I DO think about those poor. oppressed Americans who do not want health insurance. I think they’re nuts.
On the other hand, I’d really like to met one of them. Because, in 50 years on this planet, I’ve never come across anyone over the age of 13 who did not want health insurance.
Wait, this is all a trick, isn’t it? “Let’s see if we can make the mummy click through to this site and thus infect her computer with amazing illnesses!” (It is “illnesses,” isn’t it? Although no wisdom, no knowledge, no technology is beyond my grasp, the vocabulary is sometimes difficult…).
Do people fail to understand just how hard it is to get the Geek Squad out to the fastness of my desert tomb? Especially once it’s understood that they may well be killed to protect its location? *Sigh* Perhaps Thoth will have good ideas about curing these illnesses…
That is dynamite. Looks like somebody saved a copy of one of the dozen crappy Socialist People’s Front/People’s Front of Socialism party websites out there, added a list of the Progressive Caucus members to it, then made a PDF of the whole thing. Just 5 minutes of work to get the kerning keyboard kommando’s on the case.
They will pretend to be socialists as long as they have to, then will reveal their communism.
Somebody should do some kind of poll. Find all the people who talk like this, send them a message asking them to describe what socialism and communism mean. I’m curious what it is the hardcore haters think that they’re hating.
“I’m curious what it is the hardcore haters think that they’re hating.”
They don’t think. They just hate. I’ve seen People on YouTube try to explain the differences but they just don’t care. I know it’s a little clichéd but they just lump everything together as “Other”. We are liberals, we are not of their tribe and that’s all they need to know.
This morning, hubby was wondering why the Tea Partiers aren’t upset about the controversy over the Mosque at Ground Zero. Silly man! Tea Partiers care about the Constitution…until they dont.

I swear those fuckheads look to their supposed political enemies and choose the opposing side just to be contrary assholes. They wrote a letter to the FCC demanding that the government not interfere with the internet by mandating net neutrality.
No single teahadist is intelligent enough to think anything through and figure it out. They don’t know jack shit about America, the Constitution, our government system, or soap.
tsam, I was just thinking about what you said this morning. Modern conservatism is not based on any set of principles. It’s just about sticking it to people you don’t like. And that’s IT. Sayud.

I’m pretty sure both sides engage in that to some degree, but the conservatives are the ultimate nihilists. I think the lapel pin crap might be a grade school level demonstration of just how depraved their leadership indisputably is, and how incredibly unskilled in critical thought their followers are.

Silly lib. The First Amendment says “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or preventing the free exercise thereof…”. It doesn’t say anything about the President doing it by Executive Order, does it? Huh? Your silence proves that you can’t address my post.

So true. I don’t care about mere doctrine… my only purpose in life is to reduce all puny humans to groveling sycophants who tremble in awe at the limitless evil of leftist power.
I’m here. I don’t like wingnuts neither. Its all about staking out ground now that troops are coming back from Iraq. By the time November rolls around, the democratic candidates can say “see, we’re getting out of Iraq, like we promised.” and repugnicants will say “see, al kay-duh is in manhattan!” Now I’m supposed to say sumpin funny…um…I’m proud to be at the nadir of journalism.

YES…we’ll start by trumping up an enemy–make it appear much larger than it really is. Next we’ll engage in endless wars and ramp up the fear campaign. We’ll question the patriotism of those who aren’t on board. We can use teh gheys to distract the dumber ones. We’ll abuse our power by creating prisons outside the country. We can torture people. We’ll quell dissent. We’ll just keep incrementally eroding the Constitution until…
I liked this guy: “Judging by this post and many others you have made recently, you must have been instructed to go into high gear as the election nears. Your posts are all aimed at defending the indefensible and your sputtering attempts to undermine your opponents are becoming laughable.
Do you really think that such trite manipulations are enough for this crowd?
Back to the drawing board tiny troll. Perhaps there’s still time to think of something more effective.”
I can’t wait for one these ignorant fucks to use a sentence like:
“The threat of Islam is dire and we need a final solution to solve it.”
Given the polling numbers it’ll be soon.
Congrats Republicans! Your destruction of the education system in the United States is now complete. After your early victory of turning the mentally ill into Religious zealots, Reagan’s true legacy, you appear poised to lead the U.S. into whatever violence fits your fancy.
So Republicans, what will be your final solution to the ‘Muslim Problem’?
God, I followed the link to Gateway Pundit’s “First Things” post(didn’t that used to be a somewhat respectable and thoughtful magazine?) and read the comments. HOLY SHIT these are the dumbest, most gullible people ever. They pule about the congressmen on the obviously fake list (Scribd? Jesus.) breaking their oaths to uphold the Constitution(by not being Republicans, I guess) and then demand they be killed without a trial. Remember, these ignorant motherfuckers vote!

Funny coming from some gomer who, no doubt, wants to make abortion illegal.
It’s a good thing you aren’t online, Sub, or you might have clicked on the link to Andy McCarthy explaining how, thanks to Obama, every taxpayer is responsible for that girl getting her nose cut off.
Everything you wanted to know about Laura Schlessinger. Ok, probably more than you wanted to know.
“If you’re gay or a lesbian, it’s a biological error that inhibits you from relating normally to the opposite sex. The fact that you are intelligent, creative and valuable is all true. The error is in your inability to relate sexually intimately, in a loving way to a member of the opposite sex — it is a biological error.”
I confess, I am online. I was making a joke! I followed through to K-Lo’s Anne Rice piece:
I pray Anne Rice will join so many of us on her knees in front of a tabernacle, the most powerful place on earth, before too long, offering Him all the anger, and confusion, and discomfort.

Don’t forget removing the 14th Amendment. That way only the “right people” can be citizens. Fucking tool. Not even enough power to realize he’s squealing about the wet dream material his own ideologues promote.
There is an Ikea close by to me near the Mall of America. I like Ikea, my PC desk and chair I’m sitting on are all from there. I don’t go to the MoA though, except to walk through on my way to Ikea. I can get there by taking the light rail. The one thing that Jesse Ventura did right while in office.
I’ve been to the one in Houston…it was kind of a surreal experience, and now I know why they have a cafeteria there. I think we were there, like, thirteen hours.
BTW, while I found More Information That You Require tiringly twee by the end, John Hodgman has a hilarious bit about MoA in it.
It’s not actually *in* the mall of America. It’s next door across the highway. Ikea is mostly cheap crap but you can find inexpensive stuff that’s not quite so crappy. They have a cafeteria but that is also cheap crappy institutional food. If you really miss high school lunch I recommend it.
But for me what I hate is that the light rail station is in the MoA and you have to walk through it to get to Ikea. You know, where Sarah Palin appeared. They’ve probably erected a shrine or statue or something for her for all I know.
Well, I can see the bad tag, but I can’t do shit about it. I had no idea you could break a whole thread like that. Neato. Might have to try it on some , um, more deserving blogs, ifyanowhatimeanandithinkyoudo.
If anyone is around that might be able to edit it, FF view source puts it at line 982 column 54-59.
Oh, and Ikea does have some reasonable kitchen stuff. I’ve been meaning to pop out there and up my supply of small glass bowls, among a few other things. It’s just wrong to go there on a weekend though.
I thank doG and our bold italic overlords that I know nothing of Justin Bieber other than that the FBI is now tracking me as a kiddie pr0n suspect for having clicked that link. FY “Willy” with a ginormous Justin Bieber replicock.

The Other 'Historic' Choice: How Hillary Would Have Governed
Ever since June, when Bill Clinton criticized (however obliquely) Obama’s handling of the Gulf oil spill, there has been renewed chatter concerning a Hillary candidacy in 2012. Hillary could take advantage of a weakened president with plummeting approval ratings to achieve her own ambitions — or save her party from the aforementioned weakened president, depending on the viewpoint. Whether this is a plausible theory or not is debatable, but it does bring to mind something else: What kind of presidency would a Hillary victory in 2008 have produced? How much better or worse off would the nation be at this point? The most likely conclusion: We’d probably be exactly where we are right now — just less annoyed, and perhaps less fragmented as a people. [bla bla bla, edited by the management. –S,N!]
I’d just like to report that I was un-friended by one of my old high school co-graduates (never a friend, really) who posted some stupid “how insensitive to build the GZM” post and I called ’em on it. Might have used the word “bullshit” in there. Made the point that if two blocks is too close, how is five or fifty or five hundred miles any different?
He deleted that post, to which I replied “Ooh, shame on ME” and then, *snif* I was un-friended!
Now for the 76 other teatards I graduated with.
PS: I did send him a nasty personal note after that commending him on his bravery.
Now you kids have gone and done it. When Dad gets home he’s gonna be soooo pissed. I mean, usually he passes out in the living room but… you’ll be in trouble!
Whatever stupid people who don’t live on the West coast or Hawaii or Alaska. Go ahead and sleep. I’m just gonna type me some struckass comments that mean virtually nothing. Just like before only faster and with striking.
Whale Chowder, I’ve defriended a few people who had turned into howling racists since I’d known them in college. I may have had a few who defriended me over politics, but if they did, they did so quietly. I’m actually surprised my politics haven’t scared off more people I knew in high school.
One guy I knew in high school defriended me because I liked Tom Waits. That was weird.
This is bizarre. Opera must be suppressing the busted tag ’cause all the text has been behaving like it ought to (mostly normal except for a few strikeouts and the like).
Whale Chowder, I’ve defriended a few people who had turned into howling racists since I’d known them in college.
I’ve done the same thing here to at least two people. Interesting thing, facebook; a lot of people who are very meek and soft-spoken in real life turn into howling banshees on there.
Sadly, No! The finest in Snark!

A column debunking myths about unjustly stereotyped millionaires. (Has anyone ever bothered to do a column like this about homeless people, or poor people, or working class people? Just curious).
“5. Millionaires All Drive Fancy Cars
You can get that idea of the rich guy in a fancy German car out of your head when you think of a millionaire: They actually drive a Ford, with the carmaker topping the millionaire preferred car list at 9.4 percent.”
And the reason it caught my attention is because of a story I heard from a millionaire’s kid I befriended in college about another millionaire’s kid from the Deep South that she was dating at the time. Apparently, the guy’s family owned a string of BMW dealerships and owned several Beemers, but they also bought a Ford and usually drove around in that so that they “wouldn’t look like elitists.”
I wonder how that factors in. Wouldn’t it be easier for them if they just dropped the act – on racism, on elitism, on everything?

Poor rich people. They’ve worked exceptionally hard to drain that wealth out of the middle class in the last 50 years and nobody appreciates their toil.
It’s kind of a combo fuckup. WordPress shouldn’t allow the Tag of Evil in input, and your web browser shouldn’t treat the Tag of Evil the way it does. It doesn’t happen in Opera, The Browser For Sticklers (TM).
In firefox, if you have firequery, you can run (removing spaces around the style tags):
jQuery(” * { text-decoration: none !important; font-weight: normal !important; font-style: normal !important; }”).appendTo(“head”);
There is no unfucking it through inputting stuff because anything that would unfuck it *does* get stripped out by wordpress’ input filter.

There’s logic behind this, believe it or not. The thinking at my MIS dept is that by staying one browser behind, we will have fewer virus and worm attacks, since coders hack the latest versions to exploit undiscovered security holes, leaving older ones behind.

If by “logic,” you mean “utter stupidity,” then I suppose they’re right.
Alternatively, they could JUST USE A DECENT BROWSER.

That would require work on their part, because you can actually customize Firefox et al, which means each user would eventually have their own configuration, meaning the MIS folks wouldn’t be able to copy and paste settings or have much control over the innertubes.
The odd thing is, I have FF installed on my system, but when I try to use it, things get all hinky, and I end up slinking back over to IE. It’s almost as if they expect me to concentrate on work…
I disagree with every word T&U just said, but I will defend with my life her right to laugh at your IE7.
Admittedly, using an older version does make perverse sense, but again, why not just use a more secure browser?

No, no, no. Einstein isn’t evil — he’s a liberal and the Theory of Relativity is plot to get everyone to accept relativism. Phylis Schlafley’s son says so…
Hey, Wizbang-it’s Democrat party, remember? Didn’t you get the memo? Sounds like someone’s going to spend some Apology Time with El Rushbo tonight…
Are we talking special or general? Generals are always special in American lore, but once the relativism really kicks in we get confused.

Special or general doesn’t register; like Ecuadorans or Guatemalans, they’re all Mexicans, so who gives a shit.

Silly lib. The First Amendment says “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or preventing the free exercise thereof…”. It doesn’t say anything about the President doing it by Executive Order, does it? Huh? Your silence proves that you can’t address my post.

From the Wizbang comments section:
So true. I don’t care about mere doctrine… my only purpose in life is to reduce all puny humans to groveling sycophants who tremble in awe at the limitless evil of leftist power.
I’m here. I don’t like wingnuts neither. Its all about staking out ground now that troops are coming back from Iraq. By the time November rolls around, the democratic candidates can say “see, we’re getting out of Iraq, like we promised.” and repugnicants will say “see, al kay-duh is in manhattan!” Now I’m supposed to say sumpin funny…um…I’m proud to be at the nadir of journalism.

YES…we’ll start by trumping up an enemy–make it appear much larger than it really is. Next we’ll engage in endless wars and ramp up the fear campaign. We’ll question the patriotism of those who aren’t on board. We can use teh gheys to distract the dumber ones. We’ll abuse our power by creating prisons outside the country. We can torture people. We’ll quell dissent. We’ll just keep incrementally eroding the Constitution until…
HEY–wait a minute!
From the Wizbang comments section:
I liked this guy: “Judging by this post and many others you have made recently, you must have been instructed to go into high gear as the election nears. Your posts are all aimed at defending the indefensible and your sputtering attempts to undermine your opponents are becoming laughable.
Do you really think that such trite manipulations are enough for this crowd?
Back to the drawing board tiny troll. Perhaps there’s still time to think of something more effective.”

I can’t wait for one these ignorant fucks to use a sentence like:
“The threat of Islam is dire and we need a final solution to solve it.”
Given the polling numbers it’ll be soon.
Congrats Republicans! Your destruction of the education system in the United States is now complete. After your early victory of turning the mentally ill into Religious zealots, Reagan’s true legacy, you appear poised to lead the U.S. into whatever violence fits your fancy.
So Republicans, what will be your final solution to the ‘Muslim Problem’?
Note to self: bring booze.
God, I followed the link to Gateway Pundit’s “First Things” post(didn’t that used to be a somewhat respectable and thoughtful magazine?) and read the comments. HOLY SHIT these are the dumbest, most gullible people ever. They pule about the congressmen on the obviously fake list (Scribd? Jesus.) breaking their oaths to uphold the Constitution(by not being Republicans, I guess) and then demand they be killed without a trial. Remember, these ignorant motherfuckers vote!
Also, has anyone seen this nut and Steve Forbes together in the same place ever?

Oh, I think Anne Rice has already written about the undead who feed on our anger, and confusion, and discomfort.
“Geppetto dreams of the day, but not yet.”

Once again, I must face the sad truth that the WWE has misled me.
Once again, I must face the sad truth that the WWE has misled me.
Wait. What? Misled? What are you talking about?
Ikea. I hear Smedvik is a cutie.
The nearest Ikea is 8 hours away….
I am so upset about the lack of Ikea here that I forgot to close my tags!
TUTAGFAIL!
Oh, I seen. Never mind.
Imma gonna go back to looking at sofas online I can’t afford now…
Mah Pill!
“The nearest Ikea is 8 hours away….”
There is an Ikea close by to me near the Mall of America. I like Ikea, my PC desk and chair I’m sitting on are all from there. I don’t go to the MoA though, except to walk through on my way to Ikea. I can get there by taking the light rail. The one thing that Jesse Ventura did right while in office.
I didn’t know there was an Ikea in the MoA.
I’ve been to the one in Houston…it was kind of a surreal experience, and now I know why they have a cafeteria there. I think we were there, like, thirteen hours.
BTW, while I found More Information That You Require tiringly twee by the end, John Hodgman has a hilarious bit about MoA in it.
Um, that was me.
Speaking of twee, OMFG I CAN FUCKING HAZ?
In a girly-tee version, though?
I only reveal my communism after I’ve had a few drinks…
Using this as the thinnest of justifications to show you all this: Soviet History, Tetrisized.
“I didn’t know there was an Ikea in the MoA.”
It’s not actually *in* the mall of America. It’s next door across the highway. Ikea is mostly cheap crap but you can find inexpensive stuff that’s not quite so crappy. They have a cafeteria but that is also cheap crappy institutional food. If you really miss high school lunch I recommend it.
But for me what I hate is that the light rail station is in the MoA and you have to walk through it to get to Ikea. You know, where Sarah Palin appeared. They’ve probably erected a shrine or statue or something for her for all I know.
Well, I can see the bad tag, but I can’t do shit about it. I had no idea you could break a whole thread like that. Neato. Might have to try it on some , um, more deserving blogs, ifyanowhatimeanandithinkyoudo.
If anyone is around that might be able to edit it, FF view source puts it at line 982 column 54-59.
Oh, and Ikea does have some reasonable kitchen stuff. I’ve been meaning to pop out there and up my supply of small glass bowls, among a few other things. It’s just wrong to go there on a weekend though.
I will never be defeated.
A futile attempt at tag closure. WP eated my other try, but I’m going to give it another go.

Curiously, WFP feels comfortable editing my tags, but not the one what got this started.

So that was Comic Sans on the floor in there. And I guess that was Ariel bold italics in the wood chipper. And those three Bauhaus fonts in Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money. There’s more to life than a little money, you know. And here ya are, and it’s a beautiful day. Well. I just don’t understand it.
Ever since June, when Bill Clinton criticized (however obliquely) Obama’s handling of the Gulf oil spill, there has been renewed chatter concerning a Hillary candidacy in 2012. Hillary could take advantage of a weakened president with plummeting approval ratings to achieve her own ambitions — or save her party from the aforementioned weakened president, depending on the viewpoint. Whether this is a plausible theory or not is debatable, but it does bring to mind something else: What kind of presidency would a Hillary victory in 2008 have produced? How much better or worse off would the nation be at this point? The most likely conclusion: We’d probably be exactly where we are right now — just less annoyed, and perhaps less fragmented as a people. [bla bla bla, edited by the management. –S,N!]

I’d just like to report that I was un-friended by one of my old high school co-graduates (never a friend, really) who posted some stupid “how insensitive to build the GZM” post and I called ’em on it. Might have used the word “bullshit” in there. Made the point that if two blocks is too close, how is five or fifty or five hundred miles any different?
He deleted that post, to which I replied “Ooh, shame on ME” and then, *snif* I was un-friended!
Now for the 76 other teatards I graduated with.
PS: I did send him a nasty personal note after that commending him on his bravery.

Wow, this is like nine innings of strikeouts. Or even a three game series!
Whale Chowder, I’ve defriended a few people who had turned into howling racists since I’d known them in college. I may have had a few who defriended me over politics, but if they did, they did so quietly. I’m actually surprised my politics haven’t scared off more people I knew in high school.
One guy I knew in high school defriended me because I liked Tom Waits. That was weird.

Ah. The Italicized Font Workers Local 206 has been emboldened to go on strike. Is there a line we shouldn’t be crossing?
This thread is a font of bold humor that crosses the line.
I am struck by the fact that the slanted humor of the place boldly shines through the worst of calamities.

I said “You want me to play on a sloped field, baby.”

You entered “” to close the tag instead of “”. WP goes bonkers when you do that. I was thinking of filing a bug report but figured, nah, this could be so much fun at other sites!

A column debunking myths about unjustly stereotyped millionaires. (Has anyone ever bothered to do a column like this about homeless people, or poor people, or working class people? Just curious).
Mah espadrille!
The line that caught my attention was this;
“5. Millionaires All Drive Fancy Cars
You can get that idea of the rich guy in a fancy German car out of your head when you think of a millionaire: They actually drive a Ford, with the carmaker topping the millionaire preferred car list at 9.4 percent.”
And the reason it caught my attention is because of a story I heard from a millionaire’s kid I befriended in college about another millionaire’s kid from the Deep South that she was dating at the time. Apparently, the guy’s family owned a string of BMW dealerships and owned several Beemers, but they also bought a Ford and usually drove around in that so that they “wouldn’t look like elitists.”
I wonder how that factors in. Wouldn’t it be easier for them if they just dropped the act – on racism, on elitism, on everything?
Testing
Curiouser and curiouser. A mystery wrapped within an enigma preceded by a boorish copy/paste troll.
A column debunking myths about unjustly stereotyped millionaires. (Has anyone ever bothered to do a column like this about homeless people, or poor people, or working class people? Just curious).
Hey, man, beating up on strawmen isn’t charity.
A column debunking myths about unjustly stereotyped millionaires. (Has anyone ever bothered to do a column like this about homeless people, or poor people, or working class people? Just curious).
Poor rich people. They’ve worked exceptionally hard to drain that wealth out of the middle class in the last 50 years and nobody appreciates their toil.
It’s kind of a combo fuckup. WordPress shouldn’t allow the Tag of Evil in input, and your web browser shouldn’t treat the Tag of Evil the way it does. It doesn’t happen in Opera, The Browser For Sticklers (TM).
In firefox, if you have firequery, you can run (removing spaces around the style tags):
jQuery(” * { text-decoration: none !important; font-weight: normal !important; font-style: normal !important; }”).appendTo(“head”);
There is no unfucking it through inputting stuff because anything that would unfuck it *does* get stripped out by wordpress’ input filter.
Input validation is hard! Let’s go shopping!

Safari is even more fucked, though. It sees the blockquote tagfail that the others don’t.
Chrome too also.
Its the end of the world as we know it,
And I feel fine
Oooh, Chrome gets the <code> tagfail too. I don’t know if it’s better or worse than the bolditalics.
Clearly the answer to this is to casually failbomb as many WfP blogs as possible until people piss and moan enough for them to fucking fix it.

Also, The Malkinthing’s site is wordpress, but I can’t figure out how to sign up.
Sigh, all for naught.
Crikey, go away for a day or two & everything turns to shit, as usual.
Objection…witness is assuming it wasn’t shit when s/he left
Seems like shit & trouble everywhere I go.
Posting in an EPIC Thread. I’ve seen a lotta tag fails before, but this is surely the first tag WIN.
Still borked? Awesome.
Fonterdammerung?

Best. Comments. Evah!
Unbold, dammit! Unstrike through, dammit!
My work here is done.
smedley, I wish that computers worked like that. I would have done much better in my web design class last semester…not that I didn’t try yelling…
These comments are good news for John McCain.
Wow, justme has a lot to say!
Are there any more html tags we can abuse?
I’m on STRIKE, myself.
There’s the blink tag….
The tags have revolted! They’ve thrown off the chains of their oppressors and are now rising up against us!
</strike> </bold> </i> </madness>
I blame DK-W’s mom for this. She needs to put out more to keep the tags down.
I’m just gonna test something out. It probably won’t do anything – which I guess is par for my commentary.
You can’t keep a fucked-up tag down.
It probably won’t do anything – which I guess is par for my
commentarylife.FIXED!
The WP problem – could it have been a spell gone wrong?
Oh dear. This is a serious problem if I can’t slam DK-W properly.
MR SADLY,NO! FIX THIS WALL!
BTW – no tag problem here. Youse guys still have it?
Yup. What browser are you running, Peej?
It’s fucked up in Chrome and Firefox.
Isn’t a Wiccan somebody who works for Wikipedia?
I’ve got STRIKE, ITAL, and an indent going on under IE 7
Me, too. Also, bold.
” IE 7″
I just got my morning guffaw.
BOLD stopped at this post
This would be awesomest if it all got translated into Italian too.
Hm, I still have bold. Weird.
bold, ital, strike is my new normal
I just got my morning guffaw.
There’s logic behind this, believe it or not. The thinking at my MIS dept is that by staying one browser behind, we will have fewer virus and worm attacks, since coders hack the latest versions to exploit undiscovered security holes, leaving older ones behind.

If by “logic,” you mean “utter stupidity,” then I suppose they’re right.
Alternatively, they could JUST USE A DECENT BROWSER.
I disagree with every word T&U just said, but I will defend with my life her right to laugh at your IE7.

My employer is on IE6.0 for that reason, though I surf on FF.
Alternatively, they could JUST USE A DECENT BROWSER.
That would require work on their part, because you can actually customize Firefox et al, which means each user would eventually have their own configuration, meaning the MIS folks wouldn’t be able to copy and paste settings or have much control over the innertubes.
The odd thing is, I have FF installed on my system, but when I try to use it, things get all hinky, and I end up slinking back over to IE. It’s almost as if they expect me to concentrate on work…
I disagree with every word T&U just said, but I will defend with my life her right to laugh at your IE7.
Admittedly, using an older version does make perverse sense, but again, why not just use a more secure browser?

I see…
Eet’s jes fine iin my Opera! Last night it was fekked up in the very same browser instance – can’t remember if I closed that tab and started fresh this a.m…… .
“There’s logic behind this, believe it or not. The thinking at my MIS dept is that by staying one browser behind, we will have fewer virus and worm attacks, since coders hack the latest versions to exploit undiscovered security holes, leaving older ones behind.”
I think my dad used that logic to keep us from getting a color TV until 1970.
Update: just scrolled through the entire thread and found NO broken tag artifacts. Also just looked in Chrome – TAG FAIL!
OPERA R00LZ!
“OPERA R00LZ!”
Space Opera Droolz!
I blame Albert Einstein. Stupid science and its stupid “relativity”. There should be one standard browser and one set of tags and you dirty fucking hippies should get over your Islamofeminazifascist ways.
“There should be one standard browser and one set of tags”
Ein Volk! Ein Reich! Ein IE!
Not PENIS. Served at tea parties everywhere!
Bold, italic, strike for this FF using (hmmm, sometimes FF playing) liberal-arts faggot (don’t get too sciencey on me). I wondered why there was no new thread but more than 400 on this one!
I just sent an email to a co-worker, forgetting that she’s on vacation.
She sits 5 feet away from me. Admittedly, there’s a wall between us, but still.
I’m officially tired of this.
Holy crap. Now everything is a blockquote.
“She sits 5 feet away from me. Admittedly, there’s a wall between us, but still.”
T&U TERA DOWN THIS WALL.
’cause we want pictures of hot, sweaty chix covered with gypsum dust.
Safari has all the itals, bold and strikes, along with text in Courier. I’m on a Mac, YMMV.
FF (Mac) has all the stuff but Courier. No blockquote that I see.
What if they abandoned us and it will be like this forever and ever??!!
“What if they abandoned us and it will be like this forever and ever??!!”
Then we live out our lives in a Randian paradise without rules, order, or the use of tags.
“Then we live out our lives in a Randian paradise without rules, order, or the use of tags.”
Going Alt?

I don’t like that. Not at all.
It’s fucking FREEZING in here.
NYAH NYAH NYAH NYAH
/Opera fanboi
“It’s fucking FREEZING in here.”
Are there more pictures forthcoming? Don’t worry, the naughty bits will be struck-through.
“Are there more pictures forthcoming?”
Um, “more”?
I *knew* I shouldn’t have had that 5th tequila shot…
‘Um, “more”? ‘
You know, after the pictures of you wielding a 9-pound hammer.
“You know, after the pictures of you wielding a 9-pound hammer.”
Oh. Somebody had better snap those fast, because I’ll get about four swings in and then want a cocktail.
…you wielding a 9-pound hammer.
Your opinion of Mr. T&U is mighty high, sir.
You know, after the pictures of you wielding a 9-pound hammer.
Just can’t quite the demolition pr0n, can you?

Les deux jours de FUBARthread!
Zut alors! Tabarnacle! Merde!
“Quit.” I meant “quit.”
*blames it on DT’s*
Speaking of which, you know what I need in my life right now? A big dose of breaking shit. Seriously.
The Algonquin Kiddie Table–meanwhile–is appealingly free of italics, Bold and strike. Hint hint. Feel free to start a new thread.
I command thee to cut this shit out!!!!!!
“You know, after the pictures of you wielding a 9-pound hammer.”
*GASP*
You PROMISED those pictures would remain private, T&U!!!!!
Heh. Still all fucked up. How about just posting a new thread and seeing what happens?
How can a fucking airport shuttle be so goddamn complicated, you fucking morons?
God said,

Look, cut the resurrection crap, just let this one stay dead.
Oh, we’re back! How nice. I was Jonesing pretty badly for some PENIS of the D-KW variety.

Um, that is, ….. I mean ….
It even gives the time you get to the airport! You’ve flown before, moron! How long does it take for you to check in?
“Um, that is, ….. I mean ….”
Oh I think we know what you mean, sir!
“How long does it take for you to check in?”
It’s like rain on your wedding day.
I just hate it when people who are supposed to be smart can’t exercise basic critical thinking skills and make a big deal out of shit that’s not a big deal at all.
I liked that not one thing in that song was actually ironic.
“I liked that not one thing in that song was actually ironic.”
Ironic, don’t you think?
Well, yeah. It actually just sucked.
“Ironic, don’t you think?”
Maybe Alanis Morisette was doing some kind of meta-piece…

That’s her story, that the irony is in it not being ironic (altho parts of it could be construed as metaphysical irony, like the death row pardon bit), but a song not about irony is called “Ironic”.
“That’s her story, that the irony is in it not being ironic (altho parts of it could be construed as metaphysical irony, like the death row pardon bit), but a song not about irony is called ‘Ironic’.”
Really? I just thought she was dumb.
I never minded the song; just wish she’d titled it accurately, like “Isn’t It Sucky” or something like that.
“Really? I just thought she was dumb.”
She was nineteen when she wrote the song. By definition, she was dumb.
Altho you have to admit, a guy dying in a plane crash on his first flight after avoiding flying all his life is pretty close to irony.
“She was nineteen when she wrote the song. By definition, she was dumb.”
Excellent point.
So is there somebody’s house we could all go hang out at until this whole thing blows over?
My eyes are starting to bleed a little.

YAY! No mo strikethrough!
Our dear bloggingcritters would pick now as the time to get writers’ block.

I know what you mean. It’s too early for a big meal..
Eeeeeees Fiiiix!!!!!!!
Hoorah! Pip pip!
I shall go ahead and blame all the HTML-shenanigans for the server breaking down (damn you, you crazy kids), but am happy to report that I have fixed your messes!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAY.
Thanks, Seb! (I’m assuming).
but am happy to report that I have fixed your messes!
Surrrrrrrrrrre, blame us who have zero access to your server-side software. Next, you’ll tell us we were trying to build a mosque here.
but am happy to report that I have fixed your messes!
*checks pants* No you didn’t!
Thanks Mom.
Pop Tarts?
To sum it up as our German hosting company put it:
So there you have it.
I give it ten minutes before the whole fucker falls apart again.
*checks pants* No you didn’t!
You’re a big boy. Didies are on the top shelf, next to the enemas.
To sum it up as our German hosting company put it:
You entrust your liberal snarkcastic blog to GERMANS?????
Gee…why not have the Brits serve as chefs?
That’s what it said in English. In German, it’s just one word.
I’m gonna fuck you up.

Don’t even pretend you didn’t like it.
As a rule, I don’t click on any “enema” links.

Whose?

I think that’s an excellent policy.
Whose?
Actor’s, apparently. I think he tried to imply that I’m a fatass, too.
Mama didn’t raise no enema-clickin’ fool.
Actor’s, apparently. I think he tried to imply that I’m a fatass, too.
Why, no! I merely have, um, small hands.
o/~ Sit on my hands, and tell me that you love me. I’ll sit on your hands, and tell you I do toooooooo o/~
Get up early for once, & no Sadly, No!, sadly.
Now because I got up so effing early … the mind is deader than usual. Not that anyone else is offering much.
Y’know, now that it’s all just a fading memory, I sort of wish I’d taken screenshots.How’s that?
I’m a fatass
Like a fatwa, only more american.
Why, no! I merely have, um, small hands.
You’re a terrible liar.
How’s that?
Needs more Teletype.
Like a fatwa, only more american.
The process is much tastier, too!
For my next trick I will need a volunteer from the audience….
Please, just go to a bar or somewhere instead – the audience doesn’t even want to know about your perversions much less participate. Besides, isn’t that what groupies are for?
Actor’s, apparently. I think he tried to imply that I’m a fatass, too.
Given that it’s Actor, it’s safer to assume that you sat down before he could slide his lap into the seat, too and he’s just cranky.
I merely have, um, small hands.
Small feet too, I surmise.
Small feet too, I surmise.
Eleven triple E. Why did you want to know?
You know what they say about about a man with big feet…..
Big feet. Big shoes.
Eleven triple E. Why did you want to know?
His groupies were asking…
Oh, I know where the enemas are. They’re hanging from the curtain rod in Frank’s shower.
Phooey, I preferred the thread before it was “fixed”.

Now our demented overlords know that they can coast for days without content. “Just let them play with broken tags for a while.” It was a fun thread though.

This is similar to how I treat my cat. When it’s time for a new cat toy I just look to see what broken shit I have lying around that he can’t kill himself with.
Well, easily kill himself with, at least.
Too bad they don’t have a video of someone jiggling keys; we’d be entertained foe hours.
