Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

He really is that stupid.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

This country desperately needs a functioning fourth estate.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

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

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Fantasy Football Update!

The Elitist Meritocracy Conference of the BJFL is full up with top performers from last year’s 4 conferences. I am too lazy to run more than one conference, but other juicers have stepped into the breach. The Wignut Welfare Conference of the BJFL is now open for signup on Yahoo; the password to join is alsotoo:

Another B-J regular has set up a third league on ESPN.com. He’s going to use an auction draft system – I’ve never played that way but it sounds interesting. Some other fine points of rules and scoring may be different too, but top finishers in this league will also be invited to the Elitist Conference in 2012:

Opening Day is Thursday and fantasy drafts are going down Tuesday-Wednesday of this week….don’t be late!

    Yeah…I wish I had the time to dedicate to something like this. But the way my work schedule is I’d never make a draft unless it was late at night.

    Yep, I expect that next year I’ll invite top finishers from this year’s conferences to fill most of the Elitist Conference.

    And btw, I’d agree that “football” is sort of a silly name for a sport in which the act of kicking the ball is a “special” event. I actually like the British name for our game, “gridiron” – but then I’m a godless soshulist.

    Drafted on Friday, and went with *gulp* Arian Foster with pick number 4. Making matters worse, my favorite RB2s (Stephen Jackson, Matt Forte) were off the board in round two, so I went with *double gulp* Frank Gore. Lot of risk tied up in those two. At least I don’t have Peyton Manning.

    Meanwhile, in a sport that I actually give a shit about, my Detroit Tigers have followed a weekend sweep of the Chisox with an equally delicious road win in Cleveland. Life is good.
