The accidental ruining of the Obama administration, or where we’ve been all winter

Posted in Politics, tagged on January 31, 2010 | 1 Comment »

So as fall ended and winter got into full swing, Seasonal Affective Disorder (or SAD) set in.  I lost all interest in writing, or even Bocce, which had become my new favorite hobby.  At the next blog meeting I told Katie I needed “some time to recharge” which she enthusiastically gave me since she had [...]

Sarah Palin whining about sexism again; probably right this time

Posted in Politics, tagged , on November 18, 2009 | 2 Comments »

It really takes some fucked up shit for me to side with anything dealing with Sarah Palin. She pretty much represents everything that I think is evil in this world. Every word that comes out of her mouth is pretty much the stupidest thing you could hear. She’s an idiot and will probably one day [...]

Change We Can Believe In- Homeland Security downgrades color-coded alert system (maybe)

Posted in Politics, tagged , , on September 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

On November 2, 2008 I was shitting bricks of sheer happiness. A young, hip black man was elected as President of America, and more importantly my vote put me on the winning team. Throughout my primary school years I don’t think I was ever on a team that won. This wasn’t even little league shit. [...]

Posted in Current Events, Politics, tagged , , on September 22, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

AFCM (Americans for Free Choice in Medicine) is a Randian outfit full of nerds like this pretty cool reformed one:

AFCM purports to have identified “39 Fallacies About Health Care, which I’ll be debunking until the healthcare frickus is over. Note that the “fallacies” in bold are disagreed with by AFCM:

Since When Is It a Crime to Rub a Woman Who’s Warned You Not to Rub Her?

From Kelly’s Court: “On the docket today, pink slip…for repeating a Seinfeld joke”:
http://www.yahoo.com/s/1124577
“…very much like President Bush did to the German Chancellor.”

Shouldn’t that settle the issue? Why is there now money in the “pocket book” of the victim? This isn’t the first time someone with a thick Mid-Atlantic accent has had to remind us how broadly to interpret an [...]

Palin!!!

Posted in Politics, TV, tagged , , , on July 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

In case that title is a little ambiguous it is meant to be read in the style of Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan.  Just imagine Kirk yelling it… “Palin!!!”  Neither this part nor the original title will make it through Katie’s harsh nerd-filter.
So in case anyone doesn’t know yet, Sarah Palin resigned her office [...]

As everyone knows by this point, whether they want to or not, Carrie Prejean aka Miss California is a magnet for controversy.  The media seems to have sprung on her statements against gay marriage, not necessarily to highlight the debate about gay marriage but as kind of an excuse to keep her in the news [...]

Consider possessing only your hands or your hands’ muscles. Consider possessing only a brain. Consider possessing only a heart. It is possible to own only a voice, consider that, maybe someone else’s or those of many. Consider possessing only what you have produced. Consider possessing only what actually produced, as opposed to what you have said you have produced. [...]

Dumpsters Overflow w/ Free Ayn Rand Books

Posted in Books, Politics, tagged , , , , , , , , on April 15, 2009 | 2 Comments »

The most common way to contract an Ayn Rand book is to ask a small favor (e.g. “Since you impregnated me, could you drive me to my abortion if I hit you up for gas?”) By doing so, you show that you don’t understand that the purpose of life is to…

Don’t Blame Me, I Voted for Stephen Douglas (An Evening With Chuck Todd)

Posted in Politics, tagged , , , on March 31, 2009 | 1 Comment »

The same 2 words were on every American’s mind as Tuesday’s presidential speech neared: “economic frickus”. Or at least those were the 2 words on the deranged mind of NBC’s Charlie Gibson as he ushered the rest of us in. But if Gibson was goofy, colleague Chuck Todd picked up the slack. A lot’s changed since I took my hiatus [...]
