Ok, so how long has Unmerciful Crushing Force been waiting to submit this? Weeks? Years? Best submitter / submission synergy ever?

I remember watching this on TV. I was quite excited about the bright new world that would result.

I was young.

Unmerciful Crushing Force is one of the most icky ways I can think of to die - like that girl in one of the last few scenes of Thirteen Ghosts. Or the intro to that awful movie The Collector.

I've seen libertarians try to claim this man as one of their own, despite knowing nothing more about him then the rest of the world.

He was just trying to get his groceries to his home on the other side of that tank. How is that courageous?

In the true spirit of the anniversary, make sure to click on the tank man tag to follow the link to the other vid of exploded heads and students ground to hamburger under tank treads.

In the main event of the most recent WWE pay-per view, when the action spilled into the fans, the one closest to the camera turned away from what was happening, raised their phone up in the air, made a stupid face, and attempted to get a picture of themselves with something more interesting going on behind them. It got me to thinking about how totally banal and narcissistic we've made technology. It got me thinking about how Tiananmen Square guy, if it all happened over again today, would also want to get a picture of himself standing in front of a row of tanks.

That's what submitting this video reminds me of.
