I can't stop staring at that ... what is that, lipliner? Girl, let me steer you toward the makeup counter ...
I can't stop watching -- and LOLing at -- this!
Seriously. They have zero chance of converting people to their way of thinking with their ridiculous ads and tactics. Sure, their supporters love them, but they're already supporters! Try a little subtlety. It's infuriating.
HAH! Silly Kari, don't you know that compromise is only for liberals?
I quit my job to go freelance over a year ago, and I've never been happier professionally. No mingling with people (some people here have said they're "introverts" so it works for them; I'm a "misanthrope" so it works for me), no walk-train-bus-walk combination that took an hour and a half if I didn't get to the station at the right time, no listening to the loud coworker who talked to herself if no one else talked back, no fighting over how cold/hot the office is. I used to get colds like twice a month, seriously, and I think I've had one in the last year since I no longer have to touch handrails and subway poles that nasty sneezing coughing sick people have touched.

tl;dr -- I'm poorer than I've ever been, but I'm happier than I've ever been. And with a couple of new clients I just got, hopefully that first part might be eradicated soon.

The guy's an idiot, his intern is an idiot, etc. But I will say that The Onion posted the abortionplex article on Facebook on Friday after the Komen brouhaha. The FB headline was "Restoration of Komen Funding Assure Abortionplex Will Remain Open," but the link is to the original story. I noticed a few people here were talking about how late he was, but if he thinks it's real, no reason he wouldn't believe it was late-breaking news.
Off topic, yes, every time! :)
You know what would be awesome? If one of them had a record for having peoplefights in the back yard.
Why are all of your comments pink?

(sorry, OT, just curious.)

I have two cats, a girl and a boy, a month apart in age. Since I got them they have eaten exactly the same thing (except the boy occasionally eats people food -- not much -- and the girl can't be bothered). However, the girl is overweight. She weighs about 12 pounds, and I'd say she probably should be more like 10. Because of this, I give them both "diet" food. The boy is average weight. She just A) inherited my nonexistent metabolism, and/or B) doesn't play enough to burn it off. The boy plays a lot, even if no one is around to play with him. She, not so much. I'd love to get a bigger apartment where they wouldn't have a tiny, narrow track through two small rooms for chases, but I can't afford it. Not sure what exactly I can do.

Tell her that she is fuckin' awesome for me! (You don't have to use "fuckin'" if you don't want, she's pretty young.) I hope there are ten of her for every one of those horrible hateful 14-year-olds whose birthday wish is to curtail civil rights. Young people like her (oh god I'm old, aren't I?) give me a slight, teeny bit of hope in an increasingly messed-up world.
That is always No. 3 on my list of reasons I give when some jackass is rude enough to ask. (I mean, not the Applebee's analogy, just the "you should be grateful" part.)

For the record, No. 1 is "I'm not a porn star" and No. 2 is "I'm not an 8-year-old."

Re: No. 2 -- Santorum's still in, right? I find someone who is opposed to contraception, who thinks homosexuality is the same as bestiality, to be pretty freakin' scary. Or is it pretty much a Romney-Gingrich race from here on out?

If I were a Republican, I'd be registering Independent right about now. I'd be ashamed these were the best they had to offer.

Thank you for that! I always heard it as "upper pussy." The more you know ... *shooting stars*
I never noticed that Apu had a fupa. Wait, do you call it a fupa on a guy?
I have one of those, except it's about half an inch above my eyebrow. One weird stray hair coming out of my forehead. Luckily it's blond (unlike me) and very fine, so no one notices it if I forget to pluck. Once I let it go to see how long it would get and I finally couldn't resist and plucked it at about 2 inches long.
