Information Design + Politics = WIN! (Hopefully)
When I was an IA my job was to figure out what sections, pages, and page areas contained what information.
Also to make pretty diagrams that the Account Execs and Clients would ooh and aah over without really knowing what they meant.

How'd we start talking about poor people?
Because everyone pictured is black, and we all know black people can't have good jobs.

"I saw fire coming from his hand."
I agree, I had to stop reading after the first page because of the 'trying too hard to impress my HS English teacher' pros.

Jesus, John, are you having a bad day? Because normally I don't think of you as such a bag of dicks.

A new jug ships clean
The Costco here has also had these milk jugs for over two years as well. I also haven't noticed them being any more difficult to pour.

Babies are jerks, am I right?
I made a Bush doesn't care about wet people comment 4 days ago, I'm not up in arms that the daily show said the same thing a few days later.

Freedom of speech
Michael Reagan should face no consequences from the government
We ought to find Micheal Reagan, take him out and kick him in the balls. Really. You take him out, he is a traitor to civility, and kick him. You have a problem with that? Deal with it. You kick him. You call him a traitor, that's what he is, and you kick his balls dead. I'll pay for the steel toe boots. How about you take Michael Reagan out and put him in the middle of a stadium. Tie him to a post, don't... [more]

China's Olympian Human Rights Challenges
There's also this post at the National Underground Freedom Center that is critical of the US's Trafficking in Humans Report and the Media's lack of coverage.
Disclaimer: I work on the Freedom Center's website.

Impeach Dubya.
The problem is that pursuing justice is something the American people are not interested in.
Is it a greater mistake to allow Bush to get away with this or to ensure his policies continue under a McCain administration?

LA sucks for the same reason every other city sucks, it's full of people who aren't exactly like me.

Mario Paint Hero
I created an animated map of the Battle of the Bulge using Mario Paint for a video assignment in my HS history class back in 1992.
I videotaped the screen as I narrated over it while a friend played different clips of music and sound effects. We had to do it all in one shot as we had no editing equipment.
We rocked an A+ on it.

Oleo Lord
Hustler Hollywood is at the next exit.
The Cincinnati Art Museum is outstanding, as is it's MoMA, and the natural history museum at Union Terminal should not be missed, nor should the terminal itself.

for instance, you liked Mr and Mrs Smith, then I'll know that you won't like 2001AD
I like both; the first being 3.5 stars, the latter, a solid 5.

Shoplifting in reverse
At least advertising people have the good grace to quell their own egos long enough to convey a message not soaked in their own self-love.
You've never met anyone in advertising have you?

epic lulz
This is good but, by stating that 4chan is the genesis of most of these memes, he either is unaware of, or unwilling to break the first rule, of the true font of these memes.
This very rule hinders me from correcting him!

Thank you for restoring my faith, if only until the next iraq/presidential thread goes undeleted.

just because they are old school does not mean they can't compete.
No, the fact that they're managed even worse than Givewell means they can't compete

Football's Ironman. (Sorry, Cal.)
I told my wife last night that John Madden passes his time on his bus writing Brett Favre/Tom Brady fan fiction.
We then spent the next 20 minutes arguing who was the bottom (I say Tom).

I remember drifting off to sleep in the summer as my dad listened to Marty and Joe call the game in the other room.
Thanks for the memories Joe.

I blame our societies obsession with cute on the neo-cons.
With so much ugliness and war in the world we're forced to search out lolcats to help us deal.
