This Cracked article today about “badass” criminals getting caught really creeps me out.

I mean, shit, they open with fucking BTK and just keep going with incredibly heinous criminals.  You don’t fucking celebrate serial killers and bombers by calling them badasses.

Shit, the article itself points this out in a caption, like that makes it okay:

Our software sometimes replaces “raving psychopath” with “badass.” It’s a known issue.

Oh, how cute! You’re fully aware of how fucked up this article is and you still posted it.  Hardy fucking har.

Jesus…  There was that article a while back about how “badass” and “awesome” a bunch of snipers were, too, as they ended people’s lives.

It’s just an incredibly creepy tendency and I want it to stop.
