The arrogant religious conservatives who support the president are finding their voices gradually overridden by the more moderate — and larger — populace, who are taking courage both from a sense of inner strength and a recognition that, the longer they remain silent, the less they will have to lose.
With increasing belligerence the president’s aggression […]

Nick’s Vanishing Marbles.
Published by January 16th, 2007 in You Must be F***ing Kidding and Advertising Matters. 25 CommentsComment threads have an interesting life of their own; for instance last month I posted on Nickelodeon’s forthcoming Naked Brothers Band, and in the comments was passed along a link to this YouTube video. It’s a promo piece for the show and includes an interesting turn of events. Below is a still image from that […]
Alfonso Cuarón can do no wrong.
Well, all right, he probably can and surely will — but in the meantime, I have to say his movies do not suck. First he got himself seriously noticed with the exploits of two good friends and a very wlling lady in Y tu Mamá También; after that he shifted […]
Arright, danjis, so here’s the slap.
Look, I geddit that you surf n slosh lookin for Cock and cock and other teeny young salty stiff whatevers from which to have a taste. Who among us doesn’t like a swell of warm frothy whatever? I don’t care; wrinklies all cost about the same and pay about the […]
I’m writing this letter to you in hopes that you can help, because it certainly doesn’t seem like anyone else can.
When you were president, I didn’t agree with some of the things you did; but I never felt the kind of genuine concern for the future of this nation that I do now, with […]
This is Not What We Mean by “Church Barbecue”
Published by January 11th, 2007 in You Must be F***ing Kidding, Reality Trumps 'God' and O, Pine With Me. 1 CommentI’m known to lump Christanity and Islam into the same general category, a sort of “pox on both their houses” approach to religion that usually overlooks Hinduism, Buddhism and Judaism — mostly because the first two religions are foremost in my mind. Christanity is, after all, the dominant cult in the US, and Islam was […]

Il Duce is planning to plead tell us all that his “surge” of 20,000 troops in Iraq will help stabilize the nation so we’ll be able to hand off control to Iraqi forces.
Apart from the fact that he’s dead wrong about the numbers — off by an order of magnitude — we’ve seen this song […]
Maybe Rick Santorum was right after all. Maybe by redefining marriage as open to lesbian and gay couples, man-on-dog sex really is inevitable. And maybe these two are just victims of The Homosexual Agenda…
As long as they’re practicing safe sex, I guess it’s okay.

Protecting Marriage by Preventing Divorce
Published by January 8th, 2007 in General Foolishness. 0 CommentsVia Pam. The Family Foundation of Virginia — you know what they stand for, since the word “family” is in their name, which is a euphemism for “exclusionistic, hatemongering right-wing fantatics” — are seeking to put an end to no-fault divorce, making it much, much harder for marriages to be terminated by either party.
What the […]
Actually this isn’t about the FSM; it’s about Momofuku Ando.
Who, you ask? Who’s that?
The inventor of ramen noodles, I answer.
Oh, you say, nonplussed. Well, what about him?
He’s dead, I tell you. He was 96.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers, unused seasoning packets be sent.
His body will be dehydrated, broken in half, immersed in […]
