Stinkfoot

I dedicate this video:



To my new Merrell Trail Glove shoes.

I've never had issues with smelly feet before, but dear FSM these shoes make my feet stink. It's fucking awful.

Great shoes other than that though, if you're into this whole minimalist shoe thing that's all the rage.

Morose Monday

I've decided that today is a downer and needs some downer tunes to carry it further into the deep dark depths. Maybe then the day will have nowhere to go but up.

Here are some morose songs:

Great tune, good groove, but the lyrics are dark:


This used to make me cry when I was a little kid:


Can't leave out one of those scary Muslims:


You're welcome.

Yay, more war!1!!eleven

I'm happy* to see that our glorious leaders are boldly continuing with their quest to be at war with everyone, all the time. This delightful new conflict against the militants rising up against their authoritarian ruler will, no doubt, encourage the militants in other countries we're supporting against their authoritarian rulers. It all makes perfect sense if you don't think about it too hard.

*Not really.

I know this shit is complicated -- the "rebels" in Yemen are supposedly backed/infiltrated by Al Qaeda, so we don't want them to just take over the country. That makes sense. But seriously, can we please stop pretending that "all war, all the time" is completely free of consequences, both fiscal and social/political? There are lots and lots of bad people on the planet. We simply can't bomb all of them, as much as that would give John McCain a stiffy. I think our country is already pretty well doomed to a slow decline, but our current policy of "Oh look, a problem! Let's throw bombs at it!" and "No, sorry, we can't talk about the defense budget, let's cut taxes and get rid of Medicare!" are just going to accelerate that.

I stumbled across this version of this song recently. Kinda dig it.

But I think there should be some alternate lyrics for Weiner gate:

I'll tweet my dick to you, and more, and that's for sure.
I'll cry on TV for you, and bring the creeps right to your door.
To thrill wingnuts with delight, I'll bring them LOLs all night.
Many things that will excite, make them dream of me at night.
For your love, for your love...

The Truth Behind The Rapture

Looks like it was a pretty close call, but thankfully the folks at Overcompensating saved the day:



To prevent further stupidity of this sort in the future, please spay and neuter any xtians you see, or as a less violent option, please support one of the few secular or atheist organizations that exist.

Musical Rapture

Seems that Friday is a popular day for posting links to various videos and/or musical hijinx and etc. and such as. WTF, why not?

This is the album I just listened to from one of my favorite Portland acts. You need to crank it right the fuck UP for the proper feel of this song:



Now that I think about it, the title actually works for all the rapture idiots -- it'll be Bad Days Ahead for the dumbasses that fell for it, again.

May your Friday rock as much as this song.

Seriously?

So, the Navy might name a new cargo ship after Cesar Chavez. Cue the right-wing freakout.

Chavez was a U.S. citizen, born in the country. And not in some exotic Muslimy place like Hawaii, in the vast liberal mecca that is... Arizona.

He was actually in the Navy, so unlike most wingers, actually served in the military.

Oh, and he fought against illegal immigration. The wingnuts just hate that shit.

But he was a labor organizer, and y'know, his name sounds all furrin' like. So let's flip right the fuck out!

Fucking idiots.
