… I’m *so* getting my kids a Playmobil Security Checkpoint set. If only to reward all the wonderful commenters over at Amazon.com — such a great outlet for choice snark at the expense of ludicrous products and brands. But I do agree with most of the disappointed parents: the set is far from complete. Where…

What a cringefest. Senator Tom Harkin (D-Clueless) trots out his take on why marijuana should remain illegal. It’s just pathetic. He’s either a) willfully ignorant, or b) stubbornly pushing a failed policy just for the hell of it. Either way, he’s a disgrace as a supposed liberal, and his logic is is so failed it’s…
Oh, good stuff. Apropos of nothing, this is by far the best light switch design ever. Cheezy, disturbing, becoming and practical. The perfect gift for the Catholic priest who has everything.

Random whacked out people are throwing children off bridges in Alabama and Hawaii, and dragging them out into traffic in Massachussets. WTF? Stop it, already, okay? You don’t touch kids. Period. They haven’t done anything, and…
This was a couple of weeks ago in central Vermont; then it all went away with a freak January thaw, but hopefully it’ll come back again…
I know, I know. Culturally insensitive and all that, but damn, I haven’t laughed so hard in so long. Thx to the whacky crowd at frostfirezoo for this gem.
On the one hand there’s Britney Spears, for whom the ability to get out of bed in the morning and *not* lose custody over her two children thru her own blundering stupidity is a work-in-progress, and then there are women like Ramirez Perez. Damn. Let’s just say, that if ours was a genuinely fair and…
