Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
How about, "I watch my porn, you watch yours and I'll meet you in the bedroom in twenty minutes."

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Thanks for all of the ~ma for my mom, everyone. She's still weighing the pros and cons.
Sean, do NOT apologize for bothering us. You are not a bother, and we want to know when you're feeling low. We love you, and that's not going to change.

There is a context for her comment.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Is it Palestinian or Lebanese descent? I know it's from somewhere in the vicinity.

Lebanese I think, but the point stands. It was a shitty thing to say, but its not from nothin'. AMAZING how that is being utterly ommitted from the discussion.

I'd have to double check, but her ancestry is non-Jewish and from that region.

Yeah, I've been really surprised it's not being reported at all in the coverage, and it's an important detail.

Yeah, I was raised in a world where elderly people get a little slack for bigoted or sexist remarks.
Doesn't mean its alright. Doesn't mean she should have kept her job. But maybe America's collective Mom could sit us down and say, "Sometimes older people have had terrible personal experiences or were raised a certain way and have prejudices they've had for a really long time and its hard for them to change. That doesn't mean that ______ is an evil person and doesn't do lots of nice things like ______. I know its hard, but sometimes that's the way it is."
