Ok,

My girlfriend's watching television again. She works her ass off, so I can't whine too much about what she does with her down time, but MY GAWD IS TELEVISION SHIT THESE DAYS. She's flipping back and forth between the usual offenders - rape and murder procedurals, laugh-track sitcoms, and painfully phony "reality" shows.

So anyway, I think I've stumbled on the ultimate, be-all-end-all of modern television entertainment, something that combines the key ingredients of all three popular television genres. I'll call it "America's Funniest Snuff Films".

Whadya all think?

I think this is why I despise modern Television.

On the other hand, you mighta missed the thread, but I found a rather wonderful near-forgotten anime series which involves a Kropotkinist-Anarchist who winds up in charge of a military starship...

Pretty awesome stuff, I thought, it's well worth the trouble despite the somewhat outdated animation quality - I got the series, soundtrack and OVA collections sittin right here.

I suspect it'd seriously tickle your funnybone a bit, cause his actions make perfect sense to someone who really understands Anarchism.

PS - Gotta toss in Melzers AMV here so one can kinda get the flavor of it all.
