Kitten-eating look. You’re doing it perfectly.
(Dick Cheney)

Oh NO. Save the kitties!!!!
–actually my cats would probably take one look at this guy and trip him on the stairs. Problem solved!
More like a baby punching look
He looks like he’d need the kitten minced before he could eat it.
Is kitten the meat in minced meat pie?
NPR had a ‘old fashioned treats’ segments before the holidays, where they did a taste-test and explanation of figgy pudding and the like. And FYI, the anchor liked real mince pie the best! I can’t find the link, sorry…
Still making fun of the old regime are we?
Well they were a bunch of crazies, idiots, freaks and hypocrites?
Not to mention a god damn fugly bunch of ppl… jeez
And ObaMao , Pelosi and Reid are not ?
I guess if you’re a genetically compromised conservative yourself you might not be so weirded out by how they look but to normal people they look strange.
Even the so-called ‘attractive’ ones look peculiar and odd. For example, Mitt Romney looks semi-normal from some angles (not face forward) but his kids look freakish.
The only comparably freaky looking democrat I can think of would be John Kerry and you can blame his Forbes family genes for that.
I’m not talking about a person being hot vs being ‘plain’. Republicans just have more visible genetic ‘oddities’, they’re quite plain to see to anyone with a training in medical genetics.
LULZ! Whatev! Generalizing, much? This dude looks like he was molded out of a turd shoved through the Fuzzy-Pumper Barbershop!
I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a gene with the name Fuzzy-Pumper Barbership
LOL! If you actually clicked the link…
I did p
Really, I’m just fooling around as per usual.
But! If they ever find the authoritarian personality gene I’m going to suggest the name Fuzzy-Pumper Barbershop.
lol!! That’d be the bomb! I am, too. Best. Argument. EVAH!!!
You just don’t get it.
What is it I am supposed to get, praytell?
…because really, your witty and obscure references are simply to esoteric for this poor plebeian n00b.
Someone got himself a thesaurus.
ISB- Are you the male, plebeian version of n10bette?
Nope. But do continue to interpose your witty reparte. It’s so refreshingly disconsonant.
Disconsonant? Pfft. There are plenty of consonants in that post!
@ Wino: what’s your dealieo? Why are you so insistent upon pigeonholing me to fit within your neat little utopian parameters? Are you OCD?
That was intended as a joke, since n10bette used teh name n00bette until New Years, but whatever. Next time I will include some sort of [JOKE] indicator in my repartee.
hah – get it… n00bette is a girl because her name includes ette. You said n00b without ette so you must be a male… Admittedly not very funny. But that is how I role. Look at my posts on previous pages. Full of corniness. Sorry if you interpret my comments as pigeonholing.
In general, my comments on PK should be interpreted as intended humor. I am pretty unfunny, but I do intend humor.
OCD isn’t really something to be taken lightly or to toss around casually.
I wasn’t kidding. He seemed to want me categorized, which eases the uncertainty, from my understanding.
It really has nothing to do with uncertainty. OCD is an anxiety disorder, and the overt compulsions that people have (washing hands, organizing things what have you) are done to ease the anxiety. When something (the compulsion) is not being dealt with/done, the person experiences extreme anxiety: heart palpitations, sweaty hands, a sense of panic. The only way to calm this is the repetitive act of completing the overt compulsion. The major attribute of OCD is that it interferes with your day-to-day functioning. People cannot hold down jobs, go to school, keep a relationship etc., without (drug and/or behavioural) therapy.
While it may seem a little anal retentive to see someone as persistently trying to categorise or “pigeon hole”, likely that is not a manifestation of the disorder. He lacks the response of panic, anger and frustration that is associated with depriving someone of their compulsion.
Please don’t think I am personally attacking you – I know someone with OCD – and the persistent incidences of people in this society to call people’s quirks “OCD” irritates me because it shows they lack understanding about the disorder itself. Which, again, is not a personal defect, I just try to educate where I can.
A sidenote – my cousin in law is on my FB as is his wife (which I guess is also my cousin in law LOL) and she posted one of those retarded FB quizzes that was “How OCD are you?” and in the “diagnosis” it said “You are super OCD lol!” It took a lot but I refrained from commenting about the insensitivity of saying “You have OCD – lol!” because it really is a crippling disorder for those afflicted.
Consider me educated. And appreciative.
Charro… have I told you how much I love you lately?
ISO – you are most welcome.
Janie – I love you too.
I am technically not OCD as my insistence on putting books in numerical order not only doesn’t interfere with my job, it is my job. Though I have issues with a series on the five senses as the dewey decimal classification doesn’t match the order the publishers put them in. I want to put them in order, but no matter what I do they are always out of order! I really really really want to get them re-cataloged as a series, then they all get one dewey number then I can put them in order whitout putting them out of order. *whines*
My CDs used to be alphabetically organised and within the alphabetical organisation was chronological.
Then, I spent a lot of time DJing in my room drunk and high and now they aren’t in order anymore. I very badly want them to be reorganised, but when I look at my collection (800+!), it makes me want to cry in frustration.
I put our CDs into alphabetical order just because I hate spending time looking for things (no sub-ordering, though), then my husband pulled out a lot to put on the Ipod, and now I can’t find anything. Plus I have some very strange music on my Ipod.
*skerk*
iPod.
Oh, phbttttttttt. Picking on the poor dyslexic. ‘Sides, it such an old iPod that it probably doesn’t deserve to be called one any more.
Put 800+ CDs in alphabetical order? Dude. That would totally make my day…er, couple days most likely. I like to sort things. I used to take a jar of change and put all the coins into order by date and type of coin. Then, when I was done, I’d put them away again. As charro explained, I don’t think I have OCD…but I am rather quirky.
You’re welcome to come over at any time and sort my CDs.
And bring Jack in the Box.
I have a friend who had a 500 disc CD binder and it was completely in alphabetical order. It made me so happy. Charro: If I were to go to your house I would actually start putting your CDs in order until you stopped me. I do it at my friends house with their books and it drives them nuts. I just want the series’ to be together! All the Harry Potter, all the wheel of time together…I really can’t stand an authors books being all over the place.
I have many less books than CDs, and in four separate places in the house. So, they are in order, in clumps, around the house.
You are also welcome to come organise. It can be a party!
Mabs: How could you NOT sub-classify them in chronological order of the album release? OMG, what’s WRONG with you?
)
(I’m only partly kidding.
You just haven’t lived until you find yourself rearranging book in the bookstore. When you’re there as a customer.
I actually like my books and cds on the shelf randomly. It’s a little trickier if you’re looking for something specific, but more fun for being browsy.
Have you taken a look at Henry Waxman?
Holy sh!t it’s the mayor of Whoville! O.o
More like Phantom of the Opera
Eugenics, huh? Charming.
Well, it could be Dianetics.
Frankly, and sadly, I’ll take that over “my political opponents are genetically inferior” any day. There’s really no non-frightening way to interpret that…
All of that plus.. Scientology has the stupidest premise ever. Reminiscent of Hale Bopp and Heaven’s Gate.. But more preposterous. I mean “Xenu, also Xemu (pronounced /ˈziːnuː/[1][2][3]) was, according to the founder of Scientology and science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, the dictator of the “Galactic Confederacy” who, 75 million years ago, brought billions[4][5] of his people to Earth in a DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes and killed them using hydrogen bombs. Official Scientology dogma holds that the essences of these many people remained, and that they form around people in modern times, causing them spiritual harm” … … Really!?
But if you take the classes (for big BIG $), you can get ‘cleared’ of those evil influences.
To be fair, buying your way into heaven (or wherever Scientologists want to go) is not exactly new. There’s a church in Shropshire built by one of my ancestors in the 12th century. He was, according to his tomb in the church, ‘sometimes indiscreet in his ways.’ *snort*
Oh, it’s not the buying your way into heaven. I remember the scene in “Prince of Thieves” where Friar Tuck gives uh.. Whoever that guy was.. “30 pieces of silver, to pay the devil, on your way to hell!”
Also, the old school rites of coins on the eyes, burying treasures with the pharaohs..
But.. I mean.. “the dictator of the “Galactic Confederacy” who, 75 million years ago, brought billions of his people to Earth in a DC-8-like spacecraft, ” … … Really?
Not only was he a science fiction writer, but he was a bad one too! Ugh, his ‘religion’ is just has bad as his books. Ever read Battlefield Earth? No? Good. Don’t.
I did read Battlefield Earth, and I read Dianetics too. I also read two of his earlier works, Slaves of Sleep and The Masters of Sleep (my dad had them and by the time I was 10 I gave up reading “kids” or “tween” books) and I seem to recall enjoying them.
I re-read Battlefield Earth before that trainwreck of a movie came out (saving grace? Barry Pepper. He’s hot), and I still enjoyed it. On a brain candy level. It was fun to read (IMHO).
Then, later in life (about 19 or so) I heard about “Scientology” and re-read Dianetics. I read it from a purely entertainment value standpoint – while not the best written book, I have to give him some credit. He was a pretty decent author (IMHO) before he decided that Dianetics was real. Or, more to the point, before he decided to convince others that Dianetics was real.
I guess because I grew up on Asimov, Bradbury, Crichton, that sort of “Old School” sci-fi appeals to me.
Charlie has tried for years to get me into sci-fi and I just can’t do it. I love fantasy and I just can’t stand science fiction. The only thing I’ve read that was classified sci-fi that I liked was Ender’s Game and the sequel Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card. There’s more to that series but I couldn’t finish Xenocide and gave up on it.
I find Hubbard’s writing just ‘meh.’ I also read all the ‘classic’ old authors when I was younger. Last year I re-read all the Foundation books (Asimov) because my son was reading them. Best part, imo, of having a kid, sharing really cool stuff with him. Also that you can play with toys as an adult, and no one thinks you’re weird. (“Right, yeah, I’m buying that for my kid. Sure.”)
At least not for that….
I like the old school sci-fi, I just absolutely couldn’t stand Battlefield Earth. I feel like it was needlessly long, should have been divided into two books(after they kick the psychlos off the planet would have been the ending point for book one). The main character just absolutely annoyed me. Everything he did was perfect, he could do nothing wrong. The way he wrote his villains really annoyed me too. Limper was basically picked on and tormented to kingdom come because of a birth defect and so he went off and was all evil and trying to self-righteously destroy Johnny. I something about that character was just so…meh. I don’t know how to describe it, but he just didn’t seem real as a villain. The banker/shark aliens were just weird.
I like Asimov better. Or Heinlein. His early works are absolutely awesome in a bad scifi way. Rocketship Gallaleo was great, they build a rocket in their backyard, go to the moon and fight nazis. How do you beat something like that?
Orson Scott Card and Frank Herbert (who can forget Dune?) are also on the list..
I’m kind of the opposite, I’m more sci-fi than fantasy. But I have a problem with my favourite series of all time (of all time!) Darkover, while generally classified as “sci-fi” it has a lot of what I consider “fantasy” elements. But, it’s still some good reading. I finally finished collecting the whole series! Took ten years, but I did it!
Well DU, I get what you’re saying. The character development did leave something to be desired, fo sho. I still enjoyed it. But, I tend to enjoy most books I read when I am reading them for pleasure, as well as movies and TV. I try to not get all intellectual. If it keeps me interested, I’ll like it. I’ve not enjoyed few books in my life and only have a few that I just could not get through no matter how hard I tried.
You’re right about Heinlein! AWESOME! Who could forget that!
I like both. I read the Darkover books a LONG time ago and have listened to a lot of them recently since the library got them on audio. For newer authors, well, Terry Pratchett is the king in our house.
BTW, Asimov’s autobiography I remember as being pretty interesting. I learned a lot about the early years of science fiction as a genre from it. I can’t swear to how well written it is since that was *cough cough* a few decades ago.
I remember reading Ender’s Game when I was back in high school, freshman year I think. No other book to this day has sent a chill up my spine like when Ender found out the true meaning of the training simulator game he and his friends had been playing. I just shuddered when I read it. No other book has ever done that for me.
For some reason, when I read “Sphere” (Michael Crichton – if anyone didn’t know), it scared the bejesus out of me.
I don’t know why. But the first time I read it, when I was done, I was terrified.
I love it when books do that to me.
My favorite part about Asimov’s life life story is how he came to America. At the age of two he was already a practiced smuggler of illegal immigrant children.
I read one of the Darkover trilogies (The fall of Neskaya, A flame in Hali, and one other) and just couldn’t get through the third book, it just seemed like no matter what happened things wouldn’t end up well
The books earlier in the series are much better. They don’t have all that weird mystic stuff that the author got into later. Just good adventure mixed with matrix powers.
Everything written after Sharra’s Exile (or Sword of Aldones which was rewritten to Sharra’s Exile) was in collaboration with two other authors, Debra J. Ross and Adrienne Martine-Barnes. So, Exile’s Song, The Shadow Matrix and Traitor’s Sun were all will Adrienne Martine-Barnes and The Clingfire Trilogy, The Alton Gift and Hastur Lord (just released!!!) were with Deborah J. Ross.
That rather explains the significant style change.
Oh, uh, I don’t actually know if Sharra’s Exile was the last book she wrote before collaborating, but when you put the series itself in “chronological order”, that’s how it works out.
Also, MZB is dead. Hence all the collaborating and “artistic license”.
Jane, give anything by Larry Niven or Jerry Pournelle a try (I highly recommend Lucifer’s Hammer or Ringworld!) Also give James P. Hogan a go. Those are the three that pretty much got me hooked on Sci-Fi.
Charro, yeah, you can certainly tell how MZB’s influence fades away. It seems as if her name is the only part of her in some of those later books, more like ghosting than collaborating.
Jane: I just thought of a couple of science fiction books that you might like. They have elements which seem like fantasy. (I love books that blend the two.) One is John Varley’s Titan series. It starts in space, with a crew who “crash” on a “world” . . . they find out it’s run by a capricious god. Check it out. Very, very neat. One of the races the god creates has unique ways of procreation, and, depending on the method used, name their offspring according to musical theory . . . after “chords”, and “trios”, “duos”, and “solos”, and “madrigals” and . . . well, just read it!
Also, Julian May’s Saga of Pliocene Exile. I think I mentioned this one before: it uses time-travel to get back to the Pliocene, but when the humans get to the Pliocene Earth, they find it’s inhabited by two races from another galaxy. Those two races have a feudal society, are advanced, yet rely on metapsychic powers most of all. But so do the humans . . . the aliens have torqs to amplify those powers, though (Celtic influence? Yeah, wait till you read it!) . . . very colorful and dramatic and funny and exciting–something for everyone.
Lois McMasters Bujold is great. She does both sci fi and fantasy. She’s one of my favorites.
Mabs, from what I understand, she was dying. She had a several of half written, half though manuscripts and did a lot of “dictating” (at least to Deborah J. Ross) in terms of where she saw the story go. I know she wanted to continue the Lew Alton/Regis Hastur – conflict with the Terrnas – line, and also she very much wanted to do some more on the Ages of Chaos, which leaves me thinking she did what she could, as fast as she could before she died thus leaving the other two to “piece it together”. So, I think you’re right “ghosting” may be more appropriate. I believe she actually died before “Shadow Matrix” was released.
Eds: Larry Niven & Jerry Pournelle? Two more off my dad’s shelf! A lot of these authors I actually don’t own, it never occurred to me when I had money that I might someday move away from my hometown, and thus my parent’s bookshelves. I would constantly go to my mom’s or dad’s to borrow books. One newer author I got from my dad – Kay Kenyon. The first one I read by her “Seeds of Time” was extremely well written and a page turner, though the ending was sadly predictable. Though, I enjoyed her writing so much I took a chance and got “Braided World” and “Maximum Ice”, which I did enjoy immensely.
Another of my favourite authors – Joan D. Vinge. I read her “Cat” series when I was a teen, and I loved them (I’ve read Catspaw at least a dozen times), and I moved on to her Snow Queen cycle. “Snow Queen” itself was amazing, “Summer Queen” and “Tangled Up In Blue” were also good, and I just got the second book in the cycle “World’s End”, which I haven’t read yet.
A few newer Sci-Fi/Cyberpunk authors I enjoy: Neal Stephenson, Bruce Sterling, William Gibson and Stephen Calder.
Gods I love books.
They’ll be back in November so “gird your loins” as Biden likes to say.
Girding your loins sounds like what I used to do when I was a kid by stuffing my underwear with more underwear before I got a spanking.
Brilliant!
I had to make sure I added “when I was a kid” in there… I don’t do that anymore when I’m going to get spanked now.
That would take the fun out of it.
That’s not entirely true. Sometimes he does so that I can “catch” his deception and add more spankings on. Hmmm, I’m feeling like taking a trip to the Bedroom of Doom right about now.
Well, when you put it that way.. It does sound fun.
Since Cheney is constantly in the news, this doesn’t qualify as “making fun of the old regime.” It is “making fun of someone who is currently in the news.”
Sorry this is so complicated for you!
Hey, everyone, here’s an angry old man! Let’s all look at him! Pay no attention to Guantanamo, or the show trials in New York…
Tell the motherf*cker to go home and enjoy his g*dd*mn retirement instead of sitting in front of the press seven days a week going PRESIDENT FAIL PRESIDENT FAIL PRESIDENT FAIL and maybe we can actually pay attention to what’s actually going on in the world.
I didn’t realize he was coming into your house and shooting your newspaper, your TV, and your PC in their respective faces.
Wow, you’re an idiot.
And you are qualified to make that appraisal, how?
I mean, other than “takes one to know one.”
It’s pretty complicated, so I’ll summarize for you — CNN doesn’t stand for “Cheney News Network”. It’s trivially easy to go around him and “pay attention” to the rest of the news.
Are you really having trouble with this?
I meant, how are you qualified to call someone else an idiot, besides the fact that you are one.
I am not surprised at all that you didn’t understand.
He did mine. It was a travesty.
I don’t know if you noticed the Clinton = horndog lol that was up last week or not but… yeah. It was there. There are certain truths that make up the fabric of PK. They are (in no particular order):
Bill is horny
Hillary is crazy
Bush r dumb
McCain is old
Cheney is evil
Putin is also evil but in a more awesome way
There are more than that but these are the most basic and elemental. I might also add that you seek therapy for this persecution complex you seem to have.
Lil Kim is crazy and for some reason narcissistic
The military is made up of noble angels who we must worship
Rahm is creepy
Pelosi is creepier
Reagan is a god (to some)
Zombie Reagan is cooler though
Luigi is a sorely underrated Super Mairo Bros. character
Blago is sleazy
The conservatives caught with their pants down are hypocrites.
I think that pretty much covers every LOL ever posted.
Firemen save kittens.
Firemen are gods.
Natural disasters are funny.
Obama is the Messiah/Hitler.
WBC are crazy motherfukcers.
And chicks bathing in sinks in the restaurant they work at inspire hateful comments from people who seem to suffer from some form of Body Dysmorphic Disorder.
And Palin is hot/stupid/crazy.
OMG how could I forget Palin? And along those lines, plenty of Bristol is a slut jokes.
I haven’t found a blanket ebilness imposed on Christianity.
But it is hard not to see pontifical garb as amusing…especially in a strong breeze!
Ooooooh, maybe not in the LOLs themselves, but I’m with n10bettes on this one. There has been a rather nasty long line of anti-christian sentiment on PK.
I agree, but it tends to be found in the comment section rather than the lols.
Yeah. That’s what I said. LOL
Oh yes, a number of “the Pope could end world hunger forever and we could all drive Audis if the Pope sold off all the Catholic Church’s stuff”-type LOLs.
I had to go back and find that one. A certain female troll (no, not the a-word) went on a rampage on that one. Sounds like PK was way more fun back then!
HHFN is an interesting gal. She disappeared for a while, then resurfaced in a milder, less frequently-posting form, then vanished again.
But intelligent…and her later posts were lacking in chiropterian guano. Hopefully she is continuing to do well?
Oh I remember HHNF, didn’t know that was the thread she went ballistic on.
She also went off on a few other, pointing to her myspace page and such. But the sink lol was the one that she hit lightspeed on.
She moved to ROLFRAZZI.
It does take a certain type of taste to stay here on PK for a while…. I’m surprised I’ve lasted as long as I have. Sometimes it just gets old.
Mostly why I resort to kidding around with people and talking about drugs.
Unless someone pushes a hot button.
What about the “hawt button”
*wink*
You know which one I mean.
Oh Max, you can push that button any time Janie says it’s ok and/or is around to enjoy.
Anyone want some ginger?
*raises hand* I do!
Yay! Janie’s here! Now it’s a real*.. Uh.. Something! Pass the ginger VG!
*note, it’s always real with VG, but when Max is involved we need Janie’s approval.
*passes ginger with a grin*
Oh, I remember that “lol” about the chick in the sink. (I use the quotes on purpose). I think that’s what brought me to this site. Thanks for the memories, Charro *gropes charro’s booty on the way by*
Where was teh Mario Bros. meme? I musta missed that one.
There wasn’t. I was kidding. And I misspelled Mario to boot.
“Zombie Reagan is cooler though”
It sure was when GWAR did it!! And also in Lewis Black standup. Wow, you sparked references to two things I’ve already talked about online today. The coincidence-ness of that scares me a little. Where else have we heard about Zombie Reagan? What a delightful concept.
Only if the kitties are Democrats.
My cat gets free room and board and free health care — sounds like a Democrat to me. (And I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he showed up on the Massachusetts voter roll for this week’s close race.)
There are no voters who think they will be getting “free” health care you ginormous idiot.
Oh yes there are !
Hmmm, how about backing that up with some citation?
Hmmm, how about backing that up with some citation?
We live in a country where people genuinely believe a lot of stupid things (e.g. “the moon landing was fake,” “the Psychic Hotline will give me really good advice and won’t cost too much,” “Hey, I got an email that says it’s from the IRS, I’d better open the attachment,” or “the key to health is paying somebody to hose out your lower intestine.”). Given this, I think it’s highly unlikely that there aren’t some people stupid enough to think they’re going to get “free” health care.
Actually, I’d bet the average Medicaid recipient thinks they’re already getting “free” medical care.
Of course not, troll. It’s not free – but the “rich” will foot the bill.
Do you have anything useful to say, my cotton friend, or are you just going to dial and yell?
Whether I am saying anything of value is up to the eye of the objective reader and certainly not a biased buffon like yourself. Clearly I’ve gotten under your skin so were I a troll, well, I certainly would have done my job now wouldn’t I? But no, alas, I am not a troll. But you are a pathetic talking-point-spouting moron. Which means you are in the vast majority on the Internet so congratulations on that.
My cat sleeps about 20 hours a day.
He has his food prepared for him.
He can eat whenever he wants, 24/7/52.
His meals are provided at no cost to him..
He visits the Dr. once a year for his checkup, and again during the year if any medical needs arise.
For this he pays nothing, and nothing is required of him.
He lives in a nice neighborhood in a house that is much larger than he needs, but he is not required to do any upkeep.
If he makes a mess, someone else cleans it up.
He has his choice of luxurious places to sleep.
He receives these accommodations absolutely free.
He is living like a king, and has absolutely no expenses whatsoever.
All of his costs are picked up by others who go out and earn a living every day.
I was just thinking about all this, and suddenly it hit me like a brick in the
head.
Holy dogfish, my cat is a Democrat!
Nope. Your cat is a slaveholder. You are a slave.
If your cat were a Democrat, he would be willing to pay a portion of his income as taxes, so as to ascertain that kittens and elderly cats would not suffer the result of having been abandoned by their owners.
His feline overlord’s brainwashing is fascinating to behold.
Lighten up, Francis.
If you thought I was serious about cat brainwashing I think you’re the one who needs to lighten up. And get professional help.
No, I assumed you meant political-ideology brainwashing. How else should I have taken it from the structure of your sentence?
Cat-to-human brainwashing. Anyone who lives with a cat know for a fact that they have mastered the skill!
Feline-free and glad of it!
Dogs have their own version–it involves puppy-dog-eye expressions. But I think the cats take it to another level–at least my smartest one does!
Comparing what dogs do with what cats do is like comparing bashing two rocks together with advanced neurosurgery. The dog at least acts as though he/she loves you and can’t stand to spend a moment away from you. The cat can’t even be bothered to acknowledge you exist unless there is food involved and you still spoil it rotten.
Not with all cats. I’ve had a couple who are almost dog-like with the overt affection. The others show affection, but less obviously. One cat used to sit at my feet with ‘please let me join you?’ eyes, until asked up on the sofa. Cats aren’t all that classifiable!
Hey, I love my pussies and they love me.
Both my kitties sleep in bed with me. Purring. LOUDLY. Right by my head.
One kitty just jumped up to say hello too!
My husband’s old kitty greeted him every day when he returned home from work. He loved everyone.
The new guy follows everyone around the house, but is still shy with strangers.
My kitty must be in the same room with me at all times. She doesn’t have to do anything to acknowledge me, she just has to be in the same room. She also likes to great me when I come home from work. Where I used to live she would sit in the window and wait for me to come home. She’s also lazy enough that if I stick my feet under her when she’s sleeping in the middle of my bed she won’t actually move, which means I have a great foot warmer.
Maggie will do that. I have to flop my feet to get her off them. She seems perfectly comfortable on my feet.. Which seems really uncomfortable to me.
I think cats seem to have an invert sense of comfortable to humans.
VG, have you seen the e-mail joke about the pets’ diaries? The dog’s consisted of eat, sleep, play, belly rubs, etc. The cat’s was “day 394 of my captivity, my captor continues to feed me dried formed chunks of something resembling food while continuing to dine themselves on fresh slaughtered meat….”
Well if you weren’t new here, and knew anything about the people you’re trying to troll, you’d know Jane thinks cats are evil. The connection is easy to see.
Since when is posting a joke trolling? Hmmm?
I didn’t say that. Clearly, if you’d have used those awesome literary skills you would realize Jane is not a “people” she is a “person” Therefore, when I said “people”, I meant everyone else you’ve trolled throughout this thread. You see, the rest of us can read, take context clues and figure out what’s being said.
You on the other hand… well, your response just now shows how much you’ve figured out. Keep going, you’ve still got some growing up to do
Anyone else notice that for a guy named “It’s So Obvious” he needs an awful lot of stuff explained to him?
Point to my trolling. If you can.
It’s so obvious, he doesn’t need to. My impression is of a young person, bouncing around, either intentionally or ignorantly stepping on a lot of toes.
Point to it as a teaching tool. And I’m not young.
I don’t feel like it. And if you are not chronologically young, then your communication style is typical of the 18 year old students in my classes. The 20 year olds are much more grounded.
More pigeonholing. How intriguing.
If you or anyone else refuse to point to it, how can I know what was “wrong” and correct the error of my ways?
End of my last post got cut off, here it continues:
4. You have yet to bring up anything constructive besides when you’re using your “formidable skills” to create an insult.
5. The only time you use words over a ninth grade reading level is when you’re trying to defend your douchebaggery.
6. There’s a lot more left, but frankly… It’s So Obvious!
As a teaching tool IMO I would consider the following trolling/purposefully offensive/ annoying.
-Holy dogfish, my cat is a Democrat!
-Lighten up, Francis.
-No, I assumed you meant political-ideology brainwashing. How else should I have taken it from the structure of your sentence?
-Lighten up before you drown in your own froth, Francis!
-‘Cuz it takes a real man to admit when he acted like a jerk. Martyr my a@@.
- Wrongo. ‘Twould be average. Have you ever seen a cat brain?
Average cat brain = 30 grams. Average testicle = 25-30,
1. It’s an internet meme I received via email with “dog” in place of cat. I find such blatant stereotypes amusing.
2. A man’s testicles ARE similar in size to a feline brain.
3. Which altercations?
4. Knowing the thoughts (or lack thereof) of thine enemy is always constructive. Besides, I’ve read lots of non-related, non-constructive drek here.
Why am I persecuted for what are really rather milk-toastesque comments? Are you all really that concerned about the opinions of others?
Seriously, you’re going to refer to comments I made AFTER I was called a dip$hit for providing scientific information?
Its not the info itself, but the means by which the info was delivered. Plus. you did just ask for how others might have felt you were trolling.
Didja happen to read the drivel at the bottom of the page? Now THAT’S trolling. Or else you guys are so insulated from the real world you’ve never actually experienced the debauchery that is the internets.
Agreed. I have been trying to work in some sort of Biff – Back to the Future Quote – all night. But Biff did not ask for us to outline why we thought Biff is trolling.
You know, you can stop being butt hurt already about us not liking you… It’s not your fault.. you’re just… not likeable.
But, it doesn’t exclude purposefully inflammatory comments elsewhere. If you can’t understand why others find your comments offensive, or at the least obnoxious, I give up and refer you back to Max’s posts.
Because that’s his intent. Mine was to enjoy a lol site by interjecting a funny response to someone else’s post. Shame, really, that people are so hypersensitive they can’t even recognize tongue-firmly-planted-in-cheek replies for what they are designed to be — humor. Why the need to defend onself against something so blatantly untrue? Guess I’ll never know…
Preferably… the one I just made above Wino here.
LOL!!! Are you serious? It’s cute how you think I care! If you’re this defensive over a JOKE, there must be an element of truthiness for YOU as a liberal. But NOT for me as one.
ttfn…
You did ask our opinion.
I would ask you what ttfn stood for, but I don’t wan’t to pigeonhole you again [joke]
And yes… I do think you care that much… seeing as how you’ve posted in reply to almost every comment in this post so far. I’ve looked back through and you’ve made nearly half the comments in this lol. That’s why I think you care. So if you don’t: Shut up and go away.
Guess what? I’m not doing anything wrong, so I don’t have to go anywhere. I didn’t insult, curse, threaten, make snide comments, NOTHING. That was you, and a few others. How you interpret what I post is on YOU.
The hammer? Are you kidding? I really DON’T care and have just as much right to post here as anyone else, as long as I follow the community rules. You can’t throw me out just because you don’t lilke me. Sorry ’bout that, Max-ol-pal.
Wino… ttfn = ta ta for now.
Ok, so for me I give up. It is 1:30 here and I have to go into the office for the last time tomorrow. So, ttfn.
It’s been an experience. G’night, mate!
One last comment, sorry. Interpretation is up to the reader, but the person who writes should have a pretty good idea how others interpret. Usually when people misunderstand what I write, I try to change my writing or make the meaning clearer by providing tags such as – [joke]. Failure to interpret something is rarely the reader’s fault.
g-night
Then don’t respond to me: your blood pressure will stabilize and you’ll live longer.
Well I would think that the fact that I used the word FELINE would be a huge indication that I was talking about cats. Or maybe you haven’t gotten to that part in your thesaurus yet.
“His feline overlord’s brainwashing” didn’t say “brainwashed BY the feline” to me. It still doesn’t. Sorry.
Say that again, but smack me with a ruler. *pants*
*rummages around for her longest ruler*
You’ve been a poor student Charro…
I sure have. I’ve been starin’ at your sandals too. That’s a paddlin’..
So since I pay taxes for a bunch of deadbeat welfare queens, that must mean I’m a slave of the government !!!! OMG !!!
Deadbeat welfare queens? You have been paying waaaay to much attention to teh stoopid, and apparently believing it as well.
DING! DING! DING!
On a side note, I can’t believe you just realized this..
They do let us continue to believe we are free though…
Wow, being a deadbeat welfare queen sounds awesome! Where do I sign up?!
You gotta be able to pump at least one squalling baby a year.
“pump out” – dam it!
*Holds squalling baby above head with left hand* *screams, “FREEDOM”*
I’m so going to hell for this, but I laughed my ass off.
As did I, Max…..I’ll save you a seat on the bus.
We get a bus to hell? Then why are all these JWs trying to save us from it?
Hey, I just thought of something. “Jehovah’s Witnesses” implies they saw something, right?
I think they’re bearing false witness by saying they saw something, when most of us are pretty sure they didn’t.
And do we have statistics on exactly how many deadbeat welfare queens do this? I want to know what my competition is like. I mean, it sounds so awesome that I’m surprised everyone isn’t doing it.
*hurriedly tries to pump out a baby to beat Rando for the position of “Queen”*
We’re not going fast enough! Hook up the hydraulic pump!
Rando.. You kinky bastard. Now I’m all tingly.
Lol! I didn’t know you could do that Rando! *Hands Rando the Welfare Queen crown* Sorry Charro…
For your consolation prize, charro, you can have the hydraulic pump.
Woohoo!
But I want pictures.
Done.
A new Olympic sport! “Speed Birthing”!
Correction — he’d be willing to pay a modest portion of his income, and a much larger portion of someone else’s income.
You make such AMAZINGLY AWESOME TALKING POINT ASSUMPTIONS!! You go boyee.
That’s because their brains are the size of a testicle.
Again like a Democrat…
(Also, speak for yourself.)
I was. He was replying to my post. Hello?
I meant about the testicular comparison. Sheesh, it’s a nut joke — lighten up!
Or are you suggesting that my brain is the size of a testicle? My brain may frequently BE my testicles, but it is quite a bit larger, I can assure you….
I meant that, while your nuts might be the size of cat brains — and that’s quite respectable — some of ours might be a bit larger, wink wink, nudge nudge…
ZOMG!! You should have that checked out, pronto!! =)
A cat testicle (about the size of a green pea) or a human one? Inquiring kitties want to know!!
Hooman. (^^^) lol!
Huh, we have more of a totalitarian household. The cats rule with absolute control. The wife and I exist to serve.
Isn’t that always the case with cats?!!
Lighten up before you drown in your own froth, Francis! ROFLMAOATPWDD™.
Are you actually quoting “Stripes”? Or, do you just refer to everyone as “Francis” for some reason?
Any of you guys call me Francis, and I’ll kill you.
Gotcha.
You just made the list, buddy!
And I don’t like nobody touching my stuff. So just keep your meat-hooks off. If I catch any of you guys in my stuff, I’ll kill you. Also, I don’t like nobody touching me. Now, any of you homos touch me, and I’ll kill you.
From what BT has let out (by mistake, of course) it might just be worth it!!
You’re welcome to try brak darling.
*shyly reaches out his artistic musician hand and hopes for the best….*
…oh…OH…mmmmmmmmmmmm
……Oh so worth whatever the price may be!!!
*readies the other hand to go for broke*
Just curious, what does the it in your name refer to? Perhaps, Francis?
Lighten up? What fun is that?
I find it interesting that Dhoti and Obvious here have indulged themselves in the fact that they can say horribly inflammatory statements, which are based in nothing but bovine excrement, Then when called out on it, cop out and say “It’s just a joke! Lighten up!”
I posted a joke. That’s running around the internet. Where did I say anything “inflammatory?” Hmm?
You’re about as inflammatory as an aggravated hemorrhoid, buddy. You’ve gotta be around here a lot longer to get away with your kind of “jokes.”
Oh, I get it! This place is a totalitarian dictatorship run by Rando, and one may not speak unless spoken to. Fair enough.
No it a democracy, and so far the only one you’ve initiated a circle jerk with.. is Dhoti… and seeing as how Dhoti is not a majority, you’re annoying most of us. Piss off.
Did you not see where Dhoti and I were arguing and he tole ME to lighten up? WTH is wrong with you?
Again. Point to it.
*told
Why are we wasting our time? ISO is clearly just trying to mess with our heads by trying to act self-righteous while knowingly being a tool.
Dude, if you’re actually trying to be a fun, active member of our little community here, you’ve got a lot to learn.
Self righteous? How?
I know, right? Maybe I can try that. I think all conservatives are heartless bastards who only care about money and think gassing the poor instead of helping them is the more practical solution. Oh, don’t get mad! It’s just a joke! Lighten up!!!
What makes you think I’m a conservative?
Well WTF are you then? And we have lines drawn here, pal. You’re either left or right. Red or blue. Liberal or conservative. We eat the moderates for lunch. It’s eat or be eaten.
There are plenty of exceptions. I haven’t seen anyone successfully eat Diss for lunch. Have you?!?
That depends on what you mean by… “eat for lunch”
*winks at Diss*
How you doin?
Personally I’ve eaten and been eaten by Max plenty of times. And Charro. And… well, you get the idea.
nomnomnom. I do love Janie for dessert.
*purrs*
I love when we play the survival of the fittest game.
Darwinism just got about elebenty times more sexy!
“To know your Enemy, you must become your Enemy.”
~ Sun Tzu
You know, it’s just politics.. not war..
Lighten up Francis!
lol. Now that’s more like it….
I thought that was from Face/Off.
“To know your Enema, you must become your enema”
Grandma
That sounds horribly unpleasant. LOL
b \c its so obvious [JOKE]
Gassing the poor? Good idea!!
I like the way you think..
I think they have enough gas already. Whew!
I was just thinking, I hope it’s nitrous, and I hope I get gassed. Hee.
Hands Charro a pink balloon.
Woohoo!! *inhales* *giggles for 30 seconds* Ahh.. It’s over.
I put my cats out on the street corners with a tin cup. The freeloaders…
When mine had too many babies to feed, we tied her tubes and said (in a Cartman voice) ” No Kitty !!! This is MY pot pie !”
You cat is a rich, ivy-league educated snob from MA? Wait, stereotypes not computing.
What’s with all the ridiculous accusations today D?
Wait, everyone from MA is a rich, Ivy League snob? Hey, that’s your stereotype, not mine.
Here’s what I was saying — it looks like the MA Senate race will be a close election. Democrats steal close elections. Therefore, I wouldn’t be surprised if my cat turned out to “vote” in the election.
No, no!!32 Froth !234 Froth 2134oi45098450! Republicans steal close elections !!!! remember BUSH v. Gore.
Ok, seriously. How many of the people you stereotyped as democrats even vote? What’s with all the accusations of people’s troll-ness? Why are you so angry today? If the Democrat wins, is it automatically going to be stolen in your eyes (before the results are even in)?
Accusations, plural? One accusation — I accused forge of being a troll. (Which he is.) Singular.
Do you always assume people you disagree with are angry? Does it make it easier to tune them out?
Here are the accusations I pulled from your posts on this page.
“wow, you are an idiot”
- — biff is incapable of understanding that CNN does not equal “Cheney News Network”
-all people on welfare are lazy and stupid thus being democrats
-democrats steal close elections
-democrats have brains the size of testicles.
Admittedly, this list is not as long as I expected from my initial glance at the page.
I tend to assume that people who immediately start throwing derogatory comments in with their responses are angry. Maybe it is not the best word.
Note: my calling people angry has nothing to do with political affiliation. There are plenty of angry liberal-libertarians out there. I just haven’t had the chance to ask them why they are angry on pk.
Notice that the quotes were in response to existing derogatory insults. And as for the cat/Democrat jokes — who among you can resist setups like those?
“I’m not TALKING to you, I’m talking to HIM” is how five year olds argue, dear.
In all fairness the last two aren’t accusations, just closer to the truth.. *snicker*
Wow, those must be some huge balls then.
We’ve got the biggest balls of them all!
Wrongo. ‘Twould be average. Have you ever seen a cat brain?
Average cat brain = 30 grams. Average testicle = 25-30,
I’m going to tell the admins that you are rude and insulting. Maybe you’ll get banned.
Well, then we would be talking about elephantine testicles, eh?
Baseless personal attacks — call in the Cheezburger Police!
*woop woop woop*
Based on your own standard D, Rando (a self-avowed Dem.) was accused of having a brain the size of cat testicles. He responded in kind.
btw – “It’s so obvious” == Dhoti? Neither seems to be online at the same time.
It’s referring to something else entirely.
Why are you wasting your keen deductive powers here, instead of using them to go hunt for Osama or something?
I’m a democrat – I don’t believe in violence. Just wasting the welfare state.
ZOMG CONSPIRACY THEORY FTW!!! U CAWT ME!!
Lay off the brain-brine, Wino.
Very interesting, Wino. Leaving OBL to rot in a federal prison — which is the Democratic party line for what to do with the guy, right? — isn’t an inherently violent act.
You sound like you’re starting to get agitated. Maybe you should go out and chill for a bit.
I’m also disappointed that no one has yet to accuse me of being in any type of Victpher situation. (Free high-fives to anyone who gets that reference.)
People in prison don’t typically rot. From what I understand of the standard Repub. criticism of the prison system is that it is too expensive; inmates are treated too well.
There was no harm in asking. ISO seems to have a similar style of argument. Neither of you posted within a few minutes of each other until now.
Osama will get foot baths and Kosher meals in prison. He’ll get a book deal and do interviews and eventually get out on some sort of technicality because someone didn’t read him his miranda rights… No rotting in prison for him.
Echo?
…and the Bunnymen?
Go ahead. Report me. Not only would I be surprised to get moderated for that (I’ve insulted plenty of trolls in the past, including ones getting moderated), if I did, I think it’d do nothing more than martyr me to all my followers. Viva la Rando!!!!!!
Will do.
‘Cuz it takes a real man to admit when he acted like a jerk. Martyr my a@@.
Takes a bigger man to not be a jackass to begin with. Looks like you’ve still got growing up to do.
Where did I attack Rando, or anyone else?
I think if I got kicked off of here it wouldn’t go over very well. The people, they lurvs their Rando. I don’t call myself Amazing for nothing. LOL
Rando, I hate to point it out, but you aren’t calling yourself Amazing right now!
Just because it’s not in my name doesn’t mean I don’t still call myself amazing.
I knew I’d seen that before. Behold. Your name in a kludge.
LMAO! Rando! You’re a kludge!
Dude, who the hell posted pics of my magic fridge? That kludge is a total win just for the Amazing Rando reference along with the MST3K movie clips too.
“Eastman. He came out of the east to do battle with THE AMAZING RANDO!!!!”
And I whooped Eastman’s ass I might add.
Ouch. Balls that weigh about 1,300 grams each. Oowowoowowowowow.
I can safely say that few here want a high-five from Dhoti . . . . I certainly do not.
I am still wondering how you knew that about the elephants….
(I just picked the biggest land mammal that I could think of — I don’t think whales have that particular equipment.
)
They may have retractable testicles? Like rabbits, when it’s not mating season male rabbits male bits retract. Then can make it rather interesting determining the gender of a bunny.
Unless you were in 4-H, DU.
Apparently they do have testes, and apparently the Right Whale’s testes can weigh over a ton. I think that definitely qualifies as TMI.
Mabs: If talking to me, I meant average human brain is about 1,300 grams.
Ah, Nao, I thought you meant the testicles were that size. It seemed like an odd bit of trivia to know.
Another odd bit of trivia? Your liver is often heavier than your brain.
I’ve done a few autopsies . . .
Ugh. No offense, but ugh. I visited a friend while he was attending med school, and he wanted to show me ‘his’ cadaver. I kept demurring until finally I had to point out that he wasn’t going to win brownie points with his instructor by having his friend puke all over their cadaver room (or whatever it’s called). It’s important to know one’s limitations.
Oh, all right . . . I have to ‘fess up. Haven’t done them myself, so much as assisted, and have often transcribed the result.
Boy, I really *did* get under your skin didn’t I, fool? That’s really amusing.
Liar.
Liar liar liar liar.
Liar.
*ahem* I believe the appropriate response is “Liar liar pants on fire!”
Hanging from a telephone wire!
I heard he’s good friends with cheater cheater pumpkin eater.
“Democrats steal close elections.” Talking point FAIL!! Whee!!! also [citation needed]
Well after reading all the mudslinging above ^^^
I am glad I am not a Democrat.
Indeed, Democrats suck, liberals PWN!
*terrorist fist bumps Max*
It’s true that the Democrats just aren’t nearly liberal enough. But they’re all we’ve got. *sigh*
EWAdams socks- they use a lot
Maybe we can wash them and they can get lost in the dryer forever?
We should be so lucky!!
Yep, Cheney is evil. And yet, it’s the compassionate Democrats who keep murdering all the babies. Go figure.
We don’t care what you think.
Somebody did once.
They got better.
No one cares what you think.
no one cares what you think
No one cares what you think. You didn’t learn from last time did you? Can we get a permaban on this twit? *goes to get the banhammer*
You! Troll slayer! Why have you not removed this troll yet?
I thought someone already tried to get rid of this one once.
Maybe it’s part cat and has multiple lives? Either way, off you go. Take the BIG sword this time.
We’ll see soon enough if I succeeded.
Typical Liberal– Rando wants to censor anyone who doesn’t agree with him . You just HATE the First Amendment, don’t you ?
Are you just messing with me or are you serious?
I was wondering that same thing.
I also am confused.
Also, if you are being serious, First Amendment rights apply to censorship from the government. The do not apply to a website such as this, where the moderators are free to remove any language/comments that they feel are extremely insensitive. We, as free citizens, have the right to call attention to the moderators if someone is being grossly out of line – as the two most recent posts that were moderated – they were extremely racist. We being offended, and believing the moderators would not want that tripe on their webpage, spoke up.
The other moderation (and blackballing) that I know of was a series of vicious personal attacks on Rando – that were also particularly offensive to people who have/had children.
So, once again, First Amendment Rights do not apply to proprietors of private websites. If we appeal, and they choose to leave it, that is their right. If we appeal (or even if we don’t), that is also their right. Now, The Government has no right to say “Hey! PK! You’re a bad site and we are now censoring you!” That is a violation of the First Amendment. That is also something Rando would never approve of.
If you want to hang out where people are continuously (and encouraged to) be racist and viciously offensive (which the Government cannot censor, but personal website owners can) I would suggest a KKK or WBC forum.
*sigh*
“If we appeal (or even if we don’t), that is also their right.” = “If we appeal (or even if we don’t), and they remove it, that is also their right.”
No cares what you think.
No one cares what you think.
Those babies were guilty! And convicted by a court of their peers!
Why don’t we hear about that whackjob that shot up our military at Ft. Hood? Oh no, the real evil here is Cheney. Let’s hear more about Cheney.
Well, actually, they did put up a pic of Ft. Hood back around when it happened and (oddly enough) there was a majority of folks who felt it was TOOOOOO SOOOOOONN!!!!11 (which, because it was like the next day, I think it actually was).
So, in conclusion, beer. Oh, I mean, I think they may have just been avoiding that subject since. But it’s been a while, maybe now?
Also, beer. And Xanax. Preferably together with some Vicodin.
Well, I guess I meant in the news, because someone up above mentioned Cheney was in the news recently. But, my bad for not responding directly to that convo… Oh, and many happy beers to you too. But, those drugs are bad for you.
Pffffffffff. Drugs? Bad? For ME? I’m immune to the badness of drugs. Don’t you read my postings?* Silly n10bettes.
I actually have a prescription for these, the Vicodin I had to get the other day because my Doosh of a landlord has not salted my front walk in forever and I slid on a patch of ice and landed flat on my back. It was excruciating. Actually, it still kind of is.
But I don’t really drink anymore, so I’m not going to mix with alcohol, because if I learned one thing from YEARS of drug and alcohol abuse I learned this: Xanax + Vicodin + Liquor = coma for at least three days. Liberal as I am I actually have a job and I don’t think they’d appreciate Charro Coma for three days. LOL.
What? A job? Haven’t you been keeping up? Only conservatives have jobs.
You made me laugh, however, because one of my tutoring students had the flu last month and I was helping her catch up over the weekend. She seemed kind of unfocused, and finally I asked what they gave her for the residual cough — cough medicine with code1ne.
Yummy.
Eeek. They’re starting them young.
Code1ne cough syrup used to be SOP when I was a child. I know because I got bronchitis every single year, sometimes twice. Amazing that I didn’t have to stay back in school!
Once upon a time a shot of whiskey was SOP for most forms of illness. Though that was before c0deine was invented.
Mom said it is very good for teething pains (not a shot, just applied topically). Of course, they didn’t have oragel back then.
Shot of whiskey is SOP for me anytime after 5pm.
I’m more of a vodka drinker myself. Or absinthe. I have a lovely bottle of absinthe in my room right now.
Rum is often used by my family if rubbing alcohol isn’t available.
Not very good for gall bladder attacks though. –yes, I tried.
Hee hee. You all must smell like real drunks when you’re sick.
Now we know why all the rum is gone.
The rum is always gone when I’m around.
I’ve learned the hard way, however, that any amount of alcohol is REALLY bad for me when I’m sick. The same for exercise. My immune system must be really sensitive to anything that depresses it.
Ah, I believe if VG is substituting rum for rubbing alcohol, she’s not suggesting drinking it.
As for drinking, the only thing I can think of that actually works is hot tea with honey, lemon and whiskey for a sore throat/cough. The whiskey acts as a local analgesic. But in general, I believe that’s true for everyone.
I don’t have any rum, sorry; you are welcome to share my Baileys — assuming you are not sick. I wouldn’t want to make you sicker.
I’d love some Bailey’s! It’s been awhile!
But since I’ve broken out the homemade wine, which has been sitting here for several years, I’d better not . . . the last few times I had a bit of this wine, I got a nasty headache, but I really wanted some. If I have a migraine tomorrow, maybe I can just blame it on my approaching period.
Well dear Charro, you are probably young but those bad things you put in your body now will come back to haunt you when you get older. They mess up your nervous system and brain functions not to mention your liver and organs… Just be careful… we all want you to live a long healthy life!
Well.. Healthy life yeah. I don’t plan on living long enough to get old.. So I’ll keep taking my meds as prescribed. They keep me from suicide.
Getting old isn’t so bad, as long as you can stay healthy and independent until you drop over dead. Which is what I plan to do.
LOL, well, once “healthy and independent” fails, I plan to “drop over dead”, preferably from some kind of pleasant “opioid overdose”.
I want to die by being smothered to death by a pair of very large breasts.
Join a WoW guild.
Smother to death in your own moobs!
Slide!
Yeah.. Major fail on your part love.
I can probably help you out, but by the time you’re ready, you’re not going to want my help . . .
ROFL
The wackjob–not funny. Really sad in many ways.
Cheney on the other hand can be the source of munch (freudian typo left in) funny. And this is a lol site.
GAH! I was ninja’ed!
QK
Q8K
AAAM, after all!
Now thems are the ninjas I like.
Did you ever see that one where they were ninja fighting by flying through the air and fukcing each other? That one was great.
I think I missed that one. How did they determine the winner?
I forget.. I mean.. Really how does one “win” a battle like that?
Making the other person cum more? Or maybe cumming more than the other person? I’m not really sure….
Sounds to me like everyone wins that battle.
That’s a win/win/win situation, both the fighters “win” and we “win” for getting to watch it!
Yeah, where do I sign up to be a sex ninja?
Sounds like any given Dead or Alive video game.
whackjob who shot up military=not funny
whackjob who *really* ran the country for 8 years=well, not all that funny, but funnier than Ft. Hood. Would Ft. Hood really make a good LOL? I think not. Cheney? Loads of comic potential, if done better than this.
I do also remember the outcry about the Wal-Mart tramplings last Christmas. I guess it’s easier to make fun of people who caused thousands-millions (depending on you asked) of deaths in a second hand fashion, than it is to make fun of someone who went berserk and shot up a military base.
I mean, would we make fun of Timothy McVeigh? I dunno now that I think about it. Would we?
It’s the only way to dull the horror of him.
Well, we could cut his heart out with a spoon.
Ah, curse Capital Punishment! *waves fist*
I just realized that you should invert your icon, too.
But then you can’t see my sexy sexy mermaid picture as clearly.
*prostrates self*
Would you like the cat’o'nine or the riding crop?
Listen, if you don’t pick one, you’re getting both.
Can I have one the first week, and then the other the next?
::pantpant::
You can have whatever you want babydoll.
I had NO idea that pic looked like that, Charro. None.
Nice.
I am pretty hot huh.
Waaaaay!
Hot enough to make a straight girl turn left!
Well, let me know when you wanna swing this way
This conversation is relevant to my interests.
It’s different when you’re not talking about the person who actually pulled the trigger. (Unless you’re a Truther, but then you’ve got worse problems.)
On the other hand, Achmed the Dead Terrorist is damn funny, so that kind of shoots a hole in that theory.
No joke is unfunny or inappropriate (HATE that word) when the aim is true.
Well, but, Achmed is more of a cornucopia of “All Arab/Muslim Terrorists” (while I’m sure most people think Osama), instead of an actual caricature of someone “real”.
You know, like Timmy The Dead Oklahoma City Bomber. That would be a little different.
But, I guess brak has a point of his own – sometimes the best way to dull the pain in with humour. Some people find that inappropriate, some laugh their ass off. Different strokes I guess. I make fun of horrible things in my life (addiction/alcoholism/general craziness) because if I don’t.. Well it’s really fukcing depressing.
And don’t go around shooting things Dhoti! You’ll be Dhoti the Dead Interwebs Terrorist!
Individual vs. group identity desensitization. It’s a helluva lot easier to eat faceless “chicken” than it is to eat “Chicken Little” for most people. Similarly, it’s a helluvalot easier to condemn to death a “domestic terrorist” than it is to think of cute little Timmy from up-the-street dangling from a hangman’s noose.
Desensitization might apply if the government was trying to tell us, for example, that all pro-lifers are domestic terrorists. But when sweet little Timmy went off and murdered people — a lot of people — in cold blood, that’s a bit different.
I disagree with you all on this. My take on it is that ‘Timmy’ isn’t funny because of the particular act that he committed. Whereas ‘Numbnuts the militia-member domestic terrorist’ could be funny, as we don’t associate particular victims with a composite character.
Don’t get me wrong — I’m not saying I think he’s funny, just that I don’t think desensitization applies here.
You might have a point in that–we haven’t had years of Hollywood-izing of a ‘Timmy’, unlike ‘Achmed’. And I don’t think ‘Timmy’s’ show up in video games? (I don’t play them, so I’m not sure on that one)
Eeps. Is this the 2nd horseman of the Apocalypse–a viking gal-Dhoti point of agreement?
*laughs maniacally* Mwuhahahahahahahahaha
It might be. Keep an eye on your cats and your dogs.
I want to say that Hollywood briefly worked on the domestic terrorist, i.e. “corn-fed killer”, angle, around the time of the Atlanta bombings, Waco, and Oklahoma City, but it didn’t stick.
24 would be a good indicator, too. I don’t watch it, so I can’t tell you, but I’m guessing domestic terrorists have shown up there from time to time.
*looks up from watching 24*
Whut?
They have had domestic terrorism, in fact once a nuclear bomb went off in LA. Though, I think the premise (and the acceptance of it) comes from a different angle – “Look How Hard Jack Bauer (faceless hero representing all of the US Government) Works To Singlehandedly Save Us From Doom!”. So we are given a very driven, dedicated hero who combats terrorism and stops at nothing to save his beloved nation. It gives a warm fuzzy feeling to us who think that there might actually be someone like that in our government who does that (I can’t think of one – LOL).
Interestingly enough, there have been times where Jack has, literally, tortured people. It’s odd to me that the show has been as accepting because of this little tidbit, but (and maybe my perception is skewed because I have the hots for Kiefer shhhhh), they do a good job painting Jack not as someone who thinks he is above the law, but a tortured soul who loves his country so much, and the freedoms he fights for every day so much, that he is willing to give up his own freedom, and his own life, to protect ours.
Ok, I didn’t mean to go on such a rant there, but 24 really doesn’t make light of terrorism. It gives us a likeable hero and a sense that maybe, someone out there actually cares as much as he to save us all from terrorism – whether how he gets there is “right” or “wrong” – but he is such a Wonderful Human Being(TM). (unlike most of the douchebags we have in our goverment [on both sides]) that he is willing to take responsibility for what he does.
In conclusion, I heart Kiefer.
Damn! How do you do that ™. thing?
Hahahahha! Ok, well it’s too late for my post, but I figured it out. *pats self on back*
I should have said “theoretically,” and I don’t find it funny, either.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm…lobster…tasty lobster. Wait, was there something after lobster?
Kiefer Sutherland?
Oh wait that was a different post.
You had me at lobster. You offering real butter?
Nicely stated. Thanks for the clarification.
Wait, are you thanking mabs for the the clarification? Cause all she did was say “lobster lobster mmm”. Which, I guess could be clarifying if all you were worried about was the lobster portion of my ramblings.
Me so brilliant! Summed up Charro’s post in two sentences.
(I think there was a reply error there.)
Mmmmmm lobster.
LOL! Nesting fail. @oɹɹɐɥɔ. But nicely stated by BOTH of you!
LOL. Thanks. Sometimes my incoherent ramblings end up making sense. I’m glad I did!
This is going to sound idiotic — but I actually didn’t think they served whole lobsters at Red Lobster.
The last time I was there (August 2009), they still had the tank up front from where you could choose your victim.
I’ve never been able to bring myself to point to one and say “That on looks the tastiest! I’ll name him George! Now boil him and serve him to me with extra butter!”
Though lobster is nummy. Unless you accidentally eat a lung. *hurk*
Wait, lobster lungs? They don’t have lungs. Was that a joke or do they have some strange lung-like organ?
I did. (Obsessive scientist trait.) No lungs, but I was thinking that maybe inside there’s something that looks like lungs and might be called that when using lay terms. I didn’t find actual internal pics, so couldn’t figure that out.
After looking it up, it looks like the breathe through gills.
I think not-Charro is referring to the tomalley: it does kind of look like a lung.
I think we need VG. Medicine is NOT my field. But since lobsters don’t breath air, I can’t see how they would inhale.
I’ve never had lobster. I feel left out.
Rando, do yourself a favor and don’t try it unless you’re on the East Coast. At home, it’ll either taste like crap, or you’ll be gouged on price.
(Found that one out the hard way.)
Also, as a vague follow-up to our Katrina talk — the first agency on the scene in Haiti? Coast Guard. Coasties FTW.
Well, you know what, in all honesty.. I don’t know much about crustacean physiology.
I just recall (and we all know how faulty my memory is), that I, hubby and friend went to Red Lobster. Friend had his lobster and ate something that made him *hurk* and someone (I don’t remember who) said “Don’t eat the lungs”.
Being not a marine biologist, I just went with it an never looked it up. So, my bads for posting faulty information.
But I know some internal lobster organ is icky! Don’t eat it!
Yeah, probably the tomalley — little nasty green thing. Digestive, I think.
I prefer tamales.
I’ve never tried the gills. No thanks.
There is also the roe in females–red, plastic-looking. Not too interesting, in my opinion.
Oh, the nasty green thing!! Ewwwwww!
I had some crab legs at Red Lob which REEEKED of ammonia when I got it into my mouth . . . it was one of those things where it didn’t hit my nose until it was already in the mouth–absolutely horrendous! They replaced the legs with King and told me they wouldn’t charge me…. then proceeded to charge me. I was so DONE with eating by that time. Have you ever EATEN ammonia? I thought I’d been POISONED. Seriously.
Um, sounds like an experience I would rather forego. But thanks.
I think Dhoti’s right – it’s that tamale.. er.. tomalley thing.
Friend almost vomited on the table.
Yes Rando, eat lobster from Maine, in Maine. Maine lobster, FTW! Best lobster ever.
Just like the best Alaskan king crab.. is in Alaska!
Max- I say we get them hooked on chew.
Lobster in Seattle is also FTW. Delish, actually.
I’ve tried Seattle lobster — wasn’t thrilled. But then I might just be a snob.
They have them off the Keys, too. Spiny, horrible little things.
Thinking about eating anything in Seattle makes me queasy – as a little girl I got food poisoning at the Space Needle.
While intellectually I know that’s not the whole city of Seattle’s fault.. It’s a conditioned response I guess.
Probably because I HAVE tried Florida lobster (BLEH) and haven’t tried Maine lobster. Hope to one day, however.
Next time you have a nice fresh lobster, I’ll eat your tomale for you! –erm, maybe I should clear that with my BF first?
—
The tomale (sp?) is actually the liver. And if it is a fresh, east coast lobster (I can’t speak for west coast ones), then it is quite yummy.
Lobsters have gills, not lungs. They can’t inhale unless you can get the substance dissolved into their water first!
The only really good lobster is from the north eastern coast I’m afraid, Florida tries… it really does, but it can’t compare to a Maine Lobster!
Dammit, all this food talk is making me hungry. I had to go order some seafood for delivery.
Well, ok, but the best Alaskan King Crab I had came directly from Alaska in like 6 hours. Ok, so it was flash frozen, but still. It was delicious.
I took Oceanography for one of my sciences in college and they have some nasty looking deep sea crabs that creep me out. Janie, I understand where you’re coming from.
Dhoti – I had a McRib. *hangs head in shame* Now I want King Crab.
Well, no doubt it was good but that was kind of my point. They send it out so quickly that if you’re actually living in Alaska (especially in Fairbanks which in addition to being in the middle of the state is also one of the circles of hell) you have a hard time getting it. Maybe if you lived near the coast, like Anchorage, it’d be easier to get.
I’m jealous — I LURV the McRib. (But only two per year max.)
Speaking of which, more advice for the lobster noobs: DO NOT try the McLobster. (I was in Boston one summer and couldn’t help myself. It was like lobster-flavored mayo on a stale roll.)
And that was grossed and you should be ashamed of showing me that.
Jane – my sister and brother in law were in Fairbanks when they sent me that lobster. So, point taken.
Dhoti – that was my second this year, I think I’m done LOL. Also.. McLobster? Sounds horrifying.
Well, I await your punishment Jane.
And, obviously, I meant crab when I said “Fairbanks.. Lobster.” Sheesh.
I don’t believe in eating anything that lives in water. Seafood, lake food, river food, aquarium food. All bleh. I’ll stick to beef tamales instead of lobster tomales. For the smoking lobster, maybe something bong like might work. Set up a hookah using it’s fish tank?
Okay, about 50 posts later, I’ll say, thanks for the advice (really). I’ll probably just stick to the shrimp or something, I dunno. I never leave the midwest so I think my chances of eating really fresh seafood anywhere are pretty slim anyway. LOL
Well, if you’re ever in the middle of Mexico, and you get stopped in the middle of the road by a guy selling shrimp.. In a zip lock baggie.. Don’t buy any. Really. Don’t.
More good advice that I’ll take. Thank you, charro. And I also lurvs the McRib, but that should come as no surprise.
The other day I was at Wendy’s. I luvs me some Wendy’s but there are hardly any here (kinda like you and the Jack in the Box).
Oh, my wife was in Chicago all last week. She kept raving about eating at Dunkin Donuts. I haven’t seen a Dunkin Donuts in 15 years. I want some goddamned Dunkin Donuts!!!!! We need to arrange a meeting around Springfield where I bring you Jack in the Box and you bring me Dunkin Donuts.
Rando, I am so down for that meeting.
All you have to do is give it the name of one of your enemies — my last one was named PortlandMark. (*ducks from the admins*)
Lobsters are yet another data point confirming that we’re only supposed to eat the ugly animals.
Apparently you’ve never eaten deer or rabbit, both of which were fed to me by my stepfather as a child. Bambi & Thumper, no!!!!!
I like venison, but I don’t think they’re all that cute. I’ll give you rabbit, though. (I think I’ve only had it as part of a tasting menu.)
It’s a perfect example of what happens when you remove all the predators of a particular species from an ecosystem. And people don’t hunt enough to keep the herds down.
BTW, you’re much more coherent and easy to like when you just ‘talk’ rather than channeling all those characters.
Oh, and you should always remember Poe’s Law when posting.
I like deer but I don’t know if I’ve ever actually had rabbit. I always cried when I was in 4-H (yeah laugh it up I raised rabbits) and we’d have out shows and there were meat pens. Rex rabbits make the best meat, and they are so sweet and cute. I definitely couldn’t kill then eat a rabbit. Though, if it was already dead and you know, um. Carved? I would give it a shot. I’m pretty adventurous when it comes to eating.
I used to have a Rex. She was evil and terrified my cat, she also tried to kill me a number of times. Though rabbit in general is pretty tasty, not much a fan of venison though, the stuff I had was just too gamey.
Well.. Like any animal, there’s always exceptions..
All the Rexes (Rexs?) I ever encountered were sweet and soft and loveable.
Um, sorry a rabbit tried to kill you.
Actually, because rabbits were bread for looks and not personality/behavior traits, breed has no effect on a rabbits personality. I..uh…I read up on rabbits alot when I had one.
Hee hee. Rabbit bread.
Rabbits are bred for two things – looks and meat. Some breeds are just generally more affable than others. Dutch Rabbits? Bad juju. Lops? Good juju. They all have their exceptions though.
Yeah, rabbits on bread. Great sandwich.
I have a migraine and it’s trying to eat my brain…
Awwwwwwww. Poor DU. *pushes V1cod1n through the interwebs* Try this. It won’t help the typing, but it’ll help the migraine.
Yeah, after I had surgery last year I had plenty left over and I found it worked great on migraines. Mostly because it has a strong sedating effect on me, so I would take that and the imatrex and when I woke up the migraine would be gone. Sadly I took all my vid0cine.
V1cod1n is actually what I take by prescription for migraines. None of the fancy, expensive migraine drugs do anything for me. (Ooops, I lie. Imatrix almost made me puke.) But seeing a DOM (Doctor of Oriental Medicine) is the best thing I’ve done for them. Unfortunately that’s entirely out of pocket.
I’m sorry love. I know how much they suck. *hugs*
As for rabbit, you know the old saying. It tastes like chicken. Which is what my stepdad told me it was. He also fooled me into eating cow tongue once. I hated that man.
I have a friend who’s a massage therapist who does wonders for my migraines. But that’s out of pocket for me too. I think I’m going to try to get a prescription for vic0din to go with the Imitrex because lately it hasn’t been working that well.
There is at least one (maybe two) drugs that are similar to Imatrix that might work if Imatrix has worked for you before. I love my V1cod1n, but I only need it on average once per week at the most. Doctors are weird about prescribing it, though. They kept telling me that I should take psych drugs DAILY instead. Take a look at the side effects for those — WOW. So now I see a nurse practitioner. They’re so much more practical.
Deer are SOOOOOOO TASTY!! Only red meat worth eating!
Crap, I forgot to misspell “fukc” it’s being moderated.
I think lobsters are kind of cute actually..
But honestly, even if I named a lobster after my enemy.. Could you really eat something named “Fukco The Clown”? Or “Captain Fukcface”? Too silly.
Only in Tijuana. For the right price.
So if you’re moderated for using bad words, do they chase you with a bar of soap?
MMMphphwophfffweep.
Ptui.
Sorry, I had soap in my mouth.
I never realized that crazy names could serve as a defense mechanism.
However, lobster John Kerry was *delicious*.
I don’t know if I could name a lobster “John Kerry” and do anything but laugh while trying to consume it – likely resulting in a heimlich or two.. Followed by a few broken ribs.
I don’t think I would want to eat anything named after a politician.
Lobster John Kerry was likely more lively than person John Kerry.
Probably cuter too.
Yay! Your swearing got un-moderated!
Hooray!
WOOHOO!!! The moderators must know who I am talking about.
Seriously, both those people are fukctards.
Also, this.
Soylent green is babehs!! ZOMG!
*snort* Looks delicious.
You are either really stupid, or a shameless liar.
Either way, shut up.
You shut up instead, especially since you don’t have too much to say.
No no, the appropriate response is “Make like a tree, and get outta here.”
Oh man, I totally get that now! LOL!!! D’oh!
Well.. No offense.. But it was obvious.
Yeah. :blush:
None taken.
Just forgot the reference for a bit…
That’s all right. I’m sure we’ll both get over it with time and therapy.
Either you are stupid, and won’t understand this, or you are a liar, and won’t listen. So I know I am wasting my time, but I will do it anyway.
You claim that Bush and Cheney did what needed to be done to protect us.
Bush was explicitly warned that bin Laden was determined to attack the US. He was warned that he would try to attack with commercial airliners. Bush ignored this. And then after the attack claimed no one could have known the attack was coming or what its nature would be.
Bush was warned explicitly that the levees in New Orleans were likely to fail when Katrina hit. He did nothing. He did pretend he could play guitar at some musician’s birthday party while the levees were failing. He then claimed that no one could have known the levees would fail.
So Bush and Cheney didn’t do sh1t to keep us safe, even when they were warned what was coming. All they did was try to cover their a$$es after their colossal failures.
These incidents are widely published. So you are either too stupid to be aware of common knowledge, or you are lying in hopes no one will point out the failures.
Repeating false stories does nothing to advance the debate. Therefore, shut your pie hole.
Yes, they’re both widely published — which makes the naivete you show in distilling two systematic, multi-decadal failures down to “BUSH IS BAD HURRR” even more shocking.
Please don’t vote, and whatever you do, don’t reproduce.
Oh, so now you are putting words in my mouth? WTF is that, you liar?
Omigod. I had NO idea people thought Bush so powerful and prophetic that he could predict and stop a hurricane…
ZOMG! BUSH IS THE MESSIAH!
You too, putting words in my mouth. Another liar.
It is shocking that supporters of Bush are liar.
Oh, wait, no it isn’t.
Did you get kicked out of another boarding school? Damn it, Lorraine, do you know how much perfectly good dough I blow on this no-good kid of yours, huh? On all three of them!
I’ve got a feeling biff up there hates manure.
Uh… now Biff, I want make sure that we get two coats of wax this time. Not just one.
Just make sure you don’t do that guy’s homework for him.
I always liked the juvenile “I don’t shut up, I grow up, and when I look at you I throw up.” I mean, if you want to sink to their level you have to do it with class.
And rhyming.
I’m rubber and you’re glue and whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you!
You know what. I may disagree with a lot…most…ok, almost all of what n10bettes says, but I don’t think she’s stupid and I think you’re seriously out of line. The liberals don’t need liberatrolls any more than the conservatives need conservatrolls.
Well, I said stupid or a liar.
And now, liar has been confirmed.
So, no, I am not out of line.
Liar has been confirmed? The migraine must be killing my brain because I missed the confirmation but. Could you please point it out to poor dumb me?
In biff’s mind, liar has been confirmed by him and his imaginary friends.
I can’t decide whether to report him to the admins (oh noes!) or prostrate myself before his mad rhetorical skillz.
Prostrating your self definitely has more sex appeal, I think.
Prostating himself might, too
Of course it wouldn’t! I stand by my statement! It’s acceptable!
I don’t think he’s bad enough to be moderated. He’s not offensive…just a moron. I am impressed with his usage of the words “stupid” and “liar.” They are his paint and PK is his canvas.
Who am I kidding. He’s a fvcking tool.
Shut up, you lying stupid liar who is stupid and lies.
(I agree — mostly, I just wanted to throw around the admin thing a little bit. PM’s warning the other day tickled me, in a bad place.)
*tickles Dhoti in a good place*
*runs away giggling*
Dammit, now I have to prostrate *again*…
Heeeeee… *breaks out the feather and warming gel*
Now this is a bit unexpected.
Well, I mean, Dhoti did prostrate himself. What was I supposed to do? I’m an equal opportunity tickler.
Well, for most people. I think Dhoti and I can work out our differences. It’ll just take more feathers and gel.
Yeah, I wouldn’t take that too seriously. Even at our worst disagreements I would never expect you to get moderated. Or want you to either. What fun would that be?
I kept reading his posts thinking of an episode of Family Guy…(clicky for linky)
“Why can’t we all get along?” Rodney King
LOL — priceless!
Yeah, I’m not terribly worried.
There’s no mention of the Fort Hood shooter, probably because he is still in medical treatment due to his spinal injury.
Today there was mention via several news outlets that there will probably be at least 8 senior officers indited due to not bringing proper actions due to his erratic behavior and his dreadful performance as a military psychiatrist. The guy was reported as a risk to his patients by one of his colleagues, but his superior officers responded by giving him a highly desired award instead of a performance review.
Gods I wish MY life worked out like that.
Er, minus the massacre part, naturally.
*sigh of relief* Glad that you added that. I was starting to think you messed up your meds.
I imagine him saying RAWR just before this face.
More like ter-rawr. ter-rawrists. arrgghh. Ter-rawrism. arrghhh. Be afraid, be very very afraid so I can sell myself and my corporate buddies as protectors, err, protect-awrs. arrgghh!
No, I’m thinking just ‘Rawr, rawrawrawr, rawrwar.”
Chinese food anyone?
Warming gel and ginger, cumming right up..
Wow! 500+ comments on a Sunday LOL, and not that much flaming! Is this a new record?
LYAR!!234
Liar! Liar! Yor pants on fire! (I just wanted to shout out that… nothing personal, it’s directed to ALL of us/me/them/those.)
Pancheros is really not a good replacement for Jack-in-the-Box either.
Where’s Panchero’s? DSM? I haven’t eaten in DSM in eons!
I thought they were littered all over Iowa. There are a couple in Iowa City and I believe I have seen one in Dubuque.
Next time you’re heading down the river road from Dubuque, stop by the Mississippi Narrows and say, “Hi!” This town is too small for most chains, but I’ll see if the Quad-Cities has them. I’ll be danged! There’s one on Utica Ridge Road in Davenport. You do or don’t recommend?
Its better than a lot of fast food, but it is really not that great compared to other chains of its type: Chipotle or Moe’s.
I just miss decent Mexican food. (My plan is to seek out Mexican on Tuesday when I get back to Iowa).
I go up to Dubuque quite often – there is a ski area there I work at/ ski at.
Decent Mexican food? Take a different road home, and stop in Sterling/Rock Falls, IL. Trust me.
I know it well. I’ve never skiied, but I’ve been there a few times, anyway. We take that back road into Galena, on the motorcycles — you know the one I mean? It’s a good ride.
Whoops….subject change in the paragraphs. Was only going to post one, then I added another when I reread your post.
I am non sequitur-girl. Or so it looks.
This is a common problem for me.
Sadly my flight is to CDR and not MLN-Quad Cities. I have a layover in Chicago so maybe I will be able to leave the airport.
I haven’t been down that road, but I hear it is pretty fun.
I looked up the airport code and that’s Chadron, NE. No way… you meant Cedar Rapids, right? That’s CID. Moline is MLI.
I’m learning them so I can beat my friends at a stupid FB quiz. That’s sad, isn’t it? Yeah, that’s sad.
I did mean Cedar Rapids. I seem to have a mental block on remembering CID and MLI even though I fly through them quite often.
Layover at Ohare or Midway? OHare, you’re not going to find too much… Midway, you might find something good, but watch yerself. Take a gun. Oh, wait, exiting plane…um, buy a knife? LOL
O’Hare
Well, I never explored it fully, I should say. It just seemed like it was all hotels and a convention center. I stayed at the Doubletree—nice hotel, even though the night clerk was RUDE when I walked in, early in the a.m. and tired as hell. She sniffed the price at me like I couldn’t afford it. I wanted to say something snotty, but was too tired and desirous of a room in which to get comfortable.
Wait, how long is your layover?
My brother in law works at O’Hate. Erm, O’Hare.
Oops, I had it mixed up with Galena. Durrr. Told ya I don’t ski. LOL
Its not far though. There is another ski area in Galena. Just not the one I go to most of the time. Its even farther from IC.
I’ve never been down your ways in IA before. My wife worked in Davenport for some time and I go up to Dubuque a lot, but I have never traveled between them.
Oh, you must! It’s beautiful. Either side of the river.
Check out some of the new FB pics I posted last night and today. You are the formerly Bitter Wino, right?
Yes
formerly bitter. I felt it was time for a change, but not sure what will come of it yet.
Chipotles is good, but it isn’t real Mexican food.
I have been informed by my aunt that they have real Mexican food in Hutchinson, Kansas. The stuff we have here in southern CA, 5-30 minutes away from the Mexican border is not, in fact, real Mexican, despite the um…Mexicans that work there, own the place, and choose what goes on the menu.
Tuesday is the best day to go Mexican Food seeking because Tuesday is Taco Tuesday.
Yeah, Chipotles is definitely nowhere close to ‘real’ Mexican food, but even it is much closer to decent Mexican food than I have had in the last 5 months.
There were a number of places right outside of Atlanta where I grew up that seemed to have pretty authentic Mexican.
I like Taco Tuesday.
Believe me, Mexicans work and live all over the country. There is probably good authentic Mexican food just about everywhere probably even Canada at this point. There might be regional differences, even in Mexico the food changes with the location. Sonoran style is different than Mexico City style, etc.
I can’t stand Mexican food. That’s why I love Taco Bell.
*headdesk* It’s funny cause it’s true!
Good lord, this is a good lesson to read the whole thread first.
Having lived in Mexico for 6 months, I can honestly say that I cannot find good Mexican food in the States. Texmex? Sure. Meximerican? Sure. But not good, true Mexican food.
That’s because all the Sonoran cooks in the US are busy making French (and other high-end) food.
I have never been to Mexico, but I did used to work with a number of people from different parts of Mexico when I was in high school. They were pretty awesome and nearly always shared the food they brought/made (i worked fast food). I learned from them the wonderful lesson that one should try to go to the most remote/ run down looking Mexican restaurants and that is where teh best food is found.
Yes. That is a fact. If it looks like the building will fall over if you look at to hard, or it’s a dingy little doorway shoved between two much nicer buildings, then you know they have the good stuff. The term we use is ‘Hole-in-the-wall mexican food’.
You mean they aren’t in IL!?
Apparently there is only one in IL. -clicky
I don’t even know where Westchester is. LOL.
What is this “Pancheros” you speak of? Do they have Jumbo Jacks?
It is not actually as exciting as it sounds. There is much better real Mexican food in Chicago. They have fast food Mexican, but on a better scale than something like Taco Bell. They make their own tortillas to order. mmmm. Mexican
Last week I thoroughly enjoyed a sourdough ultimate cheeseburger at Jack in the Box. *laughs maniacally and disappears in a cloud of smoke*
*whispers* That’s not a cloud of smoke, that’s a cloud of lard.
And now for some reason I’m craving Taco Bell.
…
I didn’t know lard made clouds.
It does after you eat too much….and it doesn’t smell so great *puts on gas mask*
You’re evil.
What do you eat Ioannes?
I eat unborn babies. *Savors taste of unborn babies* So much tastier than kittens.
I try to limit it to unborn baby chickens, myself.
Your complete and utter hatred of everything and everyone shows you have not accepted the love of Jesus into your heart as you constantly claim to have done and demand others do. If yours is the love of Jesus, I’ll stick to the indifference of nothingness, thanks anyways.
If you want to be really sick, read his blog. He’s one of those psychotic sick fvcks who thinks Haiti deserved its earthquake. When this dude gets to the pearly gates, I want video of God ripping him a new one.
Heh. I take that back. Apparently Paul got a bit of backlash for that blog post as he has written a bit of a retraction saying he doesn’t believe that after all. What a twit.
Reading his posts on here makes me sick enough as it is. I definitely don’t need to read his blog….
No you don’t. It’s just like his posts here, only much longer. I read it out of morbid curiosity. Pathetic.
You definitely need to get that new job, Rando.
The “right to choose” means exactly that; the right to make a decision for yourself, rather than have some self-righteous conservatroll force their morality on you.
You know that saying “Jesus loves you, everyone else thinks you’re an asshole?”…..
I think even Jesus would try to avoid being in the same room with this guy. Would have some pretty harsh words as well.
Perhaps we should bestow upon him the patented cgray response of “No one cares what you think”.
No, we need something different, yet also simple. Something like “Jesus doesn’t love you.” That oughta do the trick.
“Jesus loves you, but he doesn’t really like you.”
If Jesus can love that twit, then he’s a better man than I. (Well, he is anyway, sure…what are you guys looking at?)
I like it! “Jesus doesn’t love you” for Ioannes/Paul and “No one cares what you think” for cgray.
Not as disgusting as your post. Jesus, keep your sick wack-off fantasies to yourself next time, Paul.
Ignore the trolls and maybe they’ll go away. Wish I had something witty to say, but I wanted to let you guys (and gals) know you made my day. The series following Ender’s general Bean is great by the way.(not brilliant but at least it rhymed. )
I don’t remember Obama performing my abortion. Or any other one for that matter. In fact, is Obama even a doctor? I don’t think they allow people that aren’t doctors to perform abortions. Something about that being illegal or something.
In short, you are an idiot and a terrible Christian. I can’t believe you live in a world where you distrust everyone who wants to make the world better just because they don’t live in the same narrow, hate-filled world that you do.
You are a disgusting human being. Jesus Christ would be ashamed of you and indeed He would denounce your acts as decidedly Un-Christlike.
Jesus loved everybody. Ioannes loves no one.
I’m sure Jesus can love someone and simultaneously be ashamed of them.
I know. I was agreeing with you that Ioannes is very un-christlike.
Right.
Phbltttt.
