Rantings of a Bastard

I'm sure glad these Tea Party types aren't crazy or anything...


Seriously, I have a beard. Am I a secret Muslim too? (That would indeed be strange, considering that I am an atheist.)

Don't get me wrong, I don't like Grover Norquist. But this shit is going too far. "HE LOOKS DIFFERENT! GET HIM!" Yeah, that's never gotten out of hand in all of history.

Say it with me "The Tea Party needs to shut the entire fuck up."

In the apartment lobby, on the bulletin board, on a flier entitled "TEXTBOOKS FOR SALE", one of the books was listed as:

"Thr scott forseman handbook for woriting."


.... I really think that the seller needs to hang on to that one.

Man arrested for refusing to leave jail.

I... wait....

Man forced to moonwalk at gunpoint.

I can only assume the gunman's inspiration was this (advance to 1:12):

Is someone putting extra stupid juice in the water?

Kidnapper sues former hostages for breach of contract.

The contract that they broke? Not to turn him in to the police.

Authorities have re-opened a probe into Natalie Wood's death.

Apparently, all existing crime has been solved in L.A.

PETA seeks to have the 13th Amendment ban on slavery apply to killer whales at marine parks.

Next thing you'll know, PETA will be saying dogs can get driver's licenses, and you all know how poorly a Pomeranian drives.

In a plot that sounds like it would be rejected by Hollywood for being too silly.... An Iran-tied terror plot to kill the Saudi Arabian ambassador to the U.S. has been foiled.

Oh, and for added, WTF points, the alleged ringleader apparently wanted to get Mexico's Zetas cartel to help him out with this. So, I don't know... either it's real AND the dumbest idea ever, or it's a false flag operation to get the U.S. and/or Saudi Arabia to stir up more of Iran's shit, or it's a false flag operation to get the U.S. more involved in the Mexican drug war, or it's someone's really bad tequila bender of an idea to accomplish something else.

PETA to launch a porn site in the name of animal rights.

.... I got nothing

I don't know if I want to live in an America where a naked man with a fudgesicle can't wake up Nicolas Cage.

I don't know if I want to live in an America where a man can't butcher a cow in his own driveway.

A New Zealand 'teaching aid' skeleton turns out to be real.

Just... wow. I mean... okay, odds are they're never going to be able to figure out whose skeleton this was, but could you imagine explaining to the relatives of the deceased? "We're really sorry, but it seems we've been using your great-great-great-grandfather's skeleton to teach students for over 100 years now. Our bad."

Pastafarian wins the right to wear his religious headwear... a colander... for his driver's license photo and other picture ID.

Honestly, it's kind of hard to tell that's what it is on the driver's license. Looks kinda like a yarmulke, actually.

Anubis, Lord of the Dead... as a plush toy.

Also... Sobek

Oh, it's not that bad.

So, I have this theory.... otherkin were created so the furries have someone to look down on.

Edit: And I just saw someone with a Na'vi toon in City of Heroes. *facepalm* (But it was named 'Dances with Smurfs' so it's almost okay.)

I'm torn between saying it would never happen, it would be a slam-dunk victory for whoever the Democrats ran, and running out into the street, screaming and ripping at my eyes.

Jesus, Bill and Opus from the Meadow Party would be a better choice.

Sarah Palin's memoir, "Going Rogue" is 432 pages?

Seriously?

John McCain's "Faith of My Fathers" was only 368 pages and he actually, you know, did shit. Hell, the entire book wasn't even about McCain...

So... show of hands... who thinks this is padded to fuck and gone with all kinds of crapola?

No, I won't be buying it. The only "Going Rogue" I'm getting is the CoH expansion.

Edit: The subtitle of the book is "An American Life"... the same subtitle as Reagan's biography. HA HA HA... I C WUT U DID THAR

Noooo.... Horseback riding drunk. On a stolen horse, no less.
