Stupid question time

Does demanding payment for a sex tape make someone an amateur porn star wanna-be or just a whore wanna-be?

I am going to have to sue the US Postal Service

I'm sure my invite was lost in the mail.

[W]hen the out-of-another-era glamorous and gorgeous Christina Hendricks hosted a private dinner and Johnnie Walker pairing at the penthouse of the Chateau Marmont, it seemed a match made in Don Draper heaven.

The evening unfolded with close friends of Hendricks on the terrace—including her husband, actor Geoffrey Arend, and whiskey master Stephen Wilson—sipping Johnnie and Gingers (Johnnie Walker Red Label and ginger ale) and Blood and Sands (Johnnie Walker Red Label, orange juice, sweet vermouth and cherry syrup) and nibbling from plates of bacon-wrapped dates and teeny beef Wellingtons.

Scotch, Bacon AND Christina Hendricks how the hell did the guy have the presence of mind to take notes for the article.

Rapid response

A group of plaintiffs has already filed a lawsuit against the new gun law that  Chicago's municipal government hastily cobbled together and then unanimously passed after their previous law was deemed unconstitutional (or, as the Tribune would have it, was "gutted") by the Supreme Court.

I'm no law-talkin' guy, but seeing as how they rushed this through just days after the previous statute was struck down—in other words, without much of any legal review—I'm guessing there are a bunch of provisions in it that could potentially be struck down by the courts.

I Hope This Shitbag Lives

That's right. I hope this fucking fuckwaste of anything fruitful fucking lives, so that he can get a zillion times more abuse and terror inflicted upon him than he inflicted on an innocent girl just a few months younger than my daughter.

I fucking hope Dutch Dong Don and his merry band of prison goatse professionals open up a fourth and fifth cavity in his body. I fucking hope the workhouse wormholers go on an orgy of rib tips and painful radialfucking on his fucking orbital sockets. And I fuckingly fuck the failferret of fuck hope he lives long enough to get prison AIDS and have to spend every agonizing nanosecond of his fucking worthless life knowing that he will never enjoy an anal rupture free day for the rest of his life.

So fuck you, dirtbag. Fuck you with an improvised shiv soaked in hate and fetid fecal matter.

I'm dying a little bit inside

Not only was I turned down in my application for the customer support position at Blizzard, but I have been denied a Cataclysm beta key.  Why, why, is God tormenting me so?

If any of you neener neener me with the fact that you got a beta key and I didn't I will have to funnel your name and addresses to al-Qaeda as apostates.

4chan for the win!

So Justin Bieber decided to let his "fans" vote for which country he should tour next.
4chan got wind of it, decided North Korea was nice this time of year and well, NoKo it is.

That's about funny.
Now if he would only allow his fans to vote for the songs he sings, we could get him to sing, "I'm so ronery". That would be even funnier, you know, until they shoot him.
Yeah, Allah's headlines.

Controversial?

Try incredibly fucking unconstitutional, under both the US and Michigan constitutions:

Yeah, all of those "cues"? Those are things that would get you sued, as they damn well should, if you used them to disqualify a candidate based on membership in a minority racial group. It's just as discriminatory to use them to eliminate a member of the majority group.

h/t the blog prof who has a great point: "On second thought, it is interesting that liberals want to beat conservatives over the head with a legal shovel when it suits their purposes. But when the law is against their ideological goals, they flip it the finger. The handgun ban recently passed in Chicago comes to mind right after the Supreme Court upheld the 2nd amendment. This case of discrimination in violation of the Michigan Constitution and the equal protection clause of the US Constitution are 2 really good examples of that mentality."

Exactly.  In 2006, the Michigan state Constitution was specifically amended to eliminate the use of race in state public education.  I cannot conceive of how this would comply with that constitutional mandate.  But, hey, since this is For The Children, who gives a damn if it's illegal.  I'm sure the taxpayers will be thrilled to pay the legal defense fees for the lawsuits over this, what with the intentions being so pure and all.

The latest in racist Zionist aggression

Check out the latest Israeli warmonger endorsing attacks on Iran's peaceful nuclear program:

"If you are asking me, 'Am I willing to live with that versus living with a nuclear Iran?,' my answer is still the same: 'We cannot live with a nuclear Iran.'"

Oh, wait...

Hey come on it's not like it's murder murder

I'm sure our three readers have seen this, since we don't rely on the MFM for our news, but the actress who plays Padma Patil in the HP movies was threatened with honor killing by her father and brother because she's dating a Hindu guy.

You know, it would be nice if those who claim to be feminist actually give a shit about things like this as opposed to bitching that the Republican women who are gaining grounds are too hot.  I'd love for someone to ask Whoopi if it's okay for male family members to actually kill a woman because of who she's dating. 

I know, I know it's not surprising that there's no uproar about this.  But it should be.

There's a post titled "Why liberals should love the Second Amendment" over at...the Daily Kos.  Yes, really.

There's some lefty boilerplate in there, but it's actually pretty well-argued.

Some bikers absolutely earned that South Park episode

This one, if you're unaware.  Watched some asshat today ride his Harley up the handicap incline on a curb, then proceed to park his bike on the sidewalk and shop in the local shopping plaza.  Do note, there were pleeeeeeeeeeenty of spaces in the parking lot, and there were plenty of motorcycles in the parking lot just like everyone driving cars, but oh no, no no no no no, we've gotta be Mr. Sooperkewlrebeldouche who can't handle his Harley getting a little warm in the sun, burns his delicate skin doncha know.  Really wish a police cruiser woulda rolled by.  Seriously, don't be an ass, there's a fucking parking lot there, use it.  Least his pipes weren't super loud.

Fuck you reality, I want to get off.

Further hijacking for personal reasons:

The BFF was readmitted to the hospital on Saturday morning with severe anemia.  Severe as in nearly to the point of death.  She was given blood and saline and all that and was improved enough for a liver biopsy and another CT scan yesterday. 

The oncologist came in today.  Cancer of undetermined origin.  He's talking Stage IV.  He's taking palliative care only.  He's talking terminal.  The liver biopsy results aren't in yet and will taken about a week or so but it's the worst possible news.  He said that there are spots on the liver and it's not certain her liver is in any condition for chemotherapy to be effective.  He didn't give a timeline since it's not really sure where the cancer is originating.  They believe it's some kind of cancer that's spreading through the bloodstream (I'm blanking on the term). 

Biopsy results are pending and he's going to be sending everything out for a second opinion but as of right now it's about determining how long before she dies, not if.  And we're taking weeks to months, not years.

She's devastated.  I want to punch God in the face. 

Please pray or send good thoughts or anything it is you do.  To be utterly selfish, I do not know what I will do without her.   I can't even begin to imagine it. 

Fuck cancer.  Fuck it with Dick Cheney's cougar condom'd dick.

The Reader's Digest Condensed Version of "The Road to Serfdom"

I am rereading Hayek’s “The Road to Serfdom”, and doing a little outside research on Hayek’s views.

Today I was looking up a quote on deflation, that I had seen previously, in response to a post I saw by R. S. McCain. McCain seems to like the idea of deflation, whereas my understanding is that most economists consider deflation to be much more damaging to an economy than mild to moderate inflation. During the course of digging up the quote I was looking for I came across the April 1945 Reader’s Digest condensed version of “The Road to Serfdom”. I have never seen this version before and I think it is probably safe to assume that most people currently jumping on the Hayek bandwagon haven’t either so I am linking it here for the curious.

BTW – the quote I was looking for was:

“I agree with Milton Friedman that once the Crash had occurred, the Federal Reserve System pursued a silly deflationary policy. I am not only against inflation but I am also against deflation. So, once again, a badly programmed monetary policy prolonged the depression.”

The silly deflationary policy that Hayek is referring to was a failure of the Federal Reserve to inflate the monetary supply to combat deflation.The deflationary cycle is described in Wikipedia:

During the Crash of 1929 preceding the Great Depression, margin requirements were only 10%.^[12] Brokerage firms, in other words, would lend $9 for every $1 an investor had deposited. When the market fell, brokers called in these loans, which could not be paid back. Banks began to fail as debtors defaulted on debt and depositors attempted to withdraw their deposits en masse, triggering multiple bank runs. Government guarantees and Federal Reserve banking regulations to prevent such panics were ineffective or not used. Bank failures led to the loss of billions of dollars in assets.^[13] Outstanding debts became heavier, because prices and incomes fell by 20–50% but the debts remained at the same dollar amount. After the panic of 1929, and during the first 10 months of 1930, 744 US banks failed. (In all, 9,000 banks failed during the 1930s). By April 1933, around $7 billion in deposits had been frozen in failed banks or those left unlicensed after the March Bank Holiday.^[14]

Bank failures snowballed as desperate bankers called in loans, which the borrowers did not have time or money to repay. With future profits looking poor, capital investment and construction slowed or completely ceased. In the face of bad loans and worsening future prospects, the surviving banks became even more conservative in their lending.^[13] Banks built up their capital reserves and made fewer loans, which intensified deflationary pressures. A vicious cycle developed and the downward spiral accelerated.

The liquidation of debt could not keep up with the fall of prices it caused. The mass effect of the stampede to liquidate increased the value of each dollar owed, relative to the value of declining asset holdings. The very effort of individuals to lessen their burden of debt effectively increased it. Paradoxically, the more the debtors paid, the more they owed.^[11] This self-aggravating process turned a 1930 recession into a 1933 great depression.

I don't know if this view is correct or not, but it appears that Hayek agreed with it, at least in part. I am not going to claim that he wholeheartedly endorsed all of the Monetarist's conclusions, just that he would have attempted to prevent the deflationary cycle.

Another anniversary

The Fourth of July is also the anniversary of what I would argue is one of the most (if not THE most) iconic non-political speeches in American history:



I don't care if you hate the Yankees, if you don't get the sniffles while watching that, you're a pinko commie dickface.
