Umm... yeah
While I'm not a fan of the illegalities of scanning and posting entire pages from comics, I do enjoy the discussion about the comics themselves found in the various scans_daily posts. However, somebody came up with the bright idea of having a week devoted to prurient material, of which the post count seemed to just explode. (Fanboys do this? No way!) Some of ( Read more... ) -
Brrrrrr!
I just took Arf and Zoe out for their evening constitutional and discovered, to my chagrin, that it's REALLY cold outside. -
Probably Unintended
It didn't take long for the marketing to start after Barack Obama's election. As I watch the beautifully creepy House of Wax (with Vincent Price, not the Hilton heiress), there's a super long commercial for the commemorative Barack Obama half dollar.

I don't want to hot link the image and I don't have a Photobucket account so...
Follow this link to see a great Alex Ross painting about those who doth protest too much (might be considered NSFW). Yes, this is the same Alex Ross who paints those terrific superhero portraits. You might also have seen his picture of Vampire George Bush sucking the ( Read more... ) -
I Really Wish I Hadn't Thought Of This
With all the enthusiasm over Barack Obama's election (including two adorable little boys I saw over the weekend excited over a magazine with the President-Elect on the cover), I've been doing a bit of thinking. Don't misunderstand, I'm very happy that this election produced turnouts not seen in decades with people wanting the status quo shaken up. ( Read more... ) -
Inappropriate
Earlier this afternoon, a member of the Obama campaign called. This would make the fifth call received (robot or person) since Friday. I understand that this is the final stretch (and the price I pay for voting in all of one Democratic primary), but today's call unnerved me a bit.
The caller was friendly enough, but she immediately asked whom I was ( Read more... ) -
From the "You've-Got-to-Be-Shitting-Me Department"
Dateline: Michigan -- Woman refuses to give candy to kids of Obama supporters.
"Nagel calls Democrat Barack Obama 'scary.' When asked about children who were turned away empty-handed and crying, she said: 'Oh well. Everybody has a choice.'"
Yeah, everybody does have a choice. And you chose to be an asswipe bitch swine.

The Stigma of D&D Continues
Because charity money came from players of Dungeons & Dragons, it was rejected by Gary Gygax's favorite charity, the Christian Childrens' Fund. Who knew that followers of Satan wanted to help children?

I Guess They Just Don't Care Now
I'm currently waiting for my car to be maintained and CNN is on. John McCain's speech in, I think, Springfield, Virginia was televised. As the senator kept reiterating his ill-informed talking points about Obama, a crowd began chanting, "Take him out ( Read more... )
