...lyrics to EMINEM's Kill You reflect his mercifully unique sensibility. In the song from his Grammy-winning album The Marshall Mathers LP, released in 2000, the eager-to-offend rapper fantasizes about raping his mother and killing women not related to him. The melody to Kill You, however, is being claimed by someone else. French jazz pianist and composer Jacques Loussier, whose works seem to draw more from Bach and Vivaldi than from John Wayne Gacy, has filed a copyright-infringement suit alleging that Kill You lifts portions of Loussier's 20-year-old song Pulsion.

In Jokes and Their Relations to the Unconscious, Freud points out that jokes tend to reflect inner desires, fears, wishes, and the like. What desires, fears and wishes does this joke seem to indicate exist in the collective unconscious of Yale—or at least the staff of the Yale Daily News...
...strolls through the restaurant during the '60s, then the '70s, and leaves, meal in hand, in today's world. (In real life, we hope, it doesn't take 50 years to be served a burger.) The style of Shaq's clothing and the scenery around him change to reflect each decade. Even Shaq's swagger progresses from a James Dean strut to a hip-hop bounce...
