Late to the worry party, but fingers crossed for Kat!

In late breaking non-news, Scott Adams continues to be a dillhole.

If you look at that excerpt in the context of his entire blog post, then you'll discover that you're completely right. I was suspicious that it might have been taken out of context or satire, but nope.

Smonster, I followed your link and you're living in a magnetic bottle cap?

ND, it looks like you won't be able to escape Sponge Bob even when you get off the boat (at least in Borneo): [link]

Now tagless for your comfort.

Yup. Didn't think it was possible.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

What is it with his late-onset crazy? Remember when he had hysterical muteness for several years? I think his brain has gone awry.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Scott Adams, ugh. The whole rage-inducing presumption that somehow, society is all women's fault (despite millennia of legal non-personhood in cultures ruled by men, under laws written by men and enforced by men, our cooters are just that powerful--they're culture-building ninjas!) and the freaking creepy evo-psych it's-only-natural bullshit puts me into such a cold fury that I lose all my cuss-words and become Katharine Hepburn perched at the stern of the African Queen, shining with icy contempt: "Nature, Mister Allnutt, is what we are meant to rise above."

I suppose it's sad when you wonder if the best possibility is some sort of brain injury.
