Ashley Madison again sets the bar for online dating
By J. DeVoy I’ve discussed Ashley Madison on two prior occasions. By all appearances, it’s a a dating service people actually use, and it has money to throw around. For the uninitiated, Ashley Madison is a paid dating website that pairs married men with married women, so that they may cheat on their respective spouses with one another under the
Occupy Wall Street Has Something for Everyone
Politics, economic debate, and now hot chicks. And incredible bad asses: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=P7LGatIq70c#!] And even judges with some balls (ok, this was in Nashville) [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=j07CprU3rlk#!]
Vaginal Obsession – TSA, you're doing it wrong
If you had to create a chart of the things I like and the things I don’t like, vaginas and the TSA would clearly be at opposite ends. The vagina is truly a wonderful thing, when properly cared for. Your mileage may vary depending on diet, grooming, genetics, and a host of other factors. But, in general, vaginas are a
Getting Sued for Being Mean
Unlike Lance Armstrong, Michael O’Connell also has a neck scar. (source) His coworkers decided it would be jolly good fun to call him “uni-ball” and “cut-throat”. Apparently, Mr. O’Connell had a problem with that. He already had some form of anxiety disorder, so he claimed he was being harassed and somehow that implicated his disability. He was subsequently canned. Forgetting
Fisker Cars to be built in Finland, after taking a $529 million U.S. government backed loan
And the imbeciles are not happy. Fisker says that he could not find a plant in the U.S. to assemble his new flagship vehicle, so he went to Finland to build the car — creating 500 jobs in Finland. (source) Fisker says that once the $97,000 Fisker Karma takes hold, it will help move his plan for a lower cost
Defense attorneys hit Righthaven lawyer with sanctions motion
Vegas Inc details Randazza Legal Group’s latest attempt to seek sanctions against Righthaven after judges found it lacked standing in several copyright infringement cases. Vegas Inc reports: As Randazza Legal Group awaits word on the Hoehn fees or bond and prepares for another likely showdown over fees in its Righthaven cases in Colorado, the firm asked Jones on Tuesday to
Yay Democracy!!! Oh, um… oh… err…
Oh, um… oh shit… not THAT kind of Democracy… Tunisians revolt to throw off a repressive regime, and vote in an Islamist regime.
Sometimes the Internets are really mean…
And sometimes, they are a wellspring of awesome sweetness. See this reddit thread. Jesus fuck. I really did not want my faith in humanity restored today. Tough shit for me, I guess. H/T: Ken @ Popehat
Happy Halloweenie!
Up next from the “Chrissakes will you lighten up” department: It takes a special group of people to try to ruin Halloween. A handful of college students in Ohio (who have likely never had sex with a partner) are protesting certain Halloween costumes. Source. Their “I’m a culture, not a costume” ad campaign has a sufficiently forlorn looking collection of
Amazing Hooker Shape Shifts Into a Donkey!
We’ve all woken up in the morning with someone and thought “jesus, she looked a lot better in the dim lights and through the beer goggles.” The usual result? An uncomfortable bit of silence, an “I’ll call you later,” which never happens, and your buddies make fun of you a bit the next day. Therefore, we can all identify with
Nazi-named Kids Taken From Parents
Heath and Deborah Campbell named their kids Adolf Hitler Campbell, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation, Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie. They drew national attention when they asked a New Jersey ShopRite to prepare a swastika birthday cake. This, naturally, prompted the state to consider whether the Campbells were fit parents. An appeals court today held that they should not regain custody of their children.
The First Amendment is for Christians Only
Oh Flori-duh, you never fail to amuse. Clay County Pastor, Ron Baker of Russell Baptist Church in Green Cover Springs, FL holds weekly prayer sessions near the Clay Hill Elementary school’s flagpole. To make sure that everyone knows about it, the school principal, LArry Davis put out a newsletter supporting the prayer meetings. (source) That’s a no-brainer violation of the
PETA must be trolling us
Now I am convinced that PETA must be the most well-organized practical joke in the world. They are suing Sea World for violating the 13th Amendment. The theory? Keeping killer whales in captivity is slavery. (source) If this files, I’m bringing a THIRD Amendment complaint against the U.S. Government. After all, they quarter troops in the homes of squirrels, bears,
Cum dilectione hominum et odio vitiorum
By Jay Wolman As the newest Satyriconista, with a practice of civil litigation and employment law in Boston, I thought I’d begin my first post with something high-brow. Everything sounds better in Latin. This was St. Augustine’s way of saying “Hate the player, not the game”. Fast forward 1500 years and the message remains relevant. David Madden, the now former
Marco Rubio, the Birthers, Batista, Castro, and a little Cuban History
At least we now know that the “birthers” are non-partisan. They are descending upon Marco Rubio. (source) Of course, the birthers are as stupid as ever. Rubio was clearly born in Flori-duh, and we still have “birthright citizenship.” End of that story. On the other hand, it seems that Marco Rubio has been a little less than forthcoming about when

The Aroma of Tacoma Smells Like a Can of STFU.
Back in 2009, Washington State Governor Christine Gregiore signed SB 5688, the so-called “Everything But Marriage” act. Source. Shortly thereafter, a group of concerned citizens calling themselves Protect Marriage Washington got enough signatures to place a referendum challenging the bill. Protecting marriage from what, exactly, remains a mystery but Imma call them “The Protectors” anyway. No word on if they
Weddings and pole dancing don't really mix
Well, there’s nothing wrong per se with pole dancing at a wedding. But, this is definitely an example of doing it wrong. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=SkKaMk7s1rA] H/T: Dan
