I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Joey the Baby. Joeytea. Lots of goodness there.

I have a friend who didn't know his actual name until he started kindergarten. The teacher called attendance and he started looking around for his Dad. (He was a junior with a pervasive nickname)

I think this is the standard we should try and set with Joeytea.

“Not dead yet!”

Nearly canceled my hair appointment this morning because I was still sore and grumpy after yesterday's near-miss car accident. Now I'm glad I didn't. I have A Plan for my hair (mostly growing it out over the winter). But in the meantime, ends have been leveled, new bangs have been cut, color has been refreshed, and I feel vaguely human again.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Oh fuck - why haven't I heard of this until too late?

Heck, I'm only 30 minutes from San Marcos, and I've never heard of it.

I'm sure someone posted this already, but it's sort of amazing to me how easily the candidates (esp. McCain) can treat the campaign rhetoric as fodder for cheap jokes. On one hand, good for them for being adults, but on the other, man, the contempt they (and esp. McCain) have to feel for the general American public to buy that crap.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

(Teppy's post makes me wonder if she reads the last page in a mystery first.)

Nah. It's just that, like amych said, I doubted that billytea would spam Beep Me with random Animal Planet info, and my excitement got the better of me.

(I still have no idea what the rest of the post said between the first and last sentences.)

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

Hm. I feel like a shitheel, because as soon as I read the first line, I figured what it must portend, so I jumped to the last line right away.

Oh, me too!!!

(I still have no idea what the rest of the post said between the first and last sentences.)

Ditto to this.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

How does contempt enter into it? I haven't watched the video but from the bits I've seen quoted, it doesn't seem any different than the stuff they do at the National Press Club dinners and other events.
