The people who make information for Republicans have no sense whatever.
Today I (D-Brooklyn) recieved my first e-mail from GOP chairman Michael Steele who, as we and many, many others have noted, sucks bad at his job. What am I doing on Republican mailing lists, you ask? Short answer: I have no fucking clue. But for those of you signed up for the DNC list, just [...]

Pullin’ Punches
Boy, sure is a good thing we covered the duff heard ’round the shore. The “edgy” and “extreme” “music” “television network” has decided that reality got a little too real for TV, and has cut the infamous Snooki face-punch scene from this week’s episode of Jersey Shore. Here are some reasons why this is dumb:

Oh sorry, I forgot this is a blog, and so we’re mandated to write something about Jersey Shore
We watched the fuck out of Jersey Shore last night, brah. Some stuff happened. Some real important stuff that I’d have a better handle on if it weren’t for all the beer and drug. Someone was in a hot tub, some babes made out in there, I think, maybe with The Situation? I don’t know, [...]

“Get a Grip on Physics” was originally published in Britain in 1999 by Ivy Press as “Get [...]
This post expresses a form of sympathy for Sarah Palin, so we got a Drudge Siren to draw attention to it.
When you’re famous, you have to do things like, I don’t know, wash thoroughly under the arms, wear things that match, and, when things get really crunched, maintain a schedule.

The youngs, the west, and their fucking bicycles.
If it were true, as I momentarily considered, that youth culture comes, like the weather, from the west, then an article like this might have a home in New York Times.
It doesn’t.
But if not for that premise, why publish it at all? Is it, indeed, a new phenomenon that bicycles are the mode of transportation [...]

Florida looks like a phallus. There’s no getting around it, and sometimes it can be a liability, as we reported last week.
