Ladies and gentleman, I present to you the Wunder Boner. (Despite the name, this is completely safe for wherever.) This is a ranking of every single Beatles song. Why the fuck are “Good Day Sunshine” and “Yer Blues” at the bottom of the list? That was 100% inappropriate. Best CNN shirt ever. Zombies ahead. Finally, [...]

As a general rule, I do not think highly of presidents. For the most part, I believe that the best they can hope for is to undue the damage wrought by their predecessors, and they usually don’t even manage that. However, most aren’t total disasters either. In fact, in the last half of the twentieth [...]
The smallest things can also be the most amazing. (Link via the Agitator.) The mayor of Portland had a gay affair with an eighteen year old boy named Beau Breedlove? Beau Breedlove? Are you fucking kidding me!? If your last name is Breedlove, and you name your son Beau, shouldn’t you just expect for his [...]
….same as the old boss. Yes, this is a belated inauguration post. I hope to have more thoughts on the passing of the Bush Era in the next couple of days, but for now you’ll have to settle for some regurgitations from elsewhere. First, if you don’t believe that bit about Obama being, in the [...]

I’ve long maintained that you can tell if a country is a relatively good one by whether it worries about too many people coming in or too many people going out. For the last fifty years, Cuba has been firmly in the latter camp. Still, a number of their much touted baseball players have managed [...]
Yeah, so it’s not Friday. Stop your complaining and just enjoy the links. Everyone loves sport blunders. Louis C.K. is a comic genius. (Be forewarned that this standup is incredibly offensive even by Louis C.K.’s standards.) Most incredible Price is Right win ever. Your sadness sustains me.
On New Year’s Day, a Bay Area Rapid Transit police officer killed Oscar Grant by shooting him in the back. You can see two videos of the incident in this local news report, and unless there is some incredibly dramatic context lacking in it, this was pretty clearly murder. The good news is that the [...]
Branford Marsalis tells it like it is. (Via Liberty and Power.) The latest weapon in the War on Terror: Viagra. (Via Hit and Run.) Craigslist has a variety of great, legitimate uses, but I mainly use it to find things like this. I’m over a week late on this, but it’s still hilarious: Santa needs [...]
