Special Comment: Pandora's Box

Keith Olbermann weighs in on the SCOTUS Corporate Campaign Finance ruling



You may not have heard about this. I wouldn't be surprised if you hadn't. It's not like the MSM is actually talking about the fact that the Supreme Court of this country has just killed Freedom of Speech.

I knew this was coming back when Troglodyte and Darth Vader installed that neo-con miscreant Roberts as Chief Justice. All those that claimed he would not rule on party lines, that he was really a reasonable jurist, were either unbelievably naive or unconscionably mendacious. He has ALWAYS voted along the most neo-con lines, and his coterie of followers on the court have trucked along happily behind him, eviscerating what little freedom we have left bit by bit. That this was coming was inevitable, just a matter of time.

So the unofficial corporate ownership of the United States is now officially underway. The Founding Fathers must be weeping tears of blood. Shit, I can't even find the heart for a rousing A-S-S-H-O-L-E chorus. This is just that vile.

Okay, THIS has got to be one of the most disturbing pictures I've ever seen.

Don't worry - it's not gory or obscene or gross or insectoid or anything like that.

It's just really fucking WEIRD. In that "take something ordinary and photograph it in an entirely strange way" kinda way.


Found it last night and...it's still messing with my head.

Wait...WHAT?

So...did any of you have any idea that Anne McCaffrey is a fucking loon?


It’s a proven fact that a single anal sex experience causes one to be homosexual. The hormones released by a sexual situation involving the anus being broached, are the same hormones found in large quantities in effeminate homosexual males. For example, when I was much younger I knew a young man who was for all intents and purposes, heterosexual. He was mugged, and involved in a rape situation involving a tent peg. This one event was enough to have him start on a road that eventually led to him becoming effeminate and gay.

-- From a transcript of a Q&A with Anne McCaffrey, at the Weyr Horror Stories message board thread, message dated Thursday Jan 22, 2004.


I've never read any of her books, because frankly I've got better things to do with my brain than stuff it with silly-ass dragon fantasies, and now I'm thinking I'm VERY VERY GLAD that none of my money ever went to supporting this batshit moron.

Okay, somebody explain to me:

I understand that when Nathan was killed, Matt forced his soul into Sylar's body for safekeeping, and then ended up with Sylar's soul taking up space inside his own body. And I understand that Nathan sees himself when he looks into a mirror, and that because it's Nathan's soul, that's who we see - the actor that plays Nathan, not Zach Quinto who plays Sylar, because Nathan is the animating soul.

What I don't understand is - why does everyone else see Nathan? Why aren't Peter and Nathan's secretary reacting to Sylar standing in front of them, since it's Sylar's body? When Sylar takes over Matt's body, although we see Sylar, everyone else sees Matt, because it's Matt's body. But as Nathan is moving around and talking to people, they're seeing Nathan and not Sylar, even though it's Sylar's body. THIS MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE.

Is this as big a mistake as I keep thinking it is, or am I missing a piece of the puzzle here? Because IT'S DRIVING ME FUCKING NUTS.

NASHVILLE, Tennessee – A judge on Friday blocked a Tennessee law that allowed people to bring handguns into restaurants and bars.

The law that took effect in July allowed handgun owners with permits to pack their pistols in places serving alcohol, providing the establishments made more than half their profits from food.

Nashville Judge Claudia Bonnyman said the law was "fraught with ambiguity" and ruled in favor of a suit brought by restaurant owners who argued gun owners would not be able to determine if an establishment met the criteria.

"We will have vigilantes shooting up bars all over," said Randy Rayburn, the owner of three upscale cafes, who led opponents of the law.

Supporters were considering a possible appeal, or new legislation.



I don't know what the hell they were thinking passing a stupid law like that in the first place, but at least one judge was smart enough to know what a travesty it was.

Five Guys in a Limo

The most recognizable voices in the film industry
get together for an awards show.



Okay, you KNOW these voices. There isn't a single person who's gone to a movie in the U.S. who doesn't know them. Don LaFontaine, John Leader, Al Chalk, Mark Elliot, and Nick Tate - they are The Trailer Voiceover Guys.

Really, I'm not kidding here. As you play this video, close your eyes. When you're done, tell me you don't recognize each one of them. I dare you.

And yo, is it weird to finally see what they look like? I keep thinking the voices have been dubbed in, because they no longer sound like actual people. They're soundtracks. It's really strange...

Okay, I'm flabbergasted.


For the last three years, I have not made enough money to pay my income taxes. I kept putting off filing, one of those dumbass procrastination things where you hope it'll go away, especially when your income is so low that it's a tossup whether you'll end up with a bill you can't pay or you'll owe nothing at all. I haven't gotten any money BACK from the IRS for at least fifteen years now, so it was one or the other, and on top of the rest of my woes, I really wanted to hide my head in the sand and pretend the inevitable bills wouldn't exist.

Then about six weeks ago, I got a polite letter from the Feds saying basically, "Where the hell's the paper?" I made a few phone calls, got the info on forms, found out where the local IRS office is so I could keep being an asshat and file on THE VERY LAST DAY.

Yeah, I know. But I did it! And crossed my fingers that at least last year, when I hardly worked at all, might count to give me back a couple of hundred bucks to help buy groceries. (For those of you who don't know, which I know is practically everybody on my list, I've been on disability, unable to work for the last year because of a workplace injury. But that's a story for another time.) So I've been dreading the inevitable letter saying You owe us $X, please send your firstborn, kthxbi.


Just now, my dad knocked on my door, handed me my Netflix discs and three envelopes. From the U.S. Treasurey. Three window envelopes. With checks in them.

Remake Hell

First it was The Rocky Horror Picture Show.


Okay, I can sort of see why MTV'd want to remake that. Lots of music, dancing and kinky sex. Although I fully expect them to water it down, because let's face it, these days the media has an allergy to the kind of thing that RHPS so enthusiastically celebrated.


Then it was The Prisoner.


This one rankles me more. Hollywood has this bizarre notion that if you take something old and repackage it in shiny paper, somehow it'll be "better". But the problem is that slapping some CGI on a thing doesn't make it better; often the new style of FX actually ruins a story. In this case, the gods only know what computer-generated idiocy they'll come up with to replace that...white ball. There's no way they'll ever be able to top the fucking NIGHTMARES that thing gave me, and it wasn't even a special effect! It was just a goddamn rubber ball! A perfect example of imagination trumping big bucks, an idea that passed Hollywood by decades ago.

(Alright, it's going to have McKellen in it. But I'm sorry, that's not enough to make up for the STUPID idea of remaking it in the first place. Don't get me started on Jim "Messiah Complex" Caviezel, either...)


But this fucking beats them all.


The Three Stooges? Really?

I mean, I know the Farrelly Brothers are hacks who make their money off poop and fart jokes (without even the articulate snark of a Kevin Smith for balance), but this is just pathetic. How in the WORLD could anyone imagine this could work, given that the original series of shorts were created for an act that had already earned their name on the stage as vaudevillians? In other words, they weren't actors played scripted roles - they were comedians who'd developed their own characters which were then accommodated in the scripts they created for their short subjects. The idea of casting other guys to play them is...beyond moronic. Christ on a cracker, what next? The Tale of the Lonely Repairman, starring that Maytag guy?


Hey, Hollywood! If you're going to make silly movies based on old entertainment characters, how about a film version of The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers? I know a whole LOT of people who'd love to see that one. You could get Seth Rogen to play Fat Freedie, Jeff Goldblum to play Phineas, and Sam Elliott to play Freewheelin' Franklin. (He's got the mustache for it.) You'd have to do a talent search for Fat Freddy's Cat, but I'm sure there's an unknonwn out there who'd ace the part.

Now, THAT I'd pay to go see.

Here's something interesting.

Deadline issued to produce documents for LOTR trial

The whole thing's proceeding as trials do, but here is the part that caught my eye:


Trust attorneys maintain "The Two Towers" incorporates portions and scenes taken from other Tolkien books. The film company lawyers maintain they need to know how that claim is supported so they can prepare their defense.


Wait...WHAT?? Scenes from other Tolkien books? What scenes from other Tolkien books? Sure, PJ & Co. moved things around and added here and there in order to shape the story to the ends of their film, but...WHAT??

I don't know about you, but I'm pretty damn familiar with the legendarium, and I didn't recognize anything from other books in there. In fact, as I understand it, they bent over backwards not to include stuff from any of the other books, since they already knew going in what pricks the Tokien Trust are about this stuff.

Also, I heard just about EVERY DAMN ARGUMENT from the most purist, obsessed fans about every single frame of film in 2T, and this is one criticism I never heard. And if there's a group of people who would definitely know if something had been imported from another book, it's that bunch of sphincterheads.


So, let's hear it. Looking back on The Two Towers, do any of you recognize anything from any other Tolkien book in it? Something that's not from either the main text or the appendices to LOTR?

Wait...what?

From the AP wire:

Exotic dancer set on fire outside LA nightclub



Feb 5th, 2009 | LOS ANGELES -- An exotic dancer was set on fire outside the nightclub where she worked early Thursday, burning more than 60 percent of her body, police said. They were searching for two suspects.

A woman and a man called the 27-year-old dancer outside around 1 a.m. and then doused her with a flammable liquid next to the Babes & Beer sports club in the San Fernando Valley, police said.

Police identified the suspects as Rianne Celine Theriault-Odom, 27, and Nathaniel Marquis Petrillo, 22, both frequent patrons of the club. They were being sought for investigation of attempted murder, police said.

"Given the condition of this victim, they may be responsible for ultimately her murder," Deputy Chief Michel Moore said. "This is a terrible, terrible attack."

Moore said the dancer, a mother of two, was in grave condition after being burned over more than 60 percent of her body. Her identity was not immediately released.

A message left at the club was not immediately returned.

Children used to promote hatred and intolerance



So it's perfectly okay for right wingers to use children to push their hateful, intolerant agendas, but somehow it's horrifying when other people do so. Can you imagine the uproar if the other side pulled this kind of shit? They would be "promoting the homosexual agenda OHNOOOWTF!!"

Such integrity. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, like when black mold grows on the inside of your lungs.

TSA agent steals $200K worth of gear, resells it on eBay


Take note that the article says this guy's been doing this for a while. Yeah, I'm going to trust an agency that hires bottom feeders like this.

Another nice bit of info in the article, in case you travellers didn't know - when this kind of crap happens, the law insulates the air carriers. So, if some scumbag TSA "officer" decides to help himself to anything in your luggage, YOU CAN'T DO SHIT ABOUT IT.


Oh yeah, I feel safe in their hands. Real fucking safe.
