I got nothin’
…nothin’: Michelle Duggar and her husband Jim Bob are expecting their 20th child, the couple revealed exclusively to TODAY. “We are so excited,” Michelle Duggar told TODAY Moms before the broadcast. Now three and a half months pregn…

…the day fed-up, fucked-over bank customers tell their banks to fuck off. This is the day bank customers have been encouraged to “Move [Their] Money” out of Too Big To Fail Pig Palaces like Bank of America and into credit unions, out …

No societal phenomenon worth its salt escapes the rapier wit and jabbing mockery of Parker and Stone! Fast and furious on the moneygrubbing heels of this little explosion of Occupy Wall Street Capitalism comes the penultimate harbinger of a movement ma…
Continue readingOccupy Junk Mail, Part II
Here’s a few helpful hints to go with the “Occupy Junk Mail” concept detailed in the video at my last post. The more I think about it, the more I like it. Keep ‘em occupied, keep ‘em busy processing that junk mail!

I’m always happy to return my junk mail from whence it came, or at least back into the “outgoing” slot, in my ongoing feud with the Post Office. It would probably be more effective to return it to the original senders if only I had time for such an undertaking, but — wait, I feel […]
Mayor McPanic?? Hahahaha!
The fallout from Mayor Effingford’s little fracas with Marg Delahunty/Mary Walsh just keeps getting better. Olbermann tweets: HAHAHAHA! One of the Worst Persons in the World 2 days in a row?? Hizzoner better get his shit together: he’s rapidly spiraling into “Lonesome Rhodes Beck” and “Billo The Clown” territory. (Of course, to Mayor Effingford that […]
Some Assembly Required
SHRIEEEEEEEEEK!!!: That was a shriek of ecstasy and joy, by the way. Omigod… Ford is going to make the classic much loved 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible available again to the buying public. There is one little hitch… you provide the engine, transmission, interior, electronics, brakes, suspension, and trim. Ford just gives you the body. That […]

Rob Ford: Today’s Worst Person In The World!
HAHAHAHAHA! Mayor Rob Fucking Ford made Olbermann’s Worst Person In The World last night.
Why am I laughing? Toronto is my home fucking town, I should probably be fucking mortified.

No, make that the Month. Maybe even the Year. Or possibly the decade, since the photos you’re about to feast your eyes on are from last year. Here’s a taste: this is a couple of law firm employees at their firm’s Hallowe’en party last year. They’re “dressed up” as homeowners who’ve been foreclosed on, something […]
From the “Had to Happen” files
Recognize this guy? Sure you do: it’s the Headless Zazzle T-Shirt Guy, this time sporting an elegant “Occupy Wall Street”-inspired T-shirt, yours for the low low price of $14.95 (plus sales tax, shipping & handling). Also available in long-sleeve, hoodies, tank tops and tote bags. (But no dog shirts — yet.) I took care of […]
Wow, they’re really doing it
Holy Remington… they’re doing it. The CPC’s promise to “scrap the wasteful and ineffective long gun registry” — in exactly those words, the better to optimize the propaganda value — has been central to their platform for about as long as the registry has existed. But I honestly didn’t think they’d ever do it, majority […]
The next time
… some screechy, screaming conservative Catholic like Our Lady of the Fetuses or Father Tubesock tries to make the case that conservatives like them are all about “liberty” and “the free market”, point them towards this little item: The Vatican called on Monday for the establishment of a “global public authority” and a “central world […]
Drums
Sadly, there’s an issue that is tearing Occupy Wall Street asunder and may end its presence in Zuccotti Park tomorrow, and it’s this: Drums. According to a feverish call for help that went out today at N+1mag.com, rogue drummers are causing trouble at OWS: A trusted friend and respected activist sent the following notes, explaining […]
OWS Akbar!
In the relentless race to discredit Occupy Wall Street, wingnuts have finally drawn their ultimate weapon. That’s right… ISLAMACISISISTS!!! About 60 members from the Council on American-Islamic Relations – New York held a prayer service amid the anti-banking demonstration, with the prayer leader calling out, “Allahu Akbar” (“Allah is the most powerful of all”) and […]
The Game is Rigged
No, not that game. I mean an actual Game, in this case, CNBC’s trading contest, “Million Dollar Portfolio Challenge”. The Challenge has run up against some challenges, and trading has been suspended for a week following the discovery of a technical glitch that some wily contestants were exploiting to their benefit. Surprise surprise: someone’s cheating. […]
Colonel Panic
One more badass middle-eastern dictator dragged out of the ever-popular Hiding Spot for Badass Middle-Eastern Dictators, a hole in the desert: Muammar Gaddafi was killed by Libyan fighters he once scorned as “rats,” cornered, beaten and then shot in the head after his chaotic capture by fighters who overran his last redoubt on Thursday in […]
