Hey, you stole my birthday!!!

Pretty much all you can do with vinyl is toss it. The Vinyl resurgence is proof that you can get twenty-something hipsters to gobble up any BS you want, as long as you can get a celeb or two to endorse it. That and “Beats” headphones, which are 80$ headphones re-packaged and sold for 300$. There's a sucker born every minute, and a media billionaire laughing all the way to the bank! (Vinyl, with a perfect audio system, can, in the right conditions, produce better sound than CDs; but few if any of the hipsters who shell out big bucks on vinyl have any of the equipment and environment necessary to hear any difference).

This and the rant about Newt? These may very well be Shep's last days at Fox.

It's ok. I hate Delta with a vengeance, and will gladly counter-boycott them. I really have no use for Kellogg's either.

Shake that Etch-a-Sketch Mittens, Shake it!!!!

I love cracked's lists, but this time they jumped the shark, and published the ramblings of pseudo-historians and outright frauds as fact.

I really don't give a fuck, and the fact that the question is even asked shows how low the music industry has gone.

OK, once and for all. There's no need for a show to determine whether this stuff is “fact” or “fake”. Wherever there is an extraordinary claim made, there needs to be extraordinary evidence to back it up. And no extraordinary evidence exists, at all, in any of the cases mentioned. So: It's all “fake”.

None of them predict anything of the sort. There is no “mayan” end of the world prediction, just a calendar period that ends, just like the 20th century ended on Dec 31, 1999 with absoutely no global cataclysm. The so-called “Hopi Prophecies” have no date attached. It's just plain old conspiracy theorizing, and it's boring as all hell

Mayans' contributions to “astrology” are not cited in any respectable text. Maybe their contributions to ASTRONOMY, but astrology? Not really. And the fact that they were good at building calendars doesn't mean that they, because of this, could predict the future. Otherwise, Y2K would have been the end of the world, since we are now far, far better at calendar making than the Mayans ever were.
