I just got a Twitter news alert about the death of Grumpy Cat, a topic I’ve never favoured with an opinion.

― suzy, Friday, 17 May 2019 11:53 (three weeks ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

The most controversial article on the news in September 2011 was the controversial article on the death of Grumpy Cat.

First, there was this comment on that piece:
"I hate Grumpy Cat. She is so, so mean to us."

I hate Grumpy Cat. Her presence is not tolerated. … I cannot stand that grumpy cat has been a regular presence on my screen in our living room for the past 16-years, in any of the shows or movies I have ever watched. There is enough anger and spite in Grumpy Cat's words. She is a jerk and, if I didn't know any better, I think I may feel worse for feeling angry at her.

But there is one major difference between the Grumpy Cat comment and moose, a moose that is usually eaten by people, usually women: Grumpy Cat's mother can be heard saying this before her husband kills her. The reason it is so controversial is because it suggests an attitude of total disrespect towards those who have taken her for granted. It is a disrespect of those whose life she now would be able to

Post 18 My boyfriend started hanging out with these people at a party I attended during my Junior year of college. About a month before he graduated from college, we got drunk and played too much game playing the games we knew he wanted to try on a game of his own, when I tried to get him to play, he wouldn't leave me alone and told me to leave him alone, and left. I called police and they took me to jail for assault or battery, he was in the back of a police cruiser for hours trying to pull me away, and no one gave a crap whether the officer knew or not, so he had me put in front of a computer to see if I could help me with trying to connect the games he had left me, nothing came of it! I went into court in tears as I cried every time I heard what he had said, and went back home that day thinking, "I know this is not good, but it's better than just sitting with him all day trying to figure out why he won't leave me alone."

Post 17 I don't know how I got here but all this stuff about "proud supporters" getting "unexpected support" is the worst shit in the world! That's just the definition of bullying. I'm really happy your girlfriend and husband took it from the troll! I'm sorry. But I know you'll understand and forgive the fuck up when it happens again.

"What are your intentions with this? The people you think you've lost don't really deserve these things" No the ones that have not been treated with respect really, they need to get what they deserve. I can't think of any real "wrong" that I want anything to do with. It feels like everything seems so easy right now and I don't know what that leaves to do.

"That's the sort of world your parents had. People you had nothing to do with but they had a lot of people in your life that loved you and were proud of your success, now you have nothing." If someone has a "family" then of course it wouldn't just start to suck. Even the people you had no connection with get that. So why the fuck is it when people say anything negative about you they get "unexpected support"? And then to try and blame the person that is treating you with respect? It's like they're getting "hate mail" about their children.

Thor: The Tesseract belongs on Asgard, no human is a match for it.
Tony turns to leave, but Steve stops him.
Steve: You're not going alone!
Tony: You gonna stop me?

(the Doctor screams at him)
Steve: No, but you're never going to go without me!
A little annoyed, Tony walks off.
A few days later, while Tony is out shopping for a new suit, a group of aliens has landed on the planet.
Tony: Get them out of my city!
They rush towards him (with the help of the Doctor, Captain America and Thor and some Thorians).
Captain America: So you are the real villain, huh? So this isn't a fight between me and my brother-in-arms!
(a white-eyed Thor throws an ice blast at Tony, who dodges it.)
Thor: I'm here to save the day, sir, not your city!
Tony: (trying to dodge a shield) I said, "Don't you dare!".
Captain America: So there you go, you're the one holding out for me!
A couple moments later, Tony's talking with Thor about the Hulk. While his other companions are talking, Thor has something to say.
Thor: Don't talk! Don't talk to me, I could die

the candidate i support in the 2020 presidential primaries is ________. ________. ________. ________. ________," a message sent by campaign manager Jeff Weaver in response.

I've asked my former boss for a response on how this is possible. Weaver, who resigned from the Democratic National Committee in late 2016, declined to provide comment on the email.

The controversy has created a firestorm of criticism for the email exchange — and the DNC's handling of it.

The email was a first for the Democratic Party. In addition to Clinton, she also relied on the former secretary of state's email.

Since her resignation, several key DNC staffers have been fired — including director of data and technology Brian Fallon, digital director Luis Miranda, digital director Luis Miranda, deputy digital director Michael T. Short, and deputy digital director Jon Brodman.

The email came to light through an investigation by an outside team of hackers called the Shadow Brokers, who disclosed the information about Clinton to Trump campaign officials and Democratic officials early this year.

Trump, speaking this weekend, dismissed the WikiLeaks email as the product of a "professional hacker group."

"WikiLeaks is a failed organization with the same people, the same skills, and they get rich off of totally illegal behavior," Trump told The Washington Post in an interview, referring again to Russia's

A couple of other things I've noticed are:-

-This isn't in one post. The other one starts with a post on something called the "Dangerous Laughter" movement, which was basically some folks thinking about things that they had recently heard - like:

"What if some people laughed at death while we watched an animated movie from the 1970s? "

-And then something along the lines of:

"Oh, I don't know, how about some people laugh at the death of a person who's been decapitated over dinner with a gun or who has already been decapitated by other people over dinner"? "

-And then...

"Oh, well I guess, you know, the fact that every time we see someone get decapitated on film we want to make it look like we're trying to get someone off the screen for being decapitated by fire breathing birds that are being killed by human hands with a saw-tooth hammer and then have that decapitated animal being eaten by humans that've been screaming at it"

-And then this:

"I would prefer if the show didn't have any human actors that get killed. What would be a good way to start the show

I am not a racist, but I do hate people just like yours," one of them replied.

A few days earlier, another woman had joined in and said "What the s---? I'm just here to have a drink with a friend, and you don't want to know about it? Why do you think I'm here?"

But the most offensive moment occurred when one of his friends told her, "You just act like this is one of your little 'buddy's', like you're an honorary member when you're not."

"Why do you think I'm here?" she replied.

According to reports, the male friend was then confronted by the officer, who then told him she should have a "straightface speaking style" and a "straight back facing voice" before she was allowed to use the public restroom for the evening, as he was required to do by law.

The officer then threatened to arrest the two women for violating the men's personal space, and they refused to back down, and the confrontation escalated.

One of the women, who said she had been waiting for almost an hour for her service, said the situation was "ridiculous" because she had to pee. At this point, an officer walked up out of his patrol car and threatened to arrest the women for disorderly conduct for attempting to ur

I am a racist, but I do not believe you are a racist."

Some say it will be different with Donald Trump as president.

"He just said something offensive about Mexicans being rapists, something of the same nature and nature as the statements that were made about me, and he just made a joke. How in the world can anyone, who would say anything, accept things from him," said Juan Martinez.

Some say Trump is not as qualified to run for president, but said a third party candidate would have to pick a side.

"I think Donald Trump could certainly be, 'Oh yeah that would be a really great idea' and maybe not be able to be president at all," said Joe Torres.

There is also concern that his behavior this week in the media could be a sign of something more sinister. In an interview in the "Today Show," he said he has been having "rampant heart palpitations":

He's never apologized for anything he has said or done in the past. He is not even apologetic in all of his public actions of the past. He is a brash man of business, a master of publicity, who is at war with the press and his critics. He is trying to change the narrative by telling all of my friends and family in the past tense because he feels the press is covering his every

My name is Rachelle and I am a professional naturopathic naturopath and a proud pet owner! Here in Austin TX I've been a full-time professional for 15 years and I hope to keep doing so for many more!I'm now on my 11th year working with my amazing husband and dog, who I love dearly and wish well for!We have a thriving house filled with beautiful creatures and pets. The only problem is I am so tired of all the little things we have to worry about. We are extremely fortunate to have beautiful pets like our gorgeous puppy that enjoys having fun and being around animals. My husband and dogs are very active outdoors and need to be in the kitchen so our 2 children can watch and play! So we have come up with a plan. We'll start by getting a few toys into the house. These toys should get you going quickly! They are so easy to use and I don't have to worry about breaking them from our own kids!!We will spend a month playing with them all. Once we have them all set we will add this extra step.. we will begin to prepare for the birth of our baby!I will begin by getting an MRI! It will help determine what your baby will smell like and how many bones you need! This procedure is extremely important because if the

This song was recorded by my father in 1999
I can't tell you how many times this song was played to us on the beach before the sea got the better of the waves
I couldn't tell you when there actually was a ship
The ship did not go down
And when they came out, I guess they were expecting a ride on that ship, but we came up and sat on a bench, and waited for them to be picked up
They kept telling us to sit down
They didn't tell us to sit down
They didn't tell us to sit down
Oh yeah it did, my dear
And every day of the following month We were like, no we did not go down
We didn't go down
We didn't go down
We didn't go down
We didn't go down
Hear you, hear you
Our song went up through the air and we could hear the sounds of our father singing
But we didn't feel happy We went nowhere
We went nowhere
They went nowhere
And we couldn't tell you where it came from
But we thought we knew where it was going

'IS there more than [I assume you mean] 'Dark Star'? WTF? That's like saying "IS there more to the Sistine Chapel than the motherfucking ceiling?" Like, what else do you need in your life? (Besides 'BLues for Allah'!) Also, what's wrong with 'annihilating enjoyment'? Music is supposed to annihilate stuff, doesn't matter what it is. If a band is trying to be cool but they get bored of being cool and just don't want to talk about it anymore, they should find some other music to play while they play.

I get it. If you wanna talk about 'Dark Star' then it's fine, but don't feel like you need to talk all year round or make comments about something that's going on around the world or something because you hate being in the news. What's the point in putting out a massive record on a single day if one will probably sound lame in a few years? You better be prepared! You may not know what your favorite record is, but you might know exactly what kind of person you are, so why bother having a review of a fucking album from the first side? Go figure!

You see, you used to love me and you used to be

Tell your momma to get off of my tip
I have no time to give her my

And the cops that run this town
Came and took off
Ain't no way to stop us
And the feds that rule this country,
Can't even find a nuthin' they can do
And I don't know what else I can say
I'm not the easiest one to talk to cause when I tell my mother I need money
I know it hurts every step of the way
I'm just trying to raise money to pay for the food
It was just us boys, the rest of you
And I know my momma didn't expect it,
But the night it all began,
She did the hardest thing a little girl can do
She put us all through the nightmare of a night
My favorite part is when one of us gets shot and the other is just lying there,
We're all trying to find the last word
It's so easy to make excuses
In the morning, we all ask what happened,
The reason, when I ask, is because everyone's just got their own truth I ain't telling it all,
I ain't sure how one person would know

Start with your bulb off for at least 5 seconds.
1.Turn on for 8 seconds
2.Turn off for 2 seconds
3.
Turn on again and again
4.Turn off for 60 seconds and repeat
4.Turn on for 10 seconds
5.Turn off for 50 seconds and repeat
6.Turn on for 5 seconds and remove from flame for 180 seconds. I like to remove it after every time I turn the fluke on because that can get a little hot on the skin afterwards. You should get an excellent smoke from the whole thing. I don't recommend burning with this on your hand. When you do that you are going to get burn marks and it might leave a white smear on your hand.
Use a soft cotton brush to get a good amount of air bubbles out and then blow them out with the bulb flame.
You will know it has exploded if you can smell it. Use a soft cloth to wipe that off easily. The white substance will give off that horrible smell and smell pretty bad afterwards.
This piece has not only been used up and has started to burn, yet there is still an extremely dry taste that you can feel if you try to pull too hard.
If you take off your skin the smell could continue to the next day, even for a few days

I'm not mad at the stranger

I'm not mad at the stranger

You don't get me

You don't get me

If you want to kill me do it, you kill me do it

If you want to kill me do it, you kill me do it

I'm not mad at the child

I'm not mad at the stranger

And you never, ever get me

I'm not mad at the stranger

I'm not mad at the stranger

And you never, ever know

I'm not mad at the child

Ten things I learned being in a polyamorous relationship:

1. I'm not a liar. I was told, repeatedly, that every time I said that "the poly lifestyle is monogamous," I was lying. After reading all my stories, I now realize that I wasn't kidding. A lot of people who go to polyamory classes do so as an excuse for doing stupid things like "taking off my clothes at night" or "eating too fast." I did not do any such thing. So as I said in my original interview (here), I do not believe myself to be a liar. You don't lie in a polyamorous relationship. Even if he says to me, "Your body has turned into your partner and your sexual partner," I'm not going to lie. There is no reason to lie because lying is bad for everyone. For the sake of everyone: I do my best to be honest with everyone, and we all want the best for each other. One of the benefits of having this freedom is the freedom to take care of each other's needs. I was taught, even though I'm now sure I've told you the truth, that you can't just turn your partner, partner number one, into another partner. I knew all along that this is never going to happen. So I made a commitment to myself to tell my partner this.

Pero el negro de tus ojos que no muera

Como su fiesta porque este otro

I'm your cousin...
I never wanted to do this...I love you...thank you...I'll never forget you...
And I didn't want to miss your funeral because of you
And I'll never stop looking at you...I love you
I never wanted to be born here, but I'm a virgin now
I love you and my heart will always be yours
I'll be your best friend forever

Seventy Two Virgins
by Boris Johnson
HarperCollins £17.99, pp336-9

After a trip to Israel, Boris Johnson returns to London on his way to an address by Theresa May. Having been called to Westminster to receive the Nobel prize for his contribution to the civil-unions campaign, Johnson is asked if he would consider a future post in Downing Street. The young politician replies: "Of course, I would." The next morning, the Daily Mail announces that he has been appointed the new ambassador for the UK to Germany, a position he soon takes up under Sir Roger Bannister.

I actually used this to name our new baby. We couldn't agree on one, so I put in our shortlist, it came up with a winner!

This is the opening dialogue from Ken Laszlo's italo disco classic 'Hey Hey Guy', which reads like it was written by AI as it is.

Ken: "Hallo"
French guy: "Hallo, ?"
Ken: "Oh dear, you have phone"
French guy: "Yeah, hey guy, tell me about your menicure"
Ken: "I love you and feel the groove"
French guy: "Tell me about it, is it the true"
Ken: "It's true, yes, it's true"
French guy: "Don't fool out, it's dangerous"
Ken: "Don't worry, baby gold"
French guy: "Everything is same as all"
Ken: "Everything is the same"
French guy: "Oh, I love you"
Ken: "Me too"
French guy: "I love you"

Ken: "Me, too"
[Randy has another woman's voice (Randy is in a different voice-over for him during each of those scenes.)]
Randy: "You have a good accent?"
French girl: "Yes- I'm from France"
Ken: "Ahhhhhhh"
French guy: "Amen yo- I'm from France"
Ken: "Me too, baby"
French guy: "It says 'Boulevard de la Mer' you know"
Ken: "Oh"
Randy: "That's French

Johnny: I did not hit her! It’s not true! It’s bullshit! I did not hit her! I did not! (he throws a water bottle to the floor) Oh, hi Mark.

(Bender screams in pain.)

Bender: Hey, Mark!

Nan: (to Lars) I just thought you should know. He's a pretty tough kid. You know? If you ever come around his neighborhood again, the world will know he was a nice boy!

(Bender throws an axe at Lars in the temple, breaking it with one swing. He turns around to see a huge blue creature that looks quite similar to the blue alien, but with different tentacles and a shorter body)

Bender: That was your plan all along? Oh, yes, that was your plan all along!! (He runs out of the temple with his axe in hand. Lars looks to Mark)

Mark: (staring at the tree with a slightly sad expression) It's getting kind of late, man. I think I would rather spend my days in bed waiting to die.

Lisa: Hey, Mark! I'm here with you, all right? (She and Homer walk into the temple to see Lisa. Lisa hugs Mark and gives him her hair, which he removes)

Dan I., Wednesday, 21 August 2019 20:54 (four years ago) link

oops. forgot the completion, which is not very good really.

I was the shadow of the waxwing slain
By the false azure in the windowpane;

The sky was white with blood, the moon a cloud;

Beneath my wings a bird was achiving

Fantastically from the cloud in the windowpane:

But the wind would move it, and I could give

Only these one feeble word: 'Fly away!'

'Well, fly away!' was all I could say—

The bird took wings.
