Man is the only animal that laughs and weeps, for he is the only animal that is struck with the difference between what things are and what they ought to be. – William Hazlitt

I think we often discount the effect of the Poached-Egg Conservative. When will someone cater to this forgotten line of voters?
Wonder how much Paul Simon/Paul Simon confusion led to Graceland showing up here as well?
Ain’t data mining entertaining?

If not, why is he the #1MP3 artist on Amazon right now? I mean, I’m sure he’s a wonderful artist, but #1 today for no reason? Google News has nothing that stands out.
Also, if you look at that photo without paying much attention, does it look like he has a puppet?
Why does it smell like almonds in… ^H^H^H^H^H

This is satire. It’s also ham-fisted (thanks J–) and stupid for a cover, but satire nonetheless. If When you encounter someone who thinks it’s prescient or insightful or whatever, you have my permission to smack them upside their idiotic skull*. ‘Grats to the New Yorker for the best attention whoring of the election season so far.
* Note, my permission doesn’t mean crap in any court, workplace, or household, including my own.

However, unlike any marriages on my list, the real, legal and actual same-sex marriages in California are in danger of being destroyed by people who aren’t actually in them. There is no initiative on the California November ballot to “protect” marriage from already-married Creed fans or Pepsi drinkers. There will be one to “protect” marriage from already-married same-sex couples.
Which is to say: Isn’t it funny how some people are going so far out of their way to destroy marriages they say they don’t believe actually exist.
Well, now, that’s an interesting little quandary. Click through to read the entire article; it’s funny and brilliant. This whole “gay marriage” thing is completely out of control; can we just, for once, let it go and let people get on with losing half their crap, no matter who they’re splitting their assets with?
Note to heteros: homosexuals entering into a legally binding contract in no way diminishes the validity or meaning of your legally binding contract. Moaning about “gay marriage” demeaning the “sanctity” of marriage as a whole is like saying that, because gays are allowed to have a mortgage, your mortgage is of less value (try and sell that one to the bank). Down with gay mortgages!
This post brought to you by a double entendre, more than a few Beavis and Butthead-style giggles, and the letter “V”. Oh, and Creed sucks ass. Oh, I almost forgot. Search Google for “gay marriage california” (or click here, yah lazy bum). Rainbow sidebars!
Also, anyone who even starts a refutation which invokes religion or wingnut rhetoric will be either a) mocked mercilessly or b) have their comment deleted; depends how frisky I’m feeling.

What the hell is wrong with people? I was going through some stats and ran through search terms that drew people to this blog. (An aside: My apologies to anyone who came here for actual information.)
Seriously though, what are you really looking for when you search for some of these strings?
Ah, the awe and mystery of the Internet.
