Last night's Mythbusters tackled the age-old question: can one light a "strike anywhere" match with a bullet from from a gun? Okay, so maybe the question isn't so "age-old," but it sure makes for an interesting case.

Remember that male:female demographic map that statistically charted the surplus single females across the nation and made every single woman in New York want to hang herself? Turns out it was somewhat misleading, because it counted everyone between the ages of 20 and 64 and most of the women who read about it on some blog—and who then accordingly expanded the universe of Dudes With Whom They'd Potentially Go Home to include, like, actuaries or men with off-putting tribal tattoos—were probably younger than 40. An amateur statistician named Jonathan Soma with an apparent surplus of free time and something to prove coded the map to make it adjustable by age (and divided by local population), and the sudden sprouting of big blue single male dots makes the situation seem a lot rosier for women……until they reach their mid-forties at least! So there is, it turns out, probably a surplus of single young dudes, and an absolute paucity of single old dudes. Oh yeah, and none of this counts unmarrieds in relationships, which decidedly includes The Gays:

Three comedians write about things they hate. Targets include Ferris wheels, "White People who try to enlighten Black people about the Black experience," Diet Dr. Pepper, hipsters, and (excerpted below) Mythbusters. Not Hating Just Saying is the antidote to "Stuff White People Like" spinoffs, and it's my favorite blog today.
