How stupid urban legends get spread. I have an alternative way an urban legend can get spread. People with preexisting biases see a phenomena and then make up an explanation- this explanation is then spread to whole population. For example, a racist white person sees a black person at college. There are many possible explanations for this- the black person had adequate grades, good SAT scores, good extracurriculars... but the white person instead cobbles together a story involving shadowy racial preferences, suffering white men, and general evil. He tells anyone who will listen, and of course, people believe him, because everyone knows that black people can't get into college!

I watched crazy guy Grover Norquist on Colbert, and I'm really confused by this. I think we're yelling across a huge divide here. I don't think lower taxes are inherently good. Hear me out here- let's say we all got taxed only $50 a year, sounds good,eh? But people get laid off, the roads get spotty, our policemen take bribes as they aren't being paid, and that's just the first things I can think of that would happen. Why do I have such a negative view? Haven't I just been brainwashed by the government? Won't private charity raise the millions needed for bridge repair? 80% of food pantries can't meet the needs. And this is with food stamps reducing demand somewhat and government help. I don't think any food pantries, who provide a very basic need, would be able to help at all.
Heard on Keith Olbermann. In MS, negative ads about OMG, MISSISSIPPI VALUES!!! OMG OBAMA!!! failed! Yay! After having to see those stupid ads on TV and on the radio, I'm glad to see they failed. [we have a shared media market, so we get hilarity every time!]
Oooh, from stupid free, we've got good girl gamer stupid Really guys, what girl gamers want is...TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES. We're big girls. We can get laid if we want. We're not spending hours cursing because we got hit by that damn blue shell or trying to kill zombie after fucking zombie to try to get the dick of some substandard guy who doesn't wash his balls and whose idea of a pickup line is tits or gtfo,ok?
4000th post! It's to bring you this stupidfree link- doctors are doctors for a reason.
Found on etsy: news article about racism against Obama. I'm not surprised by the racism, but I'm glad to see everyone working so hard to rise above the shameful attitudes of others. Let's change this country! Yes, we can!
LOLZ, OMG, MUSLOOOMS, AND ATHETISTS! humor from the farking article
Another omg girl gamers article on digg. the usual suspects are all out- the I PLAY GTA4 AND I'M A GIRL, I'M SO AWESOME gamer, the well, they must be fat guy[because it really matters!], the my g/f beats me at Halo! guy and the my g/f won't play any games guy, etc. Those character types are annoying. Of course I'd like to note my thoughts that games are games. We don't need to keep defining games in narrower and narower circles, unless we want to end up with Mario Kart not being a game because women and kids like it. Man, when Zelda and Final Fantasy get defined out as not hardcore enough, I am so done! I'm loving FF12, but I'll never give up my Diner Dash!

I've got a new obsession! I saw some interesting stories: immigrants dying for lack of care. Imprisoned moms keep babies. Yes, I'm obsessed with information, the hottest, newest and freshest. I haven't been blogging much because my obsessions weren't very bloggable these days
On Sunday, I was on Beale Street and I was being protested. A parade of hilarity came by- signs like Hilliary should be at home washing the dishes and a vote for Mitt Romney is a vote for the devil. The signs urged us to repent our sins[maybe something about drinking alcohol on a Sunday] and urged the return of Prohibition. They had a small child get on a loud speaker and urge us to repent. They also handed out funny Chick tracts about how we're all going to die horrible deaths and go to hell or something. I guess a good time was had by all.
