What is even happening?

Points to Perkins' big boss.

I went to the doctor and she gave me antibiotics for my boo-boo... and wants me to stop in on Wednesday for a followup. So I've already taken my first dose. She says, incidentally, that I'm doing exactly the right thing, even though it's for such a teeny wound.

I'm glad, Theo.

GO, JZ!

I can imagine even if I were fairly fluent in Spanish, if I had an ill child, I'd like to hear about the illness and treatment in my native tongue. Aye carumba.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Conservative Christian attorney threatens to sue Tyndale Publishing over Left Behind game:

Yeah, that whole game is just so offensive, maybe it's not surprising that it's not uniformly liked by the Christian Right. (In the game, Christian soldiers have to either kill or convert everyone else....)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, that whole game is just so offensive, maybe it's not surprising that it's not uniformly liked by the Christian Right.

Seriously -- when James Dobson is being called upon to be the voice of reason against far-right Christian supremacist whackaloonery? Pretty much the textbook definition of "gone too far."

[eta: Granted, Jack Thompson also has lawsuits pending against pretty much EVERY video game on the market, but it's still nice to see that it's not just us godless liberals who find this game unbelieveably offensive.]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I was going to tell you not to be such a negative nabob, Nutty, but actually, this is the right thread for that sort of thing.
