The last hurrahs of a dying breed of socialists. I can’t wait til November!
If you squeeze in just the right spot, you’ll avoid breaking the hyoid bone as you’re choking it out…
If America is gonna be run by conservatives until the end of time, then I’m getting the fvck out. I can’t even contemplate going back to a country controlled by conservatives already. It’s just. too. horrifying.
That being said, I didn’t even bother watching the stupid SOTU address. I didn’t really wanna listen to Obama talk about how being wishy-washy f’ed up his first year.
I’ve got extra room, Rando. Come on up.
I heard they’ve tightened immigration laws up there. Something about too many dirty Americans swimming across the border to steal all the jobs.
Well, yes, but only in the summer when the snow has melted into a river. The rest of the time you have to use snow shoes or ride a polar bear across the border.
I thought Sarah Palin killed off all the Polar Bears for that said reason?
Caribou, DU, we ride Caribou.
I’ll sneak you and your family in. I’m good at human trafficking. Oh, and the Sears up here is much nicer to their employees.
Heck, he’ll get reasonably priced health care; that’s a big plus right there. *sulks and goes back to figuring out the FSA reimbursement*
Nucky, how are you going to fit ALL of us in your house?!!
I have a king sized bed
It doesn’t matter that the country isn’t run by conservatives when your state is. Our lovely governor just cut 300 million dollars from education despite the fact that the state is in the black and has a surplus. What did he say to the school after he cut that money? Something along the lines of not tolerating failing schools and he’d like to make it so that no child can leave the third grade if they can’t read on grade level.
Yes, cutting the budget will fix a failing school. Brilliant! Why didn’t I think of that? *headdesk*
I don’t know, DU, but it is obvious to me now why you are not governor.
I can’t believe that you didn’t realize that taking a person’s paycheque/funding away would cause them to work harder. I am so never voting for you again.
Ohhh.
They will work harder when schools are forced to lay off teachers and class sizes increase. What’s a governor to do when his state has high unemployment? I know, put more people (like me) out of work! Yay!
So sorry, Jane, I didn’t use the right word. I KNOW teachers work hard. I just reread my post and realized that it so did not state what I was trying to say (it was a lame joke anyway). I’m having a brain fart and can’t think of the way to properly word that.
No, I got it! I was just being serious to your funny. Bad combo, huh?
Maybe a little….heehee. I reread what I wrote and realized that it might have come off sounding like I thought education was failing because teachers don’t work hard.
Maybe I should just stick to flashing the boobs, huh?
No no! An Asgardian wench never allows mistakes to keep her from trying again…and flashing in the process!
*flashes boobies at VG* You’re right, I must live up to my new title with dignity!
Must be something wrong with me. The entire subthread made perfect sense.
Our governor (Crist, R-FLA) just cut corporate taxes. His explanation boiled down to “trickle down economics” *headdesk* “If we cut taxes for the corporations, they’ll create more jobs maybe! Well, they MIGHT!”
At least they won’t bail from the state like they did in California. You want to see your economy go down the toilet? Watch the major corporations leave the state because taxes were raised.
I hear that.
Wow, sounds like a lose/lose situation.
Need money for budget.
Tax the corporations more! No, then they’ll leave and we’ll have more money.
Tax the corporations less! Maybe then they’ll hire more! Doubtful, they’ll probably just ship more jobs overseas.
Yeah, it’s pretty much like that. When I worked for Martin Marietta and they merged with Lockheed, they decided (because of state taxes in California) to relocate the corporate offices to Maryland. As soon as the merger was final 30,000 people were laid off in California while the top 9 executives for both companies all walked away with millions of dollars each. And mind you, this was back in the early 90′s when that type of bonus was almost unheard of. Norm Augustine, the then CEO of Lockheed retired with a cool $9m alone.
Maryland?
Yep, Bethesda to be exact.. from what I heard, it was cheaper than keeping the corporate offices in California.
NOW THAT is sad. If it’s cheaper in MD, you’re WAY TOO taxed.
*adds Norm to the list of people nailed to the wall when the revolution comes*
Apparently, you can’t say it in your name either.
Why are you molesting penguins?
Well, everyone had this “So and so THE something” going on and I felt left out.
Well, now I feel left out!
Charro, I christen thee the Sexy Mermaid Queen. *borrows Thor’s mighty hammer and annoints Charro*
DU, I annoint the the, um, the……..Naked Shrubbery……um….you finish it. *annoints DU with borrowed Thor’s mighty hammer. Returns hammer to Brak hoping he didn’t notice*
Note: I don’t know if these will be official, ladies.
Sweet.
You know, conservatives wonder why we liberals don’t trust big business. This is a reason why.
Even some conservatives would think this was excessive – at least I did! My first thought at the time was, “If the didn’t take the millions of dollars in bonuses, those 30,000 would probably still have a job for a bit longer.” Some conservatives balk at this level of greed.
Yeah. *hmphs snootily at the suggestion that all conservatives are Michael-Douglas-in-Wall-Street levels of greedy*
Obviously, I meant to say “less money”.
I remember when Reagan first talked about ‘trickle down’ economics. My dad laughed and said, ‘The only thing that trickles down is piss.’
Dude!! Really? I don’t wanna live in a “liberal” country or else I’d move to Europe.
And don’t you think since you live in a democracy, that since the country’s Gubberment will probably swing back “conservatives” in 2010, that’s what the majority of the people want. The Republicans took 8 years to fvck up enough to piss off the people, Dems it only took 3 years.
I don’t see it that way. I see most americans as lazy whiners with the attention span of a gnat. They hopped on a bandwagon that seemed “cool” to them and expected Obama to come riding in on a magic unicorn spreading rainbows and leprechaun gold and when that didn’t happen they got all squirmy and said, “well I’m just going to vote for someone else now.”
you don’t even know what socialism is, so settle down bevis.
Phbbbbbbblt!
Phbbbbbbt!
Oh, and…yes, because theocracies tend to be soooo stable and productive, right?
Well, he does have a point, Rome did have a state religion. Maybe we should all go back to worshiping Jupiter and his family.
Phbbbbbbblt!
Oh, and also, the Constitution prevents a “State Religion”. And you can’t teach religion in schools.
Phblblblbt!
Yes… it is the from the church.. as in fleeing from the persecution of the church. Way to repeat history assbag…. oh… and….
Phbbbbbbbblt!
Phbbbbbbblt! And coming from a Christian (a real one, unlike you), a theocracy is the last thing we need. And Jesus doesn’t like you.
Phbbbbbbbblt!
Phbbbbbbblt!
Phblblblbt!
Jesus really would like you to stop doing things in his name. It’s embarrassing the fvck out of him in front of the apostles.
Jesus could turn water into whine…..Ioannes can turn words into whine…
Dangit, my typo completely ruined my pun. *kicks at dirt*
The advantage of dyslexic internet buddies — I read it the way you meant it.
It’s okay, diss, I got it. It was still funny.
Was it Rhine whine?
Oooooh, now I want some Schmit Sohne auslese. Maybe some crab salad and colby jack cheese.
*snerks*
Define irony: A moronic troll actually trying to insult someone for being functionally retarded, all the while not being able to handle the concept of the “reply” button.
Sudefinition: insulting someone who had a friggin’ PhD when it’s obviously incapable of passing a college entrance exam.
And since we’ve seen the “technological prowess”… you know the GRE is out of the question…
Yes, I do believe you must be capable of filling in the little bubbles.
Oh, no the GRE now is on the computer only… you actually have to know how to use one! And the only way to get it on paper is prove you have a physical handicap that prevents you from taking it on the computer….
Perhaps cgray can use Funtionally Retarded as his exemption?
Hee hee. Now I understand.
Actually, most international students still have testing centers for the paper exam, Max. Additionally, domestic students can OPT to do it that way without proving the handicap, but it’s SO limited in the number of times offered that most students choose the computer exam to make deadlines
Yeah, it’s as if there’s only one room in each testing facility they can use for it.. and if the paper the test is printed on isn’t used within a certain time period it turns into dust…. At least, that’s how they act about it.
Pretty much spot-on correct! Look at it this way: you’re name will never be too long to actually fill in the bubbles anymore! Trust me, I’ve worked with some foreign students for whom this was a problem. Particularly Indian studens. WOW!
*facepalm* your. Sigh.
My current roommate can’t take the computer test because his eyes can’t handle the low refresh rate the state uses on the monitors they test with. His vision literally blurs and he can’t read the questions. However, there’s only one testing facility in the state and it’s a pretty penny to take the test. He wasted the fee once trying to take the computer version and the waiting list to take the written test is so long, he could have completed his doctorate before his name will show up on the register.
Has he tried your local university’s Disability Resource Center (or the equivalent, if it’s not titled that where you are)? They can help fast-track paper-based entrance exams for vision-impaired students. In fact, they are compelled to do so. Definitely send him that direction.
All this computerized GRE talk is making me feel old again, Max. I remember when I took the math subject test there was a poor guy who was taking the math subject test because there was no test for computer science. We felt soooooo sorry for him. (Computer science was a new degree for most colleges ‘back in them days.’)
Did you have to take it during the day so you’d have sunlight to see by? j/k, mabsba, j/k Computer science was a new degree less than 30 years ago! Sooooo… do the math….. lol!
GRE? I don’t think it could manage a GED.
Watch that generalization, DU. Some really bright, but bored, people bypass high school and simply test out before starting at university and then going on to complete advanced degrees.
And some people are less than mouth-breathers. What’s your point?
Yeah, I’m almost certain cgray is not one of those bright, bored people. Given his hatred of “libruls” and “socialist colleges” I doubt he opted to start the higher education earlier…
So where does that leave you, as you’re clearly not a super-bright societal contributor?
I’m going to leave your comment to stand. Because clearly I’ve interacted with you before, and I oh-so-richly deserve your baseless personal attack filled with scorn and derision.
I think froo and many of the others find your ambiguous-ness, irritating and abrasive. On this forum if your views are hidden its usually because there’s something to hide.
You’d probably be more accepted if your views were transparent instead of heavily veiled in cynicism, sarcasm, and farce.
No one’s asking you to throw your beliefs in our faces, I think what most folks want is to be sure what they actually
are debating with you. It’s ambigious, and lots of trolls do that here on purpose, which makes it irritating and abrasive.
So either you’re new here and didn’t know that, or you knew and do it anyway. I’m guessing the former more than the latter.
And I wasn’t suggesting anything other than, it’s hard to tell when you’re being serious, and where your views actually do lie due to all the cynicism etc.
*in Butter’s voice*
Do you know what I am saying?
Actually, I find It’s So Obvious kind of amusing (in an “I get his/her odd sense of humor”sense, not in the “I’m laughing AT him/her” sense.) But I’m a little weird, too.
And I’m pretty sure that none of us like being told to “watch our generalizations” or “don’t trivialize this or that”. If we generalize or trivialize we get called on it. But telling us not to do it is not your job, ISO.
Apparently it’s not. I’m amused, cretins.
Uuuuuuuuuuuh, WTF?
I think you missed DU’s point.
My point was idiot savant. You never know!
“Know” probably not “Firmly convinced beyond a shadow of doubt”? We’ve got that though.
I get that too. lol!
Incidentally, did you read about the death of Kim Peek, the actual person who inspired the character Dustin Hoffman played in “Rain Man?” Very intriguing story. Link.
Indeed, Kim was was one helluva guy.
I dropped out of high school at 16 and started college, got my GED at 17 and continued college until I started drinking like it was my job.
I fart in your general direction. Oh and…
Phbbbbttt.
I was thinking more along the lines of, “NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!”
Oh, and to the OP, “Phbbbbttt..”
Nobody cares what you think.
Something Ivan and I wholeheartedly agree on!
*sigh* I keep misreading the title in the “recents” as “State of the Caption”…
I need some sleep, preferrably not interrupted by kiddoes!
*stamps around wearing his one-man-band suit*
I’m sorry… what did you say!?
*slaps Max for his insolence*
*hands Max an ice pack* Dang dude. That’s gonna leave a mark.
It’s not love unless it leaves a mark. It’s ok froo, I won’t tell the Mr.
He’s got his own marks to tend to.
Thank goodness… jealous spouses are always a tough obstacle to hurdle.
Psst. Froo, I think that’s kind of like spraying your kitty with catnip spray to make it behave.
Indeed, froo, has piqued my interest.
You think that’s bad? Frou thinks she can make me stop saying alot by smacking me every time I say it! I think I’ve doubled my alot use since this has started.
Using up your alotment?
*needs sleep too*
No one cares what you think.
Paul, no where in scriptures is the idea of a Christian revolution. In fact, right the opposite. You need to sit and think on that a while.
He had a think about things once, turned out it was only a fart.
The more he speaks, the more I’m convinced that if his brains were dynamite, he wouldn’t be able to blow his nose.
Really. Thomas Jefferson rewrote the Bible to suit him, for FSM’s sake! George Washington and a bunch of his associates were Masons, who the real religio-wackos insist are not Christians at all. Most of the Founders were something called “deist,” which is kind of like a secular humanist who harbors a belief in God. Hardly the sort of “old time religion” people like Pat Robertson are trying to sell people.
Nobody cares what you think.
In fact, Pfffffbbbbbbbbbbbth!
No one cares what you think but we are extremely amused by your continued ineptness in using the reply button.
Phbbbbbblt!
That was some funny-@ss stuff…check out some more from us!
