Lunchtime Poll
While I love Miss Sophia, Lawd know I do, it might be time for a new avatar. However, I have two options that I just can’t decide between, so I wanted to open a Heathersesque Lunchtime Poll to determine the winner. (At some point, both of the following candidates are likely to appear as my avatar, along with an occasional cameo by our beloved Miss Sophia. I just need to know who comes...

I hate people.
Me too. But I also hate girls. Except for Dolly Parton. And Lucille Bluth. And Big Red from Bring It On.
Yeah. That’s it.

Gen. "Gays-Caused-Massacre" Sheehan Now Says Gays... →
notthatkindagay:
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins and Gen. John Sheehan — the retired four-star general of the U.S. Marine Corps who suggested back in March that gay soldiers were responsible for the Srebrenica massacre — have written a new POLITICO op-en in which they argue that repealing Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell is “a political charade to mask a foreordained conclusion.”

Warning: the language on here is pretty, umm, crude,but for those of you font-heads out there who have made good sport out of dissing comic sans, the typeface makes its hilarious retort:
Listen up. I know the sh— you’ve been saying behind my back. You think I’m stupid. You think I’m immature. You think I’m a malformed, pathetic excuse for a font. Well...

– BP Spokesman Andrew Gowers, in response to questions about whether BP failed to bring adequate equipment to the site and thus could not currently handle as much oil as it might be able to capture.

(via NYTimes.com)
Oh, I’m so sorry that British (and American) investors feel that these millions of gallons of oil hemorrhaging into the Gulf of Mexico are being blown out of proportion, or, as investment manager Iain Armstrong puts it, has become a “totally overpoliticized situation” about which ”there is a disconnect between reality and BP being totally lambasted.”

He’d Rather Not Talk About ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ →
The chairman of the House Armed Services Committee said Tuesday that he thought the military should keep its ban on openly gay service members in part because he did not want to open a national discussion about homosexuality. The chairman, Representative Ike Skelton, a conservative Missouri Democrat, said he thought the debate in Congress over the proposed repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell”...

In Iowa, Other Issues Crowd Out Gay Marriage →
(via NYTimes.com)
It’s been what, two years now, and Iowa still hasn’t been engulfed by hell’s flames? It confuses me that some people are still worried about marriage with every other doom story dominating our news cycles at the moment.
Furthermore, why is the first response to any change or evolution in the understanding or application of the law always first met with the...

We started out as enemies, but now we’re lovers.
I kind of want to remake that Paula Abdul song, that one with the video where she committed acts of cartoonophilia and beastiality with that cartoon cat who wears people clothes. The remake of the song will be about me and whiskey, and how it’s so strange that we’re lovers. I take two steps forward and whiskey takes two steps...
Thoughts about DC-area drivers:
kimbaland:
Do you know where the gas pedal is? USE IT!
How often do you need to get your brakes replaced? You’re braking for NOTHING!
It’s just rain.
If you are behind the wheel of a Prius, you are likely a really bad driver.
ditto, Chicagoans.
I’d also like to add the following:
On a 4-lane road, with two lanes in either direction, the left lane is for passing, not driving the...

Ever have one of those mornings
when your alarm wakes you up, but your slow brain doesn’t make the connection that the annoying noise you just want to stop is actually supposed to wake you up, so you turn it off and then wake up 45 minutes late for work and don’t have time to make a proper lunch, so now you’re sitting at your desk eating a frozen Bob Evan’s Homestyle Biscuit with Sausage breakfast...

He was angry with me when he woke up this morning because he dreamed that I was having sexy times with a tumblr we both follow. And I guess another tumblr was there, too, but no sexy times for her.
And then there was something about his brother that I didn’t quite catch.
I think he needs a break.

The woman who messes with my man messes with me
So the woman who made a fast turn through stopped traffic (and into Bruce’s bike path) showed up at the police station tonite with some stank attitude.
Bitch, it don’t matter who I am. I’m the man who drove the man you almost killed to the police station since his bike is jacked. that’s who I am.
Shiiiiiih… I ain’t tryin’ to deal with your bitch face...
