We tend to use the word Asinine a lot around here for two reasons: Fark uses it quite a bit, and a whole mess of asinine stuff happens in the world today, especially in the area of Government. Take the case of one Sean Toehill, who was fined for, of all things, shooting the "V" sign (demonstrated at right) at a speed camera. Nevermind the fact that he was doing 22 in a 40. They fined him £90 for making an 'inappropriate' gesture at an inanimate object and suspended him for one year! Say what? And how long before they start using this technology in the United States this way? Papers, please? Hello! (
