Easily one of my favourite shows. Penn & Teller essentially attack everything and anything, pointing out why it's bullshit.
They're completely open about their bias, and they've said their last episode will be calling their own show Bullshit.
Some of the stuff they attack is hilarious. They've been accused of not actually arguing with people, just demonstrating their stupidity by letting them talk...
..how does that not disprove what they're saying? Some of these people are fucking ridiculous!

Top 5 Most Badass TV Characters
5. Spartacus (Andy Whitfield) - Spartacus: Blood and Sand
"I would kill them all."
4. Tommy Gavin (Denis Leary) - Rescue Me
"You want to know how big my balls are? My balls are bigger than two of your heads duct-taped together. I've been in the middle of shit that would make you piss your pants right now. Uptown, downtown, Harlem, Brooklyn. But there ain't no medals on my chest, assholes, 'cause I ain't no hero. I'm a fireman. We're not in the business of making heroes here. We're in the business of discovering cowards, 'cause that's what you are if you can't take the heat. You're a pussy, and there ain't no room for pussies in the FDNY."
3. John Winchester (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) - Supernatural
"I got there just in time to see the girl take the swan dive. She was the bad guy, right?"
2. Mal Reynolds (Nathan Fillian) - Firefly
"You don't know me, son, so let me put this to you plainly: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake. You'll be facing me. And you'll be armed."
1. Christopher Chance (Mark Valley) - Human Target
"I work with a cover, blend in to the background, let you appear vulnerable so the threat reveals itself and then eliminate the threat."

"Then how come you look like a scumbag?"
3. The Shawshank Redemption
"I find I'm so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it is the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend, and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope."

2. Se7en
"Well, in any major city, minding your own business is a science. First thing they teach women in rape prevention is never cry for help. Always yell "fire". Nobody answers to "help". You holler "fire", they come running."

Pepsi vs. Coke
The soft drink industry is possibly my favourite industry to observe, because of the extreme level of competition these two brands put each other through.
Coca-cola can't do anything with Pepsi attempting to 1up, and of course vice versa.
There are smaller companies always nipping at their heels, but it's unlikely any will ever gain a real foothold. Jones Soda, for example, will always have a niche market because of its incredibly unique flavours, and the use of cane sugar, but it's not a competitor.
It's an excellent symbol of competition in a free market; neither company ever tends to have a large advantage, they constantly push each other to create new products and attract more customers... it's beautiful.
And delicious.

Let's be Honest
Nobody will ever read this
I'm just doing this to rant, and to get my stock price up on empire avenue.
Blogs are retarded, and I have nothing to say.
Who the fuck am I? What the fuck do I know?
Oh wait. I'm Roark, and I know fucking everything.
Jackass.

The Cell Phone Telephone Industry
Biggest bunch of assholes on the planet.
Someone please invent something cooler and send these fucking pricks packing.
Their warranties cover nothing, the service they offer is so god damn below par it's ridiculous, and we just grin and bear it because we have nothing else to choose.
The whole mobile industry needs to be revolutionised, get these shitty old companies out of the running and bring in a product that isn't raping people up the ass every time they use it.
The obvious comparison here is the airline industry, as made fun of in the South Park episode where Mr. Garrison builds a vehicle that rapes you while you drive it, but it is still preferable to taking a plane.
Fuck you, cell phone telephones.

Hitting on Girls
It has to be a science. It's communications. It's sociology. A social science.
There must be a way to break it down.
I don't care how nerdy that sounds, people who refer to it as an art are just wrong.
Being charming is just logic. Everything is just logic.
I need to find the connection.. and then every girl will be mine.
I've been doing logic problems since I learned to speak.
