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

This from Cracked is pretty funny: The 5 Most Badass Presidents of All-Time

Most Badass Quote:
After another tough battle where Washington was miraculously not wounded, he wrote a letter to his brother detailing his experiences. He described being surrounded by bullets and death and concluded by saying "I heard the bullets whistle and, believe me, there is something charming to the sound of bullets." When he caught news of this, King George III reportedly remarked that Washington's attitude would change if he'd heard a few more. But King George III didn't win the war, so fuck him.

Kimya Dawson's "Alphabutt" -- weird, jangly, hilarious awesome music for kids

Anti-folk icon Kimya Dawson's latest album is Alphabutt, a collection of hilarious, catchy, scatological kids' music that's sure to delight parents who are weary of treacly children's songs. If your kids are going to sing a song over an over again, isn't it better if the song goes, "A is for Apple, B is for Butt, C is for Cat-butt, D is for Doo-Doo, E is for Elephant-butt, F is for Fart, G is for Gorilla-fart, H is for Hairy Gorilla-fart"?

Happy Birthday Lisah!

It did involve proposing at a restaurant, though. He got down on one knee and was half way though his proposal someone we didn't know yelled "just say yes! the Gators are about to score".

I hope the ring had a stone big enough to let her take advantage of the No Jury Would Convict Me Effect and give the mouthy Gators Fan a lasting impression?

Oh, I know! I saw him this morning and about fell over into a puddle. I'd love to have a Bernese, but Lewis won't let me get another dog. Especially not one over a hundred pounds.

Can't say as I blame him... three dogs and the petite one is fifty pounds.

Our proposal story was fun, I proposed to Tom during a pub quiz on Sadie Hawkins/Leap Day. It was the pub that he had first kissed me. It was an awful lot of fun.

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

Did you win at pub quiz though?
