An old video has resurfaced showing Jimmy Kimmel, the not-so-funny late night host who’s somehow risen to prominence as “America’s Conscience” (at least, according to CNN),  inviting women to grab his crotch and “put their mouth on it,” once again reminding us lowly mortals that our great Moral Arbiters in Hollywood are nothing more than pervs in sheeps’ clothing.

A really weird new propaganda video from ISIS shows members of the terrorist group lined up in a row getting kicked in the nuts. No, seriously. This is a real thing. The video (and subsequent hilarious still-frames from it) appear to show ISIS fighters attempting to prove they can endure lots of pain.

The Daily Mail reports: On Monday Night Football, ESPN reporter Chris Mortensen referenced the rule as it is currently written in the NFL's game operations manual.

In the midst of campus P.C. culture run amok, at least one school administration is getting it right. Well, kind of. University of Wisconsin-Madison Chancellor Rebecca Blank shot down a proposal by the student government this week demanding a plaque be placed next to a campus statue of Abraham Lincoln, which would have called out the 16th president for his alleged part in the slaughter of Native…
