    Losers believe that having Asperger's Syndrome excuses all forms of social retardation, attention whoring and shitty self-absorbed bullshit, while also allowing them to lay claim to its supposed symptom of "higher than average levels of intelligence".

    For these reasons, Aspers has greatly outstripped ADHD as the chic diagnosis of choice for pretty much every group of fucktards on the internet. It is no wonder then that all people with Assburgers are fugly.

    Posting Dramatica articles is usually lame, but they're spot-on with that. Here's another famous Assperger's fuckup.

    In the case of the death penalty, if your crimes are heinous enough (treason, murder, kidnapping and rape should all qualify IMHO) then I don't see any problems with society putting you out of our collective misery.

    Gladiator fights. 100% voluntary for those sentenced to life or death. Tax the hell out of the seats and the pay-per-view revenue and we're set. It could be as simple as UFC without the ref, or we could have different classes with weapons. Winners would never be released into the public, but they'd get perks like cartons of smokes or a T.V. Big money-earning gladiators would have the possibility to downgrade their death sentences to life.

    Also - tax and regulate marijuana and prostitution.

    Looks like Microsoft already tried to silence him. Here's a partial transcript of the letter sent to him from Microsoft legal after a prior post:

    "This firm represents Microsoft blah blah blah you're violating our rights.

    Specifically, at this site you are providing information directing users how to misuse the Microsoft Bing Cashback program through unauthorized technical means. Further, on this website you admit that you have personally misused the Cashback program in this regard. Microsoft believes that your actions and the direction that you are providing to others regarding this method of misuse violates various laws relating to computer intrusion, unauthorized access and unauthorized use of information. For example...directing users how to misuse the Cashback program constitutes a knowing and unpermitted access of data in order to wrongfully obtain money and is also unpermitted assistance in providing a means of accessing a computer, system, or network in violation of California Penal Code S502(c)*. This conduct would also violate provisions of the federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, Fraud and Related Activity in Connection With Access Devices, and common law principles under state law.

    Microsoft views the misuse of its programs...cease and decist...blah blah...."

    Looks like they're taking cues from Best Buy.

    * CALIFORNIA PENAL CODE 502(c) "COMPREHENSIVE COMPUTER DATA ACCESS AND FRAUD ACT"

    Hmm, so Microsoft isn't trying to wrongfully control or obtain money? Last I checked, the class-action against Best-Buy was approved. Posting a blog post is tantamount to being an elite hacker who broke into a network and stole trade secrets or money?

    That's why you guys need to act quickly and outlaw Islam before it gets out of hand.

    Sure, you'll have an initial clusterfuck of riots and deportation, but there is only one thing that Islamic savages understand -- the fist. The Knights Templar^W^W American military will gladly help you with that.

    Once the Islamic question is dealt with, you won't have to worry about bombings and 9/11-type stuff (that is, there'll be no excuse for corrupt goverment operatives to fly planes into your own buildings). There will be mass-denouncements of Islam as millions of women throw off their chains and veils and run free throughout the streets in orgies of elation and self-expression. The female-male ratio will become 30:1 as the men will refuse to renounce Islam and will be subsequently deported.

    The macho Muslim men won't like that, of course, but they can go back to Algeria and Pakistan and be pissed off over there. It's not like those regions will ever become civilized. America grabbed two big bags of shit with Afghanistan and Iraq and now America is trying to neatly dispose of the bags of shit while staining itself with shit in the process.

    Giving anal sex is overrated.

    First of all, there's no sliding and friction unless you use lube. It's like trying to fuck a belly button. Lube is messy and nasty. Once things actually get going you may discover that your partner's ass isn't really as tight as you'd hoped and that makes you feel small or less special*. People fart during sex, and it's a lot easier to notice your parter farting when your face is directly in the path of the waft. People also shit and, trust me, you will know if your partner has shit that day no matter how well they wipe. The only straight men I know who enjoy giving anal are either into humiliating their partners or they're lying and have never actually tried it.

    * It is less acceptable for women to have loose assholes because it is assumed that the vagina receives more sex than the anus. Exceptions may be made for muslim women who wish to please their partners and still save their virginity for marriage. This is expecially common in western Europe Muslim communities.
