She’s recoiling from him already!

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I grew, I learned to talk like an adult by copying the words of those smarter than me, which was easy, for they were so numerous.

Does Ben belong to some kind of religious order that forbids shaving on one’s wedding day?

No tongues, I see.

They didn’t get married in a church?

Huh.

Sigh. Another great bachelor off the market.

Well, I’m afraid this is our loss. No more hard-hitting, insightful columns. Now that Ben’s married, he’s gonna sit around, get fat and lazy, and just copy other people’s stuff.

Oh, wait…

I suppose it was a complementary final warning by Ben to the new Mrs Boxturtle that if she hadn’t figured it out already she was, in fact, marrying a douchebag.

If seen in that light… it’s kinda sweet of him, actually. Probably will be the most considerate thing he’ll ever do for her in their entire 3 to 5 year marriage (10 to 12 if they have kids, the poor little bastards).

And see how tightly shut is her mouth! You gat a good night kiss like that and you know there’s no second date.

Is that Roger Simon hiding behind him, waiting for his turn to kiss the bride? Careful, lady, Roger always tries to slip in the tongue.

It looks like he’s kissing Mrs. Box Turtle’s tightly closed upper lip.

took a week end long sabbatical from the interwebs, so I missed the Kagan story. when I went to verify this was the same plagiarist git WaPo fired, I found this on the google. and subsequently saw those hooligans over at Sadly No had taken the same screenshot –

I have been giggling in anticpation of TBogg’s post all morning

My immediate reaction as well.

The poor woman. Then again, she probably doesn’t need to worry about being exhausted after the honeymoon.

According to Wikipedia today: “… He was home schooled by his mother using the Calvert School curriculum (and by correspondence for his last three years of high school)[5].

He attended the College of William and Mary between 1999 and 2002. After receiving a job offer from the US Department of Health and Human Services, he left William and Mary before his senior year.[6]“

So, maybe his mom didn’t know it wasn’t okay to let little Ben just copy from the family encyclopedia to complete his lessons. And he dropped out of college because he got a lucrative job offer in the Bush administration, where his daddy was also employed. With depth and breadth of education and experience like this, we should be congratulating Ben for being able to spell his own name.

I hope I’m not being too generous for assuming he can spell his own name.

Ah, young love. Look at how tense she is as if she’s already perfected the “DonottouchmeIhaveaheadachefortherestofmylife” defense. And, he has no idea how to kiss.

It’s tough to kiss the bride when she seemingly has no lips. But give Ben points for trying.

Wait a minute–didn’t the (formerly virgin) Ben get married like last year? I seem to recall a couple of columns of his about driving to California with the future former Mrs. Ex-Virgin ben, and his fruitless search for an apartment.

Well, ain’t that something. He’s all growed up. Except for his puerile reactionary political views, that is.

Wait a minute–didn’t the (formerly virgin) Ben get married like last year?

I think that was Ben Shapiro. It’s hard to tell these Repig man-child wingnut-welfare pundit douchebags apart.

Ah, yes! You are correct. I guess with all the other similarities (smugness, complete lack of empathy, glaring dishonesty, etc.) it was easy to get confused and, well, Benned-over.

Some girls dream of men, and other girls (the unfortunate ones) settle for plagiarists who might also be Gay.

The minister was Leon Redbone?

My very first thought on seeing that picture! Great minds think alike, and all that stuff…
