Ari stayed up all night drinking beer and playing old 7”s, so he’s gonna have to sit out this month’s critical mass...

Charlie Nothing "Was not born. Did not die. Does not, did not, will not exist."

Charlie Nothing invented the Dingulator.

In the mid-1970s he formed The Superfabulous Dingulators, a band consisting of Charlie Nothing (on dingulator), Patrick Bisconti (also on dingulator), John Kertisz (bamboo flute, because what goes better with a dingulator) and Jesse Ward Jr. (percussion)...

Tuning a dingulator is "variable, organic and evolving." According to Nothing, "the ideal would be to never tune them, to just find where they are going and go with it ...

In 2007 he released a new CD of dingulator songs entitled My Cuntree Tits of Me.

Charlie Nothing quit performing in the 1980s, believing he had evolved past the entertaining-monkey-jumping-up-and-down-on-the-stage stage. Charlie Nothing came back to performing in 2004, realizing he was in fact a monkey jumping up and down.

Ever heard of a Juggalo?

Insane Clown Posse and Psychopathic Records have stated that there is no true definition of a Juggalo. In a press release from Insane Clown Posse, they say "there are no requirements to being a Juggalo. We don't care if you spend a dime on merch, or if you know the words to every song. If this music touches you, and you get some positive experience from it, we would be honored to have you consider yourself a Juggalo.

Common characteristics include drinking the inexpensive soft drink Faygo and wearing face paint.

In a 2005 interview, Joseph Utsler explained, "you could be a Juggalo and not even listen to ICP. A Juggalo is a frame of mind and what not. And I was a Juggalo before we started with ICP. You don't even have to fuckin' necessarily listen to Psychopathic Records to be a Juggalo. Juggalos are Juggalos."

They also have a festival: The Gathering of the Juggalos is an annual event for the Juggalo Family put on by Psychopathic Records first staged in July 2000. Described by Bruce as a "Juggalo Woodstock", the Gathering of the Juggalos spans four days, and includes concerts, wrestling, games, contests, autograph sessions, and seminars with artists.

"It just doesn't matter!": The philosophy of Bill Murray

He’s done everything from dropping Dalai Lama riffs in the middle of Caddyshack to scaling a mountain to seek enlightenment in The Razor’s Edge, while even taking a few years off from acting to study philosophy at the Sorbonne.

It’s no accident, then, that so many of his films—beneath Murray’s veneer of world-weariness and sarcastic asides—recall the same existential questions that have been posed by sages since the dawn of the word “why.” Starting with the Buddhism of Groundhog's Day, here are some of Murray’s deepest thoughts, couched in some of his funniest movies...

Famous bigots get counter-protested!

Fred Phelps Band-of-Bigots from the Westboro Baptist Church (known to show up at soldiers funerals) showed up to protest outside Twitter's San Francisco offices...their hate-promoting signs were answered by multiple counter-signs of randomness, nonsensical yelling, and even a unicorn. A portable stereo blared Lady GaGa, while press and people passing by ignored the WBC signs and took pictures and videos of the more entertaining signs.

...a small crowd gave rise to an elegantly dadaist protest in which accordions, random signs of love and hate, and rick rolls abounded.
