers here, but I shall inflict them on you anyway.

pharyngula | March 24, 2011You know what I ought to do? I ought to start every iteration of the endless thread with Neil Patrick Harris singing. Because he is awesome.
I don't need to ask if everyone already has a copy of Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, do I?

All the cool kids in the endless thread were talking about the versatile uses of the phrase "in my pants", so I have to join in and ruin the whole party.

pharyngula | March 18, 2011Put your hands over your delicate, shell-like ears, thread denizens, this song is not safe for work.

pharyngula | March 16, 2011It's not such a drag to be the skeptic in the room when the room is full of skeptics. Keep on arguing.
