Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The revolution will be supervised.

Let’s finish the job.

I’m more Christian than these people and I’m an atheist.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

FFS people, this was a good thing. take the win.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

Donald Trump, welcome to your everything, everywhere, all at once.

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

An almost top 10,000 blog!

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

ha ha ha! Nice try weird people.

Somebody needs to explain to DeSantis that nobody needs to do anything to make him look bad.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Bogus polls are all they’ve got left. Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls a year from now.

American History and Black History can not be separated.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

This post is in: ,

I’m treating tonight like Friday as this is a four day week-end, so if you expect something substantive from me, move on. I do want to pass on this little tale:

A repeat public indecency offender has been arrested for allegedly engaging in “sexual activity” with a pink inflatable swimming pool raft, according to Hamilton police.

Edwin Charles Tobergta, 32, was arrested at his Harmon Avenue home early Sunday after he was spotted in the act in an alley in the 1800 block of Howell Avenue behind a residence, a police report shows.

A male witness, who owns the raft and lives in the home near the alley, told Hamilton Police Officer William Thacker he shouted at the suspect to stop.

Tobergta took the raft and fled, the report states.

When police caught up with him, he admitted to the crime and begged for help, according to police.

Putting aside the sadness factor of him begging for help, I’m not sure what is my favorite part of the story. That he was having sex with a raft, that it wasn’t his raft, or that when he was caught, before running, he made sure to take the raft with him. But wait, it gets better:

According to court records, he has four other public indecency charges in Hamilton Municipal Court and another in Butler County.

In one public indecency case in 2002, he was caught having sex with an inflatable pumpkin that was part of a Halloween display.

What happened in the eight years that made him go from a pumpkin to a raft?

And if all you are going to do is tell me I am horrible person and should not be snickering at this, I completely agree. I’m a horrible person.

    I have to figure the raft had more flexibility than a pumpkin.besides he’d have to wait two months for the neighbor to put out the pumpkin

    Great title post too. If you can’t hear Goodman yelling it, I feel sorry for you.

    Although technically it was Smokey who was over the line. In a league match, no less.

    I mean, it’s not Vietnam. There are rules.

    To be fair to the man, the raft was only half-inflated and didn’t even have a cover on. It was asking for it!

    I’m going to imagine this person somehow imprinted on some kind of inanimate object when he hit puberty. Poor guy.

    Don’t covet thy neighbors raft.

    Maybe he figured out it ain’t the size of the pumpkin, but the motion of the ocean, or something.

    I once worked in Hamilton as a public health inspector, fucking cesspool, full of enterprising wingnuts and their dubious shenanigans. This guy shoulda married the pumpkin and left town a long time ago.

    Jeebus. A raft and a pumpkin, WTF? And seriously, dude, if you’d quit stealing other people’s inflatables to fuck, just buy your own and do it in the privacy of your own home! No one will care. In fact, they make inflatables for that specific purpose. You can buy them on the Internet.

    Another laugh I had today was being called out by name as some kind of mindless Obot in a thread by one of the idiot emoprogs infesting this place. This, on a day on which I was the very first comment in a thread and was about my greatest disappointment with Obama. But I didn’t call him a weakling or call for primarying him, so I guess that kind of criticism doesn’t count. Made me giggle.

    @John O: After being arrested and told this he was probably like,”What? They have inflatable women?”

    Probably Boehner’s district.

    And Cole, I recommend watching the Steeler pre-game tonight (do you get KDKA?). It will probably be better than the game. Word is, not a single starter tonight. Typical of the last pre-season. But they’re showing a good review of last season.

    My Grandfather had guy appear in his court, charged with indecent exposure and intent to endanger. The guy owned a neighborhood tavern, one Saturday he hung a sign outside that advertised “Nickel Taps”. Needless to say, the bar was packed. After about two hours a patron noticed the guy was slipping the beer mugs up under his apron. He was sloshing his dick and balls in the beers just before he served them! He got sentenced to the state mental hospital and lost his liqour license. Grandpa said the guy didn’t say much in court he just sat there with a grin on his face.

    @WaterGirl: We are talking about a guy who boffs inflatable rafts; I think we should be happy if he simply emails his credenza-god only knows what else he might think to do with it.

    How are you even supposed to have sex with an inflatable pumpkin? I mean, drilling a hole in it wouldn’t work too good…

    Living in southwestern Ohio is like having front row seats to a never-ending fail parade.

    Now it speaks the truth.

    Why, yes, I grew up in Ann Arbor. How did you guess?

    @Omnes Omnibus: You’re right, the bar needs to be pretty low for someone like that. I’m with singfoon in thinking that the guy somehow imprinted on some kind of inanimate object when he hit puberty. So sad. But I’m still enjoying the hell out of this thread.

    Tonight is the last night the pool is open until 8pm, and I have been looking forward to a solitary swim on a beautiful night, in a pool that is empty except for me, just like it was on tuesday night. Now I see that it’s still 95 (ick) so there will be a million people there (also ick). Oh well, last late night of the pool season, I have to go for it.

    And this (Hamilton OH) is not too terribly far from where Big Butter Jesus was immolated during a thunderstorm, while the Hustler porn shop across the interstate was unbothered during the storm. Or, what Jen Jen said.

    I don’t remember the name of the reality show but an episode I did see (was channel surfing at the time) was about this guy and his inflatable girlfriend and how he bought he clothes, fixed her hair and makeup, etc. He was thinking about buying another one. Frakking insane.

    Once you legalize gay marriage, it’s just a step to incest, polygamy, man-on-raft, anything.

    My last comment is in moderation, apparently because I edited it to include the word for carnal relations between blood relatives. Meanwhile my previous post, which had the word “fuck”in it, sailed right through. What the fucking fuck?

    Clearly, there needs to be a ban on plastic inflatables. Liberal permissiveness has gone too far. Especially with those sparkly blue seahorse pool floats, which anyone can buy.

    There is no mystery here, John. Just look at the sensual curves on tha raft, the pumpkin, and you will understand that this poor follow has too much “juice” for his strength to contain. But you…not horrible.
