Spike ,'Sleeper'
[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.
Oo, that'd be annoying Drew. Vent away!
I am resisting the urge right now to comment on a really fucking annoying FB post by an extended family member (one my DH's uncles-by-marriage). He's making that insipid "Oo, we better outlaw pressure cooker" comment. I find it vile and loathesome, but I also know he's one step above trolling, and my blood pressure will be happier if I just don't engage.

I've been dealing with relatives posting things about knife control for a while now. It is difficult not to engage.

"You're going to want to control my fist after it punches you in the throat, Grandma!"
...well, *my* grandma would just throw punches back, but that's just my family.
Everyone has an uncle Fucknut. ETA: The thing is, I would support, well, okay, maybe not "knife control" in the sense of everyone eating with sporks like in the Nervous Hospital, but, you know, plans to improve mental health and reduce domestic violence, which, off the top of my head, seem like decent "knife control". But people always act like they score a huge point when they say stuff like that. Like "She won't have an answer for THAT!" Seriously? I have all day to google how dumb you are...if I back off, I let you win.
And to the people on my Left: Yes, I can still watch "Justified" and be down with gun control. Because...not real...hello? But they are the same people who say The Wire Glamorizes violence, which proves they've never seen it.

Oh dang erika, now I'm going to be calling him Uncle Fucknut under my breath every time I get an email from him. Because he's *that* Uncle Fucknut, the one who forwards emails with either a) kittens, b) insipid invocations of God, c) right wing idiocy, or my favorite, d) old man rants.
The thing that's cooking my goose about the pressure cooker comment is SOMEONE JUST BOMBED BOSTON WITH A PRESSURE COOKER BOMB TWO DAYS AGO! It's too soon to be gloating that it wasn't a sniper with a high magazine rifle.

It's never too soon for Uncle Fucknut.
I know, right? That's what makes him(although I have two) such a freaking pleasure. Mine are like that about personal setbacks, as well. Like finding it hilarious that my brother ran for office and lost...it's hard to imagine him giving pastoral counseling and stuff, but yes, he's Reverend Fucknut.
