Four Horseman of the Apocalypse Sighted
ABOVE: K-Loaded
Seriously, I’m expecting the sky to cleave open at any minute and for the four horsemen of the apocalypse to come galloping over the clouds. K-Lo, over at America’s Shittiest Website™ (aka America’s Most Excruciatingly Slow Website™) has cited a statement of the National Organization for Women. Approvingly. It’s like hearing Brent Bozell confess a fondness for Allen Ginsburg’s “Howl,” seeing Tony Perkins reading Edmund White’s A Boy’s Own Story or discovering an essay by Megan McArdle on the role of the Aristotelian unities in the tragedies of Racine. In French.
The statement in question is NOW’s denunciation of the evil people at Gawker for revealing to the world that Christine O’Donnell once dressed up like a ladybug, got liquored up, picked up a guy and tried to bed him. Of course, my eschatological fantasy dissolved immediately when K-Lo engaged in that awesome wingnut superpower of mindreading.
I wonder if they would have issued the statement if Chris Coons weren’t so ahead in the polls.
Okay, two can play this game. I wonder whether K-Lo would have said this if Christine O’Donnell were ahead in the polls. Or if the Gawker piece detailed a 24-hour meth-fueled orgy with Barney Frank in a French maid’s outfit and GLAAD issued a statement about the harassment of gay politicians.
Here’s another thing I wonder with respect to all the howls of outrage at the Gawker piece. This is a situation where Christine O’Donnell publicly preached that sex outside of marriage is so bad that even to touch your own thingy down there is a sinful act of infidelity that makes the angels weep, the devils high-five each other in Hell, and more hair sprout on your palm than you’ll find on an unwaxed hooha or John Podhoretz’s back. And then she goes all Snooki when no one’s looking.
The Gawker story is not about harassment of a female politician. It’s about hypocrisy. No one dropped a stitch — nor should they have — when tales of Larry Craig’s escapades in his Capitol Hill townhouse were revealed, including sordid details about the mechanics of the encounter which make the reference in Gawker to Christine’s, er, you-know-what seem tame. If you run around preaching sexual morality, your own dalliances are fair game whether you’re male, female, gay, straight, or, like me, Belgian.
I was disappointed in the story–no naked pics.
Hear, hear.
Also, I just don’t get the undying love these people have for Christine O’Donnell. She’s a dope. I mean, I can’t really put it any better than that. If she espoused things I agreed with politically, I’d still think she was a dope. And a grifter. And someone who was about to cost me a very winnable seat.
Tintin,
If you ever, and I mean EVER, mention the name “Kathryn Lopez” in the same post as “picked up a guy and tried to bed him” OR “24-hour meth-fueled orgy with _______ in a French maid’s outfit”…I will…I will….well, there will be a strongly worded letter to the Times! I warn you!
By the way, where was K-Lo when Wonkette republished the story neighbors tell about O’Donnell’s sexcapades with her live-in boyfriend?
Christine wasn’t all fooling around with lust and all of that. She was involved in a science experiment to see if she could evolve into a human.
See? Evolution is false.
You know who I hate more than the Dutch?
Sorry, I don’t buy the hypocrisy angle.
Conservatives don;t care about hypocrisy, tribalism easily trumps it. The Christian right seems to care more about te promotion of christian values than the actual practicing of them. We’re all fallen sinners redeemed through Christ or some shit.
Everyone else is more concerned that her policies are dangerous, her lack of civics knowledge is frightening, her authoritarian tendencies are totally unacceptable. That she got drunk and hit on some douche who runs to the press to whine that she blue-balled him with the boner killing powers of vaginal hair is… well… just sad.
I’ve got better reasons to vote against her, and better shit to laugh at or wank to.
By the way, the Gawker “story” sounds more like a letter to Penthouse…
I just don’t get the undying love these people have for Christine O’Donnell
Simple – she pisses off liberals. That’s their whole raison d’etre these days.
And yes, if you’re going to be a self-righteous asshat like O’Donnell and tell other folks how they must live their lives, then you lose your right to privacy.
Well said, Tintin.
I don’t think hypocrisy means jack shit to people living in fantasyland.
You know who I hate more than the Dutch?
Who?

You’re really pushing the limits of absurdity here.

What the hell do those people know about Christian values? I’ve read their manual, and it’s pretty damn simple: love your neighbor as yourself.
Christian FAIL.

If only Jesus had said “early and often”…
Of course, everyone would agree that a sighting of the Wooly Mammoth would make anyone lose one’s passion. Touching oneself is a problem if the beast is too frightening. “Oh my god, is that an extinct creature or the ghost of my great grandfather’s beard.” Details, details, always those scurrilous details. Rarely do I say, “too much information,” but this was one of those times. I prefer to imagine dear Christine as androgynous or hermaphrodite, but a pathological liar always. The talent that keeps on giving, like a whore in Goose Bay Labrador.
And the really funny thing is that what pissed Jesus off the most were hypocrites and people following the letter of the Law and not the spirit.
They better hope He doesn’t come back – because if so, well, that lake of fire is going to get awfully full…

Obviously, you’ve never lived in a Sicilian neighborhood…
So I read the gawker piece. First of all, the dude didn’t schtup her on the night in question, and, more horrifically, and pathetically, O’Donnell ended up dating his roommate for a year and HE didn’t schtup her either.
I mean, come, who over the age of 20 in this world dates a woman for a year and doesn’t get some bootay?
Just sayin’.
more hair sprout on your palm then you’ll find on an unwaxed hooha or John Podhoretz’s back
This. Is. Just. So. WRONG!

I see what you do there.
You know who I hate more than the Dutch?
You know who ELSE hated someone more than the Dutch?
In all fairness, I think this story makes the anonymous Philadelphian telling it sound worse than O’Donnell. Dude comes across as a complete twat. From Gawker:
When her underwear came off, I immediately noticed that the waxing trend had completely passed her by. Obviously, that was a big turnoff, and I quickly lost interest.
So wait a second – you’re saying she had pubic hair? Like all physically healthy women north of puberty do? Oh my God! That’s disgusting. Seriously, how do you expect a guy to imagine he’s fucking a 6th grader when she’s got all this hair down there?
Oh, and if you think that was uncalled for, the Gawker comments are actually harsher than that. You know it’s a bullshit story when the readers of a gossip blog are calling shenanigans.
“You know who I hate more than the Dutch?
Who?”
The Belgians. What have they given us besides awesome waffles and chocolate? Also have you seen “The Ordeal,” which is 100% accurate?

Honor culture vs virtue culture. Wingnuts (like the Confederates before them) are an honor culture where your public rep is way more important than what you do in private. See also: saying that the U.S. tortured people is far worse than, you know, the U.S. actually torturing people.
“Who?” [Actor]
Miserable fat Belgian bahstads.
So wait a second – you’re saying she had pubic hair?
His telling seems to indicate that they got naked and did everything but. It seems to me that if you’re going that far with someone who’s hoohah turns you off, the little sailor is going to dive into the sea…
Too, he was 20. I don’t know any 20 year old guys with that kind of self-control.
Miserable fat Belgian bahstads.
The Phlegms was funnier.
Belgium has those statues of the little kid peeing. That’s pretty cool in a Beavis & Butthead way.
And the really funny thing is that what pissed Jesus off the most were hypocrites and people following the letter of the Law and not the spirit.
Well, that and rich people, whom he explicitly excluded from his communion and repeatedly condemned to hell.
Well, that and rich people, whom he explicitly excluded from his communion and repeatedly condemned to hell.
But he *loved* the rich! And he *loved* seeing them get richer!
And yes, he condemned them to hell, but then gave them a loophole: if they only shoved a camel thru the eye of a needle….
Also I think you are being to quick to dismiss the value of waffles and chocolate. I mean seriously. think about them. Belgian Waffles with bacon is really the emperor of all breakfasts. That’s not nothing.
And Chocolate. Belgian Chocolate. think about it. Aren’t you hungry already? Is there any bad situation that chocolate can’t make even a little better? (OK, maybe morbid obesity but even that is a pretty specific example)
Totes gonna Ctrl-V what I said over at nomoremisterniceblog.
Man, d00d who said that sure sounds smart and like he’d be fantastic in the sack.
Also, too, am starting to feel SYMPATHY FOR COPYPASTA TROLLS! WHAT’S HAPPENING TO ME?!?!
If Christine O’Donnell wins her election it will be the scientific proof needed to confirm that untreated syphillus leads to a profound loss of mental capacity.
Thank You WordPress. You just ate my post, but OTOH I was kinda ashamed of bits of it.
I don’t know whether to believe the guy or not – he sounds like a loser anyway.
But the real treasure is the slide show of photos of a purported Senatorial candidate dressed up as a ladybug. Priceless.
It was already pretty obvious without knowing hairstyling details.
… love your neighbor as yourself.
d00d, totes consistent. Remember Witch-tine’s position on loving yourself.
Yeah, you know, I do have a problem with it. If it was just like, “Hey, Christine O’Donnell tried to hook up drunkenly with me one Halloween,” I wouldn’t give a shit. It’s the douchey fucking comments about her bush and her being a “cougar” that got to me.
Methinks homeboy had whiskey dick and instead of just admitting it, he made some bullshit story up so he’d feel like less of a pathetic loser.
Is there any bad situation that chocolate can’t make even a little better?
A toothache.

If you’re going to lie that badly, you may as well go whole hog and say you bagged her.
Anyways, since WP ate my other post, here’s some other interesting stuff via Steve M.
They’ve figured out who the guy is. The tipoff was (OMFG social media sucks) him deleting his Facebook page. Well, that was corroboration, there’s a lot of actual evidence too.
Hirsute Hoohah Hoopla!
Oh man, I just had a thought cross my mind that I cannot, in any way shape or form, share….
“It’s like hearing Brent Bozell confess a fondness for Allen Ginsburg’s ‘Howl,'”
For William F. Buckley
I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by Jesus getting gay head, obese hysterical hopefully clothed,
dragging themselves through the NRO halls at dawn looking for an angry fix…
who bared their brains to Ayn Rand in their mothers’ basements and saw Mohammedan terrorists infiltrating Sesame Street,
who passed through universities with petulant tears hallucinating persecution and liberal evil among scholars of everything except perhaps business…
*snapping fingers*
Cool, baby….very cool….
*sipping latte, adjusting beret*
And yes, he condemned them to hell, but then gave them a loophole: if they only shoved a camel thru the eye of a needle….
And he ain’t talking the Space Needle, nor any postern gate (never was one). He is referring to passing a full growed camel through the eye of a sewing needle. I don’t think that even the Kochs and Waltons working together could manage that one.

Clearly, you’ve never suffered a kidney stone.
My vote: Ted Kennedy. Discuss.
Probably it’s because I’m one of his unlucky constituents – Orrin Hatch would be my vote. But I’m pretty sure he’s too clueless to even notice he was wearing a ladybug suit.

All it takes is a really good blender.

Freakin’ exactly.
The concept of honor was bastardized long, long ago by duelling European aristocrats and Southern aristocrat-wannabes to become another word for “face,” as to lose or save face. It’s supposed to be a moral code based on an internal compass that tells you to do what’s right. Today, it’s become an ego-based concept that centers on external appearance and the need to appear rather than be “virtuous.” “Honor culture vs virtue culture” is probably the best summary I’ve read so far.
It also ties into the hypocrisy. If you point out that they’re hypocrites (for example, for whining about welfare when they tend to be older welfare recipients from heavily-subsidized red states), you’re not going to make them realize they’ve behaved dishonorably and thus change their behavior. Instead, you’re going to make them very upset because you challenged their public image; they’ll run to Fox News in tears, and the evening story’ll be about what a mean bully you are for dishonoring them.
I’d love to hate the Belgians but ZOMFG French fries! And beer too also.

Pretty sure he just had a Corner post this week about a “liberal gene” being discovered and how superduper awesome it would be if it could be “cured.” Because liberals are so into eugenics. But for some reason his NRO archive page is missing Corner posts more recent than September, so I can’t confirm it. Which is central to my point. I have to walk the dog now.

Jonah probably thinks the CIA did it but actually it was his mom.
What about Muslim hippies?
I believe that job is outsourced to the Taliban.
It may well be true that wingnuts love O’Donnell because they believe that she pisses off lefties. But she doesn’t, at least not in my case. As far as I’m concerned, she provides much needed amusement in otherwise bleak times.

Joseph McCarthy.
He is referring to passing a full growed camel through the eye of a sewing needle.
The word for rope is very similar to the word for camel in Aramaic. So he was also making a wacky pun, or was mistranslated. You could definitely slip a tiny camel fetus through an eye of a needle and I think Jesus would’ve known that…

I would do anything for love! …but I won’t Douthat
As I’ve said over and over elsewhere, there is no evidence at all that she did anything at all, right or wrong. We have a creepy person who tells an utterly implausible story. I do not believe that real late-30s attractive female virgins show up at the doorstep of sleazy “men” fifteen years their junior who look vaguely like Jonah Goldberg that they met briefly months ago begging to lose their virginity. This simply does not happen outside of pornographic fantasies. Why anyone is giving credence to a letter that begins, “Dear Gawker Forum, you will never believe this, but…” boggles my mind. This is a masturbate-to-christine-o’donnell story that has gotten out of hand.
You could wear a ginger combover!
It would clash with the gingham dress and white cotton bonnet!

You know what I find interesting about Christine O’Donnell? It’s that even she’s flaky and weird, she doesn’t come across the way so many other batshit conservatives come across: as sneering and nasty. She actually seems somewhat pleasant most of the time, which totally doesn’t jibe with the whole conservative asshat thing. Sometimes I can’t help but feel sorry her.
…cast a spell on him.
Screamin Jay!!!!
Damn. That one never even occured to me…
As an atheist my opinion is worth just about nothing on the matter, but the camel/eye of needle passage specifically says Jesus loved the rich man even as he rejected Jesus’s message, and that with God even the impossible of rich folks entering heaven becomes possible. It’s a lot better picture of God than most Christians seem interested in painting, and one who’d be a lot more worthy of worship than the one they’re actually worship.
This is a masturbate-to-christine-o’donnell story that has gotten out of hand.
And yet, very plausible. He lived with TWO of O’Donnell’s ex-boyfriends.
“What have they given us besides awesome waffles and chocolate? ”
Only the best beer on earth (high-alcohol-content Abbey ales; monks know how to drink; the secular brews, usually with satanic names, are not half bad either). And the European comics tradition (bandes desinees), including the poster’s namesake.
Fun fact: The Belgians are to the French what the French are to ignorant Americans.

I rationally hate on Belgians. Every person I spoke to in Belgium was rude. Literally every single person I spoke to, even if it was to ask the guy who worked at the bus depot Information desk where my bus would stop. It was like every stereotype of Paris in every bad comedy, only it was Brussels and it was really happening.
Tintin is slowly convicing me that not all his countrymen are mean, but it is a long road back.
Don’t forget that on the Internet you can be whoever you want to be, so I might in fact be a Latvian transvestite in a ladybug dress instead of a Belgian boy with a dog.
I once saw a Belgian in a tutu eat a lightbulb and I’ve been okay with Belgians ever since.
LC, is that true? Holy shit. I never could get the scoop on France…my dad’s been there several times and speaks French fluently…so I don’t think he’s treated like the average American…
I suspect Tintin really is a Belgian boy with a dog. However, on the internet he can pretend to be a nice, friendly Belgian boy which is really just a ruse to lure unsespecting travellers to Belgium so Tintin and his fellow countrymen will have someone to be rude to.
Re Belgium: I had one of the best lunches of my life in Belgium, and it was in the executive dining room of the company I was visiting. I’ve never had a bad meal in Belgium. So there’s that.
so I might in fact be a Latvian transvestite in a ladybug dress instead of a Belgian boy with a dog.

In Germany you could get curry sauce for your fries, even at McDonalds. THAT is how you do fries.
OT reminiscence: back in the ’90s someone in Pasadena, CA thought it’d be fun to open up a shop specializing in fries and sauces to dip them in (though you could get sandwiches and hot dogs if you wanted something more like a meal).
Garlic mayo on fries is quite nice (though not a bit good for you. A real aioli might be marginally better).
DON’T JUDGE ME!
What’s a girl gotta do to lose an election these days?
Geez!

True story. I don’t actually hate Belgians, but yeah, I had a really bad experience there. Contrary to stereotype, everybody I met in Paris was friendly, and mainly intrigued by my Quebecois-flavoured French. Brussels…Brussels I was happy to leave.
THAT is how you do fries.
Sadly for you but not for me, no!

An old editor of mine at Brill’s Content (at least I think that’s how I know him) writes a spectacularly dumb item about my column today. I think he’s upset about the things I don’t say but which he thinks I should so it would be easier for him to write something halfway intelligible.
Jonah Goldberg complaining of spectacularly dumb less than halfway intelligible writing*. Mind. Blown.
*I seriously can’t get over complaining about someone else’s writing being unintelligible in the very same sentence you accuse them of not comprehending your own column.

Yup, which made all the product placements in the latest movie really awkward.
I think they now read that as “Shove a needle through the eye of a camel driver.”
I see Thurmond and McCarthy have already been mentioned. Cornyn, Bunning and Brownback all have potential, and Kerry would look pretty funny. How about the whole Supreme Court?
Note that nothing is branded in Star Trek,
Not So. When I went to buy my nephew a toy phaser for Christmas, I fond an entire aisle of things branded in Star Trek!

“As an atheist my opinion is worth just about nothing on the matter, but the camel/eye of needle passage specifically says Jesus loved the rich man even as he rejected Jesus’s message, and that with God even the impossible of rich folks entering heaven becomes possible. It’s a lot better picture of God than most Christians seem interested in painting, and one who’d be a lot more worthy of worship than the one they’re actually worship.”

By the way, where was K-Lo when Wonkette republished the story neighbors tell about O’Donnell’s sexcapades with her live-in boyfriend?
Break out the brain bleach…
She was in the restroom, radio blaring to cover the low hum and loud screams.
Gotta concur with Left Wing Fox way up yonder: Christine “Vote For Me Or My Minion Will Loom Over You” O’Donnell’s possible case of chronic Yeti Cooter Syndrome (or even her propensity to get shitfaced & go Full Cougar on douchey twentysomethings) is a heck of a lot less interesting to me than is the vast range of issues on which she would (if her bush was on her chin & her plumbing was more patriarch-oriented) be able to fit in just fine with the Taliban.
But sweet mother of pearl – K-Lo agreeing with NOW ?!?

There is a rumor fueled Internet fracas going on — there always is — over a short clip this time of some old black and white film dating back to 1928 . An Irish filmmaker who saw this clip on a DVD extra from Charlie Chaplin ‘s film ” The Circus ” thinks it’s a cell phone. He focused on the woman walking in the background. Then came the theory she was somehow a time traveler, in the film talking on a cell phone.
Cell coverage in 1928 was probably pretty spotty, so probably a satphone.
I don’t know why you’d be cross about it.
Is there something you’d like to share with us?

I was going to ask when you posted the flickr set. Is that your Darmah? Had one like that briefly.
The movement’s roots lie in late 2008, amid discontent over the financial meltdown, the government bailouts and the election of Barack Obama.
Y’know, Baggers, one of these things is NOT like the others…
On Feb. 19, Rick Santelli, a 54-year-old CNBC commentator covering financial markets, was broadcasting live from the Chicago Board of Trade. He had doubts about the government’s response to the economic meltdown. The day before, the Obama administration had unveiled a $75 billion program to help homeowners who couldn’t pay their mortgages.
Mr. Santelli grew agitated on air. “This is America!” he yelled. “How many of you people want to pay for your neighbor’s mortgage that has an extra bathroom and can’t pay their bills?”
$750 billion to bail out banks that hardly needed it? Santelli’s fine with that.
One-tenth to help people keep their homes? Oh no! SOCIALISM!
you are totally raining on my parade. I fantasize about someone else paying for me to learn how to fly.
Not all that hard. Just throw yourself at the ground and miss. Takes a little while to do it properly, though, and I wouldn’t wear my best pants during the learning process.
Oh, and just after that snippet about Santelli…In Georgia, Ms. Martin heard a snippet of the rant while driving between two houses she was cleaning. “We had just lost our house,” she recalls, in bankruptcy proceedings.
Does she get mad that the banks got bailed out? Even tho her business was failing?
Nope.
It was maddening, she says, to imagine the government encouraging others not to take responsibility for buying houses they couldn’t afford.

When it comes to fast vehicles, I am not sure the word ‘enough’ ever applies. Sadly the Darmah is not mine. Mine is the red Sport 1000S. I would like to own a bevel head someday, but they are pretty pricey at the moment, and I don’t ever forsee the price for them coming down.

This kills me. I’ve been watching a lot of documentaries lately, and last night watching Food Inc and Supersize Me I noticed the stark contrast between the (manufactured) outrage at the obese girls suing McDonald’s and the lack of same at Monsanto suing people for saving non-Monsanto seeds or beef producers suing Oprah for saying Mad Cow Disease personally put her off beef. For the life of me I don’t know why people not only fight to have their own rights and best interests curtailed for the sake of corporations, but do so with near religious fervor.

Anybody here heard about that female, Republican, Ohio Representative that said that gay marriage is like marrying a table or a clock? Sex really confuses these people. No one even suggests dating tables and clocks, ya know—for good reasons that anyone who was ever been sexually excited and gratified by another person should get intuitively. It’s the opposite of anthropomorphizing. Making human beings analogous to furniture is too weird—they really should apologize for being too weird and bow out of political races on account of that.
Instead of the usual ‘sorry if I offended’ you apology, wouldn’t it be dreamy if they started saying, “I’m sorry. I just realized that I’m entirely too weird to govern responsibly, if not too weird to manage a taco stand, so I’m outta here.”?

WAAAAY late to this thread but…
Of course, everyone would agree that a sighting of the Wooly Mammoth would make anyone lose one’s passion.
Right, which is why the human race died out long before the concept of the Brazilian became popular.
…this alludes to something I’ve been wondering ever since the latest media & beauty industry commandment to women about what they must do to make themselves appealing to men took off 10 or so years ago – are there really men out there who would be so turned off by a woman with pubic hair that they’d turn down the opportunity to have sex? Is this something men REALLY care about?
I’m just asking; I have no idea whether they do or not. I’ve always kind of looked on this trend as being just one more “obligation” pushed on to women to make them “acceptable” – and fully recognize that it’s a trend which came out of ubiquitous pornography, which in itself is really an icky idea – the thought that now ALL American women are being pushed to believe that they have to emulate the often extremely fucked-up and debased women who star in pornos as the new “normal”. Plus, I’m just pretty horrified by the idea that there are women who have strangers spreading hot wax around that area for them, which in my mind is the worst aspect of the whole thing. So mens, what say you? Is a full bush the biggest turn-off ever? Or is it pretty much like boobs – you may prefer them large, but you generally appreciate all of them, no matter what size they are?
On a completely different topic, would there be a reason why every transformer in my neighborhood seems to be blowing up this past week? As I was typing the above, I heard one explode across the street; yesterday morning, I heard two of them blow up a few blocks away.
When her underwear came off, I immediately noticed that the waxing trend had completely passed her by.
Pube n00b.
Doesn’t this guy know the origin of such slang terms as “beaver” and “pussy”? The vulva’s not supposed to be as bald as my g-d pate.
Why does the funny shit come to me hours after the thread has died.
Plus I kind of think that ubiquitous waxing has been more or less replaced by landing strips, crew-cuts, and other, less pedobear-approved styles.
are there really men out there who would be so turned off by a woman with pubic hair that they’d turn down the opportunity to have sex?
No.

Men will have sex with a rotting casaba melon if there’s no alternative, and if you’ve got her clothes off, there’s no alternative.
She’d have to puke on the guy for him to turn down sex.
She’d have to puke on the guy for him to turn down sex.

And that’s not necessarily a deal breaker for all guys.
