Me too, only 2 degrees, BOTH signed by Rayguns alas … but even back in the day when I was getting a really top-quality education there, the place was infested by whining rich kids whose entire colloquy with any professor consisted of the sentence, “Do I have to read ALL the books on the list to get a B?” This Elena makes the sorority girls I used to know look like Mother Teresa. Also, this is the first time I’ve heard of this “Entitlement Generation” since all the students that age I know are already being crushed under the weight of usurious loans from corporate thieves and debating whether to take that unpaid internship or just give up and work at McDonalds.

Hope the lovely Mrs. T gets all better soon!

At the risk of sounding like a real throwback, why wasn’t a makeshift community “militia”

So many tells. “Risk”? This bozo wouldn’t recognize a real risk if it bit him on the balls. “Throwback” to what, the Neanderthals? (Sorry, no insult to real Neanderthals intended). “Makeshift” is not a positive description of anything — it reeks of what Jay Leno calls “White Trash Repairs.” And he himself puts the scare quotes around “militia.” I bet he thinks the actual National Guard is just full of losers who could be at home blogging about “risk” and eating Cheetos instead of, you know, actually trying to serve their country.

But…dead Breitfart vs all of humanity and life ending(because of the beez)…I’m conflicted but I will go with a thumbs up on destroying all life to be rid of Breitblast.

You and me both, brother.

If they would only get on his case for proposing cuts to social security.

This. Sure, I see the point of not always dragging in appearance but fer chrissake, it was a fundraiser = a schmoozefest among friends (well, putative friends, anyway). And besides, speaking as a female, I think a man’s appearance matters a lot more than some of the more humorless feminists think it does, so why aren’t they bitching about how rude it is to say anything nice about anyone?

TBogg, you have the best post titles and the best tag titles of any place on the Intertoobz. This one was a doozy! although I may need more brain bleach…. (BTW, do you have a list of tags? I can’t remember them all).

Also, danielx @ 6, “P.S. – you’re sounding cranky at the moment. Please continue.” gets my internets winner vote.

Mine too! I didn’t get out of the boat but I’d bet “the dissenter” also complained about the pampered aristocrat heroine of Brave winning out over the working-class hero of Wreck-It Ralph.

“…Official business and documents needs to be in English.”

And the Tea Party are “official” how, exactly? Maybe in Rep. King’s dreams. And as drbloor says, too easy. “Offical,” “morans,” yadda yadda…

offer him a seat in a comfy chair

Oh no! Not the comfy chair!

South Africa has enough problems already, why inflict this jerk on them?

Personally I enjoy playing golf, it’s a great game and easy to have fun even if, like me, you’re totally inept. But watching a bunch of Republicans play it, not so much.

Oh, they will be, by the time they’re 12 or 13. In a sane world, that picture would be prima facie evidence of child abuse.

What single parent with 2 kids makes $260,000 a year? My niece, a widow at 25 (husband died of cancer) with one child makes $29,000 a year and is lucky her mother-in-law babysits for free. I thought those extra zeroes were misprints.

Yes, and Dolph Lundgren may not be much of an actor (I personally don’t care), but he has two degrees in chemical engineering so “smart” would seem to be a reasonably accurate description.

I’m with you. I’ll follow, strewing rose petals like in the Mr. Peabody parade.

Thanks, you riposted to that idiot better than I could. Like I said, nobody’s being “forced” to pay for contraceptives; they could just pay a decent wage if they really wanted to. But what they really want is (a) to pay starvation wages to people that they (b) can “force” to live by their weird sexual hangups.

You don’t think employers should provide insurance that covers certain kinds of medical procedures? Why the hell not? You know, if it’s that big a deal, why doesn’t the employer just pay the employee enough of a wage that she can buy her own health insurance? Of course, from the employer’s point of view, that would mean paying a whole lot more, because the employee would have to buy at the ridiculous inflated gouging rate that individuals pay for health insurance, rather than at the reduced rate offered to group plan participants. But if the employer’s morality is so offended at the thought that someone he pays to do a certain kind of work might do something he disapproves of in her private life, shouldn’t he just suck it up and pay? Well, we know that’s not going to happen, because those oh-so-moral employers are actually just a bunch of cheap tinpot Hitlers who’d rather choke than actually pay their employees an extra cent.

To observe the spectacle of Norman Podhoretz and Midge Decter smilingly clapping along to “Brown Sugar”?

I may vomit. There’s not enough brain bleach in existence to get that image out of my head.

Thanking you and Chris Vosburg for pointing out all the crap in Sinestar’s posts. You said it all better than I could.

Isn’t the term “bitch-slap” next to Megan’s face in the dictionary? If it isn’t, it should be. I suggest she be the first to rush the shooter next time.

Good riddance — and great post title!
