The way I figure it, the earth will become a smoking and desolate wasteland, its seas grey, lifeless and covered with the scum of pollutants and ash from the fallout sometime around January 26, 2009, which is less than a week after the inauguration of President John "Maverick" McCain.
Hundreds of years later, space dragons traveling from Agamidae Prime will colonize the planet, mining it for our rich deposits of sodium silicate and bentonite to be used to line their intergalatic terrariums. While picking through the rubble of our once great cities, a dragon named AS Flippen will discover a working computer (in all likelihood a Mac) and, extracting information from the hard drive, they will discover that the election of President John "Maverick" McCain was the direct result of my failure to be funny and because Roy was being mean to conservative bloggers.
This will come to be known as the Blogging Butterfly Effect.
So you might as well empty out your retirement accounts, run up your credit cards and party party party like its 2-0-0-9.

Woohoo!
The Wonderful Wife and I are outta here! No more scrimping and saving for retirement for us.
Any dope who changes his/her mind about who they’ll vote for president based on these reasons is a hopeless case.
So, now that the hollering is over, I just want to ask you, TBogg: are you one of those people that reads 1963 Playboys just for the Sinatra interviews, or did you look at the pictures too?
I like the pictures. No fake boobs, pubic hair like grown women are supposed to have.
Dear Mr. TBogg,
You need to quit FDL and get back to a blog with unregistered comments again; far away from this crowd, which is teh unfunny. Please.
Most sincerely, gbear.
Well gbear, the snorg tee ads are an upgrade from the old site. If only because of the models inside them.
The commenters aren’t bad, but I do miss the old days when Godlstein or Rawlins would drop in for a hilarious batting about. The registered scene is so much more civilised and staid.
Snorg tee ads, references to Playboy on the front page…I had no idea Firedoglake was such a bastion of sexism.

Sigh. Why does Kornbluth have to be so damn right?
Yes, yes we are. But never mind that.
You need to do this more often. Some of my favorites:
(I hope that this last one was what you kids call ’satire’)
and
Guess they don’t know you very well, do they? Or, to put it another way, what part of “snark” don’t you understand?
Oh and BTW, that was a great picture of our (hope to be) next president.
Omigod, Roy was mean to Jonah and Michelle. I am so voting for McQueeg now.
TBogg,
The Intertubes is a marvelous place! Only in this magical world could people both misunderstand AND be insulted by a linked-to Playboy interview from 1963 while a different set of inbred morons can register outrage about the “elitism” in an article written for the Village Voice by a guy who used to be in the “Reverb Motherfuckers” ranking on writers for The Atlantic, The Minneapolis Star-Tribune, The National Review and a couple of law professors at major state universities.
re the roy edroso post mentioned above:
the michelle malkin stupid/evil ratio should be 100/100
otherwise spot on
If McCain is ‘Maverick’, doesn’t that make all the rest of us ‘Goose’? And doesn’t Goose die? See, it’s all preordained. It was written in the sacred text by the ancient ones, Simpson and Bruckheimer.
