Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I'm now in a very bad place.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Can someone please explain to me WTF is up with the Bolton nomination? A cloture vote was called for and voted down just a little bit ago -- i.e., he got filibustered, debate continues, and he's not getting his up-and-down vote yet. But Voinovich, who apparently had given a passionate speech about Bolton's awfulness, voted for cloture and Bill Frist voted against. Wha-huh?

(eta: I think the vote against cloture was mostly Dems, and Frist. Guh??)

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I have to admit, I need that, if I'm to step up the "no, you don't want my porn" plate.

I never thought I would regret not saving the URL of the werewolf slash online comic book that I ran across once while looking for sites about the Fox TV show. But if I remember correctly it was in similar manga-like style, only with claws and fangs and less clothing. Would have been great for your purposes if you could hold the laughter in.

Have you considered Dave Quinn/Tim Vigil comics? Disturbing porny images with lots of fighting and more bloodshed than Kill Bill.

2. “Starving” people in Africa spend most of their aid money on big-screen TVs, pole-dances, and perfectly good food that they just throw away
3. There is actually no “Norway”—it was invented in the mid-’40s as part of an MGM publicity stunt
4. Studies show there’s more feces on your doorknob than there is in an actual pile of feces

Ah, I misunderstood and thought you meant co-workers at the other job. You're right about the Tim Vigil artwork not being especially off-putting to folks looking to learn how to do some of the damage from the comics.

N'Sync manga porn is clearly the way to go.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Heh. The 826NYC Superhero Supply Store has a softball team.

*********

BULLETS SHOOT DOWN SUPPLIERS, 25 - 2 Can of Evil Opened in First Inning
The DC Comics bullets crushed the Superhero Supply Company softball team in Central Park's North Meadow last Thursday, scoring 25 runs before the game was called in the fifth inning on account of darkness and also so that the teams could eat quesadillas.

826NYC Education Director Joan Kim and Volunteer Michael Coviello scored the only two runs for the Superhero Suppliers.

Joel Press, manager of the Bullets, revealed that their team had opened a Can of Evil purchased from the BSSCo. While the use of Canned Evil is not specifically forbidden by the League of Superpowered Athletes, it is considered extremely gauche and congressional hearings on the matter have been scheduled.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I must send this to everyone in my family who sends me stupid emails.

And the subject header should be, PLZ FWD IF YOU LOVE AMERICA
