Rush pays himself 5000 nickles and then punches himself in the almonds…

And then complains that The Man has got him working below minimum…..

Funny thing. Look at 21 and 24. In a recent Powerline post, Little Johnny Buttmissile <a href="http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2009/08/024409.php”>wrote:

Typical Powerline. Towering arrogance mixed in with industrial levels of stupidity. If GG is irrelevant, I guess Curly, Moe, and Larry over at Powerline should just pack it in.

We should be so lucky.

Why don’t they just call it what it is? The Mean Girls Most Popular 50 Political Blogs, Bitchez! Popularity is not the same as top in my book, but I, too, have more important things to contemplate–such as should I take my nap now or in the afternoon?

Wonder if your theory could be tested by the mockosphere agreeing to only link to wingnuttia via tinyurl? Preliminary googling doesn’t give me any idea of whether or not this would make any difference, tho…

I hate Mean Girls. In between the time they’re ‘cute’ and the time they’re recognised as the fully destructive instruments of devilry they are, they do a lot of harm.

Andrew Not-So-Breitbart and Big Ho at no. 31. That’s all I needed to see. I am now carrying a crate of canned beans down to my fallout shelter to wait for the Apocolypse of Stupid that is surely about to rain down and cleanse the earth.

Agreed. If they only hurt themselves or each other, that would be one thing; it’s the fact that they harm so many other people that really bothers me. It’s like how at the end of W.’s reign when he was going on his ‘I didn’t do anything wrong’ tour. Some people actually expressed sympathy at him for being such a fuck-up. I said, “If he only did all that sit to himself, I might be somewhat sympathetic. Instead, he fucked over the whole country, if not the world. No sympathy for him from me.”

Boing Boing is classified as a political blog? I mean, they do include political posts (mostly about 1st Amendment issues), but come on.

I like the original: http://www.cafepress.com/nationallampoon/1037742

Popularity has given us the Macarena, “You Light Up My Life”, and “reality” television. Mencken’s law is still in full efect.

TBogg,
Did you see Shakira’s ass on Saturday Night Live? I, of course, thought of you since I was never aware of her ass until you started writing about your devotion.

Anyway it was a pretty low-key performance. Though she featured it by posing sideways, she didn’t really do all that much shaking. Maybe she’s injured, huh?

Great.

Now we can look forward to a bunch of posts from the evil munchkin cheerleader along the lines of “you like me, you really like me.”

Technorati sucks. Technorati has always sucked. It’s out of commission 50% of the time, the URL to find links to your own blog changes without notice, and now, at least on my blog, I’m told by Technorati that zero (0) blogs have ever linked to mine (or linked in the past 30 days — I’m not sure anymore what the Technorati time cutoff is). This despite the fact that Google Blog Search says my blog has had 45 incoming links in the past month. Technorati is to whatever-it-does what (as you might put it) Bob Dole’s penis is to sex — sometimes, with a lot of assistance, it actually does what it’s supposed to do, but most of the time it’s just limp.

Shakira’s Ass made an appearance on SNL this past Saturday; it was my first experience with Shakira’s Ass. I was mesmerized. I eagerly await Ross Douthat’s perspective.

Tom Waits for no one….
