One of the best parts of thrifting, aside from finding fabulously valuable merchandise that you can flip on Ebay, are the small windows that open, allowing a deliciously voyeuristic glimpse into humanity.  Take Cynthia, for example, who probably didn’t even realize that she tucked these important papers into the book she was reading in the [...]

And I have absolutely nothing to write about.   I have no lists to compile, I have no great sense of accomplishment or closure, I am just going to wake up tomorrow and it will be January, 2010. Why this overwhelming sense of ennui?  I have no idea.  Maybe it’s because of all the drama in 2009.  Maybe it’s [...]

Even South Park Thinks T.A.P.S. is Full of Shit

You know…”in MY day”…being 13 meant swimming at friends’ houses, playing street hockey, maybe some classic Street Fighter on Super NES, or Mario Kart before it went all crazy 3D on the Game Cube, I could never handle those crazy controllers… But now, NOW, apparently being 13 means txt-ing. Non. F-ing. Stop. This dad I dunno, [...]

I love tattoos.  I love everything about getting a tattoo.  I love the anticipation of the tattoo, the tawdry feeling of subversiveness that comes with hanging out in the tattoo parlor, the knowledge that you are going to leave looking a little more badass than when you walked in, and ESPECIALLY the searing sting and deafening [...]

Any story that starts out like this is going to be awesome: BEIJING (AP) — A college student in southern China was bitten by a panda after he broke into the bear’s enclosure hoping to get a hug, state media and a park employee said Saturday. Don’t fall for their wily woman panda ways! Or you’ll end [...]

It’s Friday, thank god. As anyone who has ever worked a phone job can attest to, that amazing invention with the buttons and the dial tone attracts some total nutjobs that grace one’s daily life on this end of the telephone cord with some truly awesome glimpses at humanity at its finest. For example, the woman who [...]

Seriously.  Why is there so much of it in the world?  Isn’t there a non-profit organization dedicated to the elimination of stupidity? I have been looking forward to a specific rummage sale for several weeks now.  I had my strategy in place, my stockpile of cash, I was SET to do a little transacting.  The rummage [...]

The first line of the story says it all: STEVENSVILLE, Montana (AP) — About 90 elementary school students in Montana have started a series of rabies shots after a parent let them touch a dead bat that was later confirmed to be diseased. But really, to get the full effect, you have to keep reading: The mother of [...]

Redneck Woman Clarified Why Obama Would be a Bad President

Wednesday, October 1, 2008

5 Comments

… that title is a bit misleading, let’s try this one: Redneck woman, barely able to speak, tried to explain that Obama is an unsuitable president because of his name… because aye-rabs are cutting soldiers heads off in Iraq. It’s pretty much iron-clad, I get that, what I also appreciate is how these redneck’s accents are so [...]
