Yeah, it's not on the screen itself, and the cracks curve away from the screen, so I'm hoping I can tolerate it for two months until I qualify for another subsidized iPhone (and hopefully the new models will be out by then).

Our records indicate that you will be eligible for an upgrade at a discounted price on 05/29/2010

I won't generalize about all men, but ime most guys who want to talk about men's studies are crybaby sore loser knobwanks whose fathers probably have a good reason to be tough on them, what with the whole knobwank thing. There are guys who research masculinity and whatever, but they're usually not the ones going all Orly Taitz.

I love erika.

Frankly, the menz who generally clamor for "Men's Studies" classes are coming at it from the same attitude espoused by people who say "BLACK History month? When do we get WHITE History month???", deliberately ignoring the fact that, in America at least, every DAY is White History Day.

Well, the overwhelming majority of higher academia is built on a foundation of Men's Studies, and is suffused with it. The idea that there even HAS to be Women's Studies is BECAUSE everything else is already de facto Men's Studies.

Jesus. Check your goddamn privilege and shut the fuck up and just take American History 101.

"February...shortest damn month of the year.' (/Spike Lee) One of my favorite Election Night/ Inaugural memories was watching Spike Lee(of whom I am the unlikeliest, outside demographic, fan ever) and being like "What is that unaccustomed expression on Spike Lee's face?" and realizing that Spike Lee was *beaming*. I never thought I'd ever see that. Ever. Yeah, absolutely, not talking about anyone I know from b.org and I absolutely believe that studying masculinity is a legitimate pursuit. But there are men making everything ALL about them and dressing it up in feminist colors. ARGH...She-Hulk SMASH.

The adventures of Spotted Dog and The Enforcer!

If there was a way to COMM this, I would. Just. Awesome.

I forgot to work into the comic how their super-power is their ability to produce ungodly noxious gas in astonishing amounts. Usually right after they've come in the same room The Bipeds are in.

FTR, if you can't wait, you can get *just* the iPhone for $200. Which is what I had to do a few weeks ago.

Sean, that sucks! I have a crack in my iPhone, too. How do you find out when you are eligible for a subsidized new one?

OK, annoying as shit.

Called my temp agency to check-in. My agent has left. Not shocking. The new one wants me to come in and meet her, not shocking either.

Then she tells me she can't find my old scores and wants me to test. I've been working for them for YEARS. I promise you, I know Word and type 60+. What was supposed to be swing-by-and-meet will be half a fucking day.

Oh, and what's that you say? Come early to fill out forms? Bring two IDs? Now, I KNOW you have my IDs on record because I have tax forms from you right here. No, I'm not fucking doing that. Kiss my ass.

Lazy bee-yotch can't be bothered to pull my file, I think that much is clear. I'm really really really tired of being treated shitty work-wise.

It's close enough, I'll just save my nonexistent pennies until I can get a subsidized phone.

Go to the AT&T website, and on the main page that lists your phone and plan, there will be a link to upgrade your phone. The link will tell you if you're eligible yet.

Loved Spotted Justice and The Enforcer! (also? Fat Cat was really cute in that picture)

In regard to Men's Studies ... everyone pointing out that feminism has often pointed out that patriarchy is bad for everyone. But these kinds of things are as erica has said (or, less profanely, they're outraged that they aren't the center of the universe any more and they want their toys back). There were news reports a while ago that women now make up more than half the students enrolled in college - which is news because until after my generation a common attitude was that girl's didn't need to go to college.
