"I'm here to fix the cable from the government, and I'm here to help."
Heh. Said while holding a sixty page form to be completed in triplicate and a butt plug.
Let me show you why they call me 'Big Goverment.'
Too creepy to comment on.
Where is the ogged of yesteryear?
Commenter: An earnest and unironic "what is your favorite porn" thread
ogged: Just about the worst idea ever, unless your plan is to kill the blog forever.
The title of the book is, "The Emerging Democratic Majority" so maybe a peepshow thing instead.
You can't step into the same ogged twice.
As far as I'm concerned this (.2) is the blog's best-ever porn comment.
I'm going to continue with depressing political pornography in this thread. "Centrist" and flat-out racist Ron Fournier not happy that the White House Negro didn't get the message (not linking).
From all appearances Wednesday, the president won't change--not his policies, not his style, not his staff, not nothing. Defiant and begrudging, the president said he would meet with GOP leaders, seek their suggestions for common ground, and maybe grab a drink with Senate Majority Leader-to-Be Mitch McConnell.
And in the beyond-parody category Politico chimes in with "Wall Street has a good election. (no link to those dicks either). Finally! Was wondering when those guys would catch a break.
There oughta be a niche of gangbang movies that feature one woman pegging guys wearing brightly colored bandanas.
11: it would be better if it used "who" rather than the incorrect "whom".
14 is correct about incorrectness but not about betterness.
16 is always worth recalling but is not a particularly exceptional comment qua comment.
This post was funny. That you all recoiled is evidence that, I don't know, you have kids and you're worried they're going to end up in porn. Fair enough; I worry about your kids, too.
Better that than bringing home a Republican boyfriend/girlfriend.
20: Honestly, I fell like it sort of ignores the ways women skew Democrat, unless "gangbang" is a lot more gender-neutral than I'd generally assume it is.
23 put me in mind of the passage from Hunter S. Thompson's Hells Angels about "you know some women they can't get their jollies with just one guy" and then I went back and looked at it and the whole chapter is just rape rape rape.
I think "gangbang" is pretty gender-neutral in most contexts. In any case the title is appropriate to the demographics, given certain physiological factors.
How many contexts are there for "gangbang"?
24 reminds me that it's Dhalgren season again. I took it out a week or so ago but haven't started rereading.
I feel like I'm really missing the joke, and out of denseness, not humorlessness.
23 put me in mind of the passage from Hunter S. Thompson's Hells Angels...
God, the glorification of one percenters fucking kills me.
I think "gangbang" is pretty gender-neutral in most contexts.
Dude, what?
I admittedly have not encountered the term "gangbang" in very many context. I mostly said that to set up the second sentence in 25.
As SP notes, there's a book titled "The Emerging Democratic Majority" that was kind of a big deal in political geek circles a few years ago, and its thesis is roughly that (crude paraphrase) the browning of America will lead to an enduring majority for the Democrats. So, change "emerging" to "coming," make it interracial, and there's your joke. Don't ever make me do this again.
Oh, then I guess it was humorlessness after all.
36: That's probably for the best, overall.
Come on man, you're young and single in the farth north. Time to get out there and starting tagging ass like you're not going to see the sun for six months.
tagging ass
He might get the context wrong and use a pricing gun.
Anyway, I have some bad news for gswift about demographics.
Fucking Dhalgren, man. I've read that book twice and I'm still not sure what it's about. Narrative or some damn thing?
I assumed everyone got the joke, but didn't have anything interesting to say.
Some damn thing. I liked an awful lot of Dhalgren (including the Socratic dialogue between George Harrison and June, if that's what 27 recalls), but at some point all the play-by-play sex really got to be rrrgh. I said as much to an older Delany fan of my acquaintance, and he told me, "No, that's just naturalism. It was the seventies."
27 actually more generally recalls all the play-by-play sex, which it's easier to zoom through each time I reread. It's just good (for me) to have a familiar yet uncomfortable dystopia to go to when the weather gets colder and the world is awful.
And I'd vote narrative more than some damn thing, but I always vote narrative because I think it's the human condition.
I always vote narrative
Voters like you are the problem.
48: Whatever, Pauline Kael. You don't know what it's like out here in the real world!
More narrative, apparently. Here in the bubble it's just one damn thing after another.
I spent a month in the real world one weekend.
Times Square: Evidence that there's a slow leak in the real world.
Defiant and begrudging, the president said he would meet with GOP leaders, seek their suggestions for common ground, and maybe grab a drink with Senate Majority Leader-to-Be Mitch McConnell.
This is like a running joke with him. Remember that speech to the press creche? "Some folks still don't think I spend enough time with Congress. 'Why don't you get a drink with Mitch McConnell?' they ask. Really? Why don't you get a drink with Mitch McConnell?"
