So i just held my nose and dialed up the CNN website and came across the bland disclosure of the assets of upcoming US presidential hopefuls:
Republican Rudy Guiliani: $45 million in assets ($16.1 million in just the past 6 months)
Democrat John Edwards: $29.5 million in assets
One has to wonder what these douche-bags could have even REMOTELY in common with the average person living in the US, no? Consider the lifestyles that come with such obscene concentrations of wealth (and decision making power) and these guys might as well be from another planet. Yet people will still vote for them in droves. Wha…?
As every day goes by, i become more and more certain that i myself was dropped off on the wrong planet 37 years ago. Will someone PLEASE wrap me in a towel, stick me in a basket on the front of their Kuwahara and tabletop some cop cars on the way to what’s left of the forest so my real parents (Hammerhead and Greedo) can pick me up? Thank you.
Propagandhi = Justin Bieber – To be honest i'm not even sure i know who Justin Bieber is, but as you can see in this interview with Junior Battles, we have been mentioned in the same sentence. This pisses me right off. I think. I assume. (09/09/10 by Jesus H. Chris #)

Oh No! Not Another Post About Animal-Rights! – How much more can the poor, persecuted supporters of the animal-exploitation industry take?!?

Won't somebody save the defenseless meat-eaters from these heinous studs advocating a plant-based diet?!? Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh! (08/27/10 by Jesus H. Chris #)

Edumaction – I never got past high-school, but maybe if there were more educators like this guy, i would've been more interested in learning instead of cutting class to watch a shitty beta copy of Kreator's "Toxic Trace" video for the 100 zillionth time. (07/27/10 by Jesus H. Chris #)
