Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

Be a wild strawberry.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

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

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Keep the Immigrants and deport the fascists!

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

So many bastards, so little time.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

Stand up, dammit!

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

When I was faster i was always behind.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

New Dishwasher

by John Cole|  August 24, 200610:18 am| 46 Comments

This post is in: Open Threads

I got a new dishwasher yesterday. I had been washing my dishes by hand for 2 years, and I just wanted to say that now that I have a dishwasher, only insane people wash their dishes by hand.

That is all.

*** Update ***

FYI- a funny anecdote. As an undergrad many years ago, in a drunken stupor I came home and put all the clothes I had been wearing in the dishwasher and blew up some component because my jeans got wrapped around the agitator thing at the bottom. True story.

I guess I thought it was the washing machine. I also recently lost my cell phone and found it in the freezer. Unfortunately I was sober when I did that.

I would give my kingdom for a [fill in the blank].

My answer: a slightly larger kingdom.
