Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ma was drunk because a) the bride was late and b) the groom was an ass. Given half the bridesmaids intended to raise an objection during the ceremony and the marriage didn't last the year, it was really no big thing.
I really truly can't see properly. I haven't been this vision compromised since I was taking daily morphine. This is what 2+ weeks of sleep dep feels like, huh?
Sorry to hear about all the insomnia going around today.
I am going to save that Steve Burns podcast for later, when I have earned a break from grading. When it comes to Blues Clues, I am Team Steve all the way!
Novelty dates come at a premium! I briefly considered 2/14 since it was a Saturday in 2009, but that woulda been hella expensive.
And the reverse is at least part of why my friend got married on 9/11/10.
The new Nobel Prize winner in physics is the first to win both a Nobel and an Ig-Nobel.
Are clowns evil? Or is that just a stereotype?
Angry clowns protest over Alton Towers horror maze
Placard-waving clowns chained themselves to the gates of Alton Towers today in protest at a new horror maze which they claim ‘demonises’ the circus performers.
The Carnival of Screams attraction has been launched to coincide with Halloween and promises a circus ‘that nightmares are made of’.
Thrillseekers will have to evade the clutches of killer clowns as part of the adrenaline-fuelled ride.
But a host of clowns have taken offence at the ride and yesterday protested claiming they were being portrayed in a negative light.
They barracked bosses at Alton Towers today, protesting outside the theme park’s entrance with posters and placards.
The circus performers – armed with custard pies – chained themselves to the main gates, claiming the ride would do to their reputation what Jaws did for sharks.
One protestor, Fips the Clown, said: ”We are protesting because we feel the Alton Towers Resort’s new horror maze, Carnival of Screams, is an unfair depiction of clowns.
”It only serves to reinforce stereotypes of clowns as evil.
”I can’t believe this – it has taken us years to get over Stephen King’s ‘IT’ and now this just adds to further damage the reputation of clowns worldwide.
”This will do for clowns what Jaws did for sharks.”
Reminds me of when Bobcat Goldthwait's Shakes the Clown came out. He found himself on a morning talk show debating a clown. He told the host, "You're hosting a debate between clowns. Did you lose a bet?"
Dignity at weddings? Ummmm.
My mom was a guest at a wedding where the mother of the groom got totally wasted and puked on the dance floor. Also, a early-20s-aged female guest walked out of the bathroom with the top of her dress pulled down to her waist. She, too, was totally wasted.
I bet that's one hell of a wedding video.
”This will do for clowns what Jaws did for sharks.”
Well, the sharks seem pretty okay with that. What's your issue?

Free publicity that makes you seem totally badass? WOOT!
