Add this to the list of things I don’t want my students to see/do:

And not that purple dinosaur who has ruined so many millions of parents lives. At any rate, Barney Frank unplugged, shredding Gingrich:
Is there a funnier congressman?
This is simply excellent. Love Cain’s stats. And Newt’s Deity.

This made me laugh- Politico did a blind taste test of five pizzas, including Herman Cain’s brand, and the results were unsurprising:
I doubt you could serve Godfather’s pizza to drunks.

You should spend some time looking through the archives. It’s probably more amusing for those of you who are litura-cha enthusiasts.

Open Thread.
UPDATE: TooManyJens pointed out that this is an old headline from a student newspaper. I reckon it’s making the rounds again because of this:
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., said definitively on Monday that President Obama’s $447 billion jobs bill will not be brought to the floor as a package, despite repeated calls from the White House to move on his legislation.
“The president continues to say, ‘Pass my bill in its entirety,’ and as I’ve said from the outset, the all-or-nothing approach is just unacceptable, and I think from a purely practical standpoint, the president’s got some whipping to do on his own side of the aisle,” Cantor told reporters.
Instead, Cantor said the House will move forward on legislative initiatives in October in which there is some agreement between the two ends of Pennsylvania Avenue: making permanent the 3 percent withholding provision for government contractors included in Obama’s jobs bill; passage of three long-stalled trade pacts with Colombia, Panama, and South Korea; further repeal of regulations restricting business; and a bill coming out of the Financial Services Committee that will increase small business owners’ access to capital.
“All of these things the president has spoken about and represents areas of commonality where we can boost economic growth and produce an environment for job creation,” Cantor said.
Movement on the trade bills is the most significant announcement. Aides to Cantor said a more detailed announcement was expected as early as Monday afternoon outlining how Congress will move forward on the trade pacts.
Phew! A quick save by me. I’m totally current, y’all. You’ve heard about “lolcats,” right?

Ridonkulous. (I said that already, didn’t I?)
The entire series is streaming on Netflix. A couple weeks ago, I decided to watch it. I made it half-way through one episode and decided to start watching Doctor Who instead.
David Tennant > William Shatner.
Dalek > Gorn.
Oh, and Open Thread!
P.S. Someone pointed out, rightfully, that I should compare old Doctor Who episodes to old Star Trek episodes. To that, I say—I’d rather watch David Tennant! (Haven’t gotten to Matt Smith yet…)

“The left wing, spineless. The right wing, heartless. The center, clueless. You’re so clueless and apathetic, you don’t even know what apathetic means. You’re so apathetic, you can’t even be bothered to look it up…
“Many people are surprised that libertarians are at the far right—they think of the Tea Party as the far right. But the Tea Party is a fascinating mixture of the far right of the political spectrum and the far center of the political spectrum, an explosive mixture of radical individualism and extreme cluelessness. These are people who believe in Social Darwinism, but they don’t believe in Darwin.“

I’ve been having trouble accessing the site all day, so it’s not just you, okay?
You’re welcome.
Oh, consider this an open thread and stuff.

Okay, fine, there are a lot of things that are worse. Like BP. Spencer Pratt. Animal cruelty. Justin Bieber. Improper grammar. Ed Hardy. Still, swamp ass is up there on the List of Things That Suck.

Wow, really? REALLY? It is 2010 and some asshats at an advertising agency actually greenlit this ad campaign which suggests that a clean vagina is most important for confidence at work? Who the…?? What the…?? Why the…?? How the…?? Where the fuck?
This ad campaign is so unbelievably sexist—so utterly ridonkulous—that I figured it must be a joke. I mean, Summer’s Eve cannot possibly be suggesting that a woman’s stinky vagine may be preventing her from grabbing that brass ring. Not in 2010. Maybe in the 1950s. But not in 2010.
Well, it’s not a joke.
Here it is. Read it, weep, and then go clean your vagina:
Just so we’re clear, here’s how you can be better equipped to ask your boss for a raise:

This video goes into the dictionary next to the phrase “word salad.” Sarah Palin clearly took notes.
