Apparently when electricity first started being available everywhere, there were a lot of people who didn't know how to not do bad things to get electrocuted.

I'm cracking up at the expressions they gave the people. Especially the train wire piss guy and the baby chewing on the live wire.

so the proceeds from the shirt go to AIDS charities now, which is awesome:

But I also feel like there is some metaphor there, like being so smug about raising the price of a drug astronomically and becoming the most hated man in America and having rivals introduce similar drugs for $1 is somewhat akin to pissing on a live wire.

And now he's been summoned to a Senate committe investigation:

Because nothing screams "make something illegal" to legislators like doing something abhorrent and then bragging about how it isn't illegal.

According to sources, Gliniewicz, who was married, had an affair with a woman. He later arranged to have that woman marry his son, D.J. Gliniewicz, who is in the army, in order to boost the military benefits for D.J., since being married could add up to thousands more per year.

WGN Investigates learned that marriage did not last long between D.J. and a woman named Kathryn Grams. The marriage was dissolved just after Christmas, 2014.

That dirty cop I posted about earlier? The hits just keep on coming:

quote:

The shocking revelations late Thursday come after authorities acknowledged earlier in the day that Gliniewicz plotted “to put a hit” on village administrator Anne Marrin because he feared she would find out what he was doing, Lake County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Christopher Covelli said.

Detectives also found packets of cocaine in Gliniewicz’s desk after he offed himself on Sept. 1 and they suspect he may have been plotting to plant the drugs on Marrin.

A bit long, but cathartic as gently caress for me (names changed to characters from The Office):

I had a long-standing crush on my coworker, Pam. She knew about it, but our efforts to hang out always happened when the other person was seeing someone else. This summer I swore off dating for personal life reasons. She also knew that.

I was talking to another coworker, Roy, in the locker room downstairs and the subject of Pam came up. We had nothing but nice things to say about her. I thought Roy was still seeing his ex, and let it slip that I liked Pam. Roy responded by showing me the scratches on his back and made me guess which of our coworkers put them there. After a few guesses he told me Pam had put them there the night before. It was a lovely way to break the news, but I brushed it off thinking he was insecure.

Roy said that they'd been dating a few weeks and that he really liked her, and swore that he would treat her better than all the assholes she'd dating recently. I liked Pam, but Roy seemed like a decent guy at the time so I gave him my blessing and backed off. If Pam was happy then I didn't think I had much reason to complain.

Roy talked poo poo about me to Pam behind my back because he was insecure about the two of us being friends. For weeks she refused to talk to me and seemed genuinely angry at me. Trying to talk over the situation just made it worse, and Roy was more popular at work, so I kept my side of the story to myself, along with Roy and Pam's private details. Things were awkward and terrible. It sucked but I tried to move on with my life.

Today I found out that Roy had been screwing our boss, Jan, and hitting on pretty much every woman in the restaurant, including Jan's younger sister. I'm friends with Jan's younger sister, who is also Pam's friend and had also been holding in her dislike of Roy. Roy quit the company when everyone found out what a lying, cheating piece of poo poo he is, and I was finally able to get my side of the story out, although only to Jan's younger sister. Jan's sister was also relieved she could tell her side of things to someone.

After months of patience and work, Pam and I are friends again. We may never date, and she may even still be trying to work things out with Roy (who may also still be screwing Jan), but my shadenfreude comes from knowing that Roy is exactly as big a douchebag as I thought he was, and now everyone else knows it, too.

(I'm not Jim in this situation; I'm probably closer to an Andy or a Kevin.)

It really is just the best thing. And it's taking all the attention away from the 9 year old kid that got lured into an alley and shot because his dad was in a gang. Its a win/win for Chicago police.

What's also hilarious about the Fox Lake telenovela drama is that when it was possible he was murdered he was from the Chicago area and now they're saying an "Illinois officer" or specifying that Fox Lake is "close to the Wisconsin border, God forbid anyone make the connection to the Chicago Police Department.

Have they revealed how he managed to shoot himself and somehow not have the murder weapon near him? He didn't shoot himself with his own service weapon did he? Or did he manage to ditch the gun while he was bleeding out?

Too bad the proceeds from the shirt aren't going to Toxoplasmosis charities, which the medication he owns is for, but the news agencies kept saying was for AIDS patients.
