In which I gross myself out.

New Gaybortion!: There's porn of everything.

Before you lose all respect for me, read this.

And because I can, the Ted Nugent Quote of the Day:

How, ask ye, does an old fart like that historical goofball Nuge have so much dangtootin' fun and be in total control of his adventurous life? Memorize this, kids—write it down, and spread it as far and wide as you possibly can. Ready? I CELEBRATE EACH AND EVERY DAY OF MY JOYOUS LIFE WITH SUCH INTENSITY BECAUSE I AM FIFTY-TWO YEARS CLEAN AND SOBER!

Got that? The old boy is absolutely on fire! No drugs, no alcohol*, no tobacco, no poison, no BS! No idiots getting me to buy into any numbnut peer pressure—NO WAY! Peer pressure is for stupid sheep. And ya know what sheep do don't ya? They mindlessly wander around like lost jerks and stick their sheepy nose up some other sheep's butt and follow them around with no direction of their own. In other words, they got no life. They got no spirit. They got no attitude. They got no nothin'. How worthless can a life be? Peer pressure can kiss my ass.

I know, I know. It's not as good as yesterday's. But it does highlight something I haven't ranted about in awhile, which is that I really hate Fun Conservatives. You know, those guys who like to go on about how they like rock n' roll and talk a lot about non-conformity and being a rebel? Hey, sorry. If you're going to be a conservative, accept with grace the inherent un-hipness of your political position and have the decency to be a curmudgeonly stick-in-the-mud. Face it—there's nothing cool about imperialist war games, trickle-down economies, or totalitarian control of other people's bodies and sex lives. Cool people only torture other consenting adults. Stop trying to be Wild and Crazy Fun Dad. You're embarrassing yourself.

One of the best things I've read in a while. You win. I think it deserves a metquote.

Oh man, do you remember that This Modern World that had the libertarian guy on the motorcycle, and Tom Tomorrow talking about how conservatives were hip rebels and iconoclasts on largely liberal campuses? I'm looking for it, but I can't find it.

that goddamned top 100 list made me twitch. ugh! aside from the obvious fact that they you want people to stop fucking, marry people they hate, raise children they don't want, bust their asses working their whole lives to get nowhere, die in wars, and wither away as the sun is choked out by limitless amounts of greenhouse gasses, these are the very same people who see no merit whatsoever to publicly funded art or music education (or, really, any education at all that isn't vomited directly from the bible). have fun with your rock and roll while you can, fundies! if you get your way, nobody will know how to read a times signature in a few years and won't that rain on your rebel parade then?!

Someone should point out to Ted that by owning all those guns, he's keeping them out of the hands of other red-blooded 'merkins.

Um. Aren't an awful lot of those songs an ironic ode to conservatism and the Republican Party?

I'm sure the sense of humor in the average National review columnist is at best vestigial, but come on.

Ugh, fun conservatives. Rock 'n' roll is probably the most conservative musical genre there is and yet conservatives have to play up the rebellion factor to make it seem like there's something daring and edgy about liking it. Not to mention the fact that Miller either misses the point of, or reads way too much into, at least half the songs.
