Why can’t I ever get to comment in a thread these days before there’s at *least* one tag stuck on? It’s depressing. Next time I’m first in on a thread, I’m gonna shout, “FRIST!1!—AND, NO STUCK TAGZ!!!!1!” And it will be strangely satisfying somehow.

Who among us does not love Watermelon Jolly Ranchers?

Damn, I’m going to have to go buy a bag of them now.

Why were Watermelon Jolly Ranchers the only good flavor? The whole hard candy world still struggles with this conundrum. Grape Jolly Ranchers sucked and Strawberry, normally the standard of excellence for flavor in all varieties including skin moisturizer, was unable to take the hill from the Great King Watermelon.

Delicious, delicious moisturizer.

TS,

Ok, so my reading is off. I blame Grogan–her misuse of the language permeates the landscape hereabouts and even affects my comprehension skills. My apologies for the spluttering.

Now, my balls still hurt and I have to find someone else to blame for that…

1) What are you people doing when you take those pictures? That’s a lot of red.

2) Does their girlfriend call them up and say, â€œI thought u were kewl, but then I saw that some guy on the Internet called u a â€˜wanker.â€™ We r so, so ovar.â€?

hmmm…maybe that’s what happened to Brendan. Or maybe she always knew that he was a wanker and it was the last straw.

3) Oh I hope Allen gets voted out. I was living in virginia when he suspended motor voter. My husband (then bf) had walked in the virginian summer heat to the DMV and was told he couldn’t register to vote.

But, yeah, I’m worried that racist remarks might not turn off too many people who vote for Allen. That state does have a Stonewell Jackson, Lee, Martin Luther King Day — I guess because honoring King meant that they had to put two slave holders as honorees on the same day?

who knows – i can’t figure out the Old Dominion. But it’s interesting that native Virginians were taken aback by Allen’s language and actions in the early 70s.

by the way — what year did UVA racially integrate, anyway? I think it was in the early 70s.

Unlike Friedman’s taxi driver, my friend was a real person, an African-American professor of Computer Science and Systems Analysis, and he was explaining to me why he personally preferred southern-fried white folks to what he saw as northern-fake white folks. Since my heritage is mixed (Boston MA and Winchester VA), I was only half-offended by his prejudice, and anyway, he was a funny guy.

I myself was one of the few white kids who didn’t use the N word but that wasn’t my virtue, just my luck at having commie pinko jewish intellectual grandparents.

As for George Allen, he’s too stupid to be a Virginia politician, and THAT is a strong statement, but it’s true, because he’s too stupid to know when and how to lie.

Hey you goyim: Take George Allen, PLEASE. And you can take back John Kerry and Maddie Albright while you’re at it.

Gavin, I really think this post needs a picture of Devastatin’ Brad, but perhaps served up with a little special sauce. No, wait, forget I mentioned special sauce in commenting on a post about wankers.

Thorlac,

No, No. I left plenty of wiggle room in there. The MAY be racists and of course at the end I assumed that everyone who is not a racist (not even in denial) will vote for Webb. I assume you are one of those gentlepersons. Virginia is one of my favorite states (I am a Navy brat and Navy veteran).

Hate Encrusted Eyes: I just love the fact that macaca is going to enter the American political lexicon. Thank you Felix.

Stop calling that shit-eating Klan wannabe “Felix,” you wanker. My son is named Felix. Klan-boy’s name is “George,” same as the English King who threw away the American colonies, or the worst American president ever.

Sorry, Brad, atrios has santorum today.

And Boy, doesn’t THAT parse differently after Dan Savage’s campaign!

And my dad, a former Marine who served and was injured in ‘Nam (’67-69), has recommended Fields Of Fire to me a number of times. I’ve always held off, because the old man has said it’s “real, no bullshit”. It’s taken 30 years for the old man to recover from that little dose of “reality”, and I must say it comes as no surprise that the GOP’s now-erstwhile golden boy is yet another fortunate son. How ’bout that.

mikey,
Not really having much of a dog in the hunt, I really haven’t kept up with the Virginia race, apart from the never-ending hilarity provided by folks like Garybot in defending a carpetbagging rich-boy racist like Allen. I did not know Jim Webb served in ‘Nam, and in fact, was a highly decorated Marine. I also did not know Allen, though he supported Nixon’s escalation of the war, took a student deferment. Again, I have no dog in this hunt, but I must say…that’s funny as hell.

Seanly,
Yeah, no shit. You don’t waste a good deer head on a hate crime. Take the antlers and make rattlers out of them, after of course, riding around with the severed head in the back of your pick-up truck so you can show it off to everybody. Must’ve been a doe, meaning there were two of Gawd’s critters sans any balls in that affair.
