Yo, Fuck Thoreau.
If every Sunday I was forced to attend a church to worship the god of Electricity and his son, who invented for our boredom, Thomas Edison, I would totally do it.  Also, this proves why camping is so unbelievably stupid.

It’s weird that the VMA’S are me sitting in a dark room with no power, again. Like MTV even plays silent darkness anymore.

sarabenincasa: Favorite comment: “A boring dim-wit talking to a mediocre gay black ‘newscaster’ and an obnoxiouos white lesbian…………about nothing of any importance.” Oh djwolf12, it’s true that I am “obnoxiouos,” but Don Lemon is anything but mediocre. Full post over at Newsbusters.

This Rolling Stones concert on Palladia was recorded the year I was born. Nothing that has come after it can really compete. Like, for example, this version of Sweet Virgina. Man.

inothernews: Oh, and since we’ll need reminders come election time: NJ governor Christie thanked President Obama during his press conference for “making federal dollars” available to allow his state to respond to emergencies. A good example of where your federal tax dollars go, Tea Party.

Seriously, though, he’s immensely appealing in certain way and seems very smart. No wonder the Republicans are desperate for him to run. And, really, the USA is no going to elect a fat-president? He was made in our image.

As someone who usually disagrees with Chris Christie’s policies, I think he’s doing a pretty great job with all of this.  And I will not make a “fat guy in little coat” joke.

My grandfather built ships for the Allies in WWII. He also thought Rosa Parks should sit in the back of the bus. Shit is complicated. We should accept it.

I really can’t stand Rachel Maddow lecturing me about my grandparents as she stands in front of the Hoover Dam. My grandparents were assholes. They didn’t build any Hoover Dam.

BIDEN: We Need More Stimulus Now, And S&P... →
Huh. Is this Biden going off the handle or does the administration let Biden do the dirty work like when Joey got blamed for every little piece of evidence that Chandler and Monica were boning? “Who left this condom wrapper in the cheesesteak?” “Me. I’m Joey. I’m disgusting.”

I know nothing about economics and readily admit it, unlike almost everyone with internet access, but what Paul Krugman said was objectively stupid and sociopathic. So, why would I assume every word that he writes about the economy is gospel and unassailable?
