Quote for the Day (Internet Critique Division)

"'Look at this beautiful kitten.' 'Fuck you, that kitten's a socialist.' 'You're a fag.' Basically, that's the crux of all Internet discussion." - Jeff Tweedy

Sam Seder does it against:

So true! The so-called Libertarians (actually oligarchs in sheep's clothing) rail against government interference, when it is the government that has given this country it's (now crumbling, second-to-third rate) infrastructure. "Born on third base" is right!

Walk like an Egyptian

Here's wishing the rebellion in Egypt well. Remember, America, Joe Lieberman wants a "kill switch" on our internet access, too. The bastard.

Always ahead of the curve!

(Via Ebert) This was in

1994! I got my first computer two years later. It's pathetic the lack of awareness these paragons of the media show.

The Wing Nut World has Gone In-Fucking-Sane

(Via HuffPo)

Happy Veterans Day, to one and all, but especially to the folks over at Google, who thought they'd commemorate the occasion by altering their logo to suit the occasion, only to be reminded that the world is full of people who are crazy and freaked-out on a 24-hour basis about Sharia law!

Google's design today uses the staff of a waving American flag as the "L" in its name, which means Old Glory itself obstructs the "E" in it's name, leaving most of the letter obscured, save for the OMGZ ISLAM CREEPING CALIPHATE TAKEOVER CRESCENT, obviously.

Every time I think the wing nuts are as batshit crazy as they are going to get, they prove me wrong. Hey, what about this example of the creeping Muslim influence?:

Scary, huh? Also just as full of shit as the Google logo theory.

D. C. Douglas does it again:

Voice over guy D. C. Douglas lays it out again; this time giving some tips on how to be a real asshole in your internet comments.

(Via D. C.'s blog)It ain’t pretty! Yes, life in the material plane can clog up your “soul tube” after awhile. Most of us will clean it out privately, with a good book, meditation, maybe even a vacation to the tropics.

Unfortunately, this new-fangled invention called the Internet (a series of tubes, I’m told) is changing this ritual. Now, people can log into any chat room, message board or blog and just simply blow out their tube’s gunk onto the pixel page.

I know, I know, this is nothing new. But since posting our Tea Party PSA on YouTube last month, I received a more intimate tour of the internet’s societal gunk-fest. It was 30 days of getting to know my fellow human being… and I have to admit that there’s at least 15% whose words left an oily sheen on my eyes.

The depth of ugliness and assumptions was so staggering, that I had to make a video about it! So, without further blogging what can be seen on video, here is our latest contribution to the YouTube world (rated PG-13)… Enjoy (and pass it on!):
