thers! don’t link to the fucker

Wow! I stepped on something very much like that graphic some years ago in a motel in Nashville. I felt like boiling my skin.

That Crittenden sure can write.

I find it funny that they can only insult but not support their argument.

Thersday! And I have finished my grading for the semester on top of it. And now we have an official FUCK thread! Life is good. Fuck fucking cretinous Crittenden and his fucking cretinous defense of torture, his fucking cretinous lame fucking conservative “humor”(sic), and every fucking one of his fucking cretinous gang of fucking amoral fucking ashats.

Once when my mom was talking to me on the phone a roach feel from her shoulder into her amble breasts. In a very steely voice she told me she had to hang up now.

Well, I still have grading, so you’re not allowed to say fuck, you fucker.

Yea! Fuck them sideways.

As pitiful as it is, I think that Crittenden is trying to be “clever.” Channeling the “thought” process:

FireDOGlake… Run by a woman… Hmmmmm… What do they call a female dog? OOOOOHH…. FireBITCHlake. Gawd, ain’t I a clever lad!

Don’t try this at home, kids. I have a Hazmat suit and decontamination chamber.

Once in graduate school I came home from Friday libations a bit well celebrated, turned on the lights and saw a cockroach 3 inches long on the wall next to the light switch. Grabbed something and smashed it, turned off the lights and went to bed, promising that if it wasn’t that big in the morning, I was swearing off alcohol for life. Fortunately it was and I am now enjoying a nice Chianti while reviling the fucking loathsome fucking Crittenden.

Eighty-six term papers and eighty essay exams in the past two weeks. Fourtunately I am an anthropologist and not an English professor, so I do not have to correct their fucking incoherent grammar.

Not worth the energy, really. Jules indulged himself in some pathetic attempt at humor even my grade-school son knows is grossly inappropriate.

He should be ignored as somebody else’s tired, spoiled and poorly mannered child, with the hopes that his parental figure role model will come along and put him in time out, far away from sharp objects and away from our earshot.

BTW: why is it these bratty ‘wingers sans ideas are always as unwholesome in appearance as they are in their words and deeds?

ay carumba

Glutton for punishment? Does anyone ever write anything that you find interesting?

Iknow, and I keep doing it to myself. Actually, I do sometimes get interesting papers. Had several good papers in my graduate seminar and some really good ones in my undergraduate classes. The papers were spread out over the graduate seminar and two upper division undergrad classes.

Local 6 News from Orlando reports that Phizer is giving away Viagra. If you’ve lost your job. You must fill out the forms. Isn’t that a free ad for Phizer pretending to be news?

it was on my local news too – if ya lost your job and were already on phizer meds for at least 3 months, they will maybe supply your meds for a year. the footage being shown was the little blue pill, with closeups of viagra, but they were talking about all phizer meds.

Another way for big pharma to tell the citizens to go fuck themselves.
Or is the softer, gentler big pharma?

Nice way to hawk the little blue for free. God knows the most important thing you have to worry about when you just lost your job is whether you can get it up.

Got no income?

Make a baby!

Makes sense to me. /s

WTF

Did you know that older women have more bladder infections cause their permanently randy husbands won’t leave them alone.

I think it goes with the new charm offensive they and the insurance industry are using on congress.

guess they figure since you are not going to work ya might as well….

That’s about right.

You can say it, Suz

’tis, after all, a “fuck” thread.

EEEEEEEEEKKKKKK!

smashsmashsmashsmashsmashsmash

Is it dead yet?

So let us laugh together!

Bwahahahahaha!!!

well, they could not say it on the local tv news

Yea! Fuck them sideways.

In deference to young Master Jules’ tender sensibilities:

Bleep them sideways with a rusty chainsaw,
Bleep them sideways with a rusty chainsaw,
Bleep them sideways with a rusty chainsaw,
Ear-lye in the mornin’!

OK, I’ve been bad. Off to the corner for me!

Good on you.

My connections with students were hiring recent grads to work as my research assistant for 2 years before they went back to school or to some other job. On Wall St. we had an embarrassment of riches; could cull from the best of the best schools. I can’t remember a single time when they contributed a creative thought to the process, while they were consummately competent at doing the work I needed. The worst ones were those who thought they knew it all and were above my work.

The Patriotic, church-going, god fearing, anti-gay marriage Republican newscasters were yucking it up like teenagers talking about the Viagra.

Viagra, tee hee! What a fucking-knee-slapping laugh riot!

Is Viagra officially classified as an upper?

Yes, but us “wet yet flaming deep woodsy” pups are not held back by such FCC mandated boundaries.

;~P

constrained only by thoughts of turgid throbbing fingers a hairs breath away from touching the hot wet pulsing button of moderation

Teaching at a third tier university in the state with the lowest state investment in higher education, I get more than my share of dullards and lackwits. Most papers are workmanlike, but show no spark or or real insight, so it is always delightful when I do get them. Have to say that the two undergrad classes where they did papers tend to draw some better quality than others. I think gender or race and ethnicity get people’s juices flowing.

LOL!

WTF? Colbert is doing fundraiser for some military purpose, something like schools for their kids? Isn’t the military budget big enough? Do U.S. citizens really need to give addition contribution to support military families? This is the WORST kind of charity, when real people are asked to support the war machine.

Well Jules seems to have a reading comprehension problem:

Meanwhile, FireDogBogg wants to know how come no one ever wants the flaming right to be centrist. Sounds like he’s so deep in the tank he can’t see the pond.More FDL mysticism in his title, “Also. I’ve also never been to me.” Huh? That lake’s too deep for me.)

The tbogg post he refers to:

I can’t seem to recall a time when the Village Idiots Wise Men’s Club required a Republican to have a Sister Souljah moment. It seems to be reserved for centrists who are supposed to avail themselves of the opportunity to move central-er by which the Villagers mean “to the right”

And what the heck is a sheila? According to Jules it’s okay to say bitch but not fuck, okay to write a lame post that’s clearly an excuse for posting a hot nudie picture, and oh what else. . .

Actually, if he wants to come up here in August, I can perhaps introduce him personally to “flaming deep woodsy”. Put his useless ass to work on a fire line deep in the back country.

‘evening, all-
I should consider myself lucky that I have never heard of this Crittenden asshole before. He sounds like, as my daughter would say, a real “douchenozzle”

Unless the user expires during the act, in which case it is a downer. Particularly for the individual who may or may not be trapped under him.

I was happy with workmanlike. It was the best I ever got. My impression was that Ivy Leaguers thought that work was required, which is why they were workemanlike, but basically beneath them.

Of course, they didn’t realize that my work required rubbing a couple of brain cells together, whereas if they had been hired in the far more prestigious investment banking departments, they would have been spending their time putting presentation books together.

And what the heck is a sheila?

Aussie slang for a woman. Similar to American “chick”.

Thers inspires so much consternation amongst the wingnuts, he must be doing something Right.

I need a cigarette. I’ll be right back.

;~P

Your daughter hs a way with words and he is indeed that. The crew over at Sadly, No! have a bit of a cottage industry in deconstructing and ridiculing him.

Yep, after a certain age, females never assume the top position. I held a mirror under my face and was shocked at the sagging skin. Vowed never again.

Oh. That guy is such a misogynist.

Hi ecahn. *wave* I got to log off.

Interesting observation and matches one of my own. When I was in Chicago, a friend who teaches at the University of Chicago showed me some of his term papers. They were really well written (much better than any but the best I ever see), but showed no greater depth of analysis or insight than what I was used to teaching at small, not very selective colleges.

*waving back* gnite mui1.

That is the least of his manifold problems.

Like saggy man-boobs (etc) are better. Best not to over-think those things. Keep your eyes closed if it helps. Trust me, guys don’t care…

Short visit tonight. Gotta replace a sump pump before the next storm system comes through tomorrow. Splendid evening to all.

Night. Keep your powder dry!

Turning out the lights helps as well.

Soft landings to you, ratfood!

waving g’nite to the leaving sleepy pups

Thers,
don’t think I’ve ever noticed this pathetic geezer (Crittendome) before. probably because he sucks his own wanker and I generally avert my eyes from that.
read this about it:
“Jules Crittenden is a Boston Herald city editor and foreign policy columnist. He was raised mainly in Southeast Asia in an expatriate Australian engineer’s family and has reported on crime, science, politics, military affairs and other matters in the United States, Asia, the Balkans and the Middle East – most recently in Iraq, where he was embedded with a tank company during the 2003 invasion. He writes: ‘I had reported from conflict zones and had mild under-fire experiences before Iraq, but Iraq was more intense than those.”

Oh my, he watched OTHER PEOPLE fight a war and got twisted by the experience. Poor sad little fucker.

Here’s my worst experience. My total sample is smaller than your one-year one, approximately 100 interviewees over my career, probably less. On one occassion, an economics major from my alma mater, Wellesley, was the top candidate. The last hurdle was a writing sample. Such a freebee, as they could choose from all the papers during 4 years of college. She submitted 2 economics papers from Wellesley which received As, which were incomprehensible. I hired someone else, wrote a letter to my alma mater explaining that not only were the institutionally-graded A-rated papers seriously subpar, she couldn’t even write in simple declarative grammatical sentences. The answering letter was that Wellesley had very high standards and I must be mistaken.

ratfood – I gotcher back on that one.

Think I will head out as well. Going fishing in the morning!

I spent many years (1995 – 2006) on AOL, in the “From the Left” chatroom. I got used to being called a bitch. I would make the wingnuts’ heads explode when I said, “I AM a bitch. Is that supposed to hurt my feelings?” They simply could not believe a woman would WANT to be called a bitch. Tiny minds.

Sorry all, was distracted by a Toddler Uprising. Still beating out some lingering pockets of resistance and conducting mopping-up operations. Developing…

Go fishing for some of my grading, buster. Phooey.

’night. Dr. Dick! Don’t forget one for the eagle.

thers writes/oops, quotes–Then there’s that mysterious, wet yet flaming deep woodsy ”FireDogLake.”

it appears as a jealous description of one who hasn’t visited a place.
never been here, or he would know it’s not the deep woodsy, it’s the healing waters of the lake. guess he’s not ‘into’ water.

bet he also doesn’t get the lyric–it’s not the meat it’s the motion…heh..maybe that’s the problem…

gotta go–one of these-
http://www.hiltonpond.org/thisweek020801.html

just landed on the screen….never seen the underside of one before…gotta get pics, load them, then bed.

i took a couple pix of some neighborhood eagles today

Why did you want to be called a bitch? As a woman, I can’t imagine an upside.

it is a way of taking an offensive term and owning it, making it something to be proud of.

i used to say that i was a bitch with a badge, used to joke that bitch was my middle name, etc.

I believe Dr. Dick has a local eagle that has tried to help himself to Dr. Dick’s fish on occasion.

Fuck the link, fuck the fucker . . oh wait, this isn’t a fuck thread? Damn . . . oh well, fuck it.

*wavestosuz*

One of my profs had taught at Harvard, and moved to Canada during the Vietnam war. I asked him about it. His comment “the smart people are as smart, and strangely the dumb people are as dumb, there were just more smart people and less dumb people at Harvard.”

*waving back*

OK, I’m for bed, been a hell of a night.

Night mes amis.

g’nite thers

Maybe, and thanks for the perspective. But even with your explanation, I still can’t imagine there’s an upside.

I have a female friend who’s still trying to get a Wall St. job. She’s quant enabled and any financial institution who paid attention to her in the last couple of years would have come out smelling like roses. She cannot get a job. She has fallen back on the submissive female demeanor. I can’t imagine there’s an upside in what she is doing either.

Perhaps I slipped thru with an intermediate demeanor. It’s hard to figure out.

You don’t grade down the fuckers on spelling?
Why do you hate america?
I got dinged on every typo and spelling with typewriters.
And later, computers made me lose grade counts, too.

Course, that was in the mid 80’s, to early 90’s.

And I’d never seen nor used a computer (other than film and sound editing) pre ‘88.

Still got an old Royal in a closet . . . damned IBM Selectrics took me FOREVER to get used to.

News. All CAPS. Still, I was better n two fingered hunt n pecker Herb Caen . . . course, I couldn’t write like him. *G*

Damn, I used to use a Royal, for news production w/ NPR, in a jr. college station in the Bay Area. I forget these things anymore . . . my dad’s Royal, actually. That machine and me had some good times . . . *G*

Me? Digress? *blink*

I actually used to believe that, but no longer do. Whole host of reasons why Ivies select that have nothing to do with ability to positively influence the future of humankind.

when some asshole would call me a bitch, i would respond back that a phrase that took away his insult and let him know that i had power in the situation.

There’s Viagra, In The Water
*G*

Hi everyone, I’m almost back to normal. Started typing today and it looks like you can’t get rid of me

yay katymine!

Dang Mary, what’s the science behind that? *shock*

I will never forget how outraged I was when someone first explained to me the concept of “legacy admissions”, especially when I then noticed that most of the beneficiaries seemed to scream long and loud about the evils of affirmative action.

A lil stabby, doncha think? *blink*

Did you really have power? Politely asked. I had a deal of professional competence and record, yet the quality of my work turned out to be irrelevant. But I did not carry a legally-sanctioned firearm. Is that the difference between your experience and mine?

Hi katymine! {{{{hugs}}}}

Whew!!!! (((katymine)))

i have found that it was usually to my benefit in a situation where some man was being demeaning to me with insulting terms to have that man know that game wasn’t going to play with me.

Robbie Fulks, At His Best. WTF.

Add me to your outrage. I was admitted because I was a workaholic (no longer), and Ivies spot poor workaholics like bees to the honey.

Damn, that’s hot, Suz . . . you give good blog. *G*

yep, it’s a luna. wow
play this then click on my name for the pic. still uploading it..

Interesting. I was never in shoes anywhere near like yours. In fact, every misogynist experience I ever had was so ephemeral that it could never be documented. No one ever ever made inappropriate remarks in my hearing, but for one minor occassion. Which I did not acknowledge.

Yet, I know the anti-woman thing existed. When I was lobbying for promotion to my retiring boss’s position, I perused the docs in his office every night. He never expressed overt discrimination, and I, as an internal competitor, kept increasing my position relative to external possibilities, yet never enough to get the job.

The male who was hired instead of me was subsequently fired in about 2 years. What can I say?

His fahthah clearly imposed rôles at too young an age. He’s been overcompensating ever since.

hey alank – haven’t seen ya in a while – how ya been

‘night, all. The best of all possible tomorrows to you all.

g’nite rond

RonD,
And the best to you friend!

late late nite upstairs

Katymine is mending?

Big hearts out to her and hers . . . .

I’m outta here . . . fun thread.

Keep ‘em honest, Suz! *G*

A lot of my work involves hanging around factory floors and talking to production workers and trades people.

As a short, round woman in advanced middle age, I do get interesting responses at times. I’m finding that the older the workforce, the harder I have to work to get their cooperation and involvement with whatever the project is.

I just love that moment though when I ask the question or make the observation that shows that I DO know a few things.

I obviously type too fucking slow.

(((katymine)))!!!

Had to delurk to welcome you. I was offline a lot in the past month, and when I was able to cruise by, you weren’t “around,” but there was mention that you weren’t well enough to post. I feared the worst.
So glad you’re feeling better.
