I'm attempting to bake my first ever apple pie tonight. Between that and living in a red state, I guess that makes me a Real American.
Maybe I've always been here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This is why I loved last night's Daily Show so much. Enough, for chrissakes. There really was about six weeks where "real America" liked us in NYC, huh?

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
It just disturbs me that they love to parade around with images of the burning towers as a propaganda piece, but they hate the people that died in and around them so much.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
You could be from New Orleans. No one liked us, even when we had a tragedy.
(That's supposed to come off as black humor, so I hope it's not crossing the line into poor taste.)

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

Well, a lot of red state folk liked to take trips to NYC to visit the towers and see Cats....
(Not Rent, though.)

God, it's true. You did it to yourselves! At least we had swarthy arabs to blame.

They haven't used these images as much lately. Maybe they figure the Real Americans moved to Nebraska over the past 7 years.
The occultists are "weaving lazy 8's around McCain's mind to make him look confused and like an idiot". Bree K. said we need to break these curses off of him that are being sent from Kenya.
Kenya? Please. We really don't need to import our occultists—there's plenty here in the un-real America.

“Not dead yet!”

That's cuz y'all invited it with all that Sodom and Gomorrah, voodoo, drinking and jazz stuff.
(Also black humor, in case it's not completely clear.)

I know. We were too busy whoring and drinking and having some gay people in the city.
One of the bad things about living in Houston after Katrina was the amount of bile directed at refugees in the city. It did not do good things for my faith in humanity.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
So far, that's horrible disasters in two cities almost exactly two years after I leave. DC might want to watch out in the summer of 2012.
