Cracked Round-Up: Democragasm Edition
Holy balls, what an election. Every candidate who made a stupid comment about rape lost their seat in congress, and the rich dude with perfect salt-and-pepper politican hair lost to the other rich dude with great hair. But all this jibber-jabber about Republicans and Democrats misses the most critical implications of Tuesday night's electoral money-shot: weed is now legal in two states, and Puerto Rico wants to become a state.
Only the future knows whether we'll follow through on that whole '51st state' thing, but Cracked is willing to make a bold prediction for Colorado and Washington. Either the new junk food revenues will kick-start a revitalization of the American economy, or the whole thing will prove to be one gigantic, elaborate ruse by the DEA.
Chris Bucholz started our week with an etiquette lesson, on the unspoken public transit rules we all break. Soren Bowie was next with an erotic novel starring the Cracked staffers while Jack O'Brien revealed the "dumb" celebrities who are actually crazy smart. Gladstone showed us how to travel abroad without looking like tourists and John Cheese explained how men ruin their own sex lives. Adam Brown polished our week off with celebrities who get more hate than they deserve.

Notable Comment: "The thing about those super cattle... sure it's healthy, but it's the fat that provides the texture and flavour to meat. Without it, a steak is just a bland slab of muscle fibres. I saw a TV show where a chef chowed down on a steak from one of those supercows... he described it as like chewing on his own tongue."
We get what you're saying, onca747, but no amount of logic could get us to turn down eating something called a 'supercow'.

True, Darth_Fat_Guy, but what's stopping them from going back in time and snatching that first T-1000 right before past-Skynet is able to send him back?
