Sympathy for the Dolly

What you are feeling may be uncomfortable but not unfamiliar.  After the intial shock, you recognize the same fear that’s activated when confronted by clowns.  You may find yourself yelling at the screen for Alice to run.  Or are fighting the urge to flee the room yourself.  I’ll wait for you to come back before I finish.

The entire upsetting scene can be found here, in context.  If you dare. 

If you are normal, Carol Channing will have that effect on you.  When the goat appears, it’s becomes a brand new kind of nightmare.  You now understand why the goat is the sign of the devil  Think  Sympathy for the Devil meets Hello Dolly.  The play, the actress and the sheep.  Or goat.  Whatever.  Works both ways.  The point is…

There may be more of her running around. 

Talk to you next week.



A St Patrick’s Day Message From Your Friends at 30 Rock

For those of you sensitive to that kind of thing, other ethnicities are insulted on the show as well.  Generalissimo is also one of the funniest episodes of the season.   Is nothing sacred?  Well, no.  But they do mean well.  

Don’t let 30 Rock fall into obscurity.  Please watch before it gets cancelled or you’ll come to regret it for the rest of your life.   Please tell other people to watch too.

Now that you’ve been reduced to a Jehovah’s Witness* for a television show, go proselytize.  Or you’ll go to hell or wherever it is Jehovah’s Witness go when they don’t promote good TV. 

*Change “Jehovah’s Witness” to “those two Mormon kids in short sleeves, tie and name tag who rides their bikes all over town”  if it’ll make you feel any better.**

**Vice versa if you are a Mormon.

Obama Requires First Ever A$$hole Tax

President Obama Orders Treasure Chief to Try to Block A.I.G. Bonuses

Rush Limbaugh is exempt from the first round.  For now.  Though if we did tax in direct proportion to body fat / asshole ratio, Limbaugh would have us in the financial black by now.

Horseface of the Apocalpse, Mrs Fred Phelps herself Ann Coulter would cause us to break even.

George W Bush is a clueless a$$hole and doesn”t count. No I mean he literally doesn’t know how to count.  His business ventures either needed to be bailed out by his father’s friends  or failed.  Like his presidency.  He’s found the only a$$hole tax loophole and is happily exempt.

Cheney’s a$$hole value will be held in reserve at an undisclosed location of our liking, not his.  If he’s such a great fucking patriot he’ll shut his mouth and finally be of some worth to our nation.  Rather than giving it away in contracts to his companies.  Fat bastard. 

Bill Bennett would gamble it away.  Though he’s smart enough to bet social conservatives will continue to believe he’ll do otherwise.  He’s still making money, isn’t he?

And for fairness sake – Chris Matthews.  God, Chris Matthews.



Lil’ Watchmen

Watchman the Videogame.  An 1980’s style arcade button masher a la Double Dragon.  The theme music is so catchy, repetitive and aggravating it could almost be a real 80s video game.

The Great American God Complex:Difficult Questions Answered

A cave like dwelling has been discovered in Jordan. Some are calling it the world’s oldest Christian church.  Saber tooth tiger skin muu-muus with blue tie were found on scene, poss an early version of the suit and tie uniform socially enforced on male church goers.  A prehistoric snuggie if you will. Evidence of Christianity’s cult-like origins and almost genetic linage to poor taste.

Yabba dabba doo! was probably a mistranslated phrase of praise.  “Yabba” meaning “Abba”, the Hebrew word for father. The use of Dabba doo!* is possibly the speaking in tongues.  Other resourses say it means I love you“.  Of course the point is moot.  The Flintstones, while a great show, was a knock off of the Honeymooners like Christianity is a knock off of Judaism.  And we all know Ralph Kramden worshiped the Spaghetti Monster.  Anyway.

Part of the reason for the Great American God Complex is to pose and answer difficult theological questions. This guy does better than that. He makes it up.  I really like this fella’s insight into the afterlife.

What Will Heaven Be Like?

Yes Kathy:

This will be your assignment in heaven, should you accept it.

You will be on the committee to recommend to God what new dimensions you want to see God create. In order to perform this job efficiently, you have to become an expert on the dimensions that already exist beyond the veil of this present earth dimension.

As a collateral duty, you will be in charge of the angels who constantly travel between earth and heaven carrying tears in bottles, which get deposited in the great depository in heaven known as the “Hall of Tears”. Every tear that a Christian has shed is stored there.

On your day off you go “creation gliding”. This is where you zoom at the speed of sound throughout all creation. What’s unique about this creation gliding is that as you ask questions in your mind about what you see –you instantly are told the answer via a special “back channel” link to God. Time is no barrier for a “creation glider”. You can stand with Jesus as He meets with Moses and Elijah, you can watch as the Red Sea gets parted, and marvel at all the demons who immediately just understood their predicament and doom as Jesus says; “It is finished”. Or, you can watch the small Spartan band hold off the Millions of Persians at Thermopylae in 480 BC. You will marvel at their skill, courage and patriotism. The next time you “creation glide” you may even visit George Washington and his troops as he slips out of Brooklyn and from a sure annihilation by the British under the cover of a miraculous fog. What you really want to see is if God “fixed it” for old George to insure Israel had a friend later on down the line.

Of course this leads to more questions…

1) Is there a water shortage in heaven that they have to save tears?

1a) If they have supernatural powers, can’t they just make more?

1b) What about all the tears God has caused lo these countless millennium? Even on a slow day they would have all the water they’d ever need.

2)If they can time travel and fly, why can’t they go faster than the speed of sound? Superman can do better than that and he’s not obnoxious about it.

What’s best (at least for the author/Time Glider) is that he/she got to visit some of histories greatest wars. Sparta, The American Revolution, Bush’s Iraq War.  Cause, you know, that’s what all good Christians should want once they reach the ultimate peace and harmony.

Visit bloodbaths.
