when the status quo frustrates.

A time to pause and reflect on my lack of cohesiveness.

End of the year meme from Lauren:

1) Harken back to your archives.
2) Collect the first sentence you wrote every month for the whole year.
3) Entertain us.

December: WalMart reaches out and snags the “World’s Most Clueless Corporation” trophy right out of Northwest’s hands.


November:
I was flipping through a fashion magazine some months ago as I waited for Walmart to install new tires on my boyfriend’s car (please, I know. I’ve been having more success recently in getting him to spend his money elsewhere. It helps alot that their clothes are for crap.) and there was a whole section in the magazine devoted to stylish clothes you could buy at Walmart.

October: Jess at Bee Policy has a simple 6-question quiz to determine if the government will be just that into you in the near future.

September: Like nuts and gum, NASCAR and reality TV…together at last!

August: Remember when everyone just knew that all the good men were taken by the time you girls were thirty, so you’d better get married before your expiration date hits?

July: So I finally got to try out this Celebrity Face Match thing that is making the rounds, and I am utterly confused.

June:
I’m back!

May: The European Union is about to have a new battery recycling law:

April:
Domain names are hot, hot, hot again, and yet somehow punkassblog.com was still available for marc to grab before fleeing into the balmy internet night.

Another meme, since I’d never snub JackGoff by not responding to his tagging. There don’t seem to be any rules associated with this one, so I’m gonna make some up as I go. As usual, other PABloggers are free to add their own to this post.

You Are Duck


Exotic and unusual, you are a bit of a rare bird – literally.
You’re known for being soft and succulent, though at times you can be a bit greasy.

Gross.

List of ingested items that do not make me sick: vegetables, coffee, booze, Jell-o. My stomach loves me, my intestines are pissed off. Duck is a no-no.

In other news, someone out there is elated that I’m ill because it gives him the opportunity to rail against The Left.

To wit:

The defining characteristic of the people on your side is just so hilarious, that tremendous contrast between your grand plans to rearrange the whole society and your total inability to successfully manage even your own lives, making you helplessly drift from one personal crisis to another.

And I don’t even feel bad about laughing at this. Next to what you guys did during the twentieth century, killing about a hundred million people and condemning billions of others to live under a tyranny of poverty and misery that we can’t even imagine today, nothing that I could ever do would amount to much more than a bite of a flea.

Do note, dear sir, that I didn’t ask for a handout, I asked for an IV bag to rid myself of the bother so I can, you know, work. Isn’t that better than asking for free healthcare and food stamps? I personally took the Republican message to heart. I didn’t just get myself one job to pay the bills, man, I got two, and I’m patiently waiting these nine months to receive health care benefits for myself and my family while I work 14-16 hour days. I’m a Republican wet dream.

Marketable degree? Got it. Bootstraps? Got ‘em too. Favorable economy? That’s on you and yours, man, along with the black heart it takes to laugh at people with health problems. Compassion? I’ll give you a bit of mine. It appears you need it, dollface.

We’ve been tagged…tagged for FUN!

Friday, August 18th, 2006

We’ve been tagged for a book meme, which should be fun and a convenient way to see if McBoing is still alive. It’s about that time of the month where a customer service rep starts to hear all kinds of zany things, so maybe we’d hear from him even if I didn’t actively attempt to pry him from hiding.

Let’s get on with our literary selves:

The Conflict Escalates

Wednesday, August 2nd, 2006

I think it was Hemmingway who first said; “War is hell, and a naked woman standing on a whale.”

Such is the nature of war that escalation was inevitable, but little did I suspect that Hezbollah’s crack CosPlay troops would launch a surprise attack: (more…)

Zardoz Commands you!

“Cease This 80′s YouTube Madness At Once!”

In case a direct command from the only flying stone head to give Sean connery an erection isn’t enough, here’s a live video of Sleater Kinney performing “Rollercoaster”, the sound quality is totally quiet so turn those speakers up for best results.

Check out Carrie Brownstein at around the 1:50 mark btw, is it just my filthy filthy imagination or does she totally look like she’s using her guitar as a bean flicking substitute? Between her head lolling all over the show and the pelvic motions, I’m just saying…

Yet another wrong test. The problem isn’t about the atheism per se, it’s that I mostly don’t care.
