Davis_Square meet-up poll

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

Our next davis_square meet-up is at the Burren next Wednesday, June 25th at 7pm in the "back room".

If you know about the buttons, you can have one. If you don't know what I'm talking about, never mind. ;)

Instead of having a "maybe" category, I'm just going to have this one a yes/no. If you are unsure yet, please vote when you think you are sure as that will make it easier to actually try to figure out how many people are there.

Remember, this is a special trivia night/ meet-up event. The Burren has trivia now on Wednesdays starting at 8pm, but next week they are going to delay trivia till 9pm because they like us. So we will have two hours to drink and be merry and then we can form teams and play trivia.

As usual, they will provide free goodies for us and I'll bring name tags.

P.S., Its also 3 days before my birthday. I'd like a rolex or a new car.

I mix it up sometimes and toss in Michelle Malkin.

[mperrotti76.livejournal.com]

Michelle Malkin. I'd hit it.

With a bus.

Check out this very fair comparison (http://www.grouchyoldcripple.com/archives/002188.html).

You might as well title that "Brains vs. Breasts".

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

Breasts win every time.

[thetathx1138.livejournal.com]

For fap, yes. For running the country? Not so much.

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

You are such a male chauvinist. Beautiful girls can be smart as well.

[thetathx1138.livejournal.com]

Sure. Just not that collection of beautiful girls.

Or Ann Coulter, who is neither.

Swift-Boating into Gender Gap

This comparative chart is a fabulous illustration of the ability of GOPpers (or any dedicated ideologues, I suppose) to live in their own special faith-based reality, free of the trappings of fact.

Each specific example (except Hillary, who deserves better) is true -- and they add up to a huge misrepresentation of the real world.

There are more heart-stopping babes of all genders, ages, preferences and ethnicities in one "Yes We Can" Obama video

than in either list at "grouchy old cripple."

I see your Bo Derek and raise you Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba.

I see your Michelle Malkin and raise you Samantha Power, Rachel Maddow, and Michelle "Glamorama" Obama her own bad self.

But let's not let politics, sexual or otherwise, undermine this group's burgeoning community spirit -- or our ongoing commitment to alcohol-fueled mutual appreciation marathons.

I just thought it was funny. :)

Re: Swift-Boating into Gender Gap

[tomchampion.livejournal.com]

The concept IS funny. ;)

Ann Coulter? Not so much.

Ann Coulter is the right wing Janeane Garafalo. She says things so over the top exactly because it pisses off people. Its her schtick and it has made her a very rich woman.

Re: Swift-Boating into Gender Gap

[tomchampion.livejournal.com]

Can you find me a single quote from Janeane Garofolo that is as nasty, dismissive, hateful and vicious as Coulter's schtick?

This is NOT a rhetorical question. I am prepared to cede the point, but Coulter seems to me to be in a category all her own.

Just a quick web search found this (http://www.boston.com/news/globe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2003/12/28/hate_speech_of_the_left/). She is fond of invoking Godwin's law for Republicans.

Ew, Rachel Maddow???

Re: Swift-Boating into Gender Gap

[tomchampion.livejournal.com]

Yup. A style all her own (no lipstick lesbian, she), but I'm not alone (except perhaps among straight men)in appreciating her appeal.
