Boom or boom-boom? It’s the eternal question.
New Year’s Eve could prove to be something of a damp squib for some men in the Italian city of Naples.
Hundreds of Neapolitan women have pledged to go without sex unless their men promise to refrain from setting off dangerous illegal fireworks.
Local authorities are backing the women and have sent out text messages urging the men to “make love, not explosions”.
God bless America—where we can blow shit up and make sweet, sweet love afterward.

Mother of God, Mudede posted this 5 hours ago. What’s with you guys lately?
Embarrassing, Kiley. Embarrassing. Mudede broke this story 5 hours ago. Fucking Mudede. Normally there would be a timeliness/coherence tradeoff here, but Mudede’s post makes just as much sense as yours.
Celebrating. No time to read Slog—only drink between posts.
In keeping with the repetitive nature of this post,

wtf, why does this keep happening?
at the very least, you guys should update your system to scan previous posts (when you attempt to submit a new post) to check whether that link/url has appeared in the past.
or better, spend five minutes reading your own blog before posting to it.
Trying to steal Mudede’s lede eh?! How dare you
All the years of drugs have finally destroyed the few remaining brain cells. Ha ha ha ha! Seriously. This is foreshadowing what life will be like when there are no daily papers left: all the bloggers will keep obsessively linking to the one or two new stories that do get written on a given day, since there will be journalists left to write new stories for bloggers to link to. Ha ha ha ha.
make thst “. . . no journalists left . . .” Ha ha ha ha!
no time to read blog? it takes 15 seconds to scroll through the last day’s posts. drunk or not.
Complaints about the service at Slog crack me the fuck up. Happy new year.
