It's okay, smonster, I too have met *many* young dudes whose definition of "libertarian" appears to be "O hai. I want to buy pot at the 7-11 and convince my attractive female friend she has the right, nay, the obligation, to sell her ass." I still hate those guys. I have asked many of them if that is so great, have they considered showing up on the stroll in a Speedo? But I'm prepared to stipulate that those guys are "libertarians".

Trekistas.

Raises hand. I want the tshirt!

gah, THANK YOU!

Oh dear god....

Henry & Glenn Forever

Every once in awhile a comic book catches my eye at the comic book store that's so disturbing, so weird and so ultra bizarre that I cannot ignore it. This is the case with Henry & Glenn Forever, a comic so odd, so inventive and yet so morally wrong I could not put it down.

The premise is simple: Henry Rollins and Glenn Danzig are "close friends" and "roommates" who just happen to live in suburbia. Their neighbors just happen to be Hall & Oates who are Satanists.

Told as a series of vignette comics that hold nothing sacred, this is a great collection of odd and bizarre strangeness of such brilliance that it cannot be ignored. Each page is funnier then the one before it and you never, ever know where it's going.

Igloo Tornado is the collective of artists and madmen behind Henry & Glenn Forever. They are clearly warped in that brilliant way that good comic creators just aren't anymore.

The book not only takes the piss out of Rollins and Danzig, it mangles their self worth and celebrity beyond recognition. Fans of DIY fanzines and punk rock will love this. So will anyone looking to have a great and hearty laugh at the expense of all things Rollins or Danzig. This is some really great crazy stuff.

There should be more entertainment like this. I want a story about a young Ann Magnuson and her Nick Cave doll. (Based on the song "Nick Cave Dolls" by Bongwater, 'natch.)

Interesting Salon editorial: The lesson of Rand Paul: libertarianism is juvenile

The concluding paragraph:

And that's why the best rap on libertarians isn't that they're racist, or selfish. (Though some of them are those things, and their beliefs encourage both bad behaviors, even if accidentally.) It's that they're thoroughly out of touch with reality. It's a worldview that prospers only so long as nobody tries it, and is too unreflective and self-absorbed to realize this. In other words, it's bratty. And that's bad enough.
