A collapse in my online dating popularity

What goes up must come down. After 14 years of online dating, I'm now qualified to be a tour guide in hell.

The Idiot Presidents of My Lifetime

I'll start with Reagan, who took office a few years after I was born. I wonder how many people my age know he co-starred with a chimp in a movie called Bedtime For Bonzo.

"Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall...after I get done making a movie with a monkey!"

Since the advent of TV, Americans have consistently voted for the man I'll call the Homer Simpson Candidate for lack of a better term. In the US, stupid people have been more popular since about 1960. 

Granted, Homer's antics are fun to watch, but would anyone actually want to be his neighbor or coworker? Most likely not, yet Americans by the tens of millions want men like Homer to be the commander in chief.

Why does Bill Clinton wear boxers? To keep his ankles warm.

He also did NOT have sex with that woman...but turns out he did.

Good grief, how stupid do you have to be to get caught cheating? And his is idiot wife stuck with him anyway! Hence her unpopularity in less permissive cultures:

Below is a picture of George W Bush dressed as a cheerleader at a private high school. He is 4th from the left. Perhaps if he had spent some time studying there and elsewhere, he would not have been forced to order the shootdown of Flight 93 or authorized the invasion of the wrong country, Iraq.

It's a shame he went into politics instead of simply living for pleasure as most spoiled, dumb rich kids do. Hundreds of thousands of people would still be alive. 

Yeah, I bet you do you fucking war criminal.

On to The Big Zero, Captain Noodle Arms. Behold his grimace and he struggles to lift monstrous 1-pound dumbbells.

The female anchor's reaction is priceless:

She goes on to say "I think I use heavier weights". Yes, my dear, our president is a pathetic weakling. But don't worry, he's very, very smart, as seen below:

2 years later, Russia annexed Crimea. Speaking of which...

Romanian Captions Glitch on Boondocks Clip

The audio is clearly English, yet YouTube detected Romanian for some reason.

I suspect more electronic tomfoolery from my former employer:

Paul Harrell did not kill anyone in 1967 because he was born in 1966 - removed by Facebook

Just more proof that macho men always tell tall tales. Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur.

Odd YouTube auto-generated captions glitch

Its language recognition and translation software are excellent, so I'm wondering how it could confuse English with Czech. Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyQ0hzq4hYE

See what auto-generated captions you get. 

Brahmagupta's formula, Heron's formula, and the circumscription of polygons

I noticed recently that the formulas of Heron and Brahmagupta have the same structure, and thus I conjecture that any polygon with sides (a, b, c, d, etc.) and a semi-perimeter (s) that can be circumscribed will have an area (A) given by the following equations:

s = (a + b + c + d ....)/2

A = sqrt[(s - a)(s -b)(s - c)(s - d)....]

Heron's formula (for the area of any triangle)

s = (a + b + c)/2

A = sqrt[(s - a)(s -b)(s - c)]

Brahmagupta's formula (for any cyclic quadrilateral)

s = (a + b + c + d )/2

A = sqrt[(s - a)(s -b)(s - c)(s - d)]
