(no subject)

If you didn't catch it I highly recommend watching The Daily Show from last night, Rob Riggle's piece on the "Loyal Bushie" was hysterical. I so badly want to make an icon of the image of Karl Rove's face plastered on a small furry rodent and the text "The Loyal Bushie...it also devours its young." The "Bushward Bound" stuff nearly had me in tears.

Oh and Jon's interview of John Bolton was a thing of sheer beauty, though there was one frustrating moment. Bolton natters on about how the president should only be accountable to those people who put him into office, their policies are the only ones that count. It certainly does explain the administration's "leadership" style, but the question that begged to be asked was, "So what's his responsibility to the other half of the country who didn't vote for him? Do they simply not count because they lost? Does he have no responsibility to at least listen to their points of view?" I couldn't tell if it just didn't occur to Jon or if he sidestepped it on purpose, in either case it was frustrating as hell.

Aside from that I managed to do almost nothing last night between getting home super late from work and the fact that TiVo had grabbed both the XFiles episodes "Field Trip" and "Demons". Like I could possibly not watch both...I'm only human after all. So good! There are two eps I must have that don't seem to be coming up any time soon, "Detour" and "Bad Blood" (arguably the funniest hour of television ever aired), which makes me sad. But on a happy note I think I'm just an iteration or two from finalizing the second disc of my two-disc XFiles mix set. Go me!

Fun for the masses

In honor of this bit of wingnut spewage:

"As you sit in your Subaru Outback with the 'Save Tibet' bumper sticker," he wrote in one sneering column directed at liberals, "sipping your decaf-soy milk-latte, dining on your veggie burger, and whining about the poor al-Qaida being bombed, think about this: Freedom is not free. But don't worry. Your friends and neighbors are paying the price."

I propose the following game. Let's Mad Lib this bitch:

"As you sit in your ____________ with the ___________ bumper sticker," he wrote in one _______ column directed at __________, "Sipping your __________, dining on your _________, and whining about _______________________, think about this: Freedom is not _______. But don't worry. Your _______ and ________ are paying the price."

Funniest response wins the gold star!
