I don't mean that, of course.  Keeping gays out of Eurovision is like asking them to keep out of sodomy.  It's just part of the whole gay experience.

Doubt me?



QED

And yet there are some European cities who have hosted and will host the music contest who are definitively hostile to gays, like this year's host city, Moscow, whose mayor stated of gay parades, “Not only do they destroy morals within our society, but they consciously provoke disorder that threatens the lives of Muscovites and visitors.”. It's like straight men who have sex with men, but only if they're tied up and blindfolded.

The guy off camera at the very end cracks me up.



If you haven't been following it, I'll give you a quick rundown of what this is about.

1. The National Organization for Marriage responded to the Iowa ruling and the new Vermont law allowing gay marriage by creating this wildly dishonest commercial that was designed to scare people into opposing gay marriage.  

• The commercial mentions a "rainbow coalition," which is a phrase used in the past to describe gay organizations.
• NOM also came up with an anti-gay campaign called 2 Million for Marriage, handily abbreviated 2M4M, which alludes to more gay sex.
  

1. The HRC somehow got a hold of some of the audition tapes for that commercial, which were really very bad.
2. Lots of people started making parodies of the commercial including these people--
3. --who just released the video above as a spoof on the audition videos as well.

I know most grown-ups aren't into cartoons the way I'm into cartoons.  When I say I watch cartoons, most people assume I mean Family Guy, American Dad, Simpsons, and other Adult Swim programs.  And while I do enjoy many of those shows, I also watch a good amount of children's cartoons.

Well, the Cartoon Network has a new cartoon out now called the League of Super Evil (L.O.S.E.) and it is HYSTERICAL.  The art is good.  The voice work is great.  The writing is awesome.

It's about a team of supervillains in a subdivision.  There's Voltar, the leader;  Red Menace, a big, happy, nice guy who is inexplicably on a bad guy team; Doktor Frogg, an evil scientist who gets hurt by his inventions a lot; and Doomageddon, their interdimensional dog.  And they have hijinks and they're awesome.



This is pretty obviously made for boys, but girls should like it, too, I think.

This so rude and not really safe for work at all.  But John David sent me this site and I'm cracking up.  It measures the length of your ePenis.

I'm not sure how it calculates it... maybe it's your number of followers or something.  Still.  Crazy!

I went to a party last night in an Irish bar in North East Philly (Apparently, if you're from the north east, the particular section of the city will be meaningful to you.) and "Ice Ice Baby" came on.

I mentioned that I had never heard the whole song before and this young woman in the group said she loves Vanilla Ice and that he is "so hot!"

She didn't stop there.  She then told us how she was upset when after inviting him to attend her wedding he didn't even respond to decline the invitation.

1 I wonder what her husband thought of her inviting Vanilla Ice. Especially because she thinks he is "so hot".

Posted by: NickS at February 28, 2009 02:10 PM (QnxQd)

2 I ran into Vanilla Ice about 10 years ago at a dive bar in a tiny town outside of Atlanta.  He was playing the same place the following night.  He actually was very hot in person. 

There.  I said it.

Invited him to her wedding.

There are so many things wrong with that, that I just gave her a high five for her audacity.

4 I am just watching the  news.  Are you bracing for the snow storm?  How is your promotion to the new job going?  I was in Chicago this morning...just some lake effect flurries.

Check it: Magenta isn't a color!

WHO KNEW!?!



(This isn't literally true.  The person is exaggerating to demonstrate a particular physiological phenomenon.  I don't necessarily agree with portions of her explanation, but it's still an interesting thing to contemplate.)

Thanks, W.A.D.!

This commercial has been coming on during the morning news for a few weeks now.  At first it annoyed the hell out of me, but after seeing and hearing it so many times it kind of cracks me up.  I even stop putting on my shoes to watch it.

I suspect subliminal messages are involved.

I found a new game!  It's called Inca Blocks!

Basically, you manipulate the particular gravitational forces that act upon blocks to position them over their outlines in order to move to the next level.  The first levels are easy-peasy, but the later levels take some real trying.

I probably would not play this game without a mouse, so if you have one out those laptop pad thingies, this might not be as fun for you.
