Let me guess. We're in a hurry.

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.

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 just found out that Clarence Thomas is going to be on the Rush Limbaugh show.

That's really not okay, right? Seriously?

Fucking Posse Foundation

Right?

Fuck them and the posse they rode in with!

The Annual MacArthur Grant Announcement = your chance to play Sour Grapes.

It's kind of fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sad but true. Or I could revel in the innovation that goes on around me.... I bet Geoff Canada has one, too. Edit: Ah ha -- he doesn't. OK, I guess I can stop being organizationally jealous now.

Always Anti-fascist!

Well, it means the dummy has switched ventriloquists from Scalia to "comedian" Rush Limbaugh.(AS can finally drink a glass of water now...this is major.) Next year, he might follow a dog act. Oh, you mean *ethically*? Yeah, kind of sleazy, but nothing new for: Clarence Thomas, Worst Jurist In The Wooorld!(/KO likes carrots) ETA: I actually know a genius grant recipient...Greg Smith, for his work on the "On A Roll" radio program. He deserved it.

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

That's really not okay, right? Seriously?

I would say that's not OK. But on the 1-10 outrage scale I'd probably give it a 3.

Somehow, Petraeus appearing only on Fox was more wrong to me. Not sure why....

Military folk aren't supposed to campaign...I think it's illegal. Soltz can only go on "Countdown"(which likes carrots) because he's not active-duty military.And Fox might as well be KRNC.

Maybe it's sort of like scientology, where people now get that the Republican Religion (which I've realized is completely seperate from being politically conservative) is BATSHIT CRAZY.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Spell my fucking name right. I mean, it's right THERE.

I dunno, I'd say the misspelling speaks volumes about his attention to detail.

Not okay, but then again I still think it was kind of not okay for Clinton to go on Leno and play the saxaphone. Sometimes I wish we still lived in a shame culture, or at least not an utterly shameless one.

Wasn't Clinton campaigning at the time and not a sitting president?

Also, it was the Arsenio Hall show. Does that make it better or worse?
