First they came for the toilet paper, and I said nothing for I was not toilet paper…

Always. Trust. The. Shorter.™

So budget cuts three years ahead of Obamacare because Gov. Chris Christie is a fucking tighwad are somehow attributable to Obama because TIME MACHINE!?

First they came for the toilet paper, and I said nothing for I was not toilet paper…

….and then I had the bean burrito at the food truck…

You can take my toilet paper from my cold dead hands.

You can take my toilet paper from my cold dead hands.

Must have been a helluva dump you took there, Poops.

Toilet paper now! Toilet paper forever!

Wow. I thought maybe, just maybe, Tintin might be exaggemerating Jeannie’s groping.

According to Harold, some council members didn’t think the cash-strapped city needed to buy the cups.” That mentality is kind of like Obama saying, ‘Give Granny a cheap pain pill and forget the expensive pacemaker.’

Wow. Just wow.

Zammo! NO!

It’s almost like she’d seen that Photoshop before and wrote a column to fit it.

Are you guys ever ashamed about how easy your job is?* I mean really, it’s not even fish in a barrel anymore. It’s fish tied across the gun’s muzzle.

*Or would be, if it paid?

I think Jeannie’s metaphor is nothing short of brilliant! She has taken the measure of the problem and compacted it expertly into a managable bundle. After pinching the issue off at the source, she has taken a careful swipe at the offending material, delving deeply, but careful not to get her hands too dirty. Then she takes a fresh perspective, and approaches the matter from the opposite direction for good measure.

That mentality is kind of like Obama saying, ‘Give Granny a cheap pain pill and forget the expensive pacemaker.’

And that’s nothing compared to Obama’s crimes in proctology.

Don’t mock the toilet paper Holocaust!!!11!

The only proposal about rationing healthcare has come from the Repukes who want to cut off reproductive healthcare for millions of women for reasons having nothing to do with health outcomes or even cost. Imagine if the shortage of TP was due to whackaloon fundie creeps and their political enablers deciding someone else’s religious freedom dictates you can’t wipe your ass. Good job Jeannie for making our case for us.

Then she takes a fresh perspective, and approaches the matter from the opposite direction for good measure.

Back, and to the left. Back, and to the left.

Liberté! Egalité! Papier!

What happens when a federally appointed healthcare panel spends precious time discussing whether a “cash-strapped” country can still afford chemotherapy, or long-term dialysis?

To paraphrase Terry Pratchett:

The country is bankrupt! And yet, it is full of billionaires.

Somebody needs to troll Pammycakes, tell her that they replaced the TP with stones. And monitor to make sure everyone uses their left hand.

Come to think about it, I’m not surprised Jeannie is writing about toilet paper. She’s has, essentially, been writing on toilet paper all along.

FYipad

If they can’t cure the common cold, then THERMONUCLEAR WAR, PEOPLE!!

Has Robin Berserkely moved to Portland?

Maybe the Right are so insistent on “personal responsibility” because they back a system which assigns none. Compare “this panel decided” to “the Market decided”—both are ways of eliding individual responsibility, but one is a complete dead-end in its further investigation.

I hope you kids washed your hands before lunch or the Principal’s gonna get phone calls.

She really did write this:

“The moral of the story is this: If the government cannot supply toilet paper on the local level, how is the federal government going to adequately provide for the extraordinarily intricate healthcare needs of 300 million people?”

The question must be asked: Is she actually mentally challenged or is she just dumbing-down for her readership?

smedley, I don’t think anyone could fake a Jeannie. I almost feel sad for her, what with her obsessive paranoid thing going on and not being all that sharp in the first place. Almost.

Yes, but does her argument stand up on its own?

Nah, throw it at the fan and see what hits.

I get it. The bitch is going for the old legends about the poor, downtrodden Soviets under SuperSoviet KGB Jackboot Thugs Union just like OBAMAHITLER lining up in the streets for toilet paper…? Yes?

You know, I just can’t tell her argument from shineola.

We know from commercials that bears love toilet paper…

Quick, somebody alert Stephen Colbert!

Pedobears, however, do not love toilet paper.

First they came for the toilet paper, and I said nothing for I was not toilet paper…

First they came for Jeannie,

And I said “Here! Let me hold that door for you!”

Corporations are magic! They never run out of toilet paper.

Has Robin Berserkely moved to Portland?

Seems unlikely that’s her, Pup– she wouldn’t have been around for nearly long enough to omit the area code and assume that we’d automatically dial (503).

Ugh. No matter when I go to sleep in the morning, it’s hard for me to sleep past 1:00 PM or so.

Since we were an hour and a half late getting in this morning, due to a variety of factors, I didn’t get to bed until around 8:30 AM.

And I get to go back out in 5 and a half hours.

And I get to go back out in 5 and a half hours.

If I’m lucky I’ll get a very short nap in Memphis during the sort.

Otherwise just drink lots of coffee. Better living through chemistry.

I see Pup beat me to the “floater” quip, so instead I’ll just mention that this post of Jeannie’s has gone straight to Number Two on the “all time favorite shittiest posts of Jeannie’s” list.

Also and too, from the tail end (SWIDT?) of the last post:

…
In other news, the sun is shining brightly in Corvallis, so maybe the slush will be gone soon.

Was that a nymchange for S. cerevisiae or do we have another Sadly in the Corvallis area? If there are now three of us, is that now the highest per-capita concentration of Sadlies on the planet!?! … Hmm, now that I think about it one Sadly in an even tinier town would win that one. Oh well, we need to arrange for a meeting over beer to discuss alternate plans of world domination…

That article should be used in every school as an example of what a lack of critical thinking can lead to.

I wish I could think of a funny closer, but I just can’t top what Jeannie herself accomplished with this idiocy.

There’s me and the Limpet here. Haven’t heard from Djur in ages. There was another fellow at Sadly, no! the Portlanding who mostly lurked and I don’t recall anything else about him. Limpet – you remember the hairy chest guy? The Ho hasn’t commented in ages but he frequently lurks.

I’m pretty sure there’s not another SN! participant within 80 miles of me. Beyond that is Marion somewhere near Savannah, there was once Mo’s Bike Shop in NorthFL and in days of yore there was a cluster around ‘tlanta.

Low country, first coaster lurkers represent!

*crickets*

That’s what I thought.

Nashville is rising. 😉
.

Three of us in a town of 50k people isn’t bad. Corvallis is an ebil decadent atheist lieberal enclave and all, so it shouldn’t surprise me.

“Hairy chest guy?” You mean the dude whose torso graced our PDX meetup thread? He went by the handle “cocktail hag” at least once, if memory serves.

Pup, do you realize that come August it will have been four freakin’ years since then? Jeezuz– my high school stint lasted for six eternities, but that meetup seems like it was just last week– this red shift is getting scary.

OBS, I think we should exclude burgs with just one Sadly from the per-capita count. There should be a minimum of two for consideration, so’s to enable truly conspiratorial plot-hatching.

Yeah, good point. We do get to make up the rules as we go along after all…

I was a lurker back during the time of The Portlanding but couldn’t make the trip up there. I had a sad.

I imagine the basement of some troll’s mom would have the highest per capita ratio of S/N commenters, with a ratio of 5 or 6 different commenters per person.

Jeannie shoulda worked in something about just using Constitution.

I’d do a joke along those lines but I can’t seem to draft one that meets my lax standards for sense-making.

Somebody needs to troll Pammycakes, tell her that they replaced the TP with stones three seashells.

Fixed that for you.

Be well!

If the government can’t send the police to the right house to shoot people on the local level how is the government going to find the moon?

But you commute to Memphis. What a world!

It’s not that tough, really.

We have a flight that goes from LCK (Rickenbacker) to Memphis in the morning and 2 more at night. Each flight has from 6-8 jumpseats, so it’s never been a problem getting to and from work. Roughly half our pilots commute.

There’s also 3 Delta Connection flights a day between Memphis and Port Columbus. We have agreements with most airlines to share jumpseats.

By asking the top 1% — ya know, those that made off with more than half of all income gains these past few years — to pony up a few extra percentage points on their taxes? Maybe taxing capital gains and dividend income at regular rates?

No. No it wouldn’t.

This is what boggles the most. Regardless of actual reality where Medicare, the military and several other government health care programs are remarkably efficient and generally well run and well liked by their users, and where pretty much everyone else is getting roundly fucked by their insurance companies, if they’re lucky enough to have any in the first place, the whingenuts cry “Eeeeeebil Gummint!!!!” In a world </Don LaFontaine> where the insurers regularly reject life saving treatment for being unkind to their bottom line, these fuckwits are concerned, OH so concerned, that if anybody else gave running the system a whack they might be somehow even more loathsome than the current “If I can’t get a new Mercedes out of it, NO KIDNEY FOR YOU!” system we currently have. Not bloody likely, and at the very least there would be some sort of oversight, if for no other reason than these very nitwit’s paranoia.

Perhaps the problem can be solved by not voting Republicans into City Council. Just a thought— the kind of people who sabotage things then blame others for the damage then hate on the government yet run for government positions.

I always thought Toilet Jeannie had just finished a bottle of vodka, but now I see a cork on the ground nearby. Such attention to detail. Clearly she’s just eaten many decorative pickled peppers from above the kitchen cabinets. What do they suspend those in? Oil? Boy, that’d send you to the can.

This is what boggles the most. Regardless of actual reality where Medicare, the military and several other government health care programs are remarkably efficient and generally well run and well liked by their users, and where pretty much everyone else is getting roundly fucked by their insurance companies…

S’truth. I’m in the VA system, which provides excellent, patient-centered healthcare. (Though I know wiley has had some bad experiences with the mental health aspects.) I know from experience that single-payer WORKS and works well. The entire ‘business’ model of the private-sector vultures is based on denying health care….and especially so when people need it most.

OBS – that wasn’t me so there must be another Sadly here. I’ve actually lived in three different places since I found Sadlyville in the mid-oughts, but only rarely commented then under a few different names that I have forgotten.

On topic: Maybe she is counting on people equating government toilet paper to the awful stuff they used to have at school. Her argument is still incredibly stupid but she probably hopes no one notices.

Hoosier X (who used to comment here more frequently) & I used to live in the same ap’t. bldg. in Hollywood, but that was before Sadly (& almost before the Internet).

We comprised 10% of the bldg.’s population.

“I never make any spelling errors though occasionally I will use invisible pixels.”

Years ago I noticed that “invisible” tape costs more than “transparent.” I guess the former actually bends light. But for most jobs the latter is good enough.

I’ve been a-lurking nearly daily, but haven’t had time to keep up as comprehensively as I’d like on the threads, and thus have been largely silent.

Her argument is still incredibly stupid but she probably hopes no one notices lacks the sufficient number of neurons to be aware of it.

Crazy bananas nuttiness afoot, re O’Keefe:

http://nadianaffe.com/

OT: another one for the “we’re failing because we’re not being Truly Conservative” bandwagon, the National Review attempts to explain that the reason Evangelical Social Conservatives are failing is that Evangelical Social Conservatives 1) care too much about the material needs of the poor, 2) don’t scold sinners enough, and 3) aren’t rigidly loyal enough to their One True Church (whichever that one happens to be).

You can’t make this shit up.

(As usual, credit goes to facebook-friend-in-SB-seminary).

From Sub Mc’s link:
“James, this is not junior high. You need to grow up and be a man. Do not continue to make a fool of yourself by calling to offer me money, as you did on Oct. 24th. I was never with you for the money. I’m not looking for a payoff. Be a man and return my panties and scarf that were in the trunk of your car. Do not keep my undergarments as a trophy or souvenir to show off to your friends. We have been friends for two years, do not have Ryan contact me to discuss our personal and private affairs.”

O’Keefe is George Zimmerman writ very very small.

For O’Keefe, it will always be junior high.

I want to hear more about…

James told me Seife had been pestering him to release Project Veritas’ IRS forms 1023, 990 and 990-T. He was concerned that Seife may have already reported PV to the IRS. When I asked James why not just release the IRS forms Seife had requested as required by federal law, he implied there were problems with PV’s IRS disclosures, such that, releasing the forms for public inspection was simply not an option

Perhaps fucking with the IRS will finally land him in the slammer.

Stored in the DVR right now, waiting until I have two hrs. to spare. Did see it in a theater w/in a couple yrs. of its release, FORTY YRS. AGO!!! (Crap, where’d it all go?)

Time flies when yer havin’ fun ! And I’ll bet you still are havin’ fun, MB….

I’m amped to see this film at long last.

I’ll bet you still are havin’ fun, MB….

Not like the long gone past, but we are still kicking.

“Next in the queue: The Wild Bunch”

Did any single actor appear in more of what Turner Classic Movies considers “The Essentials” than William Holden?

Sunset Boulevard, Born Yesterday, Stalag 17, Sabrina, Picnic, The Bridge on the River Kwai, The Wild Bunch, Network, and, of course, the aforementioned Casino Royale.

(which I am documenting in possible prep for a food blog post)

Woot!

I’m picking a Fux News spot for Jim-Jim or a “Chuckles” Johnson-like conversion.

i still refuse to hit LGF, I used to go mangoe hunting in that most fetid of swamps after johnson had gon all sand nigger need to die all the time. While i am glad that he seems to have come to his senses, i just don’t trust someone who’s first inclination in response to 9/11 was to start listening to the skidmarks in yon underoos.

Dude should have come up with a site re-design or a new site entirely becdause i can’t look at that fucking logo without thinking of Rachel Corrie, and the vile shit he and his commentariat had to say about her death.

Those are some beauties you are watching Jeffraham. Looks like the Calico runs the show in that outfit.

While reading Charles Murray’s new book, I came across insightful and disturbing discussions by Yuval Levin and Ross Douthat.

From the NRO piece linked by someone above, (who will pay if I find them out /shakes fist).

I gotta say, that this sentence is a hurdle and might be a bit much to handle while wearing a couple of wetsuits. How much fail can one pack in 13 words (names not counting at this juncture). I mean a complete forensic analysis of this sentence and what it says about this David French (ha!), the wingnut welfare gravy train, and pretty much everything that is wrong in this world could take months to properly adress.

I would nominate this one for a prize of some kind. I have been stopped in my tracks in stunnead amazement, which is something that does not happen all of the time.
.

Moar French. And a apparently Douchbat is writing a book which will ‘splain suff and things aboot why we can’t have nice things

As a lifelong evangelical, let me add my whole-hearted agreement. During my years in the pews, I’ve witnessed a moral collapse — and a corresponding collapse in positive influence over the real lives not just of our fellow congregants but also of our fellow citizens in need.

Pro tip dude, the conversion narrative tends to sell more shinola.

Twenty years from now, they’ll be asking this about Harrison Ford, you realize.

“Twenty years from now, they’ll be asking this about Harrison Ford, you realize.”

Heh. True dat. But, to give him his due, Ford did appear in four of the films on the much more important “smedley’s List of Essential Films that You Must See Before You Die”:

The Conversation
American Graffiti
Apocolypse Now
Witness

Notably, the last of those came out in 1985.

Apocalypse Now, also.

I first read this as “kittehshitting,” and I was like “What an odd, disturbing thing to love.”

So budget cuts three years ahead of Obamacare because Gov. Chris Christie is a fucking tighwad

In all fairness, at least Christie is being vaguely consistent here in that he is an actual deficit hawk (and is, toilet paper shortages excepted — that and the fact that I am still working without a contract and in general all state employees and faculty/staff at state schools here are being screwed over, actually putting a stop to a lot of NJ financial shadiness) unlike the national Republicans who are pushing penny-wise/pound-foolish spending cuts on social programs because “oh noes, teh deficit” even as they are pushing for tax cuts on the richers and for spending increases in certain domains.

Christie may be a skinflint and an obnoxious ass to boot, but at least he is not the sort of two-faced snake that has displaced the elephant as the symbol of the national Republican party.

Time’s fun when you’re having flies.

Awes. Did Jeannie get stranded with no one willing to share a square?

I enjoy kittehsitting only if they’re declawed. Otherwise they can make a mess of my butt and legs.

Man on cat sex!

Man on cat sex!

Mee-OWWW!!!

News item: White House selects Jim Yong Kim to head World Bank.

How it will be understood among the FoxNewsNosepickers of Flyover America: Obama gave all our money to that Korean Communist dictator!!1!

“Man on cat sex!”

Well, I admit, I do find some cougars quite attractive.

Blade Runner, I can forgive Ford a lot for Blade Runner

Omg, Thread Bear, that brings back memories…that was one of those semi-scandalous movies floating around in the ether when I was a kid…

I’ve never seen it; now I want to

Well, smedley, that’s nice to know, as I’m heading into cougar territory myself.

“Awes. Did Jeannie get stranded with no one willing to share a square?”

I DIDN’T HAVE A SQUARE TO SHARE! NOT EVEN A PLY!

OR SPARE.

you tricked me into going to American Stinker vs damn you! I started reading but was laughing to hard to continue by the end of the second sentence.

What? No love for Force Ten From Navarone????

Cupcakes are theft!

In all fairness, at least Christie is being vaguely consistent here in that he is an actual deficit hawk

Giving a tax break to the wealthy adds to deficits, as I recall. And his fundamental assumptions of economic growth are probably not going to happen.

The nigger was asking for it.

Fuck! I can’t believe I left off Blade Runner! Thanks for reminding me that I am losing brain cells by the minute, AK. And, fuck you, wingtards, for suppressing stem-cell research that will help ward off Alzheimer’s by about the time I’m………………………what was I talking about?

Fuck! I can’t believe I left off Blade Runner!

If the government cannot supply clichés on the local level, how is the federal government going to adequately provide for the dunce needs of 300 million people?

We manage.

“What happens when a federally appointed healthcare panel spends precious time discussing whether a ‘cash-strapped’ country can still afford chemotherapy, or long-term dialysis?”

Jeannie, dialysis was the wrong example. Almost all dialysis costs are borne by the government, primarily by Medicare but also through Medicaid. Federal law expanded Medicare to cover chronic kidney disease in 1972.

I first read this as “kittehshitting,” and I was like “What an odd, disturbing thing to love.”

Heeeeey!
Don’t judge me, man!

Besides, it should be obvious that kittehshitting is exactly what parkour & planking were leading up to.

Like, DUHHH.

Shorter Santorum: “If I don’t get to win, then FUCK the Republican Party up teh poopchute with a LAWS rocket.”

We manage.

I never realized they were so dangerous, I better burn mine immediately.

Ot, but maybe someone here can help me. I’m trying to figure out what kind of car is in the top picture on this page. The ad says they are giving away a new car, but the rules say they are actually giving away cash. The cash probably works better for most people, but isn’t that false advertising?

I’m trying to figure out what kind of car is in the top picture on this page.

It’s a Jonhamm.

It’s a Jonhamm.

Cool, now can you tell me where to find the nearest Jonhamm dealer?

“It’s a Jonhamm.”

It certainly is ruggedly handsome.

I never realized they were so dangerous, I better burn mine immediately.

Oh noes! I’m wearing a hoodie right now!

I wondered why I suddenly had the urge to down a couple 40s of OE and go hold up a quicky-mart. Thanks for letting me know the dangers inherent in my radical yet casual clothing, Geraldo.

“Cool, now can you tell me where to find the nearest Jonhamm dealer?”

There might be one in “The Town.”

In unrelated news, Bill Bellichik was gunned down in cold blood while wearing his hoodie. so, y’know, upside.

From s. cerevisiae’s link, a quote from Geraldo:

“I think unless it’s raining out, or you’re at a track meet, leave the hoodie home.”

A couple of the articles I read about the incident mentioned that it was raining that night. So, kudos to Geraldo for doing such great journalistic research before inserting his foot in his mouth.

If the government cannot supply killing delights on the local level, how is the federal government going to adequately provide for the dominating badness needs of 300 million people?

I see what you typed there.

Ah, so if I need long-term dialysis, it will be covered by my expensive private mandated insurance plan? Yes? Yes?

Oh, right. No public option. No Medicare for all. Silly liberal me.

Better donate now to get more of the same for four more years. Better not vote Green.

I’m trying to figure out what kind of car is in the top picture on this page.

Hard to say, looks kinda like this Jaguar XKR but not exactly.

I can’t be arsed to check, but I don’t think any of cars pictured are gonna be $50k.

From the official rules: Prizes & Approximate Retail Value: (1) Winner will receive $50,000.

Looks like a Nissan 350Z.

Pretty sure it’s a Jaguar XK.

Wow! A whole new flavor of troll, all busy ‘splaining to the laydeez about the sexytimes! I haz a palpitation…

Hah! Pup doesn’t know that they make the 370Z now. And the back window is wrong. I think the kerning is weird also.

D’aw, lookit the cute badgers!

Yep, it’s an XK. I haven’t been much into cars for a long time now. Hell, I’m more familiar with the Datsun 240Z than anything today. Don’t even read Cab & Drover anymore.

Mastership versus Sado-Masochism

Cool story, bro.

OBS, those are cute badgers. If only I could make badgers dance here at work…

Breaking up the article lends a weird JanusNody effect to the usual cut-and-paste nonsense. The unattached paragraphs just sit there.

Pretty much by definition.

“Bill Bellichik was gunned down in cold blood while wearing his hoodie.”

Does not compute. Bellichik is white. Hoodies OK on white dude. Thus implyeth the Geraldo.

“While it is true, young ladies, the chance that the Prince of Wales will fall in love with you, or a Scottish Highlander, Dashing Pirate, or Brooding Indian Brave, you are likely to fall in love.”

Come again?

Taters gonna tate.

Come again?

I don’t think you’re supposed to do that before you fall in love…

Watership Shardik is a classic heroic fantasy novel, written by English author Richard Adams, about a small group of rabbits who pursue Shardik, a giant bear they believe to embody the Power of God. Evoking epic themes, the novel recounts the rabbits’ odyssey as they escape the destruction of their warren to seek out the Ortelgans as prophesied. They travel through dangerous territory, with Bigwig and Silver, both former Owsla, as the strongest rabbits among them. As this story is told, Shardik emerges from the ravine and flees again into the woods. Hazel and his rabbits learn Efrafa is a police state led by the despotic General Woundwort; Hazel’s rabbits barely return alive. The bear attacks Woundwort, mortally wounding him before itself collapsing in the river. Fiver, his faith and kindness restored but now tempered with knowledge of the world, returns to the town of Zeray with the children and attempts to re-establish a lawful society.

Not having access to badgers on my iphone, I read the porn/romance novels spam. My god, there’s so much wrong there I scarcely know where to begin. Oh, how about here: Feminists are to blame for date rape.

Wow. The more you know!

I think Sub has fed the troll to his magic JanusNode machine.

Marion, well, I’m sure that would be true if anything he said were deep. Or evidence of thinking.

Global Warming? Whether you believe it’s a hoax or it’s real…yep…our fault.

Your bad hair day? Yes, feminists.

Whew, it’s good to get this off our chests!

The world would be just perfect (for me) if all you ladies would give up this silly desire for being anything other than objects, and if all those fruity guys that are think of them as equal human beings would all just fall off the face of the Earth cuz you’re obviously gay anyway.

That’s really funny and not just cuz it’s true.

there’s a new thread upstairs but its already been pooped upon.

Man, backdoor privilege* really makes badgering a snap. Oh, and new post.

*Yes, I phrased it this way entirely so everyone’s inner 9 year old could have a good snigger… Including mine. Hee hee, backdoor.

By the way, “shitting kittens” feels like it needs to be a thing. Like “Don’t shit kittens, people!”

“Oh, when my dad finds out about this, he’s going to SHIT KITTENS.”

“When the dumb troll figured out what century it was, he totally shit a kitten!”

‘natch-

Has it now?

Yeah vs, I like it:
