Hello. We are gay, and completely not for the straights. We like sharing men only, men with men, how it should be. Replace are enture system with a gay only one, keeps a few breeders to make us offspring until we can grow them in tanks.

So, are you really Carlos Salami?

Oh, you have got to be—
I forgot. Always trust the shorter.

Basically, I sometimes feel like I have 16 squirrels in my brain running off in 16 different directions and Ritalin makes most of them sit down at their little desks and shut the hell up so I can think about what I need to think about.

Now I feel bad about the nym I chose this morning.

Interestingly, the comments over there are split between the people who want to be able to buy pseudoephedrine by the case and those who want to ban all conventional medicine.

Amy Alkon… Borderline?
Why, that is sooooo impossible!

So Amy’s shitmoat is filled with the half-eaten dead bodies of hobos she’s kidnapped from down by the Interstate?

Sadly No should investigate if Amy Alkon is actually Charlie Sheen.

Sudafed can raise your blood pressure. And considering how ANGRY wingnuts are all the time, I would, indeed, urge moderation.

So we have Ritalin to thank for Amy’s oeuvre?

If we ran out of Ritalin would she stop writing?

This is yet another version of the right wings “why do I have to go through the metal detector, I’m not a terrorist!” sense of entitlement.

I don’t like having to visit the friendly pharmacist to buy Claritin D, either. But then on the other hand, I’m glad LA Sheriffs department finally rousted the meth house down the road from my house.

I saw one of his movies. He played a pizza delivery guy.

All. One. Squirrel.

The fact is, I like dressing up as a squirrel.

We are the gays. We will add your technological and biological distinctiveness to our own. Resistance is futile.

Gary’s a furry? Unsurprising, but I pegged him as preferring a donkey fursuit.

Pegging the donkey fursuit, also too.

I pegged him as preferring a donkey fursuit.

I always suspected he’d enjoy taking it in the ass.

hey! not fair! why did you hide “her” adam’s apple ?

Gee, if only the government could help out with some kind of prescription drug coverage.

You load sixteen squirrels and what do you get
Another day older and deeper in shit
Saint Ronnie don’t you call me ’cause I can’t go
I owe my soul to the ritalin store

This woman has serious problems. I, for one, will not engage in piling on to this poor, wretched person. Also, her writing reminds me of my late, delusional sister.

I pegged him as preferring a donkey fursuit.

I do not know what you are speaking of.

From Newt’s twittertwaddle announcement:

“We Americans are going to have to talk together, work together and find solutions together and INSIST on imposing those solutions on those forces that don’t want to change.” SIEG HEIL!!!

“Basically […] I have 16 squirrels in my brain”.

That does explain a lot of her behavior.

So close and yet so far.

Squirrels and Kitteh kittehs

Why don’t you guys lay off that nice sweet lady? She is one of our best customers gives GREAT advice!

To be fair to whichever squirrel tapped that out, the gov’t Battle of Sudafed is one of the stupider skirmishes in the War on Fun. It’s not even that fun to have your sinuses dry out, it’s just more fun than not breathing.

It’s fun to eat lots of pseudophedrine. And yes, the government’s latest crusade, which, here in Washington, involves entering your name and personal information into a database, sucks much balls.

I’m perfectly confident, however, that said database will not be used for any purpose other than making sure I’m not buying enough phed to actually make some meth. There’s no way the govt would abuse this data collection.

True, but there is a reason that stuff was prescription-only back in the 1970s. There really should be a great big warning label about what it will do to your blood pressure.

But beyond that, I’m confused. I still see both generic and brand-name Sudafed in the local pharmacy. I don’t buy any, because I prefer sneezing to a stroke. But what is the big deal about getting it from behind a counter?

“We Americans are going to have to talk together, work together and find solutions together and INSIST on imposing those solutions on those forces that don’t want to change.”

Offer not valid for gays, women, people needing health care, poor people, people who aren’t rabidly anti-tax, people who aren’t rabidly pro-“defense” spending, people who think corporations should pay anything in taxes, people who think privatizing gains and socializing losses is the worst sort of socialism possible, etc.

Seriously, isn’t that what those motherfuckers always call “ramming stuff down our throats?”

Anybody catch the adoring Matt Bai article comparing Gingrich to Charles De Gaulle, because they were both in the political wilderness for a little while but then De Gaulle came back to save his republic just like Gingrich is about too?

A Balloon Juicer gave it a a long debunking, concluding with “Except for the genuine patriotism, bravery in the face of danger, personal honesty, family loyalty, and worldwide impact of de Gaulle’s career, he and Newt are really just about the same.”

The Sudafed you see on the shelves is “Sudafed PE”, which contains no Pseudoephedrine (which is weird, since the name “Sudafed” kind of implies that it DOES.) It’s kind of like the New Coke of nasal decongestants.

But it’s OK, Amy Arnold! You can still buy a couple cases of Vicks Inhalers and boil down the fiber plugs inside to get PURE METH.

(Not that I would know anything about THAT, mind you.)

And you can always put the squirrels to work digging your shit moats!

(I don’t post here as much as I used to, but I didn’t want to be left out of DA MOB.)

Sorry you were picked last, kid. Have an extra tater tot.

yay. Lunch Lady is back!

Reminds of the Freak Brothers issue when Fat Freddy pretended to be ADD to get Ritalin.

Punchline: “We don’t use that here, we use elephant tranquilizers”

If only, if only….

She never has Brain Hot Dish on the menu though.

This same warning doesn’t occur on any other drug, and some of the illicit ones raise blood pressure even further than this crap. It’s not about getting it from behind a counter, it’s that it’s still “over the counter”, except that they copy your driver’s license number, name, address, etc and record it in a book. They conveniently don’t know where the information goes from there.

it’s that it’s still “over the counter”, except that they copy your driver’s license number, name, address, etc and record it in a book.

Ah, I did not know that (as I said, the stuff would likely kill me). That is bad.

Ah, I did not know that (as I said, the stuff would likely kill me). That is bad.

What prompted the whole thing was the actual fact that it’s an important component of meth. So meth manufacturers were actually walking into drugstores and buying cases of this shit at a time.

So now the drug dealers walk into the pharmacies and NO SHIT, hop over the pharmacy counter and just grab what they want. I live near a Walgreens that has been robbed this way at least 3 times in the last 18 months. One of these times, the little scumbag cunt actually punched a little tiny female pharmacist for not getting out of his way quickly enough.

So there’s some method to the madness, but as with every other attempt by the government to fix a drug problem, they’ve managed to do nothing more than build a constitutionally questionable database of people who have colds and endanger the lives of employees at pharmacies/drugstores.

See, those supergeniuses who write drug policy still think they can legislate away the drug problem. This time it will work!

That’s my take on the situation, anyway.

I first thought that it was a good thing for Newt to run, because his utter defeat might be the only thing to humiliate him enough to get him off the national stage. But, thanks to FoxNews, that only seems to happen to Democrats (see Bradley, Bill).

Of course an egomaniac like Newt will have his excuses lined up. The most likely: “America was not ready to embrace the greatness that I offered.”

LittlePig, I bet you know the answer to this: “What’s it mean, Granpa?”

“America was not ready to embrace the greatness that I offered.”

America was in a hospital with cancer at the time.

Silly me, hospitals can’t get cancer! You know what I meant. Jerks.

She’s upset because she can only get 1 month of ritalin at a time because of the gummint?

Well, I can only get 1 month of my nasal steroid for my allergies at a time unless my pharmacist begs and pleads with the insurance company … and it has nothing to do with nasal steroids being made from the same stuff as is used to make illicit drugs. It’s that my insurance company only wants to pay for one month’s worth of drugs at a time.

Conservatives are worried about rationing of health care? Well, perhaps instead of blaming the war on drugs or some such (and if you like drugs so much Ms. Alkon … why not just support legalizing them all? I suspect conservatives who get upset at Mucinex-D being behind the counter while supporting high penalties for crack cocaine use may have other motivations for which drugs they think should be illegal and which ones not? hmmm …) — Ms. Alkon should realize that some of her lack of access to health care is because, like it or not, health care is already rationed in this country.

So why not just make it transparent, controlled by we the people and not for profit companies and have real health care reform?

BTW, did you catch the justification of steroid use in baseball?

Martin Seligman talks about how ridiculous it is that psychology and psychiatry are internal medicine is largely targeted to “curing” people who are sick, and not helping functioning, productive people overpaid lugheads who can hit a ball with a bat become even higher functioning and more productive get backne and ‘roid rage — or as Seligman puts it in his terrific new book, to Flourish.

I’m all for people who need help getting the help they need, but it seems that Amy “Drugs are Fun” Alkon is treading on some very interesting territory here. Since when did the political right (outside of P.J. O’Rourke) become pro-drugs?

It’s a big building with patients, but that’s not important right now.

Hey, it’s an Amy Alkon celebration — and a Malaclypse celebration too! Thanks for that confirmation, bro!! ‘Malaclypse, Lawyers, Guns and Money Troll, Confirms Identity of Tintin at Sadly No! — Carl Salonen, the ‘Young & Hung’ Trademark Holder, Wow!’.

ffft. stupid intermediate posters. I was talking to Mal, and referencing teh Donalde.

I realize every body responds differently to different medicines, but I gotta wonder whether any of these folks whining about sudafed being behind the counter have even bothered to try any of the other decongestants.

As far as my personal physiology goes, sudafed sucks. I suppose it works; if I’ve got a stuffy nose and take sudafed, I’m no longer congested. Instead, I’ve got rivers of snot freely flowing and I have to wipe my nose every 15 seconds if I don’t want to be sitting in a puddle. That much kleenex-nose contact leads to a horrendously painful chapped nose within a couple hours. I prefer the decongestants that actually dry up the snot, not just get it flowing

Any TRUE conservative knows liberals have no soul of any kind. Much like zombies.

I didn’t use pseudophedrine for a decongestant. I abused it like we all do with alcohol and weed and cocaine and stuff.

The other ones just don’t get the goddamn job done. Also, when I actually DID have a cold, the best thing for it was a blast of speed so that I could get something done before passing out.

Did you know that Captain Kangaroo was never in the military? this outrages me for some reason.

I never would have caught it if you hadn’t made it up. Alkon’s mischaracterization of Seligman’s work filtered through your imagination and then mischaracterized again by a third party would be pretty funny, though. Maybe someone will take a crack at it.

Silly Sadlynaughts! You think that your Poop and your Penis are sooooooo clever. Well, I will have you know that my Poop is humorous and my Penis is downright hilarious.

Tintin ISREAL!

Tintin ISREAL!

Thought the whole point was that he wasn’t?

Donny, you’re out of your element.

Pwning preemptively.

Don’t forget: Lady Gaga isn’t really a lady.

I’m still hoping that the target of all this spittle foam (Not Tintin) is going to rise to the occasion from behind his employer’s firewall and give the Donalde a piece of his mind.

And Amy? When life gives you squirrels make Brunswick stew.

Lord Buckley? Nope.

Mmm, drugs.

After the “Carrying Surplus Salami* With Me Everywhere I Go” revelation, snorting Mucinex would actually be sort of tame.

Also, in this fast-changing world, it’s good to know that even after his numerous instances of royally fucking the pooch in public to the mirth & merriment of one & all, Donalde still has less skepicism than a Holy Roller at a revival meeting. “It MUST be true! It’s right there on the Internets! Bwahahahaha! GOTCHA LIBS!”

Doesn’t he realize that my slightly-used Brooklyn Bridge offer is still (miraculously) available?

So she’s fine but wants to take an “addictive, abusable” drug because she likes the way it makes her feel… she also either ignored or failed to notice “higher demand” listed in news articles as one of the causes of the shortage.

Also I love how she turns someone’s suggestion to see if she can get it in France while she’s there into some sort of “France is perfect” statement. “You can get codeine OTC in the UK” “how dare you imply British health care is perfect and soooo much better than the US system I just wrote a whole column bitching about!” Really, if she’s on methylphenidate now, it’s not helping her concentrate.

Well, cats DO like me but I guess calling it worship would be going too far…

I feel it necessary to confirm at this time that I, and not Malcolm X, am Obama’s real father. I, not Bill Ayers, wrote Obama’s autobiography. Finally, I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die. Now that Donalde’s scrutiny is upon me, I know I can no longer hide the truth.

I never would have caught it if you hadn’t made it up. Alkon’s mischaracterization of Seligman’s work filtered through your imagination and then mischaracterized again by a third party would be pretty funny, though. Maybe someone will take a crack at it. – Slim Charles

I must confess that I am not familiar with Seligman’s work to know whether Alkon mischaracterized it. But Sadly, No! is a place to make the sort of leap I did in terms of my “mis”characterization of Alkon’s writing. And, anyway, I really don’t think I made that much of a leap … did I?

I am a-ok with taking medication not only to cure or manage major disease but also to feel better (of course — I take plenty of antihistamines to be functional during allergy season, I smoke about pipe of tobacco a week, drink about a glass of wine/beer a day, have some or other relaxing tisane every night, and don’t even ask about my caffeine and theobromine addictions … so I am perfectly down with taking drugs to feel better than I otherwise would, even if I am a functional person … functionality of DAS debated by his wife, daughter, brother, etc.). But the way Alkon states it, how does what she claims ritalin does differ from what performance enhancing drugs do in sports?

I like to kill time then make a bacon, lettuce & time sandwich.

“Every time I think about you, I pwn myself”

I agree that it’s unnatural to sit in front of a computer all day, and that drugs help. But I’d prefer a society where people (including children) best-suited to varied lives can more easily lead them. I have little idea what such a society would look like.

Every day I kick myself for not getting more done, but then I remember that my situation is absurd, excepting a very fine marriage.

I have not seen or taken meth in over 18 years, but I recall feeling like I could finally live up to my own expectations, and societal ones as I understood them. Work all day, lightning-fast promotion, practice guitar all night and/or play a gig, socialize, crash.

The only connection I will make to the ADD/ritalin topic is that my meth intake was always well below that of my Coachella Valley peers, and had little to do with “partying.” But in the not-so-long run, I was still screwed six ways to Sunday.

I heard you can only get hand-smallening done in Thailand.

drink about a glass of wine/beer a day

hey, me too!

..um, our definitions of “glass” could differ.

Blow makes me a better driver, smack and weed make me a better musician, and speed helps me get my house really clean. These arguments have not affected national drug policy.

Man Hands 2: The Smallening

I call fake Spartacus. Insufficient strappy sandalry.

But the way Alkon states it, how does what she claims ritalin does differ from what performance enhancing drugs do in sports?

Because writing an advice column really isn’t all that difficult, mentally or physically. If you have to take the equivalence of a “performing enhancing drug” to pound out 900 words about how you’re smarter than the next jagoff not in spite of you’re own plethora of horrifically dunderheaded mistakes in the steering of your life’s metaphorical ship but because of said existential gafs, you’re doing something horribly wrong.

“I heard you can only get hand-smallening done in Thailand.”

I heard Bangkok makes your right hand bigger and may also cause blindness.

Has anyone checked in at Tintin’s blog lately? Aaah, never mind, I’ll do it myself. I mean, there’s probably a lot evidence that a certain failed NY thespian is in fact Tintin at his blog because so many Sadlies keep calling him that and who knows Tintin better than anyone?

Awfuk.

One hand makes you bigger
And one hand makes you small
And the one that momma jerks with
Doesn’t do anything at all
Go ask Amy
When you’re jerking small

Captain Beefheart (RIP) wrote the best-ever song about small hands. Pardon me if I quote it at length:

Hoy hoy
When Big Joan comes out
Her arms are too small
Her head like a ball
She tied off her horse
and galloped off into the moonbeams
She pulled up her blouse
and compared her navel to the moon
I dig my life for a while
When Big Joan sets up
Her hands are too small
She’s too fat to go out in the daylight
So she rolls around all night
I’m just sorta thread
With a drooped body
I’ll set up with ya Big Joan
I’m too fat to go out in the daylight
I’ll stay up all night
I won’t droop if you
Won’t talk about your
Hands being too small
You know something’s happening
Or you wouldn’t of come out like ya did
She ain’t built for going naked
So she can’t wear any new clothes
Or go to the beach
They laugh at her body
Cause her hands are too small

Typically, his (The Target’s) current post is about pole dancing olympics. If that doesn’t sound like Tintin I don’t know what does.

The only thing that ever worked on my allergies was Seldane before the FDA took it off the market. So it killed a bunch of people with really inconvenient heart attacks, so what? Whiners! Why should MY nose run?

“I heard Bangkok makes your right hand bigger and may also cause blindness.”

I LOLed

El M – yeah, needs more comments like the one someone who shall go unnamed just left. I dunno if salting the mine at this point is gonna make any difference but I’m hoping for additional LULZ to result.

When I’m typin’ I strut my stuff, man I’m so strung out
I’m high as a kite I just might stop to chew you out

Let me go on like a shitmoat in the sun,
Let me go on big hands I know you’re the one…

When Big Joan comes out

Joan Holloway?

So it killed a bunch of people with really inconvenient heart attacks,

to be fair, it cured their sinus problems.

The real problems will start when the government bans female hormones.

BTW, Donalde, it surprises me that you snort at Carl Salonen’s favorite movies (ones I was in). We wouldn’t think poorly of you for saying your favorite books were the ones you published.

Excuse me? Oh, never mind.

Why do all you tiny turds at Sadly, No! keep rattling me? I’m gonna get some more of my sycophants to stalk you tiny turds!

Ever notice how fucking hard wingnuts try to ‘out’ anonymous lefty bloggers so they can send their bully boy asshole flying monkeys around to try to silence them through intimidation and violence? And how much these same “tough guys” have to censor their own blogs lest an opinion to the left of von Ribbentrop gets through? Meanwhile, no one here has ever bothered to censor anyone nor out the pet wingnuts like Gary and Urban Meyer?

Joan Holloway?

mmmmmmmm…

to be fair, it cured their sinus problems.

All their other problems too. My Seldane, plz!

Yes, it’s true. I like to name names for my friends in law enforcement. For example, from my latest blog entry:

“I tried cocaine once in my life (in 1995 with Roy Walford at the Chelsea hotel)”

This also lets you know that I am a hipster, since I understand that the Chelsea hotel is a “hipster hangout”, whatever that is.

Wait, one of my sycophants just informed me that the Chelsea hotel hasn’t been “cool” since, like, 1985.

Meanwhile, no one here has ever bothered to censor anyone nor out the pet wingnuts like Gary and Urban Meyer?

While most of us intellectually appreciate the laissez faire attitude round here, It does create the potential to become annoying from time to time. Remember the punk rock hater guy? I know it made a few good old folks find cleaner corners of the intertubas to hang out in.

Awwww ain’t I cute? Better watch your fingers missy.

Just right. They NEVER have had their shots.

THAT is hilarious.

Since I am all about accreditation today, stole that from Will Durst.

Remember the punk rock hater guy?

He was a laugh riot, as long as you understood he was just a 10 year old kid living in his Uncle Molester’s basement.

Isnt the coach a parody troll? I always thought he waS trying to be funny, and sometimes succeeding.

I Am <pphhhtttthhhhhh> Fartacus!

(just because it was lonely at the end of the dead thread)

Isnt the coach a parody troll?

NOOOOO!!!!! Don’t TELL me that!

While most of us intellectually appreciate the laissez faire attitude round here, It does create the potential to become annoying from time to time. Remember the punk rock hater guy? I know it made a few good old folks find cleaner corners of the intertubas to hang out in.

Back when Steve the White Supremacist was here a lot, I left for a while. But I missed it. Generally, I think the people here defend themselves against trolls better than moderators would.

Isnt the coach a parody troll?

I always thought so.

I thought The Fule eventually got banned?

Wait, one of my sycophants just informed me that the Chelsea hotel hasn’t been “cool” since, like, 1985.

*chuckles*

Well, back then they didn’t bitch if you put your own hasp and padlock on the closet.

I know it made a few good old folks find cleaner corners of the intertubas to hang out in.

I think that when 60%+ of the posts were from the Target and his obsessions it cleaned a lot of the old timers out.

Isnt the coach a parody troll?

I used to think so, but he’s a) too tedious by half and b) occasionally follows up to responses to his cool coach-isms with very non-badoody language. Unless he’s just that good.

I don’t post here often, but what with the determination of these clever, Holmes-like conservatives to out all the lefty posters, I must come clean. “Jacob Singer” is the title character of the film Jacob’s Ladder, played by Tim Robbins.

My real name is Arthur “Two Sheds” Jackson.

Whew. That’s a weight off my shoulders.

“I’ll give you my Nair™ when you pry it from my cold, dead hands!”

That script that allowed us to just not see certain idiots was useful. That was back when there was a stable of writers around here putting up 4-6 stories a day.

But the trolls were welcome because we would play pinata with them…

….the Target….

jeez, is that one gonna stick? I suppose I’ll get blamed for that one too.

Arnold’s got it all wrong! Tintin is really a big bald guy from Yonkers.

My last contact with the Chelsea was in the 90’s sometime when I met a Japanese artist whose specialty was spray-painting Pollack like abstracts on down parkas. They were remarkably good, I would have had him do one for me. “How do I find you?” “I live at the Chelsea.”

{Goons} And I never saw him again.{/Goons}

Yes, ZRM, you will.

You know, Zombie.

an innocent bystander until you have pity on them!”

well, there’s the problem. In this case, the bystander wasn’t innocent OR pitiable.

I love the Cool Coach. He is a responsive troll. When he first started out he was doing this until it was pointed out that the cutting and pasting was really just breaking up a spectacularly annoying trolling style. Now he keeps it short and sweet and he’s out.

sure, but I don’t see any “Badoodle-boo-yeah!” in that screed, Substance.

It would be irresponsible not to speculate.

Ummm, that is the real Urban Meyer who posts here. I can totally tell.

Cool Coach is better some times than others, but the fact is I’ve always had a soft spot in my brain for Gary Ruppert.

Gary Ruppert also has a soft spot in his brain. It’s called his brain.

Ba-dum-ch!

Thank you. Thank you. I’ll be here all week. Try the veal, everybody. Heh heh, just kiddin’.

Where the f*ck did Gary go? I recall our repartee quite fondly.

Wait, that didn’t make any sense.

Joke fail.

Arthur “Two Sheds” Jackson

Yeah!!!
Duets with Carl ‘Slim’ Salonen on harp!!!
That was the stuff.

I’ll be damned. I always assumed Coach was a parody troll. His whole shtick seemed so silly and over the top. Learn something new…

I always assumed Coach was a parody troll.

I don’t think anything said here prevents him from being one…

Where the f*ck did Gary go? I recall our repartee quite fondly.

The fact is, I’ve been in several of the recent threads. I’m pals with Amy, so I often show up when she gets mentioned. The fact is, I’m like Meade to her Althouse.

Wait, that didn’t make any sense.

I laughed.

Shalom, gentlemen.

I think that when 60%+ of the posts were from the Target and his obsessions it cleaned a lot of the old timers out.

A source of irony in this is that The Target received a talking to for posting address details here.

“Brain, brain, brain! Always Brain! What is Brain?”

Say what you will, you didn’t know about the patented down on the upstroke technique anywhere but here. So there’s that.

The fact is, I’m like Meade to her Althouse.

you start talking about your sex life with Arnold and I will hunt you down and kill you.

the patented down on the upstroke technique anywhere but here.

frankly, I am kind of surprised nobody ever did a t-shirt for that one.

Where the f*ck did Gary go?

I know he’s here somewhere! My sources never lie! Where the fuck is my god-damned Ritalin! Can’t you all be quiet while I look for my Ritalin?

Well, since this has become Old Troll Reminiscence Post, Imma gonna go draw some signage….

“If I’d Known It Was Going To Be This Kind of Party, I’d Have Stuck My Dick in the Mashed Potatoes.”

I always wondered where the Beastie Boys got that sample. Now I know. Chicken fucking also referenced in that routine.

Twice and at least one instance was after Alkon posted his info.

you start talking about your sex life with Arnold and I will hunt you down and kill you.

The fact is, while those liberal fascists at LGM deleted Meade’s lively and fascinating buttsex story, that I am a gentleman, and will not tell any of my adventures with Amy. Or with Arnold. I admit it can be confusing.

Does this make me The Marke?

F*ckin Saul.

Doesn’t EVERYBODY need drugs to function? Yikes!

I guess in reality I’m just a maladaptive & vindictive loser with a bunch of sycophants to reassure me that I’m really, like, cool & stuff.

Oh, so it’s just pathetic retard name-calling then?
Figures.

OOH, now we can talk about how much we hates teh zombees without a certain someone getting all up in our grills, because BOY do you have to use the high pressure hose to get out all the bits.

We were somewhere around Kaiser’s 24-hour pharmacy in the middle of the night on the edge of the desert when the Ritalin began to take hold. I remember saying something like “I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive….” And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge squirrels, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Las Vegas. And a voice was screaming: “I’d like to ask my shrink about whether this stuff is safe for me when I see him in June, but I’m kind of afraid that it’ll flag me as some druggie when I just want to put more time into writing my book and less time into trying to catch the squirrels in my head and shove them into their little seats.”

He started writing poetry. Unforgivable.

Poetry hasn’t been the same since laudanum got banned. OMG ALKON IS RIGHT!

what a whiner. amy, darling, if you are so distressed by the “time cost” of driving to the pharmacy, USE KAISER’S MAIL SERVICE. it is pure magic.

Would the Sadlygods mind changing the picture in the post to something more pleasant? This, perhaps?

Containing the squirrels.

He started writing poetry. Unforgivable

Poets I mostly forgive. Mimes, spray silver human statues and people that play the spoons and/or washboard not so much.

Fuckin’ squirrels.

Christ, bad enough that I have sixteen squirrels in my head, but now they start fucking! Christ on a fucking cracker, make it fucking stop! God-damn liberal nanny-staters cutting my pseudoephedine from 120 mg to 60! I spoke to my doctor ex-boyfriend a few weeks ago (he called on his way to Africa) and he said he’d look up pseudoephedrine for me when he gets back. I’m sure he needs to look up common, over-the-counter meds, and that was in no was an excuse to get away from me. If I’m lucky, I’ll run into somebody chatty at some cocktail party who’s really versed in this. The pseudoephedrine seems to really increase my focus when I’m writing. I can even take a little less Ritalin if I take it, but I’m afraid to take it every day. I’m not some druggie, I just want to put more time into writing my book and less time into trying to catch the squirrels in my head and shove them into their little seats.

Crazy that it’s come to this. Now fetch my fucking Ritalin, and nobody needs to get hurt.

Alas, there is no convenient picture of Palin and Alkon together on GIS.

The world is a weaker place for my inability to visually support my “Moose and Squirrel” pun.

George Will:

The hysteria and hyperbole about Ryan’s plan arise, in part, from a poverty of today’s liberal imagination, an inability to think beyond the straight-line continuation of programs from the second and third quarters of the last century. It is odd that “progressives,” as liberals now wish to be called, have such a constricted notion of the possibilities of progress.

It’s odd that “conservatives” as maniacs now wish to be called, have such a constricted notion of the possibilities of conservatism.

Alas, there is no convenient picture of Palin and Alkon together on GIS.

Yes, too bad, but can you find a picture of Karen Gillan in glasses?

I ask because a friend of mine…

OT, but sorta squirrely because it has to do with the GOP… The NYT gathered up 6 political analysts and asked them whom they would like to see in the 2012 race. The results:

Linda Chavez, identified as “former Reagan official” suggests John Kyl. Ramesh Ponnuru, Senior Editor of National Review, gets a tingle down his leg for Jeb Bush. John J. Pitney, Jr. of Claremont McKenna College suggests it’s too late for add-on candidates. Peter Wehner, of the “Ethics and Public Policy Center,” wants the antithesis of Obama and comes up with 2 possibilities, Paul Ryan and Mitch Daniels. Fergus Cullen, former NH G.O.P Chairman, wants a mainstream alternative and comes out in favor of Jon Huntsman or Mitch Daniels. Dan Schnur of USC says prospective candidates should avoid the siren call, not run, and hone their skills for future elections.

Not a whiff of flop sweat in any of that, no sirree…

a poverty of today’s liberal imagination,

George effing Will needs to look at some of Smut’s woodcuts. Poverty of the imagination, I think not!

OOOPS…

I still remember the 1970s:

But the series took an unexpected plunge in popularity with The U.S. of Archie made in 1974. Designed as a mingling of history with entertainment, it found the gang going back in time in such plots as working with Harriet Tubman on the Underground Railroad for slaves during the 1800s. Such serious concerns were off-kilter for the normally light series, and it disappeared from Saturday mornings in 1975. Its last season on CBS consisted of U. S. of Archie repeats. NBC tried repeats of earlier shows in 1977 under the ride The Bang-Shang Lalapalooza Show, but it flopped too.

A.) yes, I saw the vid

B.) shut up, exford! you will not ruin go-mo for me.

Holy smokes. That lady with the awesome purple glasses must be wearing about 20 coats of mascara or 10 rows of false lashes. I’m surprised her eyelids can hold them up!

“It’s odd that ‘conservatives’ as maniacs now wish to be called, have such a constricted notion of the possibilities of conservatism.”–Substance McGravitas

Nice work there… It’s so wierd to watch people who love the words “innovation” and “entrepreneurialism” fall back on the same two or three answers to everything. Feels like a certain episode of Star Trek (Kirk to debased morons: “Among my people we carry many such words as these…”) or watching a cargo cult in action.

Creativity– a process in which Galtian supermen pay so-called “creative types” to seemingly think and make stuff. The payment works as speech to communicate the essence of the creative product to what are essentially tools or automata.

Well, I dunno. It’s lunchtime.

Time travel Archie sure wasn’t no “Sigmund and the Sea Monsters” that’s for sure!

Rofl!

Also,

“Sid and Marty Kroft were genuises. Giants among men.”

This goes without saying. Just saying.

Curious that Huckster’s vid mentions Iran and the hostages without delving into the bits about Reagan asking Iran to keep them until after the election so he could use them as political fodder and how he then went and flagrantly broke God knows how many laws selling them arms to fund slush funds for Latin American murder squads.

Whoopsie! Musta forgot that part.

Also, too, how in teh awful 70s the mentally ill were actually treated rather than chucked to the curb, homeless.

Etc.

Fuck.

I think they did a lot of acid also. It comes across in their work.

I meant Sid & Marty Croft but the statement may also apply to the Reagon administration also. (But actually, not really)

First squirrels, now talking fucking bongs? What the hell is wrong with everybody? What can’t I get a little Ritalin and psuedoephedrine (120 mg, not 60 mg, thank you very fucking much). Why can’t everybody just be quiet?

Hey, the squirrels in MY head deserve a voice too, Amy.

You SHUSH, Talking Bong.

Ha ha HHAAAHHAAA

You’re forgiven for beating me to the Chowder Israel joke at T&U’s blog.

And why does it say I am posting too much? Why are the liberals keeping me from my freedom? Why won’t my doctor ex-boyfriend call me back to tell me about pseudoephedrine?

Hey, the squirrels in MY head deserve a voice too, Amy.

This is about me. What don’t you understand about that? I was inconvenienced in a pharmacy, even though I’m white and smell nice!

It will just rise again.

BUT IN A DIFFERENT, MORE DISGUSTING FORM.

OK—I’m going to post this before reading the whole thread.

I’ve got hay fever. When Actifed was still a prescription drug, the doctor would give me a batch in the spring and that would do it for the year. So lately I was buying Actifed in the drug store and it worked a treat. Then I tried Sudafed—no effect, zip, nada. “WTF? Isn’t it the same stuff?”

Turns out it’s not. Sudafed was nothing but pseudoephedrine—or whatever they’ve replaced it with. Actifed has another ingredient called triprolidine. Since Actifed is like a miracle drug for me, and Sudafed is absolutely ineffective, I can only assume it’s the triprolidine that’s doing the job. Does anybody know if you can buy triprolidine anywhere by itself? I don’t need pseudoephedrine or its substitute and my blood pressure doesn’t need any enhancement, thank you very much.

Now I’ll go back and read the thread.

But at least I can get the fuck away from Blooger.

Why can’t everybody just be quiet?

THE INTERNETS ARE TOO NOISY TODAY.

Methinks the talking bong was actually from a Mr. Show episode lampooning the Croft brothers.

It all makes sense now. She was completely fucked up on over-the-counter cold medecine when she went Carl Salonen on Tintin.

OT: Credit where it’s due. There’s a lot not to like about McCain, but he stepped right up and took on the torture apologists. And that’s a good thing.

This upside-downer’s life is empty & little, not sad & little. Harroomph!

people who hate Bloofer can click my name.

Or not. Zombies are pretty easy going on this stuff.

Earlier I accused republicans of not being creative, and now I have to apologize. Texas is a true social laboratory. “The [Formula One] motorsport franchise left the U.S. four years ago because of low attendance,” but:

“As state faces deep cuts [esp. to education] Texas commits $250 million of taxpayer money to auto racing”
http://thinkprogress.org/2011/05/12/texas-f-1-racing/

This is the epitome of thinking ahead. When the U.S. is a post-apocalyptic Car Wars hellscape, Texans will rule the roost as the Maddest of Maxes. Sure, they’ll be illiterate, but in that regard they’ll have had a decades-long head start. Just try creating an oral culture on the fly while competing with fifth-generation Texas neoprimitives for gas and ass. I dare ya.

Whale Chowder is disturbingly even handed.

of course, I console myself with the knowledge that during the heat of a campaign, McCain would be all:

“Shrink, I want to kill. I mean, I wanna, I
wanna kill. Kill. I wanna, I wanna see, I wanna see blood and gore and
guts and veins in my teeth. Eat dead burnt bodies. I mean kill, Kill,
KILL, KILL.” And I started jumpin up and down yelling, “KILL, KILL,” and
he started jumpin up and down with me and we was both jumping up and down
yelling, “KILL, KILL.” And the sargent came over, pinned a medal on me,
sent me down the hall, said, “You’re our boy.”

OK, Alice Arlo.

ZRM, we don’t want any hangin’s.

Ofuck, I just realized…ZRM is Arlo Guthrie!!!11#1!!

Amazon reviews: Is(rael) Carl/Tintin also Newt Gingrich?

OT: Credit where it’s due. There’s a lot not to like about McCain, but he stepped right up and took on the torture apologists. And that’s a good thing.

Funny how one of these chickenhawk asshole neocons will actually argue with John McCain about the efficacy of torture.

There was a radio talk show host a while back–a right wing guy, who actually stepped up and got waterboarded. His response–unequivocal–that was TORTURE. I forget his name now, but I think if you’re going to approve or argue in favor of waterboarding or any other “enhanced” interrogation tactic, you should have to endure it yourself first.

Also, Super Mario.

Mario!

Also, too… “It’s full of stars.”

Mancow, I think.

Mancow, I think.

Yes! That was it. Kind of a douchy blowhard type. He admitted straight to Keith Olbermann’s face that it was torture. Dude gets ups for being a man about that, at least.

Christopher Hitchens also got waterboarded and wrote that it was torture. I think he went to Marine school so that he would get experts who wouldn’t kill him though. Of course he had been to boarding school in Engerland so was used to worse.

I am Carlos Santana!

I am also sick of not going 4 minutes without thinking about smoking. GRRRRRRRR.

Bupropion ( /bju??pro?.pi?.??n/ bew-proh-pee-ahn[1]; marketed as Wellbutrin, Zyban, Voxra, Budeprion, or Aplenzin; formerly known as amfebutamone[2]) is an atypical antidepressant and smoking cessation aid. The drug is a non-tricyclic antidepressant and differs from most commonly prescribed antidepressants such as SSRIs, as its primary pharmacological action is thought to be norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibition. It binds selectively to the dopamine transporter, but its behavioural effects have often been attributed to its inhibition of norepinephrine reuptake.[3][4] It also acts as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.[5]

Get some. I am.

Stop yerwhinging tsam. It’s easy to quit smoking. I’ve done it many times.

/staler than stale joke

It was called Wellbutrin whenprescribed as an antidepressant and Zyban when used on-label for smoking cessation. It is available in a generic and is cheap.

Also too, we would never have made it without the gum. Magic.

That is to say, if you ain’t using nicotine gum GO GET SOME RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

Yes, Wellbutrin.

Christopher Hitchens also got waterboarded and wrote that it was torture.

Sean Hannity promised he would undergo waterboarding and report back on its non-torture nature. That was about a year ago but no-one’s holding their breath, especially not him.

Ah yes, Mr. Paul, the founders of your country were against imaginary slavery (doctors being forced at gunpoint to treat patients they were apparently perfectly willing to see die in horrible pain) but absolutely in favour of real slavery (you know, forcing people to work and die for you because of the colour of their skin).

Tintin is Donna Summer

aka : LaDonna Adrian Gaine

I like to think of drugs as intoxiCANs.

“Everyone in the Family knows you’re lazy and a hypochondriac” commented my sister the other evening, in the middle of a conversation about other things.

I said “I’m depressed. Anti-depressants don’t work for me.” (or not for long. Wellbutrin is the best of them, but it makes me very irritable, apt to fly into a rage at nothing. What can I do? It’s humiliating… “lazy and hypochondriac” that stings. I wish I could take ritilin or whatever…anything that would work.

Donna Summer and Johnny Winter? Fake seasonal people

Tintin is Donna Noble.

What? I liked Donna.

What was the origin of attacking Amy Alkon on transphobic grounds? Or is the first rule of memes never ask for the origin?

KWillow — exercise and re-examining your diet might help.

(I know it sounds trite, and I don’t mean to make assumptions about you, and I certainly remember feeling miffed when a doctor and someone else told me that. But they were right. On the other hand, anti-depressants do something for me. It isn’t enough, but it’d be kindof creepy if it was.)

Hey, anybody remember the Golden Age of trolling, back when Annie Angel and her boyfriend (Sneaker something?) posted here? She was crazy like a shithouse rat.

What was the origin of attacking Amy Alkon on transphobic grounds?

I don’t know, but for what it is worth, I think it demeans us, not her. There is plenty to mock her for, so why bring transphobia into it?

/sets off soapbox; goes to finish coffee.

Obama should have let Petraeus announce Bin Laden’s death, as doing it himself gave the impression that he was in fact the one to order the mission “unduly elevated the status of Bin Laden to the entire world.”

Also, too Donald Trump hammering away at Obama was what forced him to act. And of course, we got him through torture which means this was all to Bush’s credit.

They’ve been grasping at straws for two weeks now, each more pathetic than the last.

tsam:

The main problem with libertarian drug legalization is that it must, by necessity, get wrapped up in the horrible stupid libertarian ideas that follow.

If they legalize drugs but defund any regulating agency (which they would kind of have to since they want to do that with every-fucking-thing else) that could check to make sure all those legal drugs aren’t being cut with bleach and okapi laxative; then all we’re really doing is replacing the shitty small-business drug dealers that fuck you over for large corporate drug dealers that fuck you over.

And really, we can get that now with the horrible shitty system of non-legal drugs, so no replacement is taking place at all!

The funniest bit about Arnold’s article that I…I mean, TinTin…linked to is how she blames the Democrats for the war on drugs.

As if.

What was the origin of attacking Amy Alkon on transphobic grounds?

Not, actually. We mocked her for dressing like a drag queen. That’s hardly homo- or transphobic. It’s a fashion statement.

Was anyone else actually pleasantly surprised to see Democratic senators actually calling those oil cartel CEO’s out on their claim that making them pay some taxes like a small business or ordinary citizen is unamerican?

I found it to be pretty awesome, personally. Not that it changes a motherfucking thing, I just kind of liked it.

How could I have missed a talking bong thread? Mine tends to speak chilango slang: “Ay, no mames buey!”

KWillow, sorry about your sister. Since I can’t find anything nice to say about her, here is video that is cute and cheering.

KWillow said, May 13, 2011 at 5:07

My experience has been similar to CRA’s. Regular exercise and eating properly, including getting plenty of Omega 3 via fish oil and via foods high in same, has elevated my mood to the point that I’ve been weened off anti-depressants over the past few years. But that’s just a start. Finding a therapist that didn’t indulge my formerly self pitying ways was necessary too. Sitting around stewing in past hurts in the guise of treating them truly is a mug’s game. She recommended some books by Martin Seligman such as “Learned Optimism,” and to help me prepare my son for his own probable future battle with the Quare Fella, “The Optimistic Child,” and they were very helpful. Finally, none of it was going to be of much use to me if I didn’t quit drinking and smoking pot so I did that too. Best of luck to you.

And ,DAS, if you’re still reading, sorry. I think I misinterpreted your comment up there. I guess you were making fun of Alkon rather than further distorting Seligman’s ideas. Which I know come under some criticism from other mental health professionals but I think they’re useful to a lot of depressives so my bad. What a shame that Alkon has planted her taint on him.

Har har. If you thought you published something on your Blogger™ web log yesterday, the 12th, you may be mistaken.

“I found it to be pretty awesome, personally. Not that it changes a motherfucking thing, I just kind of liked it.”

No, it was pretty great.

“What was the origin of attacking Amy Alkon on transphobic grounds? Or is the first rule of memes never ask for the origin?”

What Actor said and also, as someone recently explained, she once “accused” (is this the right use of scare quotes?) a commenter of being “a tranny” (I do not recall if she used that word).

Slim Charles — well put. In my case, I now know what needs to be done, but I am not doing much of it at the moment.

“Was anyone else actually pleasantly surprised to see Democratic senators actually calling those oil cartel CEO’s out on their claim that making them pay some taxes like a small business or ordinary citizen is unamerican?”

Oh yes, but what I can’t recall is this. Did a senator specifically call out these CEOs on the absurd claim that they’re being “singled out”? Such obvious gibberish is lying, though they may believe it. But tax codes that apply to their industry (not others) are in question. They were singled out for tax breaks.

she once “accused” (is this the right use of scare quotes?) a commenter of being “a tranny

I can see why no one would want to be compared to an engine block, but transmissions are sort of cool if you look at how they work.

Singled out for subsidies and tax exemptions, yes. Additionally, they’re way over the “too rich to pay taxes because paying taxes is for the little people” line.

The fact is, Amy completes me. She fills me and makes me whole, if you know what I mean. The fact is, I never met a woman like her here in the Heartland.

I tried Wellbutrin; it gave me the head crawls and completely destroyed my ability to concentrate. But now that I know tsam is in the middle of trying to quit, maybe I’ll give it a try too – unassisted, since I already know the meds aren’t going to work for me. Maybe it will be enough just to know that someone else is navigating the same hellscape I am at the same time.

As for the decongestants, I haven’t used one since my early 20s…the last time I took one it made my heart skip beats. Not a pleasant feeling. The only one that ever worked for me anyway was Dimetapp but having not taken it in 25 years now I have no idea if it’s even still around. OTOH, I figured out that most of the time when I have nasal congestion it’s more due to swelling in the mucosa than the snot itself, and have found I can get relief (and sinus drainage) through meditation. Might not work for others who have less propitious sinus architecture, but for me, relaxation + gravity + visualizing the dilation of the aperatures from sinus cavities to the back of the throat does the trick.

I was reading the Real Troll – Fake Troll discussion and decided to scroll down for a Comment.

Whenever a trollish sort of post shows up, I enjoy speculation and discussion by Sadlies right away. Real troll? Imposter? Person with a manic episode? (I had a wonderful discussion with Spengler over that odd person with an obsession with brackets.)

If this a real troll, the discussion will infuriate them, as we put his/her style, spelling, syntax, rhertoric, and argumentation under the microscope. If it is a fake troll–which I will admit to doing when I was a n00b–the critique can offer pointer for improving next time.

Also there is a delightful ‘piling on’ quality to S, N! troll ripostes. So I’m not irritated when a troll shows up. I think they are fun and spice up the thread. One of the things I so enjoy about reading S,N! is its roller-coaster quality.

Haven’t nearly caught up. The Sadlies are in FINE form today!

The fact is, I got to know Amy very well after that little incident. She is a lovely lady, and hardly ever throws things at me. The fact is, those squirrels are nasty rodents, as anybody in the Heartland would know.

Day 5 now. One thing that I can say is helping is an e-cig. It’s not making the cravings or the inappropriate and inexplicable mood swings go away, but it’s something I can do besides pigging out on popcorn or peanuts or something like that. It’s making a small difference. What’s REALLY helping is this. I pay $ 800.00/month in child support (see below for related story pertaining to anti-depressants and unintended consequences), and cigarettes here my blue state are $ 8.00/pack. I can drive to Idaho and save a couple of bucks a pack, but who does that? So after $800 in support, roughly $240 per month in cigarettes is just not helping my budget last as long as a pay period. I’m depriving my children of things they want and need, and depriving myself. I need new underwear and socks and jeans, but never seem to have the money for it, because I have to leave enough in my fucking account to make sure I had cigarettes until the next payday. Summary; This fucking disgusting, smelly, self destructive fucking depraved behavior is priority # 1 in my life. You can try to rationalize your way around it, but it’s true for every smoker. You may have a long stretch between paydays, be boiling ramen soup to eat, but you’ve got smokes, don’t you?

Re; Antidepressants. These agitate me beyond belief. I shouldn’t go into much more detail, but it was Chantix I was taking, and a murder or attempted murder nearly went down. Let’s just say that if you’re using any antidepressant, monitor your thoughts closely, be honest with yourself, and get help immediately if something disturbing is going on.

This is off topic, for which I feel a surprising amount of guilt, since the thread has stayed remarkably close to on-topic this far down, but I must vent.

For some time now, I have been seeing bumper stickers, red with white text and white maple leaf that say, “If you don’t stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front of them”. Now, that is bad enough, and begs a lot of important questions about what it means to “stand behind” the troops, and whether that should necessarily mean supporting every foolhardy mission some politician can dream up to endanger them, but I had gotten used to it.

Today, I saw a bumper sticker, almost identical, red with white text and white maple leaf that said, “If you don’t stand behind our troops we will gladly put you in front of them” (italics mine).

Am I being a fainting violet, or is the second really a significant escalation of the first? It just seems like an ugly, ugly thing to say.

Well, I’ve stolen a recipe I found here on S,N!, where you boil noodles, drain the noodles, put cheeze on the noodles, then pour the boiling water back over the noodles to melt the cheeze. It’s heavenly. Who knew gourmet victuals could be had for so little expense?

tsam:

Solidarity! I decided to leverage my smoke-free week in the hospital to quit smoking. I figured that was past the worst of the physical addiction, and I was so drugged up I scarely noticed it.

That was 54 days ago. But the pschological claws are so fuckin’ deep in me. Heavy caffiene-and-nicotine addiction associated with every job I’ve done: in the studio booth; in the Watch Office and the field; and, for thirty years of writing. I also want a smoke when I totally bored, e.g. long-distance Interstate driving. Alsorunder special stress, tension, nervousness.

All of this is wired into me. I sit and work at the machine…and I find myself automatically stopping and reaching for a smoke. It drives me nuts. I’m also cranky. (Well, crankier than normal…)

Anyway, tsam, Solidarity!

((Btw I chain-smoked for four decades. And like a chimney, too: Two packs a day for the last several years.))

After reading about it, I am inclined to side with the petitioners. I think that tax incremented financing is a way that companies encourage a race to the bottom. If that company is excited enough about a city that they want to build there, they ought to be willing to pay taxes in that city. That $11 million in financing the city is giving away could pay for a lot of municipal salaries and operating expenses.

Kick it’s ass, tsam.

FENWICK!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, not only are hospitals great places to shed some pounds, also ripe for shunning the weed. Recovering from triple bypass surgery is a great cessation strategy.

That $11 million in financing the city is giving away could pay for a lot of municipal salaries and operating expenses.

Good point, Helmut.

Except that the factory isn’t going to be in Wilsonville, so the $11 million in tax breaks on the hypothetical taxes the company could owe will not in fact be paying for municipal salaries and operating expenses.

Total economic benefit to city w/ plant, net of tax incentives: 300+ M$ over ten years. W/o plant, less than zero – those 500 unemployed people are stealing government services.

” Let’s just say that if you’re using any antidepressant, monitor your thoughts closely, be honest with yourself, and get help immediately if something disturbing is going on.” — tsam

Double-down on that!

Went through four anti-depressants without any benefits (one had such nasty side-effects I refused to take it). In the ward, they hit on an antidepressant with some benefits; I’ve been on it for a decade. Several years ago, the prescribing physician added a mood stabilizer; the combination of the two has been very effective in my case,

Also too, there’s a difference between “encouraging a race to the bottom” and winning competitive bidding contracts to build your industrial economic base. You don’t want to compete? Fine, you don’t get the business.

Thanks those who pointed out the origin.

Still a bit silly in my opinion (I know, what a crime), not to mention problematic, but I can see why it became a meme.

And after amazing detective work like that, I can see why Donaldisreal felt she was a true genius able to divine Tintin’s true identity.

I suppose we should just be grateful that she didn’t just go on a rant about how Tintin was actually Asterix.

If I was feeling pissy I would look up the foreclosure rate in Wilsonville and environs.

Nitnit is Tintin! (backwards)

Or simply say something about expenses versus capital investment. But I’m not pissy.

Tintin is too tall to be Asterix. He may be Obelix.

Hey Fenwick, hope you’re well.

I tried giving up with the gum. No good for me. Got me so wound up that I had to smoke. But, about nine or ten weeks ago I got the flu pretty bad, and was easily able to avoid smoking while having a throat like sandpaper and a chest like a.. one of those squeezy.. accordion.

After I got over the flu I was able to stay off the smokes, so it was an unintentional Cold-Turkey method for me.

But before that, I had made a conscious effort to cut down. Rationing helped: I made a deal with myself to set a limit of x cigarettes per day, no more. Then I gradually decreased the ration.

OMG! xiretsA! IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!

Zigacktly!

Usually the first of the season peaches are not the best. This year may be different (lots of chill hours, hot, dry spring); the two pecks I bought yesterday are superb. Big pot of peach chutney simmering away now.

Re: nicotine. I encourage everyone I know that smokes to quit since I watched a good friend put in the ground after lung cancer hemorrhage. My solution is swedish snus (don’t buy the US branded shite). No spit, solid nicotine ingestion, use anywhere convenience. With most bars and music venues smoke-free snus is popular with musicians. If you want to quit though do it. I find days 9 through 11 to be the worst but YMMV. Good luck.

I can’t be bothered to check Le Donalde’s site. Has he figured it out yet? Or perhaps he’s doubling and quadrupling down on teh st00pit?

That was 54 days ago. But the pschological claws are so fuckin’ deep in me. Heavy caffiene-and-nicotine addiction associated with every job I’ve done: in the studio booth; in the Watch Office and the field; and, for thirty years of writing. I also want a smoke when I totally bored, e.g. long-distance Interstate driving. Alsorunder special stress, tension, nervousness.

I hear you–EVERYTHING is a fucking trigger. Coffee (which I drink by the gallon), getting in the car. Finishing a project at work. Eating. Getting up in the morning.

BLEAH. I hate going through this. I feel like a loser. But I will NOT let this defeat me. I will prevail. Fuck you, cigarettes.

It would be an improvement if squirrels could write her column. They would save the internets.

Has TinTin rediscovered himself?

Or perhaps he’s doubling and quadrupling down on teh st00pit?

I can answer this without even looking. Yes.

I seem to be in a poor state today to learn how to do this variant task and then do it for money. I tucked in my shirt, but it doesn’t seem to be helping.

Glad that I tried alcohol and pot before tobacco (all in my thirteenth year). Cigarettes didn’t seem to do much, and I had watched my dad and grandad chain-smoke growing up, making it seem profoundly uncool: emphysema, etc.

Why are now both Brendan Keefe and the freaks at Lawyers, Guns and Murder attempting to cover up any mention of [Target]’s real identity? Well, no doubt these f**king sleazebags want to keep the real name of the failed New York actor out of the limelight, lest the full outing spoil their devilish fun.

Nicotine was way harder for me to quit than alcohol or weed. This helped.

You know … Amy Alkon is loathsome enough. You don’t need to keep implying she’s a transvestite or transsexual.

As a transgendered person (MtF), we get enough hate already from people on the right. We don’t need to get hated on by progressives, too.

(Ironically, we haven’t gotten this kind of hate from Amy Alkon, who has defended trans rights in her books and columns.)

Are you trying to say she’s ugly? Then just say it. (I don’t think she’s ugly, but some of her opinions are.)

Anyway, slurring TG people by calling Amy Alkon transgendered is essentially transphobia.

Or, in other words … calling Amy Alkon a transsexual is an insult to transsexuals. (rimshot) Hey, thanks, I’ll be here all week, try the veal.

This jewel of pure herpderpite came to me this morning c/o The American Spectator:

Fellow Patriot,

He’s a blunt new voice that’s hitting our conservative establishment with the force of a wrecking ball.

The guy fascinates all of us, but let’s face it: he also raises a lot of questions.

I’ll ask Donald Trump those questions, 1-on-1, live, for a solid hour. Is this all just posturing? Is he running — or not? Let’s get answers. Who’s the real guy behind the money, flash and fast talk?

Join us. I promise you this won’t be interviews as usual. From the minute we kick off at 11AM Eastern, Tuesday May 17, this will be what everyone’s talking about. Be there.

Best of all, it’s FREE. Reserve your spot now!

Sincerely,

You know … Amy Alkon is loathsome enough. You don’t need to keep implying she’s a transvestite or transsexual.

As I said above, I’m with Trish on this. It does not matter why we started calling Amy a transsexual. What matters is that we act as though it is an insult.

tsam, hang in there. I quit about 15 years ago, and not smelling like an ashtray is nice. It’s a bitch, but it does get easier after the first couple of weeks. Until then, snap and snarl as necessary.

That [target] has never tried very hard to conceal his TRUE LIFE IDENTITY, that any moron with more than a handful of functional neurons could have pegged* him, that Donalde just doesn’t fucking get it, hasn’t figured it out despite the ample clues and that he keeps shouting “look I made a poopie!” and continues to smear said poopies all over his face has filled me with great joy.

Pupienus: Oh, I’ve been lurking here for years, and I often find S,N! to be pretty damned hilarious, so I understand the background, but it just keeps grating on me.

Transsexuals and transgendered people are the last group we can still openly mock, I guess. Well, and people from West Virginia. (Hey … West Virginia trannies? Teh funny! Amirite?)

Trish – search the thread for “trans” for explication. Maybe the previous thred too, I don’t remember exactly.

Not only was it was this very thread, it was the Target himself.

Or, in other words … calling Amy Alkon a transsexual is an insult to transsexuals.

Absolutely, Trish, but the context, I think, allowed a pass on the original iteration. And in hindsight – given that much of the comedy of Alkon rests on what she thinks she is sure of – I think it’s even better. So long live the trans community and all who sail on her and forgive us our trespasses in this one instance.

Oh god, here we fucking go

No comment as to the veracity of this headline, but this all has a very familiar ring to it.

I’m hoping Tintin is not too stubborn to retire the Amy/Arnold move. People would interpret the retirement in various ways, but that’s life, and on the whole it’d be for the best. The lost comedic possibilities don’t justify continuance, IMO, but maybe I lack the imagination and skill to walk this tightrope for paltry gains.

Man, that Tommy Friedman really gets around, doesn’t he?

Words without context are troublesome things. I have been reading it as Arnold being her drag name, no trans context at all. But maybe that’s just me. I do understand, a punk can’t make “that’s so gay” inoffensive by claiming since he didnt _mean_ to offend therrefore it isn’t offensive.

Context is everything.

I feel kind of weirdly guilty … my blog that nobody gives much of a schnizzit about … that I really only got going in order to have a nifty icon to go with my Blogger comments … is … perfectly fine.

FWIW, my $0.02 worth on the TG ish: This is Sadly, No!, not Shakespeare’s Sis. Comments over there are like tapdancing in a minefield. One wrong witticism, and the mods are on you like Fail on Palin. You’ll be ever-so-gently-but-oh-so-sanctimoniously reminded that they will not tolerate anything that smacks of ageism, or looksism, or homophobia, or racism, or anti-semitism, or sexism, or stereotypes about any gender, species, nationality, occupation, preoccupation, predilection, sexual preference, eye color or academic discipline.

Also, too, tapdancing in the minefield…

Here at S,N! Industries, much like another fave, The Rude Pundit, we pride ourselves in in true, glorious political incorrectness. Not the kind of rants about “PC” that conservatards are so prone to, meaning “I should be able to say ‘nigger’ if I wanna”, but a true, reckless pursuit of snark, which could potentially offend everyone, but should absolutely not offend anyone.

Transsexuals and transgendered people are the last group we can still openly mock, I guess. Well, and people from West Virginia.

We do not appreciate slurs against Undead-Americans. Surely we can all have fun without being intolerant of the shambling-challenged…

It only looks like I was ridden hard & put away wet. The real problem is that drug abuse causes puffiness & unsightly lines, as my dear friend Rush always tells me.

Huh. That one went through, but I had two posts eaten in a row this afternoon without so much as a by-your-leave. Is there a magic character sequence that WP reliably blocks?

I know I’ve only been posting regularly for a little bit, but I’ve been lurking for years. I understood the context of the Arnold thing but it still rubs me the wrong way to keep using it like this. I don’t want this place to turn into Shakesville (Grodd forbid) but I think it would be for the best to retire this particular meme. Just my opinion, etc etc.

I also am seeing Thor today. He is standing beneath a sky of unruly Huge Squirrels.

Interestingly enough, Norse mythology does have a “sky-squirrel”. Ratatoskr is a squirrel who runs up and down Yggdrasil (the tree that holds up the nine worlds), delivering insults between the eagle that sits atop the tree, and the dragon Níðhöggr, who gnaws at its roots.

Okay, maybe that depends on your definition of “interesting”.

“Solidarity! I decided to leverage my smoke-free week in the hospital to quit smoking. I figured that was past the worst of the physical addiction, and I was so drugged up I scarely noticed it.”

Food poisoning was my “lucky” mojo… First time in 20 years I was literally too sick to smoke (just thinkin’ ’bout it had me expelling from one or another orifice.) Where the food poisoning ended and the withdrawal began, I couldn’t rightly say, but that was 11 years ago (this month, if I remember correctly…)

Hang in there, tsam, and Jennifer, and Fenwick, and anyone else kicking that monkey in the balls… All roads lead home, if you’re headed in the right direction.

“Was anyone else actually pleasantly surprised to see Democratic senators actually calling those oil cartel CEO’s out on their claim that making them pay some taxes like a small business or ordinary citizen is unamerican?”

Sure, but the execs telling Senators to go pound sand rather than apologize was disheartening though not unexpected.

Re: smoking, when I quit a few years back, among the hardest things to lose was the reflex of my hand going to my shirt pocket. After three decades or so, it had become an automatic response to almost anything. I have since started carrying my ipod there, so at least I can pretend I have a reason to be groping at myself. Substitutes are important when quitting.

So, how was Thor? Were there a lot of butthurt conservatives in the theater? They seem to have a real unhealthy emotional attachment to this project,

Wayyyyyyyyyyy too kind there, Fenwick.

Glad you’re on the mend though.

It is a bit odd that Heimdallr was portrayed by a black man. He’s described in the Eddas as the “whitest of the gods”. He was also the father of the three classes of Norse society.

That said, Idris Elba is a great actor (as any fans of The Wire would know) and did a good job with the role. Not to mention the fact that Marvel’s version of Thor has little to do with the mythology. Heimdall/r’s race is the least of the changes.

I heard that made the Stormfront crown pretty annoyed. Seems they are a bit possessive about Norse stuff. Go figure.

Did not know that, thanks. (Was more into Greek than Norse mythology, but I know the basics).

That, and the obvious counter-argument that many of the movie’s fans have made – white people have played nonwhite people (exhibit A: Jesus Christ) in dozens of movies before, so it’d be ridiculous if it couldn’t be done in reverse.

Also too, good superhero movie.

Exford: I’m fine. Meet with my primary-care doc at the VA clinic yesterday. We iniitiated the transfer of the Johns Hopkins tests to the VA system. (However, been putting on some weight after I stopped smoking.)

I’m working the gum hard. For thirty days, I avoided coffee–a huge psychological trigger for me–and changed my shopping habits to avoid temptation or opportunity; I no longer shop at the store where I used to buy my cigarettes.

Of course, I continue to smoke the sweet smoke. It is part of my self-medication for depression. If was legal in Maryland, I have little doubt that I could obtain a completely genuine scrip for medical marijuana.

This was probably way too windy a Comment. Mainly I want to express Solidarity with the Sadlies who are quitting.

Wow. Indeed.

Keep fuching that ferret, Donaldee.

Well, the luck’s run out for Malaclypse!

Um, yes. I am deeply, deeply concerned.

@TrishMuffin. Since I started the Amy/Arnold Alkon thing, I have, throughout, accused her of being a drag queen, and not a transsexual. Amy has attempted to up her victim points by wilfully refusing to acknowledge this which is meant really as a slight at her wardrobe more than anything else. She dresses like the tired old drag queens I’ve seen in too many tired gay bars lip-syncing to tired disco anthems. In particular, she looks almost exactly like, and dresses almost exactly like, LA performer Lypsynka. go here for photos and see if you don’t see a similarity.

yeah, the intertubas have been deprived of Donaldee’s hilariously wrong deductions for over a day now.

I read it. Or tried to. Them there are some pretty tenuous (read:non-existent) connections leading to a conclusion that ultimately going to be found to be quite hilarious. “Target,” Tintin: Soon. Please.

And yes, professional intervention needed.

As in a Fire Suppression Team.

As previously stated, All. One. Guy.

Of course they weren’t going to shut down a Sharia site like Sadly, No!

Sadly, No! is the keystone. Once it changes to Sadly, YES!, real Americans will be fucked.

Looking at Pup and the other culinary geniuses

See my noodle and cheeze recipe above. It does not disappoint.***

**Not intended to be a factual statement

fucking broke already? Buncha chumps.

I’m gonna stretch this bitch out to 1000

Watch me now, hey!

Nah. I’m here.

You’ve lost your touch.

As previously stated, All. One. Guy.

Yah.

I just want to have some fun. And some people just bring it on themselves. Especially douchebags that try to out folks for revenge.

Hulk SMASH!

See my noodle and cheeze recipe above

I’m not gonna lie. The idea of setting peepers on this “recipe” frightens me a little bit.

Caldonia!
Caldonia!

Vader: Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father.

Luke: He told me you killed him!

Vader: NAH. ME AND ANAKIN IZ: ALL.ONE. GUY. LOL.

Luke: No! That’s impossilbe!

Vader: SRSLY Join me dude. We can TOTES rulez TEH GALAXY! AMIRITE????

The idea of setting peepers on this “recipe” frightens me a little bit.

You know how to cook. This SHOULD frighten you immensely. Reading the instructions may cause dry heaves or even wet heaves.

I do not know how to cook. I could disgust you for days with some of the things I’ve “invented” in my apartment kitchen area.

I still have a perfect record. No known fatalities from my food atrocities.

TinTin: Thanks for background on the origin of the Alkon meme in Sadlyland.

I’m sort of ambivalent. I understand why Sub wants to make Alkon an exception to Sadly courtesy.

But Trish and Mal make a lot of sense to me. People need to be who they are on the inside, and valued for that. Includes transvestite; includes trans-gender. It’s like valuing bbfk’s special-needs child. Like valuing any human. But I’m an old-school DFH, so what do I know?

This is awesome but I suspect crazy eyes Shelly is a’scared to accept.

Dear Representative Bachmann,

My name is Amy Myers. I am a Cherry Hill, New Jersey sophomore attending Cherry Hill High School East. As a typical high school student, I have found quite a few of your statements regarding The Constitution of the United States, the quality of public school education and general U.S. civics matters to be factually incorrect, inaccurately applied or grossly distorted. The frequency and scope of these comments prompted me to write this letter.
. . .
Rep. Bachmann, the frequent inability you have shown to accurately and factually present even the most basic information about the United States led me to submit the follow challenge, pitting my public education against your advanced legal education:

I, Amy Myers, do hereby challenge Representative Michele Bachmann to a Public Forum Debate and/or Fact Test on The Constitution of the United States, United States History and United States Civics.

Hopefully, we will be able to meet for such an event, as it would prove to be enlightening.

Sincerely yours,
Amy Myers

But Trish and Mal make a lot of sense to me.

It’s not an unreasonable position.

Or I could say “It’s a reasonable position” but I just got a new shipment of syllables and THEY MUST BE USED.

Hey–I don’t think anyone here values trans-gendered or even drag queens any less than any other human being. It’s well known that some posters here are gay, and we all make gay jokes while piling on a dumbass wingnut. When a homophobe shows up here, what sort of joke does he get bashed with most often?

It has to be understood that there are no prejudices here. Childish and silly as it may be, we use these things to be what we consider to be funny and push buttons. Look at the reaction we got out of Donalde.

Nobody here is picking on trans-gendered people. That intent is entirely absent from (at least) the regulars here. Anyone except wingnuts are always welcome here as far as I’m concerned.

high in sodium and carbs

Actually me too. And not hunched.
There. I admit it.

I feel much better.

I am not Gary Ruppert though.

Amy Myers

Representative Amy Myers. Hmmm-that has a nice ring to it, don’t you all think?

YOU GO GIRL–GET THAT CRAZY HO!

I am not Gary Ruppert though.

Or am I…..?

I seldom follow links to the reichwing (and never ever leave the boat). So I’ve only been following the TinTin Double-Secret Mystery Identity thing via the thread. (A short summary of the backstory would be helpful, if someone can spare the time.)

Also, Donalde is new to me; I should have been paying more attention. I gather the Sadlyland verdict is that Donalde ISRAEL, so I need to go back and study this particular specimen more carefully. I’m trying to build a Fake Troll portfolio. Back soon.
