I still can't figure out what button to press on this Gawker thingy to promote a comment (So much for all my time spent as a subway riding sewer rat elite...), but heretoforthwith, I promote!
erotic...erotic...put your hands all over my body
Whoever dreamt up cover letters as some quaint way to introduce yourelf to a company oughta be shot. I look at the cover letter I wrote three years ago for a promotion, and it just sounds so effin' conceited. At the same time, you have to talk yourself up and at least catalogue your strengths since you can't aptly demonstrate them until you're actually on the job.
The "terrifying efficiency" was the most terrifying part. Is he man or cyborg? Human or machine? NO! He's... The Investment Bankerator!
It pre-dates television. This kind of vicarious thrill of witnessing violence is something at the primitive core of human nature. Olympic sports that pit two people against one another, Romans throwing Christians to the lions in the Coliseum... There's some giddy rush we get when we see a physical clash between two parties, some leftover part of our caveman brains that still gets fired up. The same part that probably drove people to want to click on and watch this video. The moral discomfort we feel--which hopefully most people do--sort of comes after the fact.
You know it! I even had Ms. Liquor call my friend on his birthday (yes, you can, too. Go to his/her website for details), who is a graduate of UC Berkeley, and she called him a "pinecone-headed, Occupy Berkeley-ignant... You are so wrong for teaching my daughter them things."
Gat damn homosexicals! Marcus Bachmann must be rolling over in his grave.... Oh, he's not dead, you say?
Context makes a huge difference. She doesn't even clarify in what context she thinks he made the comment. It makes perfect sense to use his comment as an example of a dangerous opinion.
And yes, there are plenty of Jews who make self-effacing comments about Jews as a whole for comedic purposes (Sarah Silverman comes to mind). Where is her proof that the school has a history of silencing other students who bring forth accusations of anti-Semitism?
Silence, naysayers!
I still maintain that Vicky is the Greatest Character Actress of the 2010s! She's set to give Andy Kaufman a run for his money. With those garish My Little Pony Bows she sports in that disheveled wig-of-chicks upsweep, gurling up little cacophonous quotes from her cowskin King James bible, Lady V would a tubular politico! She's already donated her earnings from SNL to the tithes. So there.
The best is when you're at the gay bar with your gay buddies, and their heads are buried in Grindr. It is literally like being on the Axiom in "Wall-E" where everyone is going around communicating through a screen instead of to each other. Cripes.
Okay, I'm going to try to translate for you, though my online-speak is a bit rusty:
45 = 45 years old
5/4 = 5'4"
145 = 145 lbs.
7un = penis is 7 inches long, uncircumcised
45 = 45 years old
5/4 = 5'4"
145 = 145 lbs.
7un = penis is 7 inches long, uncircumcised
10 points for me!
I fell on the floor and nearly asphyxiated from laughter everytime Rosa "performed". She truly sang as if her sense of pitch and how she heard herself was from another dimension.
People still watch America's Favorite Karaoke Show? F'reals?
I think for their can't-happen-too-soon last season they should go out like that show "WB's Superstar USA", the hoax "American Idol"-esque show that promoted the worst singers instead of the best. Hysterical for days. YouTube it.

Like all conservative hypocrites of his ilk who go on and on about family values, you bet he's anti-homo. (Even though he does have a lesbian half-sister.)
Which makes it all the more delicious when these guys get caught with the gay call boy/male page/prostitue/intern/mistress.
I have one called Shit Shit Says that I just posted my Tumblr, Twitter, The YouTubes, and my Friendster. And I want everyone to check it out.

I was implying that both the song and movie were forgettable.
Were the capitalization and quotations surrounding the word "Masterpiece" intentional, and to imply it was a proper noun and title of a song versus a simple noun? I wasn't sure. And what's "Gnomeo & Juliet"?
He had this same reaction when "The Soup" took a couple of harmless jabs at him, and he used his show to respond to them not once, but twice, if not thrice, I believe.
Sort of deflates one's credibility as a newsperson when you're engaging in this rampant pettiness.
I think people do not realize that having kids costs money. So someone in the situation you mention--living in a city where the public schools are crap--should seriously consider the ramifications to their income if they choose to have children and will need to send them to private school. And then not bitch about it.
All the cars and homes and brand name things are traditional luxuries, but quite frankly, so is having a child. Not to mention, our taxation system unfairly favors people who have children, which can be claimed as dependants/exemptions. Some of my co-workers who have children and whose base salary is less than mine have a net-take home that is equal to or greater than my own because I am single and have no kids.
