GIRAFFES! GIRAFFES! GIRAFFES! GIRAFFES!

Thank you, Sean Hackbarth — I’ve been waiting impatiently for this SNL giraffes video to appear on teh internets!

God, that’s awesome.

No, I’m not really back - the blogosphere still makes me violently ill with all the stupid bullshit and rabid, deranged libtards. (Go to hell, Obamabots!) I just wanted to post this (God’s gift to) video and delete some stupid troll droppings from moderation — because I can. Suck it up, Greg and other Obamabots — the others might be nice and approve your drivel while I’m away, but when I’m here, you can forget it. I’m away from the blogosphere because I can get more than my daily recommended allowance of dishonest bullshit just by watching David Axelrod and the other Obama goons on teevee. I don’t need to see the same shit spewed by a bunch of retarded losers pounding on keyboards, but thanks for your contribution anyway. I’m sure you trolls have provided my friends here and elsewhere with many hours of rollicking laughter. :P

I’ll be here for the Election Night live-blogging/chat. Delicate sensibilities should be left at the door. I’ll be sooo glad for this excruciatingly long election to be over! In the meantime, I’ll be busy calling people to get out the vote. WILL YOU? Do it, or shut up. (That’s another reason I’m over blogging - too much talk, waaaay too little ACTION.)

USE YOUR BRAIN, VOTE MCCAIN!

Keep it up, Leftards

You want to bring out the fight in someone? Talk trash about a mother’s child.

Leftards: you would be well-advised to think, for a change. (Change!) You mess with a woman’s child, you’re asking for the ~~hounds~~ lionesses of hell to be unleashed.

You miserable cretins are finished. I can not WAIT until November…this little blip in the news cycle just shows how utterly desperate you are.

Here’s a little visual aid to help you understand the issue. It’s Not So Hypothetical Now, Is It?

Is this thing on?

Yeah, I know, nothing much going on here the last several days. I’m not quitting or anything — school’s out for summer now, so I’m just kinda busy with the princess. :)

I’ve been wanting to write a nice long rant about the Obamination’s curious friends and “spiritual” (crazy Marxist) advisors/mentors, but I’d just be making noise. And no, quitting that “church” isn’t gonna make a damn bit of difference. Dude must think the voters are all a bunch of freakin’ idiots; granted, his supporters are, but the rest of us aren’t.

Be back later - today, tomorrow…?

Sorry, I’m busy

Working on campaign stuff, web design, and as a one-woman bury brigade over at digg (and I could sure use some help). ;-)

Also, sleeping.

Be back later, if anyone cares.

Pffffft.

Whatever.

The McCain Blogger Call, again (!)

:sigh: I didn’t think I was going to have to dwell on this. I should have known this would happen somewhere, though.

TL;DR (aka short version): If you tell the campaign to leave you alone, expect them to honor your wishes. If you’re obviously anti-McCain, don’t expect them to bombard you with emails; it’s called “courtesy.”

Long version: Michelle Malkin and others are pissed that libs were at the McCain blogger call and they weren’t.

The McCain campaign holds weekly blogger conference calls with its candidate. There are many questions I know you’d like asked, but I’ve never been able to ask them because I haven’t been one of the privileged few conservative bloggers allowed into the McCain sanctum to ask those questions for you.

Yesterday, I learned that several far left-wing blogs were invited to participate in The Maverick’s blogger conference call session (it’s part of that Big Vision Thing). I e-mailed McCain’s New Media guy, Patrick Hynes, asking if I could participate in the next blogger conference call.

After all, McCain said yesterday he’ll “listen to any idea that is offered in good faith and intended to help solve our problems, not make them worse” and “will set a new standard for transparency and accountability” and “will work with anyone, of either party, to make this country safe, prosperous and proud.”

If he’s willing to take questions from hostile liberal bloggers, why not take some from conservative bloggers who represent substantial readerships with dissenting views on how best to make this country “safe, prosperous, and proud?”

I left my response (Patrick Hynes has already responded that she could of course attend the next blogger call) in the comments there, but as this has spread around the conservative anti-McCain blogs as “evidence” (not) of him snubbing conservatives, I need to post it here, because this is wrong, wrong, wrong.

Here’s my response, as written in the comments at Michelle Malkin’s:

In fairness, John McCain has ALWAYS taken questions from conservative bloggers with substantial readerships who have dissenting views, and he has taken their questions. I’ve been calling in since before I was a supporter, just as I would have with all the other candidates had there been the opportunity. I’m absolutely certain he’d have been happy to have you interested in the calls. In fact, you are on the official campaign blogroll. So are some other conservatives who aren’t exactly in his corner, along with some supporters. (Notably, no liberal blogs are there.)

Actually, at some of the earlier calls, MOST of the questions were from conservatives with dissenting views. There’s no reason you couldn’t have been there; the difference is, those bloggers (i.e. some at Human Events, Red State, Polipundit, etc.) were on Patrick Hynes’ blog outreach email list. He put out the call a very long time ago for bloggers, and was met with a whole lot of “hell no” answers (which I only saw because some people stupidly hit “reply to all”). Others, like me, welcomed the campaign outreach so we could be better informed. I was on the FDT, Romney, and Huckabee lists as well (Giuliani’s emails were virtually non-existent, for some reason). I called in to the McCain blogger calls with an open mind, even when I was still a die-hard FredHead - and I was a Fredhead before most, since January ‘07.

John McCain has not ever excluded conservatives, whether they support him or not. It’s a shame more of us haven’t made the effort to get information from the campaign. It was at these blogger calls where he answers all types of questions, where I decided to support him when Fred dropped out - and he was an easy choice for me at that point.

It’s all about that blog outreach email list. If anyone wants on it, I’m sure all they’d have to do is ask.

And it’s not like people on that list aren’t blogging about these blogger calls, anyway, but then I know at least I have lost readers who don’t want to hear anything positive about John McCain. Gotta love the narrow-mindedness.

- - - - -

That was met with this nugget of (cough) “wisdom” (cough) in the comments:

Did anyone ask McCain about immigration on this conference call?

I saw a whole bunch of questions on foreign policy, and none on defending America. Looked to me like a very odd bunch of “conservative” bloggers.

And there you have it–a whole chunk of the anti-McCain conservatives in a ~~nutsack~~ nutshell.

Of course, nobody asked about immigration on this call, because this was probably the 50th or so conference call with him. It’s certainly been asked in other ones with him, though. Generally, people stick to topics that are currently buzzing through the media. I say “generally,” because occasionally there are different questions that one might not expect.

Looked to me like a very odd bunch of “conservative” bloggers.

Well, I was there, and I don’t even know everyone who called in. However, Jim Geraghty, Michael Goldfarb, and Jennifer Rubin certainly ARE conservatives, as am I.
Furthermore, Ed Morrissey (probably - he’s at all the others), Philip Klein from no less than The American Spectator (no liberal rag), at least one from Red State, and plenty of others with unassailable conservative credentials were there, and usually are there in other calls. As was I. Oh, I forgot - I’m an “open borders liberal” (LOL!) because I support McCain, in the eyes of some of these people.

I’m not making it up about Hynes getting his head bitten off when he first asked people about the email list something like a year ago, either. Most people appreciate it when they’ve asked not to be contacted if their request is honored. I’m guessing that if that particular commenter had been contacted about getting on the email list, he’d probably have said “no thanks,” at best. Consequently, he would also not have had the blogger call information.

Furthermore, I’ve personally invited conservative blogger friends who aren’t McCain supporters and aren’t on the email list if they’d like to call in. I’ve let everyone in my email group of bloggers (Cotillion) know. Some call in, others don’t because they can’t make it for whatever reason. But it’s not like they aren’t welcome - I’ve asked Patrick every time if I could invite others and he’s always said “yes, of course.” And guess what - some of those bloggers aren’t McCainiacs, either.

I suppose I could just as easily have emailed Michelle about the blogger calls as anyone else (not that email from me is “special” and read more carefully than anyone else’s), but based on her opinion of McCain, I figure such an email would be met with disbelief and/or left unanswered. She does get a ton of email, after all. My mistake, I guess.

Personally, I think it’s silly to assume the worst in everything, with regard to anything but especially to the Republican candidate. I don’t expect any conservative or Republican is going to march in lockstep with our elected leaders, but it’d be nice if people could at least be open-minded enough to consider that maybe they aren’t out to get you. The so-called McCain antipathy toward conservatives is wildly exaggerated, if not pure fantasy. But then, if people want to feel persecuted, I suppose that’s their choice (they need to get over themselves). I’m a lifelong conservative, and I don’t feel that way. I don’t agree with everything McCain is for, but I don’t agree with everything ANY candidate is for. 80% is more than good enough for me.

None on defending America.

LOL.
That line alone told me that commenter is beyond reason or facts. I’m not sure why I even bothered responding to it, but as I suspect the immigration-MDS crowd shares that sentiment, I did. It’s mind-boggling.

Seriously. How bad does it suck to feel victimized all the time? I just don’t get it.

stein hoist Also see: Doubleplusundead, for a good discussion in the comments with another conservative (a reasonable one) who’s dissatisfied with McCain. (Note to other cons pissed at McCain: that’s how you can be heard and influence opinion. Be reasonable.)

Wordpress 2.5 question

Have any of you who use Wordpress done the upgrade to 2.5 yet and encountered problems?

I upgraded my test database when it first came out, and a bunch of plugins weren’t ready. Have any of y’all upgraded more recently without plugin problems? What about the file uploader?

(Linking to McCain Blogs to see if I can drag in some answers from the trackback people.)

Hillary Supporters Defect from Kos

Because “racists” and “Republicans” aren’t accepted at Kos, of course, and as we all know, if you aren’t for Obama, you must be either a racist or a closeted Republican!

This is a strike - a walkout over unfair writing conditions at DailyKos. It does not mean that if conditions get better I won’t “work” at DailyKos again. As a regular contributor to the discourse in our community, I would certainly hope to take part in the conversation at DailyKos again some day if we ever get to the point where we’re engaging each other in discussion rather than facing off in shouting matches. But not now. Writers need a safe place to reach out and exchange ideas, to communicate and challenge one another. DailyKos should be that place, but its tone, its essence has evolved into something ugly and destructive. Good writers can’t survive in that kind of atmosphere. Democrats shouldn’t have to put up with that from fellow Democrats.

Get a load of this:

No, I won’t post specific attacks here. That would just be repeating the lies and the hate, but I will note that one of my fellow Kossaks (someone with whom I thought I could agree to disagree) went so far as to suggest that others try to dig up real life information on the pro-Hillary members of our community. To what end? Was his aim to find enough information on us to try to get us fired from our jobs and leave our families homeless – or worse? Suggesting that they dig up real life information on us is the lowest form of intimidation and goes way beyond the limits of all things civil and reasonable. It’s nothing more than the worst form of thuggish, hateful and intimidating behavior toward other members of our community.

Now in all fairness, that diarist saw just how far over the line he went with that post and eventually took it down. But the fact that he posted it in the first place shows us the kind of mob mentality that has been allowed to develop, grow and fester at DailyKos.

Welcome to reality, Alegre.

I know the Hillary supporters don’t want to hear it and don’t want sympathy, but they need not worry; I have little sympathy. I do empathize, however. I also find it amusing that they’ve just now figured out that the Daily Kos is an echo chamber. So are most blogs (including blogs on the right!), but Kos is a joke. It’s the largest blog (if you call it a “blog”) of all, and you’d think there would be some tolerance for various points of view, especially considering the fact that “liberals” (scare quotes intended) are always going on about how open-minded and tolerant they are. Of course, they aren’t. This is certainly not news to anyone to their right, either.

Now, I wouldn’t vote for Hillary or Obama, but one thing is obvious: Hillary is the more serious candidate, and anyone with two eyes can see that her supporters are more serious and reasonable than the feverish Obamessiah disciples. I’d say it’s an age thing, but how would you explain Chris Matthews and “thrills” he feels when Obama speaks? The fainting? The ovations for snot? Hillary has kooks supporting her too, but that’s the case with any candidate, and it’s quite obvious that the kooks are marginalized far more in her corner than they are in Obama’s. Even Bill Clinton has been silenced. Of course, that’s because you’re not allowed to criticize the Obamessiah on anything without it being seen as a racist attack. I still haven’t figured out how Slick Willie saying “fairy tale” is an appeal to racism. And see, that’s becoming a real problem with Obama. What’s that going to be like if he’s elected? Are people not going to be able to oppose anything without being called a racist or demonized in some other way? Is that really what this country needs? What kind of totalitarian BS is that? I thought Obama was supposed to be about “unity.” I guess that’s “just words.” And here’s a free tip to Hillary supporters: just as you (and we) don’t like being called racists for opposing Obama, Hillary’s opponents’ supporters don’t like being called misogynists, either. Besides, the cry of misogyny runs counter to what I thought her campaign is all about. I didn’t think her campaign was about “elect me because I’m a woman.” I thought it was supposed to be about issues, experience, and judgment. (She loses big-time to McCain on that, but still, she’s way ahead of Obama at least in experience and judgment.)

Via the Moderate Voice, Tom Watson, a Clinton supporter, gets real:

The resentment among non-Obama backers is growing rapidly - you can see it in the comments here, and I can see it in my emails. There’s a real split among party activists, and it’s getting wider. Some of it is motivated by the media’s love affair with one candidate - and hatred for the other; Keith Olbermann’s embarassment drove many over the edge. But much of it comes from boorish, Stalinist behavior online - the kind of “you’re either with us or against us” attitude we saw so much of when the Bush crowd was flying high. It’s disturbing, particularly because so many of the targets are women. This is not the Democratic Party many of us have worked for; this is not the progressive blogosphere we’ve supported. Without blaming the worthy candidacy of Senator Obama in any way, this is not a progressive movement - it’s a harsh, echo-filled politburo bathed in faux post-racial hosannas and the gauzy camera lens of “hope.”

Stalinist. Politburo. Hey, we’ve been saying that for years.

Anyway. I wonder what Hillary’s supporters will do when Obama officially gets the coronation (and I have no doubt that he will). I wonder if they’ll remember that Obama isn’t ready for that 3am call. I wonder if they’ll remember that he has not passed the Commander in Chief threshold. I know what I think they ought to do, but I’m biased. We would, of course, welcome them.

Sorry, I can’t give one here either

I had to steal this gif from my Bratty Brother, ’cause it suits me. :mrgreen:

don't give a damn

Meh. Blogging. Bored with it.

You Are 82% Burned Out

You are extremely burned out.
You work too hard, and you’re not getting the results you deserve.
It’s time for a life change, as soon as you can manage it.
You’re giving away most of your energy to something you don’t even enjoy.

Are You Burned Out?

Anyone wanna start a pool to guess when I’ll finally stop complaining about blogging and finally close up shop?

Eh, nevermind. I don’t expect anyone will answer, and I don’t have ESP. :eyeroll:

Today is a special day for MVRWC

Why, you ask? It’s because I have officially hit a new low in Blog Apathy™. I only tell you this because until I realized it, I couldn’t even have been bothered to post “I’ve got nothing.”

So there you go. Today, June 22, 2007, is the day I have officially cared the least about blogging. No reason, no crisis, no worries; it’ll pass. I think I’ll declare this the First Official (as opposed to the regular daily):

Blog Apathy Day™.

Here, go laugh for a bit. Forget politics for an hour.

UPDATE, thanks to John (Stansbury): An official banner! w00t! :clap:

Since it would be a crime to update this after Blog Apathy Day, as I’m doing now (it’s after midnight), I’m extending Blog Apathy Day™ to Saturday as well. Unless I feel like posting something. (OK, I do have a post that’ll publish in the morning, but that sorta doesn’t count.)

Blog Apathy Day 2007

Now why didn’t I think to make up a cool banner?

Oh yeah. Apathy.

Milly Molly Mandy Mary getting married?

We had a two-minute-hate directed against this idiot sometime last year, but guess what?

OMG, OMG, O M G!!!! Jackie Mackie Paisley Passey….might be getting………MARRIED!!!!!

In other news, I got along with all the future in-laws and they seem to like me well enough despite me not being a Christian (which didn’t come up this weekend, but his mom and sister had both fretted about it to him when we started dating). GK had told his mom before our visit that he was going to marry me and buy a house with me soon and by the way she treated me this weekend (very nicely) she seems to be OK with that.

Exit question: Could you care any farking less about anything? anything AT ALL?

Good. Me neither.

OHNOES! Joe Klein hurt the lefty bloggers’ feewings!

Awwww. How dare that big meanie Joe Klein, right-wing fascist that he is, say people should “beware” the happy, sunny liberal blogosphere? It’s all rainbows and kittens there! Surely he must have them mixed up with the wingnuts! Waaaahhh!

But the smart stuff is being drowned out by a fierce, bullying, often witless tone of intolerance that has overtaken the left-wing sector of the blogosphere. Anyone who doesn’t move in lockstep with the most extreme voices is savaged and ridiculed—especially people like me who often agree with the liberal position but sometimes disagree and are therefore considered traitorously unreliable. Some of this is understandable: the left-liberals in the blogosphere are merely aping the odious, disdainful—and politically successful—tone that right-wing radio talk-show hosts like Rush Limbaugh pioneered. They are also justifiably furious at a Bush White House that has specialized in big lies and smear tactics.

Bush-bot! Fascist right-winger! Silence him!!!

Really, he’s just now writing about this? Pardon my American, but no shi’ite, Sherlock. Funny how liberal journalists only object to the lunacy when it’s aimed at them. Also, it’s a bit of a stretch, to say the least, that talk radio hosts are like leftard bloggers. You could make the case for Ann Coulter being that extreme in her rhetoric (although she keeps her language clean!), but other than that idiot Michael Savage (and I never see RW bloggers riding on his bandwagon, ever), the only thing “odious” about conservative talk radio that I’ve ever heard is the conservative politics that are “odious” to the left. But whatever; I’m not going to go out of my way to stick up for talk radio ’cause it’d require my listening to it more often than on rare occasion, to know what I’m talking about.

So basically, Joe Klein gets little sympathy from me because this happens all the time. I’d list examples, but there are so many it’s hard to know where to even start. That said, nobody deserves the vile abuse heaped upon the left’s latest targets (like this one). But you know, that’s the power of anonymity and being a not-so-anonymous nobody–you can be as hateful as you want, with no fear of being held personally responsible for your words. That’s why the talk radio example fails–if, for example, Bill O’Reilly said “screw ‘em” about Americans killed in Iraq, radio stations would drop him like a bad habit. I know Michael Savage has suffered loss of station coverage because of his nastiness. But what happens when Markos Moulitsas says “Screw ‘em?” A bunch of right-wing bloggers and (presumably, but I don’t know) talk radio people point it out and complain, but has it hurt his bottom line? I’d say not one bit. How many NEW readers did Firedoglake and Steve Gilliard get when they put up blackfaced pictures of their targets of hate? How many others have ended up losing (or quitting) their jobs after facing the wrath of the angry mob? How many angry right-wingers go around stalking and threatening the families of other bloggers or anyone else?

Have I mentioned that I think the blogosphere pretty much sucks mud?

Welcome to reality, Joe. Bring a friend or two.

That giant sucking sound you hear is the blogosphere, folks.

CoComment tells me I am hating the blogosphere

I dunno, maybe I need to take a break from other blogs again so my crankiness will dissipate. ;-)
Just a sample from last night–

At Sister Toldjah’s post about immigration:

To see conservatives use arguments on one another that have in general been used almost exclusively towards the far left is disappointing and is one of the reasons I haven’t been blogging extensively on the issue. … But this time around, I’ve taken a decidedly low-key approach to talking about the issue.

You and me both. I loathe the issue because of the way people have behaved. And yes, your inbox would be filled with (absurd) accusations of treason, sympathy with La Raza (!), and other ad hominem fallacies. And this being the blogosphere, you’d see some of the ugliest language used (”wetback,” “spic,” etc., all while complaining that SOME are called bigots!). :eyeroll:
This issue has shown that stupidity really has nothing to do with political affiliation…you can see it on full display on all sides of this issue. Our own side has made me uncharacteristically apathetic about this issue–and it’s too bad for the hard-liners that they just don’t understand how repellent their rhetoric is, or the effect it’s having.

I still can’t believe the reaction to last week’s Linda Chavez column, where she rightfully called out those who are making it an ethnic issue. I wasn’t offended, but then to me, immigration isn’t just about Mexicans. I’m a lot more concerned with people like the Fort Dix Six and the 9/11 hijackers(!) than I am with a bunch of freakin’ day laborers and blue collar workers.

Pffft. Life’s too short to be so damn angry. I thought we, as conservatives, knew as much.

(Don’t even get me started on the “Imp**** Bush” morons–they’re DEAD to me.)

Comment by Beth @ 6/5/2007 - 12:00 am

Stop right there for a second. NO, I am not defending the stupid immigration bill, OK? (I’m so tired of explaining that.) End of story. Moving right along…

At Captain Ed’s post about civility, specifically surrounding (shocker!) the immigration issue:

:sigh:

Typical blogosphere BS; an appeal for civility ends up being met with a round of incivility. Well, let me pile on, then.

Captain Ed, you know how everyone talks about the toxic political climate we have these days (or for the last few years)?
You know what it coincides with–the rise of blogs. I’m convinced after three years blogging that the mentally disturbed (or at least personality-disordered, or maybe it’s just plain old Tourette’s) are vastly overrepresented on blogs. It’s spread to the MSM and the Beltway, and infected the whole country.

And this stuff Bush said last week: Good grief, y’all need to GET OVER IT. Like y’all don’t say worse things every single day about him and everyone else? Is freaking out about a tossed-off comment really helping anything? Do y’all REALLY think he meant you don’t want anything good for this country? Please. It’s not like Bush is the most eloquent speaker, you know.

I was trying to be civil there.

And at Allah’s post about Fred! and the internet campaign:

Dean thought he had a winning strategy and it collapsed on him. As AP pointed out the blogosphere is just not that heavily populated yet. Personal opinion is that the debates will be what makes him take off or flop.

Bradky on June 4, 2007 at 11:13 PM

Ditto that. I don’t think using teh innertubes indicates laziness, though. Of course, what matters is what the stupid media thinks. I think it indicates interest in what the grassroots (as opposed to the nutroots) are saying; a good link to the voting public.
That said, UGH. I hope he isn’t too heavily involved in the internets. It’s loaded with landmines (aka loud-mouthed, spoiled amateurs who will end up embarrassing him sooner or later. I seriously doubt he’d invest that much time in the internet, anyway. Even if he wanted to, I would hope his advisers/handlers/whatevers would set him straight. I personally don’t care about the conservative blogosphere getting a boost; I care about the right candidate being elected.
And frankly, the conservative blogosphere, of which I am a part, doesn’t really deserve any favors, IMHO. We SUCK at fundraising, organization, and using available technology, as a whole, and I’m tired of trying when most people just have excuses why they can’t donate, plan, or act. Sign an online petition? No problem. Write a blog post? Yay. Cough up $20 to help keep a GOP majority or support a worthy political candidate? Blasphemy! (How many of the people here have pledged to never donate?) Why should Fred Thompson or anyone else come to the conservative blogosphere for support?
I hope he knows what he’s in for, ’cause 2008 isn’t going to be easy for any Republican–and it won’t be because of the laughable Dummocrat candidates.

bamapachyderm on June 5, 2007 at 2:37 AM

I dunno, I think I might have a little bit of an attitude problem these days. Bah humbug. The blogosphere sucks! Blogging sucks! I think I need to do something fun with this, or whatever. Lately all my laughs online have been coming at others’ expense or in morbid humor via email. Like this:

Frank Lampard is a soccer player who was awful against Brazil last week. A letter-writer at ********.com sent the following, which only you will get:

In the England match on Friday I thought Frank Lampard went missing for such long periods that his parents might get asked to meet the Pope.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

OK, obviously “only you will get” didn’t work out that way. I laughed so hard at this that I didn’t even ask if I could post it–I have to. See? Morbid humor via email. Seriously, though–you think Frank Lampard’s parents would be blogging their visit with the Pope? (Sorry, no link–if you don’t know what I’m talking about, don’t ask. I’m already going to hell for laughing about it.)

Y’ever have those ~~days~~ ~~weeks~~ months where you sort of wish for another Mohammed cartoon or Jesse MacBeth incident, because it provided such unending laughs?

Here’s something else that cracked me up–I found it at a nasty Christian-bashing feminist site (Feministing, which I won’t link because of the painfully stupid, hateful comments there), but it is absurd: Virtue Perfume. Perfume for Christians. Because it’s “spiritual fragrance” that “mimics the spiritual process.” All fragrance elements are “drawn from Biblical text.” Yours for the low, low price of $80! HAHAHAHA. Crass commercialism at its best! (What, no fake testimonials from the Virgin Mary?) See–how pathetic is the conservative blogosphere lately that I had to find a laugh through an angry leftard site? Come on, people…lighten up! (Not you regulars here; I mean the rest of the stupid blogosphere.) The LEFT is the angry, humorless side, remember?

Thank God for Something Awful, for putting it all in perspective.

We live in an exciting age, the era of the Internet, where mass communication allows people of all colors and creeds to interact and speak out in a variety of ways. Today I have decided to present some notable quotes from the visionaries who help shape our online world and drive it towards new horizons. Hopefully it will put this whole Internet thing into perspective just as it did for me.

Not that shi’ite; it’s in the rest of the article, ya goons. :2orly:

Absolutely must-read update: The Anchoress is FED UP with blogtards, too. Go read!

I hate the blogosphere

Well, I’ve had it. I’m going to hang out at Sadie’s and some other apolitical blogs for a while. Maybe here, too. Frankly, both sides of the political blogosphere make me sick right now. Bunch of farking hysterical moonbats.

Most political bloggers are just clueless and embarrassing.

[Uncle Sam - I want you to grow up]

UPDATE: Anyone who uses the words “wetback,” “beaner,” “Messican,” “Jorge Arbusto,” or any other slur about Hispanics here will be dealt with exactly as I deal with those who say “nigger” or “kike.” 403, baby. Test me.

You bloggers who allow it (worst example: Polipundit, but that’s old news) need to clean up that shi’ite. It’s not only offensive, it’s self-defeating. Think about it.

And when threats of violence and rape aren’t vile enough…

You can always attack the dying and/or dead.

No, that link’s not about the soulless sociopaths celebrating Tony Snow’s cancer, it’s about a petty, vicious little bottom-feeder taking a dump on Cathy Seipp in her final days. And even a so-called friend of hers with some ugliness (no link, you can find it) after she died.

Somebody please remind me why we even bother with blogs. Is it even worth it? ‘Cause I’m just not seeing it, and every day I lose a little more faith in humanity. If people are as hateful in real life as they are on teh internets, we’re in deep shi’ite.
