Must be confusing for kids playing cowboys and Indians these days because how are call-center workers supposed to take on cowboys?

So when does my insurance rate go down the promised 3000%? I hope it’s before the end of the month.

There is no excuse to not be civil unless you’re really really really sure you’re right and the other side is wrong.

People are worried about jobs and terrorism, so Obama goes after health care and our nuclear stockpile. Not sure we’re on same page.

So what’s the absolute best outcome we hope for from just letting North Korea be?

I think my greatest fear for our new child is that he will have a Bostonian accent.

Justin Bieber is so dreamy. Like how he has a fish head; that’s something straight out of a nonsensical dream.

David Frum is the thinking man’s Meghan McCain. By “thinking man” I mean “nominally sentient.”

Is it weird I refer to 256 as a “nice round number”?

The transition to computing would have been easier if we had one less finger on each hand.

24 is canceled. We’ve even given up the war on fictional terrorists.

The series debuted right after 9/11, showing us how much more effective terrorists would be if they were secretly backed by rich white people.

I hope this government being able to force us to buy stuff isn’t going to escalate. Corporate interests are going to love that one. “Buy Coca Cola: It’s the law!”

What’s with military ranks and them being pronounced nothing like they’re spelled? Colonel is “kernel” and in UK lieutenant is “leftenant”.

  1. So what’s the absolute best outcome we hope for from just letting North Korea be?

    When their nukes land in South Korea in Japan, they don’t explode, but scream DONG DONG DONG DONG.

    24 is canceled. We’ve even given up the war on fictional terrorists.

    Where will I feed my addiction for subplots?

  2. Is it weird I refer to 256 as a “nice round number”?

    Absolutely not. 2^8 is just so nice and factorable. I mean, it’s divisible by 2, 4, 8, 16, 32…

    It would be weird if you thought 243 was a “nice round number” like I occasionally do.

  3. So what’s the absolute best outcome we hope for from just letting North Korea be?…….Left to their own devices they just may perfect an ICBM capable of striking San Francisco. I’m tired of waiting for the promised earthquake.

  4. “There is no excuse to not be civil unless you’re really really really sure you’re right and the other side is wrong.”

    The left has never been civil…this despite their being so incredibly wrong. So, since we’re AGAIN being proven right, it’s time we adapt the John Wayne strategy, and get back to punchin’ idiots that need punchin’.

  5. Must be confusing for kids playing cowboys and Indians these days because how are call-center workers supposed to take on cowboys?

    No, just give you a slurpee.

    The series debuted right after 9/11, showing us how much more effective terrorists would be if they were secretly backed by rich white people.

    I guess George Soros convinced Fox to quit outing him.

  6. What’s with military ranks and them being pronounced nothing like they’re spelled? Colonel is “kernel” and in UK lieutenant is “leftenant”.

    “Sergeant” is pronounced sarjant instead of serge-ent. It is also shortened to “sarge” instead of “serge,” although calling “sergeants” “serge” would be funny, but not if I was the guy who did it.

    Also, iin English, “general” means non-exceptional, while in military the word means high commander guy.

    People are worried about jobs and terrorism, so Obama goes after health care and our nuclear stockpile. Not sure we’re on same page.

    Same page, book, universe? The only thing that matters in Obama-world is the institution of permanent change. To misquote the Bible, he knows that we’ll always have the unemployed, but we’ll only have the Obama for four years.

    Justin Bieber is so dreamy. Like how he has a fish head; that’s something straight out of a nonsensical dream.

    I actually googled up a picture of him. You owe me lunch.

  8. I’ve always thought of ‘0’ to be a nice round number, but then 0-bah-muhh stole the niceness from it.
    “Buy Coca-Cola! It’s the law!” Darn, Frank, why do you keep giving them ideas?
    The name of the very first Colonel was Jimmy Crackcorn. But you don’t care.

    At least we can pretend that Chloe O’Brian would’ve gotten killed in the most brutal fashion.

    Is it weird I refer to 256 as a “nice round number”?

    I also think of 255 as a nice, round number when dealing with arrays.

  11. “What’s with military ranks and them being pronounced nothing like they’re spelled? Colonel is “kernel” and in UK lieutenant is “leftenant”.”

    I think that has something to do with Nordic runes. I may be wrong, but damn if any bastard can do that with conviction.
