First HTML Mencken and now Gavin!

Whee!

This canna’ be!!

It’s a good thing too. I was getting pretty tired waiting for the next HTML post.

GASP! Sweet Mother Of Pearl!

Welcome back to the freakshow that never ends.

To quote George Takai: Oh My!

See, one prepares a “Fixing the Interlattice” post as a Gavin M. tribute, and this is what happens. Cargo cults work.

So it really is the apocalypse then.

I thought you folx were making these people up, altogether. A clever ruse, what with the leaving of blogroll links up, and whatnot.

Not since the Great French Toast Blockade, kid, has the Lunch Lady trembled so in her Easy Spirits.

VIPERS are a GO!!

Welcome Back, G.M.!

Yow!!!! Excellent.

The fact is peek wingnut has commensed with the zombie apockalips.

Welcome back, you lazy shit.

Gavin!

Cargo cults work.

As soon as I am done at work I will start carving a 5000′ runway in the jungles of Wisconsin. The sweet sweet cargo will be mine.

Let me be the first one to say: Tonguejack my shitbox!

We were happy then.

We were happy then.

Now that’s funny, that is.

Hi, I’m back!

But really, you never went away.

Does this mean Leonard Pierce will be posting again?

Oppan Gavin Style

Wowzers! It’s all old-timey up in here.

Oh dear, Richard the third.

While you were gone, Gavin, the country was usurped by a Kenyan Muslim narcissist in Mom-jeans. And the poors caused a global financial meltdown.

He’s back, and he’s brought Glen Matlock and Midge Ure with him. Oh, frabjous day!

See, one prepares a “Fixing the Interlattice” post as a Gavin M. tribute, and this is what happens. Cargo cults work.

Forget friendship. Smut is magic!

Wait, were you exhumed along w/ Richie III?

In any case, welcome back.

Yay, Gavin’s back too!

I guess it’s only a matter of time until Troofy comes back, then.

The fact is peek wingnut has commensed with the zombie apockalips.

Hey now.

Milwaukee Law Firm and Sausage Factory will be in touch about this obvious copyright violation. 200 billion dollars seems like a fair compensation.

I guess it’s only a matter of time until Troofy comes back, then.

Don’t invoke its name, you’ll attract it!

OK, I think we’re safe for now…

Can you do Fafblog next? I miss the Medium Lobster.

Hello, everyone!

Finally we can kill that damn fatted calf.

Wow, Gavin and the Lunch Lady! Our cafeteria tray sloppeth over!

Also, fixing the interlattice.

Welcome back! Old home week is right!

“Bozell is a hater, and he also, like, has a long, sordid history, like, hating Karl Rove, too. So he has, like, a weird personal axe to grind,” Collegio said.

I hate conservative male valley girls.

How come there is never an impending plate-of-shrimp crisis?

Because the supplies are continually re-stocked by flying saucers, which are really, you got it, time machines.

NEOCON WAR

Funny, if a “number of liberal activists” had called for the firing of a conservative over his or her words, it would be branded “censorship disguised as journalism” — but as usual, IOKIYAR.

Also, too: Pass the popcorn!

“Karl Rove is a total loser. Money given to him might as well be thrown down the drain.”

yow…the jaws are verily snapping for karl rove…i bet he really wishes he wasn’t made out of ham…

now i don’t know if i’m hungry or horny…

There is a way to satisfy both needs…

I love that the same fucknuggets who were fighting over who got to blow Dubya are now pretending they never liked him.

It wasn’t the first time Trump aimed his derision at Rove. In late 2011, Trump criticized Rove and former President George W. Bush for providing fertile ground for President Barack Obama’s election after the GOP strategist had voiced concern about a Republican presidential debate that the “Apprentice” star was originally scheduled to moderate.

omg…how much flipping fun would that have been to watch?

I guess it’s only a matter of time until Troofy comes back, then.

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

i?, w?, n?

i?, w?, n?

The truth is, keep fucking that chicken.

Eagerly anticipating a news update from RANTOUL ILLINOS while we’re at it…

Look. I get the Tudor campaign to defame the character of Richard III. I even understand why Shakespeare bought into the propaganda about Richard III and elevated it into art. But why/how did Thomas More buy into and even expand upon the anti-Richard III propaganda? Shouldn’t have have known better, and certainly wasn’t he brave enough to not buy into the “Richard III was a deformed meany” conventional wisdom enforced by the Tudors?

After all, wasn’t a key beef with Richard III that he dare to notice that there were people in England other than nobles and gentlemen? Wasn’t he the original “liberal fascist”?

Or maybe I shouldn’t make that allusion lest Jonah Cheesitberg get wind (see what I did there?) of that comparison and start claiming himself to be of the same caliber as Shakespeare?

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

“Bozell is a hater, and he also, like, has a long, sordid history, like, hating Karl Rove, too. So he has, like, a weird personal axe to grind,”

He should be fired for sucking as a spokesman.

WEENIE ROAST!

Oops

Welcome back, Gavin!

We got Copypasta Troll back in the last thread. Let’s not get greedy.

dammit…now i don’t know if i’m hungry or horny… – bbkf

When I was a teenager, I think I was both. All the time. Now I am getting into middle age (not quite there yet), so I am no longer quite so hungry and quite so horny, but I am more tired.

So what do you do if you are a little hungry, a little horny and more than a little tired?

Precooked sausages.

The internets, let you fix them for me.

Gun cake, golden onion wieners, libertarian nanobots, let us snort them together. I say three billion cheers.

Headline that’s OT but too good not to share:

first off: emboldening the obama

We have not confirmed this article as we have not found the original source and do not have a Russian translator. We are asking for anyone that can help us research this article for us.

It would be very bad for someone who is fluent in Russian to mess with these poor bewildered people.

I also have trouble understanding why Obama needs to send out the Death Squads when he can just use Drones TO RAIN DEATH FROM ABOVE. Perhaps if I were more insane than mildly neurotic.

Having Gavin and HTML back is all well and good but I’ll not be satisfied until Lonny Martello brings back the FUCHING FERRETS.

Holy snark! It’s a sadlyno! revival!

A fainting couch tout de suite, minion!
HTML in full spate, Gavin and now that old Pinko.
Methinks I am too advanced in age for such excitement.
Talking that way, Shakespeare was of a whole different calibre (note spelling) from any of these propellorheads.

Fanning Out Across America
I assume that “fanning out” refers to loss of consciousness from trying to clutch pearls and fan oneself simultaneously.

It would be very bad for someone who is fluent in Russian to mess with these poor bewildered people.

I take a few weeks off because of getting thrown out of our apartment, madly scrambling to find another, killing myself moving crap…and look what happens! HTML Mencken returning for a posting spree, and now Gavin’s back. I’ll never catch up.

While I would generally consider myself a liberal, I have flirted with Samuel Johnson-style Toryism and even with Jacobitism (although I am no Cavalier). I haven’t considered myself a Yorkist, but I guess now that you mention it, I may be. I guess it all boils down whether or not one thinks this dude should be the king of England? Perhaps he should be, but the picture has a wee bit too much of a Paul Ryan vibe to me. But I guess I should still consider whether or not I should align myself with the Yorkist cause … I certainly am intrigued and wish to subscribe to a newsletter.

From the reserve-popcorn-levels-dropping-to-critical link:

The letter added that Bozell is a “legacy” in the conservative movement. “He has devoted his life to the cause of American conservatism as did his father, Brent Bozell II, who wrote ‘Conscience of a Conservative’ for Barry Goldwater. Maybe you’ve heard of Brent’s uncle, Bill Buckley, whose words you misquote and twist as the basis for your organization enough to falsely suggest you know something about him. You may have heard of his other uncle, Jim Buckley, a former U.S. Senator, or Brent’s mother, Patricia Buckley Bozell—both important figures and writers in our conservative movement.”

Weirdbeard is thus the finest living example of conservative meritocracy since Bill Kristol met Loadpants.

But Bozell III made it completely on his own.

He killed a cow with his bare hands to make the bootstraps he pulled himself up by.

Speaking of twisted, this sentence was built with the help of Eschergram 2.0.

So, Ewik bin Ewik von Dumbassdottir is taking on Karl Rove. The greatest humor value will derive from:

1a) — How swiftly Rove squishes Ewik;
1b) — The lack of effort Rove puts into squishing Ewik;
1c) — The finality with which Ewik remains squished;

2a, 2b, 2c) — Ewik’s total surprise at 1a, 1b, 1c;
3a, 3b, 3c) — Ewik’s enraged, flailing, impotent failure in countering 1a, 1b, 1c

Discussion is not required; pointing and laughing, however, is unavoidable.

I am seriously beginning to wonder about her sanity.

Having dealt with people of varying levels of connection to reality, not to mention other levels of disability, I am not so harsh. I know, shocking, right?

But having started to be able to decipher her phrasing and tempo, I am not so willing to discard. I am starting to kind of like it, in a dadaist poetic kind of way. And she has dropped a couple of hints to birth disabilities, and such, that make me willing to give her more slack.

But then, I once cob-logged with AG, so who am I to judge? Perhaps I am just eager for commenters.

Maybe you’ve heard the story so far: Fired LAPD cop goes apeshit. Shoots other cops and a women’s basketball coach. On-duty officers in the greater LA area shoot four innocents driving the same model pickup. The entire city is in paranoid mode after press publishes his 20-page manifesto-slash-suicide note, which includes a paragraph or two complimenting Mr. and Mrs. Obama, Hillary Clinton, and endorsing stricter gun control laws… and pages and pages and pages describing his grievances against his superiors in the LAPD, along with plenty of evidence that he’s manic-depressive.

What is the right wing reaction? Dorner is a moonbat psychopath driven to murder by leftist propaganda in the mainstream media.

Oh, and also, the liberal media are covering it up by not publishing the entire manifesto.

All of a sudden, because we have one shooter who is a) black and b) briefly expresses non-wingnut political views, we are to believe that the correlation between eliminationist ultraconservatism and spree-shootings is entirely negated.

Forget entirely that this case is fundamentally different in that the murderer is not randomly selecting targets but going after people who he feels have aggrieved him. Forget that the weapons he’s using would not be covered under any proposed gun control laws. Forget that he’s not interested in simply racking up a body count, nor trying to make a name for himself by shocking the country.

This is going to be one hell of a weekend here in LA.

But having started to be able to decipher her phrasing and tempo, I am not so willing to discard. I am starting to kind of like it, in a dadaist poetic kind of way. And she has dropped a couple of hints to birth disabilities, and such, that make me willing to give her more slack.

True.

You have to admit it’s a bit weird that she actually enjoyed that photo of SubMcG’s though. And that’s without being able to hear the delightful musical accompaniment that really pulls the whole thing together, y’know?

I really don’t see what’s the big deal. I’m partial to thighs as well. They don’t dry out as much as the breasts.

Gavin! Gavin! Gavin’s here! Gavin’s here! Yay!

(I would think all of us here would be Yorkists, as any right-thinking person would be, as long as you generally ignore any Yorkist monarch who wasn’t Richard III. As to your question about what the hell Sir Thomas was up to with his History, the only thing I can say is that the Richard III board on which I have spent the majority of the past week and a half takes it up regularly as a perplexing and possibly insoluble conundrum. He may have been inveighing against tyranny and couldn’t use Henry VII as his real example; he may have been a hatchet for hire who did enough research to realize the demonization was pure crap; he may have been writing the world’s least amusing satire. My own personal idea is that Henry VIII asked Sir Thomas about it once and he just kept drafting and drafting and drafting, hoping to turn it into useful propaganda, until he finally said the hell with it and wrote Utopia instead.)

Yes, I still surf here from time to time. While I enjoy Cerberus – the old crew brings the lulz. Hope they stick around for a while longer.

Pot roast. Provencal. Simple and absolutely fucking delicious. But that was the other day. The leftovers made for a lunch that CAN’T BE BEAT.

Snagged some gorgeous t-bones. Prime. For cheap! Spinach cheese souffle – it’s actuallly much easier than one would think. I cut the loin and tenderloin portions out, gave the bones to THE CUTEST DOG ON THE PLANET, tossed in a HOT HOT HOT cast iron pan, will finish with maybe some compound butter or maybe poivre the fuck out of them. I dunno, we’ll see.

Tomorrow Imma confiting the shit out of some duck – 2$ a pound at the restaurant supply house. Legs get confit’ed, breasts get saved for sauteeing and served on bitter greens with a cherry balsamic reduction or some shit, duck stock is in our future, and duck fat is A KITCHEN FUCKING TREASURE.

So if Bush is worse than Hitler and Obama is worse than Bush, does that make Obama a Mega-Hitler? – Shakezula

I think the theory of Godwinization of political discourse is isomorphic to the Cantor’s theory of transfinite numbers: i.e. there is an isomorphism between aleph_0, aleph_1, etc and Hitler_0, Hitler_1, etc.

Actually, there are multiple isomorphisms possible. Indeed, you can endow the set of isomorphisms between the transfinite cardinals and the Hitlerian cardinals (and similarly for transfinite ordinals and Hitlerian ordinals) with a mathematical structure such that this set of isomorphisms is itself isomorphic to the political spectrum.

Yes, I did major in math way back when. And yes I did take logic as well as computability (I skipped set theory though … and I have not taken an actual course in category theory). Why do you ask?

Editing, how does it work?

some tidbits from the latest ‘hooterville indigestion’:

-a diatribe targeting our ‘LAX-LUSTER CONGRESS’ who ‘DID NOT GIVE CONSENT’ to obama and his ‘constant dictatorial ways’ when he gave six fighter jets to egypt. this particular rant, which began with him noting that our politicians are ‘sick’ ends thusly:

‘…how much of Obama dictatorship will it take to wake up America?? Remember Nazi Germany, how it started with Hitler gradually taking full charge, having hypnotized the German Army?? Darn right, our own government is becoming SICK. Just think about it!!!.’

-a ‘guest editorial’ by one Clash Daly who passes along all the usual ‘these countries passed gun control and look what happened to all these poor unarmed people’ crap featuring, of course, the jews and political dissidents, etc. and where i found this surprising factoid:

‘During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED!’

also, too…’SWITZERLAND ISSUES EVERY HOUSEHOLD A GUN! SWIZTERLAND’S GOVERNMENT TRAINS EVERY ADULT THEY ISSUE A RIFLE. SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD! IT’S A NO BRAINER!’

it ends with: ‘You’re not imagining it, history shows that governments always manipulate tragedies to attempt to disarm the people.’

-‘Letter to the Editor:

-obama is a muslim because yahoo news item that says that the tea party says the debate continues over the claim that obama’s wedding ring is inscribed with the muslim declaration of faith because some staffers of a religious wingnut in jordan saw a picture of obama wearing the ring BEFORE he married michelle and a guy in amman said, yes that is the shahada…

Seconded.

The letter added that Bozell is a “legacy” in the conservative movement.

Yes, like those jerkhole W-level-IQ “legacy” students at the Ivies, and just as ineluctable.

I didn’t go to an Ivy, but I used to go to Harvard-sponsored events a lot and ride the 66 bus, so I know of whom I speak. (Not implying that Winklevii would be riding the 66 bus. That was more for those one level down on the social chain, those fratty jocks who dressed like gay guys… double take… triple take… okay, just another HU Athletics asshole.)

One might ask if the gay guys were dressing like Harvard jocks, but these are Boston gays we’re talking about, so I’m pretty sure that’s unpossible, but some of the younger more impressionable ones might have taken strong hints from the A&F catalog back in the day. There also used to be an A&F store in Hahvahd Squeyah, so syncronicity! or something, it was a sort of thing: I can’t recall the technical term for a store that LOSES MONEY ON PURPOSE FOR GREAT JUSTICE brand prestige, but it closed in the Great Recession or maybe even before, lolololol. Just their karma for pissing on the grave of the old, funky Harvard Sq. (Tufts students rejoice.)

Hmm, try catfishing the blog with an elaborate Munchhausen’s by internet sob story, then flounce in a trollsy meltdown of epic proportions when too many critical questions are asked. I think that will make you immortal and unforgettable (like Kahless!) in bloggish terms.

Was this advice useful? Yes/no

The quest for genetic purity was actually all about breeding the perfect hypnotoad.

How can we tell the perfect hypnotoad has not been created?

In my neck of Queens, it’s still sleet. The gas lines are already starting up, though. I think going forward we’ll need to just start gas rationing before every storm.

But we’re all home, safe and warm at Schloss DAS. Too warm, in fact: as with many apartment buildings, the concept of a thermostat is beyond the ken of our management. So it’s either keep our radiator off or keep it on until it gets so hot we have to turn it off until it gets too cold.

it occurs to me that letter-writer may be asking for help in justifying soft core porn as national family entertainment…if i were a bit deviouser and was not worried about job security, i would offer her some ways in which she could justify such a display…although, with the crack editorial staff at the hooterville indigestion, i bet a clever funny made up name and location would pass their muster…these are, after all, the people who gave us the front page headline about the re-opening of the pubic library, the filet mignon smothered in crap dinner special and the hooterville swimming poop story…

Let me guess, this guy considers himself a libertarian and a capitalist, and has bitched about the liberal nanny state and/or some perceived infringement of his civil liberties at least once in the past month.

Gods, eight years along and I still love this blog. Youz da bes’!

Tomorrow Imma confiting the shit out of some duck – 2$ a pound at the restaurant supply house. Legs get confit’ed, breasts get saved for sauteeing and served on bitter greens with a cherry balsamic reduction or some shit

I was recently introduced to duck confit for the first time, and I must say it was pretty damn amazing. But I really think you should serve it over the greens — serving it over some shit won’t really do the duck justice.

Also, too: I left a more detailed accounting of the local idiot glibertarian I mentioned a couple threads back at my place. [/whore]

oho! fooled you on that one…letter writer is actually a lady…a crazy shiite catholic, rabidly forced birther lady…she is so hardcore whackaloon that 3/4s of her kids will not talk to her…she also had a burial ceremony (with a priest and everything) for her breasts when she had a double mastectomy a few years back…that she had breast cancer is the only thing about her that causes me to look at her as a human being…otherwise she is extremely odious…

Spearhafoc is evidently not aware of all internet traditions. Note that in the original there was a troll (“The Fool”) that had made some particularly ridiculous suggestions regarding how to satisfy a woman. His posts got deleted (and for a long time you couldn’t actually type “fool” in a comments box here), but if you search that page for “backstroke” you’ll see enough quoted comments to figure out what was going on.

he apparently wasn’t very fond of punk bitchez either. greatful dead all the way.

That was what made me so sad. Us punk bitchez have such a hard time already…

oh. Forgot all those Fool comments were deleted. Sorry.

oops

I miss that PeeJ guy.

I wish I could’ve made it to The Portlanding back in aught-eight so I could’ve met him before he disappeared. Wherever could he have gone?

When you’re older, you’ll understand, kid, why you want a little mystery in a good sloppy joe.

Holy shit! Check out George W. Bush’s paintings.

The paintings demonstrate a command of line and color that is rarely seen in the modern-day “art” world. Former President George W. Bush appears to be influenced by such painters as Edgar Degas and Édouard Manet. The portraits also clearly capture the personality of their subject.

As an artist myself, I’m feeling a real Salieri-in-Amadeus moment here.

What’s really awesome is that he painted those with his penis.

Looks like Condi Rice and Dick Cheney have one more thing in common…

Just want to chime in to the chorus of appreciation to Cerb and Tintin.
Thanks, y’all.

Was out running errands and decided to go to the Freddy’s on Hawthorne today. Four-pack of Rasputin Imperial Stout is now in my fridge. I have several other food-things going on just now so the braising isn’t going to happen right away. Prolly sometime next week I’ll snag some beef short ribs and make some variant of carbonade alla flamande.

Excellent, I look forward to hearing of the results (and exactly what you did — I braise roasts but nothing else and not very often and could definitely use some tips).

Holy shit, read the third line of Hinderaker’s class Bush post:

. . .a great painter . . . who is ahead of his time, and who unveils one masterpiece after another . . .

I trust the Bush paintings are being closely analysed by the SadlyLabs spectrochoromiscoper at this very moment.

I’m sure Pup would be happy to give you a tip. Heh.

Oh great. I stop reading S,N! for a year, and by sheer happenstance stop by here TODAY, and see that not only Mencken, but Gavin, too, is back. And like an episode of This Is Your Life (which none of you are old enough to remember), come the voices of the past: Gary Rupperts fake and real (assuming the distinction means anything), Shoelimpy, and an invocation of the Fuching Ferrets. What? No Pastor Swank?

So now I have to keep coming back, and have yet another way to not get any work done. Well, fine. Welcome back, me!

The birth of Power Pop! Screw the drones; we rock!

Looked at that “Karl Rove aide an enemy of Truth/Bozell” article, and glanced over the list of signatories. Due to someone’s inability to master either Word, email, or web writing, it appeared to contain this little gem:

And yes, as a Tea Partier he’s probably right to be proud to be human.
