More on the Teabags

Posted by Brendan on March 17th, 2010 filed in BAH, blogs, calling bullshit, comedy gold!, politics, right wing dingalings

Here’s something I just don’t get about conservatives.
Here you have a group of people who consider themselves tough, clear-eyed realists. Remember when they were planning the war in Iraq (i use that term “planning” loosely)? they were all about “black coffee breakfasts” and shock and awe. When Americans torment and torture Muslim prisoners by [...]

Shorter Gail Collins: Americans Are Selfish Pussies

And she’s rigt, too:
As I was saying, last November, the Justice Department announced that the terror trial of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed would be held in Manhattan. Almost everyone in New York rallied around. This was seen as standing up to terrorism.
“It is fitting that 9/11 suspects face justice near the World Trade Center, where so [...]

Losers. Total F*%^ing LOSERS

Posted by Brendan on January 20th, 2010 filed in BAH, Democratic Idiocy, politics

The Democrats, in the wake of Massachusetts, are a bunch of whiney little fucking crybabies.
First, they beg the republicans to stop being so damned MEEEEEEEAN:
New Senate Democratic talking points, distributed in response to last night’s special election in Massachusetts show the party pre-emptively placing the blame for a lackluster agenda moving forward on Republicans, who [...]

UPDATED BELOW WITH VIDEO

oh look, another broken promise from Obama:
President Obama told House Democratic leaders at a meeting on Wednesday that they should include a tax on high-priced insurance policies favored by the Senate in the final version of far-reaching health care legislation, aides said…
But House Democrats have resisted the idea, which is also strongly [...]

Are You Being Served?

Posted by Brendan on October 22nd, 2009 filed in BAH, Philadelphia, general complaining, restaurant work, revenge

At Nara, a sushi place at the corner for 40th and Spruce Streets in West Philadelphia, I most certainly was not. Nor will I EVER go back.
Last night, after seeing Brendan Cooney’s masterful score for “Battleship Potemkin” (a one-night-only performance), Christina and I hurried over to Nara for birthday sushi. The restaurant closed at 10:00, [...]

This health care thing is driving me nuts.
I honestly don’t know who is accurate or not anymore. For every post you put up about the death of the public option, someone else who i respect just as much is saying the exact opposite.

Emails with a Wingnut

Posted by Brendan on August 12th, 2009 filed in BAH, calling bullshit, health care, nincompoopery, politics, ridiculous, right wing dingalings

yesterday on facebook, i had a hilarious, but ultimately sad and frustrating, exchange with a wingnut on health care reform. It was hilarious because wingnuts are SO FUCKING DUMB. It was sad and frustrating for the same reason. Even when the facts were spelled out in giant block letters with crayon, the wingnut [...]

Salsa Spill

Posted by Brendan on August 11th, 2009 filed in BAH, life, meta

My girlfriend has a bad habit of not screwing jar lids on securely and capping containers with lids that don’t fit. I don’t know where she picked it up or why she’s never corrected it, but this leads to all sorts of unfunny comedy around the house.

The Other Rotten Thing…

Posted by Brendan on July 22nd, 2009 filed in BAH, depression, meta, parenting

…that happens when I slip into the post-Sam low-level depression is that my ability to think goes out the window for a week or more.
So right now I’m at work, trying to move forward on several grants, and my mind just isn’t there. I’m not obsessing over Sam or sitting here welling up with [...]
