That's big news, Hecubus. In other, smaller good news, some petition signers have thanked me for apologizing and for not adding to the flow of crap on the internet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
All cynicism aside, I think a plot against the president is always newsworthy.
A serious one, yeah. And that does sound serious.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
They're not Muslims, so they don't exist. Good God-fearing conservatives don't do things like this. Ergo, there's no story.
I really think the mainstream media is afraid to embarrass the Republican party. Why has there been so little coverage in the national media of Republican's efforts in many states to disenfranchise voters who tend to lean Democratic? Why has there been so little coverage of how climate change is mostly responsible for all this weird weather we've had over the last few years?
I think these things should always be newsworthy too.

Not like three guys and a slingshot, that's for sure.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Ugh, you guys, I could not be more annoyed for a dumb reason right now. My office and the agency nationwide is doing a canned food drive. We were competing by floor for donuts. Because of the promise of donuts, I and my broken arm brought in 150 lbs of canned goods. This led to an arms race and our office brought in a ludicrous amount of canned goods in total, way more than offices twice our size. So the responsible parties decided, today, everyone gets donuts, they decided to do it today, when almost my entire division, including me, is out of the office. Thanks!!!

Yeah, I agree. It's kind of shocking that the NYT hasn't reported on it yet. They *murdered* two people who found out about the plot!
Some of you may remember when my close friend and Emmett's godmother, Karen, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Today is her five year all clean.
Aw, that's great news!

That is some kind of bullshit, right there. (Wait, is this my tax dollars paying for uneaten government bureaucrat donuts??)
