Cool Shit 1/24

Sure, 2014 may have gotten off to a rocky start, but we still have these 61 things to look forward to.

I can't think of a better way to predict the outcome of the Superbowl than with the use of puppies.

The takeaway from this article talking to network chiefs? No one has a perfect batting average when it comes to predicting creative output. Everyone always has something they wished they hadn't passed on, and something they got incredibly lucky with.

It's refreshing and reassuring to hear that a movie like Dr. Strangelove, derided by military analysts at the time for being preposterous, did in fact mirror the truth at the time - that a war could be started by warmongers without approval or safeguards in place.

Some details are coming out about Tarantino's Hateful Eight. Of course, if you'd like, you could read it for yourself. Well, allegedly. I have no idea if that's a legit script or something some dude wrote after a 2 day cocaine binge.

It's nice to every now and then sit back and realize the beauty our world offers us. We don't do it enough.

Not sure why the idea of destroying the middle-class will destroy the economy further is exactly a revelation. Have we learned nothing from Catch-22? The snake eating itself? Sorry, that's art and literature stuff that people don't have time for anymore because it's stupid and stuff like that can't teach us anything. Almost like a vicious circle.
