YES WE DID!!

Barack Obama!
BARACK OBAMA!
AMERICA!
Barack Obama just gave the most awe-inspiring, jaw-dropping, intellectually honest, honest, beautiful speech I’ve ever heard in my life.  His face, his eyes, his voice: a serrated poem of a man.
Yes we can.
Yes we did.
Yes we will.
[Travis Edit]
Here’s the footage of Obama’s Victory Speech. It’s unbelievable.

Here’s ABCNews footage of the rally at [...]

I’m Glad I Have A Bike

Today, WMATA introduced an exciting new policy: Random Bag Searches!
This makes me uncomfortable, it makes the City Paper’s Eric Wemple uncomfortable, too:
Instanalysis on the bag searches: You might be thinking, hey, these are going to be random searches and won’t likely affect me. But the point is that if they’re to have any terrorism-deterring value, [...]

William F Buckley Is An Asshole

Remember when that asshole William F Buckley Died?
Remember when Noam Chomsky killed the very same Wylie Frank Buckleyston back in 1968?
Well, Bill Fucking Bucklefuck pulled a fast one from beyond the crypt. Bucklefuck’s will says:
“I intentionally make no provision herein for said Jonathan, who for all purposes … shall be deemed to have predeceased me.”

PETA sent a letter to Ben & Jerry’s yesterday.  From the letter:
On behalf of PETA and our more than 2 million members and supporters, I’d like to bring your attention to an innovative new idea from Switzerland that would bring a unique twist to Ben and Jerry’s. Storchen restaurant is set to unveil a menu [...]
