When The Party’s Over
Posted on December 12th, 2008 by Gavin M.
Shorter Wes Vernon:
- Whoa there, folks. It’s hard enough to convince people that Vince Foster was murdered, that Saddam Hussein was behind the Oklahoma City bombing, and that Flight 800 was shot down by a missile, without conservatives running around trying to float these wacky birth certificate conspiracy theories.
‘Shorter’ concept created by Daniel Davies and perfected by Elton Beard. We are aware of all Internet traditions.™
VICTORY!!
Shania Law shall soon rule our worlds!
Wha?
Vince Foster murdered Saddam Hussein?
Cool….
mikey
The Flight 800 one always seemed somewhat plausible to me. But it’s all speculation anyway, not useful.
What would conservatism be without batshit crazy conspiracies.
Very good word, that, “illusive.” Something that’s not only an illusion, but it keeps eluding you.
Is this a feature of home-schooling?
I’m No. 2.
Ooo, there’s a tell.
M. B. enters, takes last drag from Camel, throws it to the gutter, looks at watch.
THE HELL W/ IT, I CAN’T WAIT ANY LONGER FOR THESE CLOWNS TO SHOW UP. FATBURGER, HERE I COME!
Stomps off in a huff.
Also someone needs to follow up on the fact that used to be well understood by patriot / militia types that because some stop signs had bar-code looking stickers on them it obviously meant that Hillary Clinton was planning a Russian / United Nations invasion & occupation of the USA, using these little stickers as crucial navigating tools, and now that she’s going to be given nuclear weapons as the Secretary of State we better stock up on our colloidal silver.
Goddam these liberals, going around deeming things.
I read his name as “Wes Venom”, which would be a pretty cool tag for slasher porn.
When will I learn not to doubt the ‘shorter’?
Its has what it says on the can.
I believe mine is the one comment.
What Ockham said.

Well, oftentimes The Shorter will exaggerate for comic effect, but in this case…
Oh dear. That’s a lot of crazy.
(See RenewAmerica’s publishing standards.)
You know, for a site that more or less will publish any freelance cat-throwing, raving-derelict nutcase who happens to
stumble onfigure out how to use the e-mail box their mom got them, I find this statement hilarious.I like the way he says that Mr. Fund tells them not be wacko but Vernon says you should be wacko but he would advise against it because he thinks that Obama is really part of the Daley machinery and that’s his son with Obama not the Father who runs the machine.
Do be wacko, don’t be wacko, do be, don’t be. Doobey doobey doo.
Shorter shorter:
In(s)anity — UR DOIN IT RONG!!11!
Why aren’t any of these posts (since Jackie Gingrich) appearing on the home page? I’ve tried multiple computers and browsers, but I can only see anything after Dec 7 in the RSS feeds.
For those weirdly nostalgic for such things, watch these:
http://www.tv-signoffs.com
You can be thrilled by the booming station announcer’s voice that the channel has reached the end of the broadcast day, heard the Star Spangled Banner, until you reach the thrilling conclusion of white noise as the broadcast ends.
My, god, we never knew how good we had it, that one day we would be able to wax nostalgic about the return of a TV channel to the reception dominated by the universe’s microwave background noise.
For those weirdly nostalgic for such things, watch these:
Crazy. I remember when TV stations used to actually not broadcast anything for part of the day.
Then along came 24-hour cable news and infomercials, and the semantic content of nighttime TV plunged.
No no no! Vince Foster was shot from one of Saddam’s cannons that was hidden in OKC to bring down flt 800 because one of the stewards had had a gay underage affair with Afro-Muslim Obama who had confessed to him his radical plan to bring down America more than 10 years in the future. Mkay?
Stupid, desperate and Republican is no way to go through life.
Where does KAL flight 007 and Pearl Harbor figure into all this?
mikey
Alternate shorter: please stop wasting your time with this birth certificate nonsense. Now allow me to spend an entire column on this birth certificate nonsense.
And the pelicans…
Where do they keep the vault copy TV signoffs? How do we know that these TV signoffs were even aired in the USA?
More importantly, is Phillip Berg really Tommy Lasorda.
I mean, they both are from Pennsylvania. They both do a lot of yelling – Berg primarily at brown-skinned people; Lasorda at umpires and reporters.
Both are very, very creepy, gray-haired guys with double chins.
And finally, I don’t ever remember seeing these two at the same place at the same time.
Kind of strange, considering both are from Pennsylvania.
Off topic but …
Anyone else using an iPod touch having problems visiting this site? No entries appear after Dec. 7’s Jackie Gingrich post. Even if I go to the archives, that’s the last post. Weird.
Few know that signoff archivist J. Alan Wall’s J stands for JIHAD.
I am sure you are all elated to know that the online, NBC-sponsored TV and Movie free streaming video site, Hulu.com, has finally gotten around to putting the hilarious, side-splitting news & review show for conservatives, “Red Eye”, in their collection. Unfortunately they are only up to October 31st, so we don’t yet get to see how the brilliantly insightful Greg Gutfeld will skewer that fake non-citizen and Illinois government corrupter Barack Obama as he loses in a landslide to Palin/McCain.
http://www.hulu.com/red-eye
Matt and Jim: I haven’t had any problems at all. I’ve seen several people say they can’t see posts after Dec 7 on the front page, but I have been unaffected.
Browsing from a PC directly to sadlyno.com, firefox 1.5, no script. Not sure if that helps you, but just FYI.
You rang?
Who will track the president-elect’s every move if not for kooks who are distracted by the birth certificate issue? Anybody? Hello?
However, they have done an excellent job of not only connecting the dolts, but tightening them so hard they can’t undolt them.

David Attenborough is on the job.

I’ve tried everything as well. It’s not fair to have to look at Nute’s daughter every time. It really is not. That and it is quite a pain to follow along.
It was probably inevitable, RB.

It puts me in a total freak groove when the dots start staring me in the face.
What the… Homepage updated? All I had to do was post? Is this some sort of behavioral experiment?
I see even the community of whackjobs has elitists.
Yes. Expect an electric shock.
D’oh.
Yes. Expect an electric shock.
…well, as long as I get my food pellet, that’s OK, I guess

Matt and Jim – it takes time for the Sadly islamofascist homo conversion script to work it’s way through teh internets. As each server is infiltrated it turns Red and broadcasts “Allu Akbar!!”. But this takes time, have patience comrades.

Matt and Jim: I have the same problem with the front page with Google Chrome. IE7 works fine.
it worked! penis is the magic word to solve the home page snafu.
Matt and Jim: I have the same problem with Google Chrome. IE7 works fine, though. And FYWP for throwing away the first version of this comment.
Oh dear.
I fear my penis is broken.

Was it detachable? That happens sometimes.
I wanna know where the Goldfish Fanciers, the Discordian Society, and Betty and Barney Hill fit into this whole thing…
have you tried massaging it?
Connect the dots for too long, and the dots begin to stare you in the face.
How to handle wayward Dots.
In the wild, dots tend to avert their gaze, apparently considering staring at you in the face as too hostile a gesture.
And for an in-depth portrayal of dot mating behaviors, and also how to avoid hippie beatnik hairy squiggles, there’s this, which proves all conservatives are correct to be properly repressed.
Join the dots, people!
I mean badgers and pelicans.
Ack. Thpth. Ackph.
There is no evidence the Founders foresaw the advent of cloning. That of course is surreal.

Testing out the theory that posting a comment fixes Newt’s daughter.
You need to be careful with that stuff.
So, he’s basically saying, “The goat-blowers? Okay. Kiddie-diddlers? Sure, why not. But that guy who lets his dog do him in the butt is going too far!”
Oh. My. God. You realize what this means, don’t you? The whingetard gearchange is going to be from winding out in birth-certificate-second to grabbing the meat of Pammykins’-“Hussein-O-is-teh-alien-love-child-of-Malcolm-X” third. Mark my words. This could actually get even funnier after he’s sworn in.
snicker…
fwiw, My ipod is receiving the secret communist Sadly-Teh Buttocks signal just fine.
Any way you slice it, we are not optimistic about the next four to eight years. We can always hope for the best, bearing in mind that hope does not by itself produce pleasant surprises.
..yes, yes… hope away (bearing in mind that you’re an idiot)
OK, this has worked on two computers now. So you can’t see anything after Newt’s daughter until you post a comment and then the computer is OK. That’s…odd.
…bearing in mind that hope does not by itself produce pleasant surprises.
In fact, we conservatives discourage hope, preferring to wallow in belligerence, frustration, xenophobia, and despair.

All this would mean that — whatever inhibits Obama from going beyond what he has already discussed regarding this issue — it is not related to ineligibility for the office.
Ah, but what is it related to, and why do you fail to validate my insanity?!?!?!?
Conservatism is a batshit crazy conspiracy theory.
And the gentleman wins the Rock of Gibraltar!
FYWP.
Hmmm.
Rightard insanity is self validating and requires no external input, especially not facts or evidence which are antithetical to the wingnut worldview.
WordPress prefers dinner, a movie, and such as.
?!?!?!? = wingnut frothing (= insanity)
!?!?! = WTF (= incredulity)
We need some new punctuation, folks! .?! is not enough!!!
‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽
Better?
As negotiations continue, WordPress just released a number of comments from its hostage queue.
Hmm, it’s eaten the one at the top of the thread…
We need some new punctuation, folks! .?! is not enough!!!
We need to return to the roots of humanity and look to the click languages for our inspiration. Where !/#|| is a pronounceable word.

I think Yosemite Sam solved that.
On the bright side, with the Southern Republican Senators successfully blocking the auto bailout talks, looks like we’re in for a fun time as we teach those damned inefficient U.S. automakers and their fat and greedy unions some lessons, and as the cavalcade of liquidations, layoffs, defaults, collapses, and foreclosures follows in its wake and boosts unemployment by a 10th, at least we’ll have known that Honda and Toyota and Hyundai and Mercedes and BMW got really, really good deals from Southern states giving them billions of dollars in subsidies over the past decade and a half.
I had something funny to say, then I read this and slunk away feeling inadequate:
Oh Arky! Don’t be discouraged. Everyone knows you’re adequate.
Yay! Tonight is the first time since Pearl Harbor day that my home computer is able to see up-to-date posts on the S,N! homepage! Looks like my local DNS server has gotten the new improved Internets!
Well, the flying saucers are gone, but $29.99 for the shoot-out! $29.99!
J-
Is that your pistol you’re reaching for, or are you just reallly… OH MY FUCKING GOD!
I guess it’s just a theme.

Grandma Louellabi Giweequsayj’s Pagan Poop Swirl
Ingredients:
7 teaspoons spotty toucan
1 bag poop
1 zingy potato
2 portions damned cardinalfish brain, stuffed
1 teaspoon jasmine
Damn. They don’t sell zingy potatoes now, they’re out of season.
This is just a comment to see if I can get the front page to load.
Sorry for interrupting, you may now return to your conversation.
See, now your witty banter will be interrupted by bunches of lurkers dropping useless comments into the thread to see if it solves the front page problem.
Just like this.
(Btw, emptying the cache didn’t work).
OMG, it did work!
Oh, and, um, penis.
Banterruption.
Cleaning off the computer desktop and I found a recipe that requires a trash bag to prepare:
GLUP
1 BOX EACH OF THE FOLLOWING CEREALS: substitute as you deem necessary by types of cereals in your area
CRISPIX OR CHEX – RICE OR CORN
WHEAT CHEX
CRACKLIN BRAN
SUGAR PUFFS
GOLDEN GRAHAMS
CAPT. CRUNCH
SEASME STICKS – 2 POUNDS
CHEESE FISH – 1 BAG
PARMESIAN FISH – 1 BAG
MIXED NUTS – 1 POUND
CASHEWS – 1 POUND
BUTTER – 1 1/2 POUNDS
GARLIC POWDER – 4 TABLESPOONS
LIQUID SMOKE – 3 TABLESPOONS

MELT TOGETHER:
BUTTER – 1 1/2 POUNDS
GARLIC POWDER – 4 TABLESPOONS
LIQUID SMOKE – 3 TABLESPOONS
LEE & PAREN STEAK SAUCE – 2 TABLESPOONS
COMBINE TOGETHER ALL CEREALS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE CRACKLIN BRAN IN A LARGE TRASH BAG UNTIL CEREALS ARE EVENLY MIXED

ADD SAUCE TO CEREAL MIX, STIRRING CONSTANTLY.
BAKE AT 300 DEG. F FOR 15 MINUTES
FOLD OVER AND ADD IN THE CRACKLIN BRAN (ADDED AT THIS POINT TO PRECLUDE HOT SAUCE FROM DISOLVING CEREAL)
RETURN TO OVEN; FOLDING OVER EVERY 15 MINUTES FOR 1 HOUR
TURN OFF OVEN AND ALLOW TO COOL THOROUGHLY
STORE IN AIR TIGHT CONTAINERS
More wayward dots.
Banterus interruptus.
Just commenting to get teh internets to refresh so I don’t have to look at that Gingrich crazy. kthxbai.
For God’s sake, not even a poop joke.
Is Cracklin Bran a joke ingredient, or is it a real cereal?
(At first I thought it said ‘Cracklin Brain. That would be a good ingredient).
Co-wittus banterruptus, even.
You had me at “bag of poop”
Is Cracklin Bran a joke ingredient, or is it a real cereal?
I dunno. It might have been an Amber Pawlik recipe: http://www.sadlyno.com/archives/001377.html
So, riddle me this. How the fuck can these people find this thread to post in if nothing after Teh Ging-Witch shows up on their browser?
I’m so confused.
Somebody posted a link in the Jackie Gingrich thread.
Ah. The old sixth-dimensional timecube inversion ploy. The classics never get old.

What the… Homepage updated? All I had to do was post? Is this some sort of behavioral experiment?
Ok I’m trying it.
Truth sucks!
Nope.
Hmm. Cracklin Oat Bran is a real cereal. 1/7th fat. I am somewhat bemused by the idea of bran that crackles.
Oh, and justme: we could navigate to all of the newer posts from the Gingrich one, using the linkies at the top of the page. But it was a pain in the arse, because you had to go one-by-one to get to the latest. And on the front page, you couldn’t see anything after the Gingrich post, which was stuck at 136 comments.
Gotcha.
And speaking of poop,
“No, no, no. I said Golden Fleeces!”
I am somewhat alarmed by bran that crackles. It is not going to do good things in the intestines, you can bet.
I’m talking methane explosions here.
Like Mentos and Coke, but with dietary fibre!
Then again, that 14% fat could be pork fat. Yum, Crackling Bran!
Oh yeah, pork cracklins & bran to wash it out w/!!
Cocoa the badger just died enquiringly. What he had was an irradiated egg and if I had the money he would have lived many more minutes. He used to cross those feet with that sense of concentration each time he used the litter-box.
Image in post needs a little shopping – at a glance it looked like he had cracks in his lens (misread some light), now I think they would look quite appropriate for this guy.
In re: Conspiracy – funny how Vince Foster was definitely murdered even though 3 investigations said otherwise….but George W. Bush is definitely a constitutional President even though no investigations have been allowed to occur.
I guess that’s the secret…
In re: bailout, looks like the auto industry might actually get their loan from the Bush Administration re: TARP. Which is good and bad, but mostly good. I feel better about that money going to people who make something, even if it’s gaz-guzzling cars, than people who make pyramid schemes out of overpriced houses…
Brucetta: I’m still stuck on Gingrich and using the link.
Tried your method, didn’t work.
What the heck…
There were Muslim grad students in Oklahoma City, studying petroleum geology & similar hydrocarbon-production&destruction-related subjects. IIRC, most of the Muslim grad students in 1994 were Saudi or Indonesian, but to the fReichtards all Muslims are fungible, and also probably second cousins or at least prayer-group acquaintances. So, yeah, the first cable news reports on the OC bombings did speculate about dark-skinned jihadiis “taking revenge” for Gulf War Mark I, and some people will never give up that convenient belief.
Wow, that GLUP recipe would produce somewhere between 10 and 15 pounds of food-related product. That’s one heckofa volunteer-committee party… or enough to keep the Doughy Pantload busy for an entire afternoon!
??: Sorry, I don’t understand what’s going on at all. I tried commenting because some others upthread found it worked for them, and it did the trick for me.
From what I gather it’s a problem which may eventually take care of itself; the old gunk clogging up the tubes will get flushed out, or something.
I’m testing
Nope, I’ll try it on IE later. Not working on Firefox. I even had the teenager sit down and try and figure this out using all the tips here to no avail.
There’s no chance this will work.
Just another useless comment from a useless lurker who misses the front page and is tired of Jackie.

ZOMG. It works.
How odd.
Conservative motto:
If one has not cheated, he did not do everything he could to win.
Conservative Sociology:
One individual equals one fodder unit.
Conservative Philosophy:
It is a dog eat dog world. We are all cannibals now.
Conservative Religion:
God said I can do whatever I want to do, while anyone else better not try.
Conservative Math:
2 + 2 = 5 in all cases.
Conservative Saying:
Honesty is the enemy of a free market
Conservative Politics:
“It’s just a goddamn piece of paper!” (in reference to the Constitution)
Conservative justification for war:
Overwhelming force against a poverty struck third world nation to turn an eleven to fifteen trillion dollar profit.
Ancient axiom:
“What man speak with forked tongue.” (always, forever, unrelenting)
Conservative Economics:
What’s mine is mine, and yours is too.
Conservative Rights:
Nothing less than the absolute right to exploit, (without consequence,) everyone, everywhere, and at any time.
Conservative Belief:
People who are different from my friends and I are the enemy.
Conservative Writing:
There is not a deception that has ever been communicated that we haven’t used.
Conservative Credo:
One’s rights are proportionally diminished by the degree of difference between what we tell fodder units is right and what they believe.
With the auto bailout struggling, there is no longer any doubt that Republicans are now going for the Hitler in the bunker sore loser strategy.
The good news is, the conservatives will get their pills first.
¿?
So this entire stuck on Gingwitch thing was a trick by Gavin to get the lurkers to come out and play.
Nicely done, G!
Just a test to see if Gingrich’s daughter will quit haunting me. Sorry for the interuption.
Bad news on the doorstep…
Shorter Senate Pukes: Sure, we’re for bailing out the finance industry so that the tycoon class can get their bonuses, and stockholders can get their dividends. But we draw the line when it comes to letting union schlubs keep their jobs! HARUMPH!
In re: Conspiracy – funny how Vince Foster was definitely murdered even though 3 investigations said otherwise
but but but don’t you get it? KKKlinton fized those investigations so they’d show nothing! His thuggish Southern Democrat attitude scared them away from the truth! He’d have “disappeared” them just like THOUSANDS OTHERS if they had crossed him!!11
See? See? “Innocence” just proves there was a conspiracy!
Shorter GOP Senators:
“Auto Workers? Fuck off and die. This is a center-right country!!!”
Testing, testing.
It worked! Goodbye, Jackie.

Vince Foster is alive and well and living in the tribal areas of Pakistan. The ‘Vince Foster’ was vat-grown replicant. As soon as The One is in power Vince will come forth with his hordes of Islamofascist allies and Sharia will descend on us all. It’s been years in the making.
