Palin's Tea Party pals come up big in GOP primaries

via the New York Daily News 

Tripp “the bastard” Palin: Christmas come early kiddo….

holy shit, holy shit, holy shit. Christmas come early. No, Tripp, Daddy (via Levi Johnson) isn’t coming back (he doesn’t love you). It’s better than that: the great state of Illinois, the state that brought you Lincoln-Douglas and Blogoyovitch-JerrySpringer debates, hosted the first annual Sexy Sarah Look-A-Like Contest aka Strippers Dressed as Palin as, wait for it, AN OFFICIAL FUNDRAISER FOR THE TEA PARTY. Somewhere, Rupert Murdoch is crying and counting his money at the same time wishing he came up with this genius idea. Our only question is, will it hurt or benefit Palin when these strippers are inevitably mistaken for her during her 2012 campaign for hrer President?

Who wants to be America’s Next Top Neo-Con?

You wanna be on top?

I’ll let you be my running mate…

Poll: Would men want to see their president naked (via Gina Davis)? Will the first women president be a stripper? Playmate of the year=veteran in terms of street-cred with voters? Will Monica Lewinski return to politics? 

These are the days of our lives…..

A New Grassroots Movement is Starting….

…the “Turn Trenton into the Vatican of New Jersey” movement. From the pages of the Trentonian to you (this really was a headline), 

“Transform Trenton into ‘Vatican’ of New Jersey”  The Trentonian, local news, sports and weather Serving Trenton, NJ, Mercer and Bucks counties

So, This…

Will Become this….

This….

Will Become this….

Chris Christie will be named Pope?

The capital building will be the sistine chapel?

So if you’d like to turn Trenton NJ, (aka the “lil shitter”) into the Vatican City (aka a city whose streets are ACTUALLY gold) join the movement.

Why do we emphasize American mediocrity?


Hipster Diaspora Update: Go west young hipsters, to the great state of Arizona

As we all know 2010-12 are the years when the hipster diaspora will commence. Let’s face it-rents are only going to go up in Silver Lake, Williamsburg, Green Point let alone all the hipster persecution that has recently started via urban guerilla violence against american apparel outlets. Hipsters: NYC/LA is too overpopulated by your type, go west, to the site of the future hipster movement: ARIZONA!!

Now that Arizona will be devoid of Mexis via racial profiling, there will be plenty of opportunities for young hipsters looking to make some money to buy more PBR, go to more concert festivals, own American Apparel. 

Hipsters will be the backbone of the workforce; hipsters will only take the jobs americans don’t want; the american economy will be built on the alternative dreams of displaced hipsters. 

The climate is perfect for outdoor festivals 

Plenty of ironic spots to ironically grab a burger

 Plenty of things to complain about since Arizona is actually a fucking shithole/”most livable”.

 Mediocrity is my lifestyle choice. I live in Arizona. 

This unashamed wannabe is terrorising the talent scouts of LA with her chav [slang for chauvinistic? I hope so] pop. Meet the degenerate Hannah Montana, Ke$ha.There’s a pretty obvious clue right there in her name– her MySpace URL is myspace.com/keshaishot, under “sounds like” on her site she’s written simply “God having an orgasm”….Her music is like an über US version of “chav pop” – trailer trashy to the max – only it’s so full-on it’s almost like some postmodern arthouse joke. “She reminds me of girls I run into on Friday nights, full of bravado and cheap beer, throwing signs like damn fools,” wrote one blogger. “I have no doubt that she will do very well.
