Famous Dicks.

Okay, let's make up from yesterday. Clearly, the bailout is a touchy subject. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be a dick. But I'm not that much of a dick or I'd be in here: Dickipedia, the Wiki of Dicks.

Of course, you will find both famous and infamous dicks like Dick Cheney (and we all know he is not a dick because he is named Richard), Lance Armstrong, Kim Jong-il and Ralph Nader. But first, our favorite, most beauty-pageanty, Russia-spotting, wildlife-and-librarian-threatening dick of all...

At the time of its discovery, oil was an innocuous, helpful and celebrated substance. However, it has since become the biggest jerk among naturally forming chemical compounds.

Though many other dicks have started wars, caused pollution, destroyed economies, and formed the base for several lubricants, oil is by far the most prominent offender.

Just like human dicks, oil spent much of its early life not being a dick. It was simply content being a layer of sediment that was agreeable and pleasant to spend time with. All of that changed 100 million years later..." More on dickish oil, here.
