Apparently America's office workers don't like the "loud talkers" at work, according to a survey. They also apparently would like their employers and co-workers to limit "excessive distractions" while at work so as to not compromise their productivity. Really. Workers want to be productive? And not distracted? Really? Wow. I never knew that. [via Sploid]
Taking Ambien will make you sleep-eat. Or sleep-drive. Or sleep-walk. What it may or may not do, however, is let you get some good sleep. Thanks, Sanofi-Aventis. [via Consumerist]
If a deaf beauty queen gets run over by a train, does she make a sound? And not to sound, you know, un-remorseful or anything, but when you lose a sense, doesn't it increase your other senses? Like, shouldn't she have felt the train coming by feeling the vibrations, or something like that. And, um, hello, she wasn't blind. Did she not see the train? Was she deaf and mentally challenged? I say foul play or suicide, not accident, but that's just me. [via Statesman]
So no more Chocolate Salty Balls for South Park because Isaac Hayes can't stand the show's take on religion. So just so we can get this straight: making fun of Christianity, Mormons, and most other religions = OK; making fun of made-up religion of Scientology (which is Hayes chosen "religion") = bad. Sure, that makes sense. Gah. [via Google News]
Sandra Day O'Connor says the United States is headed towards a dictatorship and the mainstream media doesn't cover it. How's that for biased media, you fucking Republican bastards! [Slate via mediabistro]
And finally ... KITTY!!!

That's an urban legend among the deaf. Apparently she believed in it, and it didn't work.
