Don't wank where you eat.
Ewwww. Not an image I needed.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, I just had the craziest meeting. Well, not "just" -- it was my noon meeting, not my 1pm. But still. The Big Boss looked at a chart I've prepared -- prepared last fall -- and was like, WTF? I was all, Um... It's this? Because that's what I thought it was supposed to be? She was like, This is bananas. It should be something completely different. Ummmmm.
Christ. And I just heard my boss shrieking about it from half-way across the office, so I really hope Big Boss wasn't in her office with the door open!
Oy fucking vey.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Some anecdotes about Karl Rove that are interesting and illuminating: [link]
Two me, the second one was particularly illustrative.
Dick Armey quote:
...can you imagine refusing a simple request like that with an insult? It's stupid. From the point of view of your own self-interest, it's stupid.

ALSO! Do I have to respond to an email that I just got (unrelated to earlier meetings) that said, "I was just wondering when you'd get that stuff to me!" The last email I sent her said "I will get that to you by COB on Wednesday." What the fuck time does she think COB is?
I need that massage.

Always Anti-fascist!
My favorite Karl Rove story was just on Countdown(that likes carrots) Apparently, back in the day, KR asked Margaret Stallings, now Sec. of Ed. for a date. She said no. The reporter asked her why and she said: "Have you ever met Karl Rove?"

Thrive to spite them
from tommyrot's link, Amey quotes Bush as saying:
'It would probably wind up on eBay,'"
Which is about the same thing he said when he was giving out some kind of token to the families of dead soldiers. Except I think he told the families "Don't sell this on eBay." The man is an insensitive prick.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
Ha. I am especially amused because my mentor is now dating a man that she went to law school with, who asked her out back in 1966 and she turned down.

well, you expect of others the same behavior that you have. He would do it, so he expects others to do so.

Actually, it was Rove who said that. (After Bush refused to continue the signing thing.)
