Mine came after we were talking about the wager in the politics thread.
It was an article from an economist who was responding to criticism over the New York Times blogger Nate Silver offering a bet with a pundit over the outcome of the election.
Basically it said this:

Overall, I am for betting because I am against bullshit. Bullshit is polluting our discourse and drowning the facts. A bet costs the bullshitter more than the non-bullshitter so the willingness to bet signals honest belief. A bet is a tax on bullshit; and it is a just tax, tribute paid by the bullshitters to those with genuine knowledge.
So I thought it was appropriate.
And, here's a picture.

Silversun Pickups? Yeah, idk, I wasn't a fan of their 2nd cd and kinda lost interest.
I've been in love with Emily Haines and Metric since like 2004.
