How to Survive a Ninja Attack

It is a dark and stormy night. As you and your date leave the latest Julia Roberts movie via the back exit, you are suddenly attacked by 12 Ninjas! What do you do?

Well, if you are the woman in this adventure, run away. Make sure you fall and break a heel, or twist your leg, or something theatrical. Lose your voice and be unable to call for help. Take a wrong turn, and end up captured, tied up, and tossed in the back of a van. Make sure to keep your purse and drop your cell phone. Plead frequently for your life, twist your wrists against the ropes that bind you, and generally make a nuisance of yourself. Don’t show any fear, because nothing is actually going to happen to you anyhow. You are not to be seen again until there is only 5 minutes left in the movie. Your part was easy.

Now, for the guy. You are all alone with a dozen Ninjas. Your date has ran off and tripped or whatever and been captured, etc. Put that out of your mind. Take a few deep breaths while they are circling around you brandishing their Ninja weapons.

  • First of all, stand with your back to a wall. From a fighting standpoint, this makes little sense, as you are cutting off any hope of escape. But in order for the Ninjas to do those kick-ass wall walks, they have to be near a wall.

How do you manage to keep your reign as the edgiest man on your friends network? Fortunately for you, we have a few tips to keep you tight and funny while you get to sleep all you want to, thereby maintaining your edge as the funniest person on the Internet.’

  • When inviting new people into your circle of assgrabbing soilhoggers.. .I mean friends.. make sure they are only online during your waking hours. No invites after midnight, because that is like getting the last girl standing at the bar.
  • Choose you battles wisely. You do not have to comment on the new baby, or the recent surgeries, or the childrens’ new FaceBook photos. Skip those, mostly because they are too easy and forgettable.
Megalomania in 140 Characters or Less

Twitter has revolutionized the nation’s speech patterns in such a manner that the true Megalomaniac finally has the time to take over the world. There is not much defense against this mostly because of Twitterapathy: however, being non-megs ( as we call ourselves) we have figured out a few defenses to stop the dictator of our 140 characters to back down and admit he is just a lonely guy living with his mother with too much free time and Mountain Dew. Lets explore a few ideas and techniques.

  • When some random person starts following you, delete them quickly. He is just trying to get you to follow him as well. Nip that in the bud. Unless she is hot. Then its ok. Unless it is a dude with a hot girls picture. Then it is not ok, but horribly, horribly wrong.
