Cracked Round-Up: Sensitivity Training Edition

Did you guys know that it's rude to call the new intern a pussy for turning down a little hit of brown-brown before the interdepartmental paintball game? And did you also know that it's considered culturally insensitive to paint the British guy's teeth yellow when he passes out from the hydrocodone you mixed into his coffee?

We're learning all this and more, thanks to HR's new-found obsession with not getting sued every other day.


Has one of your enemies died recently? Are they likely to? Then you'll want to read Soren's tips for writing the right eulogy. Christina takes on the horrors of everyday racism and Adam Brown brought us more of the least impressive boasts in rap history. John Cheese dared to ask: why have we surrendered our Internet to the spammers? Robert Brockway looked at how the insects are planning their elaborate slaughter of mankind and Chris Bucholz investigated a more hamburger-y prospect for the doom of man. Dan O'Brien closed us off with iconic moments from pop culture that never actually happened.

5 Amazing Performances from Actors Who Weren't Acting
No amount of craft and talent can replace honestly scaring the shit out of people.


Notable Comment: "I heard that Tom Cruise didn't even know he was in "Interview with a Vampire" until afterwards!"

That's true, kragary. They actually spent the six months before filming convincing Cruise he was a vampire. Leaving dead, bloodless strippers in his bed. Burning him with high intensity laser light whenever he went outside. Putting ipecac in every food or beverage he tried to eat besides raw human blood. Sure, it tore his psyche apart, but what a performance!
