Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Not all heroes wear capes.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

Let there be snark.

Consistently wrong since 2002

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Gary went in for his spay/neuter, and while all his brothers and sisters were being attended to, the mother tested positive for feline leukemia. This means he has to be quarantined for three months and then be tested.

Here are some pictures to sate you:

Kitty Update 2

He is ornery as hell and purrs so loud it sounds like someone through gravel in a coffee can and is shaking it.

Oh yeah- his name is Gary.

*** Update ***

Gary is quarantining at the foster. They will not adopt him out until he has been tested in three months.

I hope it’s a joke, because I’d never touch that ice-cream maker again…

Your Orange Cat is Nuts I Don’t Care What You Say

Yesterday I asked a simple question on the internet:

MAN ARE PEOPLE DEFENSIVE.

I am sure your orange kitty is very sweet and lovable, but that doesn’t change the fact that it and every other orange cat is bonkers. My cat Oliver, who was around for about a year before running off into the ether, was a nutter. He was the one who lived with me and Tunch briefly and would do this thing where he would find wherever Tunch was sleeping, and then do laps around the house with every pas jumping over Tunch. He refused to be an indoor cat, and would bolt outside every morning as I was leaving, and then when I got home he would be sleeping on the top of the neighbor’s car waiting for me. He would disappear sometimes overnight. One night, I looked for him, gave up, and went to bed. As I was leaving the apartment, I heard two girls in the apartment above say “bye sweetie we’ll see you after work” and thought “?????,” looked up, and out sauntered Oliver out of their apartment. Then, one day, he just never came home.

Gerald’s cat, Dickhead, is a nutter. They tried other names for him, as he is a family cat, but none of them stuck because… he was always being a dickhead.

So again, why are all orange cats nutjobs?
