Not Sure if This is Because They are Home-Schooled or Because They Live in Georgia
Either way…dumbasses make me laugh. h/t Adam
Support Gay Rights, Not Censorship
As we remember Stonewall and the beginning of the modern gay rights movement, the progressive community is understandably frustrated with the pace of our administration in bringing about real change. They have a point. Enough already with the military’s ridiculous “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. And it’s about time we legalize gay marriage. Yet after [...]
How to Survive Living at Home With Your Parents…When You are Almost Forty
If you find yourself back home with the ‘rents while looking for a place to live, towing a spouse and two kids behind you, here’s how to get through the experience with some style and grace. What makes me an expert? One time I yelled “NASCAR isn’t a sport!” Just last week I tasted Mom’s [...]
Stop Staring at my Tweets – Ongoing
On Facebook and Twitter, this is how my friends and I reacted to, in the immortal words of Winona Ryder, *all this death.* Marc: R.I.P. Farrah. Oh how I used to hold your poster with one hand… Kate: Anal cancer? Is the HPV virus a risk factor for this as well? Is this yet another [...]
Worst Pickup Line Ever: What’s in your Chipotle burrito?
Answer: Nothin’ right now, baby. You wanna be? Oh. My bad. Turns out it’s not a pickup line, but a serious call to action. Color me embarrassed…
Ralph Hughes, Brian Blair, and Mark Sanford Prove Themselves Typical
Three Republicans continue The Suck. Ralph Hughes died owing more than $60 million in back taxes. Brian Blair beat the shit out of his teenage sons on Father’s Day. Mark Sanford cheated on his wife. None of this surprises me. A rich man gets greedy and leaves his heirs to deal with the consequences? Yawn. [...]
Tampa City Councilman Charlie Miranda Wants Us to Drink Shit
Charlie Miranda has come up with a plan to turn hundreds of millions of gallons of wastewater into drinking water. All in the name of self-sufficiency. Yes, we are in the middle of a drought. But we aren’t desperate.
Renewable Fuel Standard Should Be Based On Science – Not Special Interests
Biofuels aren’t all bad. I’m not a huge fan of corn ethanol, but scientists believe it can help cut back global warming emissions from vehicles. So fine, let’s put a few of our resources and dollars behind it. But we certainly shouldn’t spend billions converting forests and grasslands to farmlands in order to grow crops [...]
For the Love of Christ, What is Up with Q105?
I grew up listening to Q105. That’s right, before I developed taste in music, I would tune in regularly to WRBQ, Morning Zoo, and Mason Dixon with his recorded laughter tracks. If you peered into my bedroom circa 1984, you’d certainly find me singing along with safe standards like The Fixx, Michael Jackson, and Cyndi [...]
Vegetarian Mommy Blues
Nothing strikes more fear in the heart of a vegetarian mother than her child saying, “Mom, I ate a hot dog today.” Oldest laid that one on me the other day and I still haven’t recovered. Their Tae Kwon Do camp had an outdoor barbecue. I explained to the counselors that my children don’t dig [...]
