And don’t get me started about sex on TV. I keep falling off. </oldjoke>

Of course not and every film would have generated better box office without these unnecessary insertions

Right.

Because no one talked about Viggo’s naked ass on the stairs, or the fact that Kate Winslet bared her tits in the movies in question.

What a doosh.

Wait, Weismuller and O’Hara? You mean, Tarzan the Ape Man with its shocking naked pre-code nude scenes, shock horror instant cardiac arrest? Why must Sadly No roll in this smut so gratefully, like a poodle in a patch fouled by a great dane???

without these unnecessary insertions

I think I see her problem.

Wow. I went over there. I am so totally going to get off her lawn now.

He column is MUCH funnier if you read it in the voice of Margaret Dumont.

Sounds like someone didn’t get her phone call after “one magical night.” Awww.

Sixteen of the top 20 box office earners have either a G or PG rating which should be a clue that R rated films ( “Titanic” being the exception) don’t do as well yet studios continue to add gratuitous irrelevant sex scenes that ruin the film.

Er . . . if 16/20 are G or PG, aren’t there 4 exceptions? And if I’m going to an R-rated movie it’s with my girlfriend (2 tickets). If I’m going to a G- or PG-rated movie it’s with my girlfriend and her kid (3 tickets). Multiplied by hundreds of thousands of families . . . and, well, it doesn’t really say anything about the content. Unless she thinks Hollywood should only make children’s movies.

I know, right? I expect a man to lay his wife down on a soft, pillowy bed scented with lavender and strewn with rose petals when he hatefucks her.

Also, no jokes about her last name yet, guys? I’m disappointed.

Reminds me of that great George Carlin monologue: “There are two KNOBS on the radio…” I can’t see anyone holding a gun to their head making them watch these movies! Then again, it IS a chance to gripe and complain, which seems to be the main wing-nut sport nowadays.

Someone tell her the missionary position is not all-terrain.

They did all the colon jokes the first time she poked her Christmas pudding shaped head over the parapet and made her existence plain to a disinterested world.

Big banks and financial institutions need less or even no regulation because all they are doing is screwing poor people and the free market has spoken. Big Hollywood needs far more regulation because they are screwing each other on screen! The free market no longer applies.

Or did she not mean to imply that Titanic was rated R? Her post is so barely literate I can’t tell.

Veiled wingnut marriage description.

OK, so the Colon has an issue with unnecessary insertions.
That’s fine; not everyone is down with that kind of play, I guess

Unnecessary Colon insertions? Don’t want!!!

I sorta take Colon’s musings about how comfortable sex on stairs is with as much credibility as if it was Ben Shapiro discoursing on the subject. Sex in a pup tent, Ford Mustang, or a poison ivy patch is a bit difficult too, but for some odd reason it seems to happen. Hell, some conservative men can’t tolerate sex in a bed with horny Reese WItherspoon types that use birth control, let alone on a staircase.

Ironically, one of the “R” rated films on the top twenty grossing of all time is….wait for it…Mel Gibson’s The Passion Of The Christ

All that god-porn must have driven the censors wild…

Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT go to Aliciacolon.com, click on “Gallery” and look upon her artwork, posted in response to the tremendous demand of her reader (sic)…

Mel Gibson’s The Passion Of The Christ

There’s a flick full of necessary insertions. Too bad it wasn’t the snuff film it longed to be.

I meant the talentless dweeb playing him seems to still be alive.

As a teen and a young woman, I’d buy all the movie mags with their color pictures of beautiful people who could honestly be called STARS. Now I find it difficult to name one female star today who doesn’t dress or act like a skank. Sorry. I realize it’s a sign of the times but that doesn’t mean I can’t prefer a time when class was what determined stardom.

Also blowjobs, pills, and the ability to drink like a fish.

Somewhere, Fatty Arbuckle is weeping.

Hey, Jim Caviezel had a nice career before playing Jesus and still manages to keep his hand in acting…if you can call being The Prisoner “acting”…

OK, yes, politically the guy’s a doosh (he donated to Santorum’s re-election), and he should know better (he played the Count of Monte Cristo AND Jesus) about man’s inhumanity to man, but he has credits, to be sure and a little bit of talent.

Nancy Reagan is rolling in her grave.

Her column reminded me of a “700 Club” from about twenty years ago wherein Pat’s pal Cal Thomas said in one breath that Hollywood is only interested in making money and in the next said that family movies are the biggest money-makers. It is not just “self-awareness” in which they are deficient; it is any kind of “awareness.”

Who the fuck is she talking about, by the way? Mary Pickford was married three times and probably had an abortion. I don’t think you can get more old skool Hollywood and wholesome appearing than Mary Fucking Pickford.

The only person I can think of off the top of my head who would be sufficiently moral and non-skanky for a wingnut would be Ingrid Bergman.

That was the question I was asking myself, by the way.

Is she fooling herself? The only reason her glamorized image of Hollywood exists is because of the tireless work of studio heads and actors’ agents who kept the press in line with many bribes and “exclusive” stories.

Good grief, Greta Garbo had an open affair with Mercedes de Acosta…while she was banging John Gilbert! Alone, indeed!

Guys, stop laughing at her and follow her advice. I assume Ms. Colon would know all about being fucked in uncomfortable places.

“On the backseat of a Volkswagen?”

Stop-Motion-Photopticon Quarterly and Edison’s Magic Lantern Gazette were published in color?

I’m a little flabbergasted that anyone could possibly be shocked by now that Kate Winslet would appear nude in a film; she drops trou on camera more often than I change my socks.

Friends, the nominees for Awesomest Consevative Novels are in:

— Gilead, by Marilynne Robinson
— Sometimes a Great Notion, by Ken Kesey
— Big Sur, by Jack Kerouac
— American Pastoral, by Philip Roth
— The late novels of John Dos Passos
— The spy novels of Charles McCarry

This is going to make as much sense as Jonah Goldberg trying to clain Ghostbusters was conservative because the DPW character was a total nerd.

It’s quite nice of her, really.

Well, it is about a writer who loses his mind to booze, so maybe there’s something conservative-reflecting about that…

Now I’m beginning to think that Miller is just taking the piss.

Alicia: note: stairs are a very uncomfortable place to indulge in this activity

Dear God, that is a mental image I did NOT need.

For me, the shocking pick is Ken “Merry Prankster” Kesey.

I wonder if the neo-cons are trying a bit TOO hard to hold onto their faux-hippy legacies…

Friends, the nominees for Awesomest Consevative Novels are in:

How did they miss Southern’s “Candy”? The title character is happy and dumb, so she must be a republican.

Anybody catch that John-Boy posted a link to his own website…where comments are welcome? 🙂

Yeah, Kesey’s inclusion made me laugh. Electric Kool Aid Acid Test was such an exposition of conservative values.

I wonder if the neo-cons are trying a bit TOO hard to hold onto their faux-hippy legacies…

In the context of the Roth pick, it’s pretty clear that he’s trying to poke hippies in the eye. Why people (conservatives, really) who aren’t even Baby Boomers continue to fight the culture wars of the 60s, I’ll never understand.

The Kesey and Roth picks I actually get in some twisted way. Big Sur, though??!

For me, the shocking pick is Ken “Merry Prankster” Kesey.

Well, the family sticks up to a big bad Union in it! Sure, they destroy themselves, their relationships, their home, and their business in the process, and none of them were very sympathetic in the first place, but what’s really heroic is not paying fair wages.

If I had my way the book would be titled Sometimes a Great Notion to Go Galt is Really Fucking Stupid.

Right, yes Ms. Colon. I get it: the sex scenes in movies are often dramatized to increase their appeal.

But why is she only complaining about sex scenes? Does she really think Brice Willis makes a habit of driving police cars into helicopters? Hollywood is mostly about escapism (for better or worse), and a more interesting question might be why we always have to have erotic thrillers in which someone promiscuous (usually a woman) ends up dying. We can get our jollies but someone’s gotta pay.

The reason Caligula sucked was the gratuitous sex. If the producers removed all the naughty bits , it would have gotten a PG rating, and may have been one of the highest-grossing movies of all time.

This is going to make as much sense as Jonah Goldberg trying to clain Ghostbusters was conservative because the DPW character was a total nerd.

Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!

Too bad it wasn’t the snuff film it longed to be.

“Jesus doesn’t die in it?”

He got better

And what do they mean, “The late novels of John Dos Passos?” All of them? Is that to avoid picking one so you can’t see how much he declined since his anarchist days? Or how poorly it might compare to U.S.A. (which is kind of the fulcrum between his revolutionary and McCarthyite periods)?

Philip Roth appeals to conservatives because there aren’t any unnecessary insertions in his writing.

C_X,

In fairness to Miller, Dos Passos did turn vigorously anti-Communist and anti-Socialist in his later years, and warned often (including a speech at the 1932 Democratic National Convention) about FDR’s big government programs as reflected in his USA trilogy.

Philip Roth appeals to conservatives because there aren’t any unnecessary insertions in his writing.

And LOTS of fapping.

And what do they mean, “The late novels of John Dos Passos?” All of them?

I don’t know, but it’s basically a concession that rightwing politics make for shitty, shitty writing.

And what do they mean, “The late novels of John Dos Passos?” All of them?

Only the ones he submitted to his publisher after deadline.

So I broke down and read the whole goddamn piece… And Ms Colon reckons the the Love Actually vignette involving the two stand-ins for a sex-scene is gratuitous eroticism?

You know, maybe I’d have some empathy for the wingnut mind if they could identify half-decent examples to illustrate their points. But when they criticize a brilliantly subtle and ironic take on the very issue arousing their poutrage, well, you just have to write them off as stupid assholes.

No, USA was rather leftist and anti-WW I. You might be thinking of his District of Columbia trilogy.

But when they criticize a brilliantly subtle and ironic take on the very issue arousing their poutrage, well, you just have to write them off as stupid assholes.

BUT SHE SHOWS HER BOOBIES!!!!!

And what do they mean, “The late novels of John Dos Passos?” All of them?

Oh, I thought they were referring to the ones written after he’d died, the ones by the zombie john dos passos.

Okay, does Poe’s Law apply to discussions of books? From Miller’s blog:

“I find it hard to believe nobody’s suggested Sinclair Lewis’ supremely conservative 1935 novel ‘It Can’t Happen Here.’ In it, duly elected President of the United States Berzelius ‘Buzz’ Windrip is forced to defend the principle of the Unitary Executive from the seditious attacks of liberal journalist Doremus Jessup.

Whether it’s bravely fighting off his enemies in the Mainstream Media, mobilizing bands of patriots (‘Minutemen’ in the novel) to oppose liberal treachery, or declaring war on Mexico to demonstrate America’s resolve, Buzz Windrip is the consummate conservative hero. Highly recommended!”

I still think “My Pet Goat” should be high on the list for coservative novels. It has a link to 9/11, which passes a very important conservative litmus test. Also it is written at a level that some conservatives just might understand.

“I find it hard to believe nobody’s suggested Sinclair Lewis’ supremely conservative 1935 novel ‘It Can’t Happen Here.’…Buzz Windrip is the consummate conservative hero.

Thus proving once more that conservatives take Stephen Colbert seriously, because satire is unknown to them…

Unless the comment is meant sarcastically, of course.

No, USA was rather leftist and anti-WW I.

I think you’ll find it evolves from 1919 to Big Money, and his worldview adjusts to a distinctly (altho less strident than later) anti-labor, anti-Communist tone as the trilogy is published.

That was the take I had from it, altho we did study Dos Passos’ bio before reading it. At any rate, there was an awful lot of foreshadowing, I felt, in the last third of the trilogy.

Unless the comment is meant sarcastically, of course.

I think it might be. I’d expect a conservative to argue that Obama=Buzz Windrip, not that Buzz Windrip is some sort of hero.

But who the fuck knows? These people think that fascism is a leftist movement.

The reason Caligula sucked was the gratuitous sex. If the producers removed all the naughty bits , it would have gotten a PG rating, and may have been one of the highest-grossing shortest movies of all time.

FTFY.

I find it hard to believe nobody’s suggested Sinclair Lewis’ supremely conservative 1935 novel ‘It Can’t Happen Here.’…Buzz Windrip is the consummate conservative hero.

Has to be a spoof. Has to. They aren’t that dumb, are they?

Worse than his vanity production “Hitler Meets Christ”, in which good ol’ Mike plays…wait for it…Hitler?

Michael Moriarity sez:

“that’s why I’m here … as a pro-life libertarian”

‘Pro-life libertarian’ = ‘I like my rights just fine, but yours could use some curtailing.’ Another conservative who thinks he’s a libertarian because he agrees with Grover Norquist.

“Alice Cooper fucked jelly doughnuts.”

Yes, but it was in a Tarzan movie so it’s OK by Alicia Colon.

Michael Moriarty:

In the 1940’s, the possible jail penalties certainly didn’t keep my parents, a surgeon and his alcoholic wife, from having two illegal abortions, cardinal illegalities.

Makes me wonder if he realizes that with his parents in prison for having two abortions his conception would have been rather unlikely.

“sexual heat that a long gone Maureen O’Sullivan and Johnny Weismuller managed to generate in our own minds.”

Veiled masturbation reference.

I have performed a Fristian (i.e., ‘remote’) diagnosis of Michael Moriarty and can only arrive at a finding of brain damage from prenatal alcohol syndrome, compounded by heavy drinking later in life.

In the 1940’s, the possible jail penalties certainly didn’t keep my parents, a surgeon and his alcoholic wife, from having two illegal abortions, cardinal illegalities.

I was informed of those facts at the rather dumbfounded age of 10.

“My parents had two of my siblings murdered?!”

No one was arrested … because no one knew … except for my equally stunned sister and myself.

Divorces are a war zone, of course … but divorce after two abortions … for the surviving children … is a Holocaust zone.

With an actual lifetime of survivor’s guilt … ranking second only to the Irish predisposition for alcoholism … I’m surprised I’ve done as well as I have … thanks to Alcoholics Anonymous … and the words, “Let go, let God!”

Now here I am back in not just Hollywood but Big Hollywood!

What a journey!

All ellipses and italics are sic.

With an actual lifetime of survivor’s guilt

With all due respect to our vaginally-enhanced blogmates…Moriarity is a pussy.

I also just want to point out that the previous Colon thread sat at the perfect number of comments for nearly ten hours until the Goddamned Batman came along.

” but divorce after two abortions … for the surviving children … is a Holocaust zone.”

What kind of zone is it for the non-surviving children?

No one was arrested … because no one knew … except for my equally stunned sister and myself.

Why were Michael Moriarty and his equally stunned sister arrested? 🙁

“the rather dumbfounded age of ten”

I’m guessing -all- of Moriarty’s ages are equally dumbfounded.

If Moriarity’s parents had two abortions in the face of criminal penalties, why, again, does he think criminalizing abortion is a good idea? How could he possibly come to the conclusion that criminalizing abortion makes it any less likely?

How the fuck does that idea follow from the facts?

God. The stupidity is just mind-numbing.

If Moriarity’s parents had two abortions in the face of criminal penalties, why, again, does he think criminalizing abortion is a good idea?

It’s obvious: most people are law-abiding, unlike this thug’s parents.

Divorcing after aborting two fetuses is just like brutalizing and killing millions of Jews, gypsies, gays, handicapped, etc. And survivor’s guilt, good God. A sense of proportion: GET ONE.

I too wished my parents were in jail when I was young. They simply would not buy Frankenberry for me.

Mr Libertarian thinks the penalty for having an abortion should be that the father, mother, and doctor should be subjected to intrusive government surveillance for multi-year period.

Way to trigger me, Substance.

HOTCHA!

They simply would not buy Frankenberry for me.

Quisp. Mine was Quisp. When they refused to buy it, I held my breath.

Now that it’s off the market, I still refuse to breathe, which makes me a libertarian.

“I wonder what the children of Julianne Moore will think of her naked lap dance in “Boogie Nights” when they’re old enough to see the film.”

Holy shit. She’s complaining about a sex scene in a movie about a porn star. Is she gonna lambaste GI Joe for being violent next?

MY CHILDHOOD WAS ONE OF DESPERATION. I had even less chance of getting the Fruit Brute, but then I wasn’t Catholic.

Is she gonna lambaste GI Joe for being violent next?

Who knows. Does she even think excessive movie violence is a bad thing to begin with?

Does she even think excessive movie violence is a bad thing to begin with?

No, because violence doesn’t rate an “R” rating…unless it’s Pulp Fiction.

Fickzled.

Notice how she finds time to criticise the sex in ‘A History Of Violence’, but not the, uh, violence . . . well, we all know sex and passion are the real killers, but blowing people’s brains out is an American tradition.

Oh man, I just found my favorite new movie review site. Unintentionally, it’s very salacious, while trying to give parents very detailed reviews of the content.

John C. Reilly may or may not be in hot pants, but he gives an absolute classic performance as a One-Upper. And he makes the whole recording studio sequence.

Wow, just wow. Sort of a stream of consciousness act, Jack Kerouac meets Terry Bradshaw.

Well, T&U, in fairness, Quisp was a space alien.

I was actually talking about Fruit Brute (what an awful name!), but I’d never heard of Quisp, either.

I begged and begged for Rainbow Brite cereal, and when I finally got it, I couldn’t finish the box because it was so nasty. And it scraped the hell out of my mouth.

I remember talking about what a marketing ripoff it was. This is probably part of the reason why I had no friends–what normal six-year-old child analyzes cereal tie-ins?

So when does the media enable the right-wing call for Tiger Woods’ long form vault copy birth certificate?

Quisp

Oh man, I just found my favorite new movie review site. Unintentionally, it’s very salacious, while trying to give parents very detailed reviews of the content.

Unfortunately the information on this site is obviously unreliable. It says nothing of a Julianne Moore naked lap dance anywhere. And since I’m sure Ms Colon would do her research and get her facts straight it is certainly screenit.com that has made the error.

Pac Man Cereal was great – marshmallows galore – and then they put in Super Pac Man, a GIANT marshmallow.

When they introduced Quisp, it was paired, IIRC, with another product called “Quake”, and kids were supposed to vote on their favorite. Apparently, Quisp won that particular referendum, but I never voted, alas, because my parents also never bought the good cereal. We always had a selection of “healthy” cereals with names like “Toasted Grain Pellets ‘N Chaff–Now With extra Vitamin Nuggets!”

The only time I ever remember Julianne Moore getting naked was in Short Cuts. And that was just from the waist down.

Quite apart from the naked stuff, you should see more movies.

The only time I ever remember Julianne Moore getting naked was in Short Cuts. And that was just from the waist down.

I think she’s naked or almost naked in The Big Lebowski. I honestly don’t remember if she was ever naked in Boogie Nights.

Dammit!

The best thing about that movie–besides a naked Julianne Moore and the fact that it’s fucking hilarious–is the fact that Aimee Mann is in it.

And Ms Colon reckons the the Love Actually vignette involving the two stand-ins for a sex-scene is gratuitous eroticism?

She actually kinda-sorta seems to get it, but then has a fainting spell due to the “graphic display.”

‘Course, the scenes weren’t remotely erotic, they were adorably awkward and nonsexual. Hence teh funneh.

I honestly don’t remember if she was ever naked in Boogie Nights.

She gets balled hard by Mark Wahlberg. Don’t recall how much you see, but it’s enough to stir a young man’s…fancy.

I was raised on Product 19, a diet cereal, despite the fact that I ranked about the 20% percentile in weight. Once in a while, I could get my mom to spring for corn flakes.

Actor, did you see Jeff Beck’s instrumental version of that song on HBO last night?

No. I don’t get HBO so I have to wait until MTV decides to purchase it for Paladia. Or I could buy tickets to the Beck/Clapton tour in 2010.

Stuck on the subject of breakfast food, then.

You know! Thingy

Is it a fiendish thingy?

You think a Willie Horton thing?

I do. The Malkinites are already all over his ass. Pretty much *all* Republicans agree that it’s important to be “tough on crime.” I have a feeling he’ll get a beatdown in the primaries, especially since this is the second time that someone he’s pardoned has re-offended. And one of the cops this guy killed was active in the Tea Party movement. I mean, there’s still a lot of time between now and the Republican primary, but I think he’s toast.

I remember Fruity Yummy Mummy. There were four in that series, Chocula, Frankenberry, Boo Berry and Fruity Yummy Mummy.

And of course, Frankenberry stool…

Is it a fiendish thingy?

You’ve seen my kidney stone, I see.

In non-genitalia related news, does anyone else besides me think that Huckabee’s toast?

Who knows, considering the morons he caters to. I don’t think he should be, for this. Every time some jailbird commits a horrible crime, whoever let him out of his prison last gets roasted for not having a crystal ball. It’s a cheap shot. Much as I dislike Huckabee, I dislike using the dead bodies of four police officers to score cheap political points even more.

Seems likely that Yummy Mummy replaced the Fruit Brute.

Quake was never the same after they changed the mascot from a miner to a cowboy.

By the by, how many ranch hands cringed when Hostess introduced “Twinkie the Cowboy”?

This person is fairly correct in the idea that using “suggestive, tantalizing” methods to show sex is quite erotically -uh- stimulating. The diaphanous, translucent dress being more enthralling (to some) than just nude boobs & butts.

But she uses this meme as a justification for censorship of more explicit sex. That’s the stupid wingnuttia rationalization. She (claims that she) doesn’t like crude sex, therefore no one should be allowed to see it.

She doesn’t think any man today is as sexy as Johnny Weismuller. That’s kind of perverse.

. Much as I dislike Huckabee, I dislike using the dead bodies of four police officers to score cheap political points even more.

I agree, and I think that accusing someone of being soft on crime because he pardoned a young man is pretty stupid. (Though I am disturbed that his reasons for pardoning him may be based on religion). But I don’t think he’ll even make it out of the primary, which will be chock full of stupid people who love to score cheap political points.

I wonder what the children of Julianne Moore will think of her naked lap dance in “Boogie Nights”

I wonder if the children of Julianne Moore, an actress, will comprehend that their mother is an actress, someone who performs in character, in works of fiction.

If Huck didn’t want to face primaries full of stupid people, he shouldn’t have been a Republican.

When I hear the name Kate Winslet, I don’t think Titanic (a movie which gave me nightmares even tho I never saw it), I think of “Sense & Sensibility” and the scene where Alan Rickman carries her to shelter in the rain. I thought He’d burst something important. I said “ROLL her, Mr. Rickman, it’ll be easier and faster!”

Yes. That’s her now.

All due respect, Smut, but this is more in keeping with your nym:

Real Life Yummy Mummies

“Twinkie the Cowboy”?

“Brokeback mountin'”?

Cowboys are the Jews of the processed snack food industry.

All of those Hostess products made good insults. You could call someone a Twinkie, a Ding Dong, or a Fruit Pie.

Apropos of this, true story (heard it on Lewis Black’s holiday special on History last night).

Do you know the derivation of “Ho Ho Ho”?

Turns out the original Saint attributed to Santa Claus, St Nicholas, saved three young girls in the Third Century BCE from selling themselves into prostitution.

Yes. That’s her now.

What?! It’s not like she weighed, like, 800 pounds before or was some sort of hideous beast. She’s a classically beautiful woman.

Kate Winslet always has been and always will be hot. Even with that stupid hair in Sense and Sensibility.

Divorces are a war zone, of course … but divorce after two abortions … for the surviving children … is a Holocaust zone.

The Hostess Tiger Tail is, of course, a term of endearment, my little Chocodile.

Frankenberry Stool: I had one of Mickey D’s Shamrock (Can’t they get real rocks?) Shakes once & pooped green, which gave me quite a start until I connected the dots, or put two & two together.

Although I don’t think that calling someone a Cupcake or a Tiger Tail is an epic ice burn.

Damn it, McG. I was going to drop the Chocodile next.

Those shits are delicious.

But seriously: are we saying that Kate Winslet is fat now? Is that a thing? Or that she was fat? Is that really… is that a thing? Because, uh.

That reminds me of the series of animations somebody did a while back about the 101st Fighting Keyboarders – they voiced the “thank God George Bush is our president” bit like an Underpants Gnome, and I about vomited from laughing. I’ll have to find that.

…oh, yes, it was “The War of the Words.” Looks like the site is gone now, checking archive.org.

Also, since the late 1990s, Chocodiles are no longer sold on the East Coast of the United States. Hostess has only a few West Coast factories making them and to ensure the products’ freshness, Chocodiles are sold only on the West Coast.

The Coast is the most, ’cause we got FRESH Chocodiles! Suck it, Eastern Elitests!!1

Tiger Tail is, of course, a term of endearment
I could not possibly comment.

I can only assume that if all here are wallowing in nostalgia for the sweetened crap of their youth, or Kate Winslet, that we are somehow in a cyber assisted-living facility for dementia patients, drifting between consciousness & the real world, no longer sure if we are seven or 87.

Nurse? M. Bouffant keeps us all awake with his snoring. Can’t you give him more paraldehyde?

Fiendish thingy

This kind of fiendish thingy

Nurse? M. Bouffant keeps us all awake with his snoring.

Truth must be told: One (Or two, who’s counting?) exes ago I awoke to find said ex sleeping w/ her head at the foot of the bed. She explained that I was, indeed, keeping her from a sound sleep w/ my manly snoring.

Audio reinforcement. (Sadly, not the O. V.)

Oh dear, I have driven everyone away w/ my snoring & old person odor. But I just trimmed my eyebrows.

What this post needs is some cereal killers. Perhaps some sugar frosted Bloody Benders.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloody_Benders

“I have driven everyone away w/ my snoring & old person odor.”

The advantage of getting old is you can’t hear the snoring nor smell the smells.

Er, so I’ve heard.

Perhaps some sugar frosted Bloody Benders.

The cereal I thought was named in the worst taste was this stuff. I didn’t realize the cereal in its original form predated the military slang – but still, reintroducing it in 1987, they should have been aware of that.

Oh dear, I have driven everyone away w/ my snoring & old person odor.

That hard candy keeps calling me back.

Sorry, still trying to wrap my head around “eventually threaded their legendary grand guignol through the minds of Karl Marx, Vladimir Ilytch Lenin, Joseph Stalin and Mao Tse Tung.” I’m a huge fan of Grand Guignol, but I just gave up. Anybody get any further?

I must remark that if more movies featured Julianne Moore naked, bottom or top or both, movie attendance by certain zombies would increase somewhat.

Tiger Tail is, of course, a term of endearment
Further research reveals that neither “puma butt” nor “cougar queue” are acceptable substitutes. Also, I will apparently be sleeping in the lounge tonight.

The hard candy is so the aged/aging can watch people who still have their teeth eat stuff.

By “lounge,” do you mean living room/sitting room/parlor/what-not, or Cocktail Lounge?

All you fine folks embedding links?

Don’t bother because links from Substance and Smut have made me very very very averse to clicking anything linky on this site. Imma stayin in the boat.

Funny you should mention it, zr, & I’m not one to bitch (Much!) but my link to fun that a Zombie might even enjoy was just et by WP.

About the third time recently, & while the previous ones were probably a wise editing move by WP, or at least so trivial they weren’t worth the re-type, this is good (Jack T. Cthulhu, sort of. Also, a pdf. Does that matter anymore?) & claims not to have been online previously.

Will now tempt fate by linking to source.

M. Bouffant trusted Mick Farren with the Blink code?
This will not end well.

Wait a mini, what about the undeniably drug-inspired Freakies Cereal?

The Freakies were made up of seven creatures named Hamhose, Gargle, Cowmumble, Grumble, Goody-Goody, Snorkeldorf and the leader BossMoss.

Tell me this was developed by people on fresh air

What this post needs is some cereal killers. Perhaps some sugar frosted Bloody Benders.

Ah! This is where mah people are from. My great-granddad played cards with the Benders and was (according to legend, anyway) courting Kate until they disappeared due to being in trouble with the law and all.

KnightsinBlackSatin, oh my, you are in such big trouble for calling Kate Winslett fat. Get over here right this instant, ’cause I am going to spank your undoubtedly skinny ass from now till Christmas. Oof, you make me so mad. I will spank your skinny ass on the stairs, the ones that lead to the laundry room.

And what’s with all the breakfast cereal nostalgia? When I was a youngster, we ate whatever grain the chickens didn’t finish, with whatever milk we could squeeze out of the cow. And we were thankful. Demanding that our parents buy us a froofy breakfast cereal, or shoes, or a game? Beyond the pale blue event horizon.

Spoiled little bastards, the lot of you.

The Coast is the most, ’cause we got FRESH Chocodiles!

And you have In-N-Out Burgers damn you!

I’m now addicted to those things and I have to get one any time I go to California.

And you have In-N-Out Burgers damn you!

They actually have those in Utah now, but I haven’t dropped by. So I guess I get to count one culinary point.

And you have In-N-Out Burgers damn you!

It would be irresponsible not to speculate about Pinko Punko’s childhood.

Great stuff over a BJuice:

Ed Schultz just spent fifteen minutes talking about the party crashers, and actually said “What is one of them were a ninja? Obama could have been killed.”

“hamhose and gargle” Nothing veiled there at all.

Now, if it were Hamwallet, that’d be different.

Canging topics: It seems pretty clear to me that Tiger Woods was having an affair, his wife found out, went ballistic and attacked him with a golf club. He tried to escape, drove his getaway car, his wife smashed the back window out, and then she tried to hit his face on to the fairway. When the cops/ambulance showed up, the back window of his car was shattered and he was lying on the pavement semi-conscious with his wife saying “please help my husband.”

“I have no doubt that a pirate would have saved the day.”

Too bad he had that pirate prosecuted. Should have had him on ninja detail.

To get the most out of them you have to raise feral babies properly.

Major, I was going to lord it over you unfortunates E. of the Rockies w/ The Left Coast’s In-n-Out Urge, even Fatburger or Tommy’s, but restraint prevailed.

However, since you gladly admit your lack, here are some links to various iterations of the secret order menu, if you didn’t know about it.

From the In-N-Out (VPR?) secret menu:

Description: Mustard-cooked beef patty, additional pickles, extra secret sauce with grilled onions.

Get Hannity on the horn-time for a new ragegasm!

Pfft, these days In-n-Out has at least part of the ‘secret menu’ on their god damn website.

Not so veiled:

This strategy has so far worked great for the chain, but a major increase in popularity and cult status came from a mutated promotional campaign that started in the early 80’s. This was back when the company started producing bumper stickers emblazoned with its name and logo. These brightly colored stickers had “In-N-Out” printed on the top line, with “Burger” below that. Some creative soul cut the “B” and the last “R” from “Burger”, changing the word into “urge.” While many saw “In-N-Out Urge” as an innocuous statement reflecting a craving for a juicy Double-Double, others knew the message had a more sexual intent. In a short time In-N-Out was producing the most popular bumper sticker on the roads of Southern California.

As in.

part of the ’secret menu’ on their god damn website

No more secrecy (or privacy) in the digital age.

So to recap, we went in a round about way from talking about a Colon to In-N-Out. Do I got that straight.

I didn’t call Kate W fat any more than I called Mr. Rickman scrawny and weak.
But she is a buxom lass. Hardly ever moos.

Vanuatu PM forced out of electorate seat

The Prime Minister of Vanuatu, Edward Natapei has been forced out of parliament. Mr Natapei is currently in Trinidad and Tobago, attending the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting, and has not attended this week’s extraordinary sessions of parliament, called to debate the budget.
Speaker Maxim Carlot Korman says his office has not been informed of Mr Natapei’s absence, and under the law, missing three sessions consecutively without giving a reason, means a Vanuatu MP loses their seat.

My favorite bit is comment #48

I agree with #40. Any book that can be classified according to a political ideology is not a good novel, or it’s being misread. Reducing The Brothers Karamazov, for example, (a book complex enough to be a favorite of both the gay liberal playwright Tony Kushner and Laura Bush) to one theme and calling it “conservative” is just willfully dumbing down great literature. And praising trashy thrillers because of their politics is equally dumb.

Whereupon they spend 200 more comments doing just that.

In a parallel universe, where people love good movies and don’t have to cram a work into an ideological box before they give themselves permission to like it, I’mma gonna strongly recommend Charlie Kaufman’s Synecdoche, New York.
