this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Think about "Santa Claus is Coming to Town."

Hang your stockings and say your prayers
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

That's a horror movie.

Actually, it reminds me of David Sedaris's "Six to Eight Black Men."

He can even take his son with him into the shower, where the boy cannot help but notice that Dad has a penis, just like his, only bigger.

You could run this as a personal ad in San Francisco and have a new Daddy before dinner.

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

Dan Savage says he's been noticing his boyfriend's big penis for years and it hasn't made him any less gay.

Hey, has anyone traveled recently with wrapped gifts? I have a totebag full and I wondered if they'll just put them through the machine and be fine, or if they'll want to unwrap anything, which would suck.

In Canada, it's not okay. But you konw it depends on the day and the security guard. I'm betting it's the same in the US.

From the TSA:

Do not wrap gifts. During the screening process, it is sometimes necessary to closely inspect items. Wrapped gifts delay the screening process and will not be re-wrapped by security officers.

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

He can teach him to pound a square wooden peg into a square hole in a pegboard.

But don't ever, ever teach him to pound a square peg into a round hole.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sue is right-- presents should be unwrapped, or they might well do it for you.

Umm.... I think Dobson's article on advice for raising straight boys just made me more gay.

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

Umm.... I think Dobson's article on advice for raising straight boys just made me more gay.

Admit it Sean -- you were reading it while eating a veggie-burger, weren't you? WEREN'T YOU???

Ann, that's a ferret.

Things like the WND and Dobson articles are great humor. Or they would be, if (1) they weren't meant in all seriousness, and (2) read by too many people that take them seriously.

Well, S is vegetarian herself, and who knows what kind of non-meat products she slips me on a regular basis.
