Where is the Random Thread of Randomness stuff that doesn't belong in other threads thread?

I know we try not to get political here but Story TV is doing President shit for the ramp up to Election Day and more than one show I watched tonight had clips of Dan Rather and I'm bewildered by why the caption lists him as "Journalist" instead of "Discredited shady piece of shit who tried to throw an election." Or why anyone would bother to interview Dan Rather like he had anything useful to say after 2004.
 
There is a thing in the town where I grew up, where they make ravioli with cheese and raisins as the filling. You cannot wrap your brain around it unless you've tried it, and then you go "duh, of course." But as far as I know, 1 place on the planet currently makes it. And I don't choose to live in Bumfuck, WI, so I don't have it. But somehow I once met a girl who likes to cook and wanted to have sex with me and offered to make me cheese & raisin ravioli if I'd fuck her (I know, right? I don't even believe any of this as I type it, yet I swear it happened). It was awesome. And so was the sex.*

*Yet somehow, even though I knew sex was virtually a sure thing on this date, I almost managed to not get any. I really wish I'd had a mentor as a teen. Or a Dad who actually understood sex.**

**My Dad married very late. And when I asked my Mom how they met she said "[X]*** was the town with the most eligible bachelors, so I went there and went to the bars." (or words to that effect.

***I came from a place where a little under 2,000 people was a huge and booming size for a town and the next town over was 10 miles away.
 
OH! One that popped into my head a few days back that I keep forgetting to post: When Natural Selection Fucks Up.

Channel surfing for something to watch during dinner the other day and settled on "Nature" on PBS. They were doing a bit on the Stag Beetle. Male stag beetles battle each other for mates so it is to their advantage to have giant mandibles if they want to reproduce. But their mandibles have evolved to be so large that they can't eat so once they're sexually mature the males can no longer eat and have to reproduce before they starve to death. That said, the ones that pass on their genes are the ones with the biggest mandibles. How fucked up is that?
