You've got to ask yourself one question about BEING "FIRST" ON AN ATL POST: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Disabling comments on that piece-o-crap asia post was ridiculous. Get rid of those no-talent hacks.

I agree with PETA - animals shouldn't be used for military training. They're too delicious to waste that sweet, sweet meat.
