Good Late Evening, tonight let’s see what funny things we can find in the news, because all the vagina and uterus stuff is just getting me too damn mad and I seem to be obsessing about it.

If you have anything to add…that made you laugh today…post it!

Caught this image in a tweet today:

Really???? • personhood chart

Speaking of Twitter…there is a trend with hashtag #ReplaceFilmsTitlesWithVagina

I got in on the fun today, and here were some of my suggestions:

“All’s quiet on the Vagina’s front ” starring the .

“The Vagina Syndrome ” starring the .

“Mr. Vagina goes to Washington” starring the .

“All the Vagina’s Men” starring the .

If you all feel like it, post a few suggestions below.

This was funny, but it is based on truth:

Quiz: Baby Got PAC | Mother Jones

And Newt had a bit of a break down…Newt Gingrich’s bus breaks down in West Hollywood; locals show little sympathy | 89.3 KPCC

Gingrich, who is in Los Angeles campaigning, did not receive much sympathy for his vehicle’s mechanical difficulties. Instead, locals took to Twitter with red-white-and-blue language, unsolicited advice, claims of voodoo, musings on karma, and at least one mention of a glitter-bomb:

And one more funny political cartoon:

Now, if anyone has owned a pug knows…you can’t just have one. So this picture reminded me of my two boys, Brutus and Cosmo…both have passed…but they were so damn funny when they did their pug dance.

Yes, Cosmo was named after Cosmo Kramer, and I have to admit…this next link has been such a great break away from all the anti-sponge worthy news…watchseinfeld’s Channel – YouTube

I love the behind the scenes from The Strike aka Festivus, The Betrayal, and The Sniffing Accountant. I do have some other funny ones to share below:

    Minx, you need to make the Viagra panel pic bigger. The facial expressions are the best part.

    I thoughtCharlie Pierce did a great take down of “our mr brooks” and his dog moral hazard on Lin, but this is a stitch and a half:

    http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2012/2/17/2804593/the-worst-column-written-about-sports-ever-published

    I don’t know if New York Times columnist David Brooks is an alien life form. Do aliens have posh Virginia farmhouse offices? Do they need jobs? Aliens probably need jobs. You have to fit in while you figure out your plan to destroy Earth, and that would explain a lot about David Brooks.

    And to be fair, Brooks’ job as alien columnist for the New York Times changes every week.

    “Alien, write about immigration!”

    Jeremy Lin is anomalous in all sorts of ways. He’s a Harvard grad in the N.B.A., an Asian-American man in professional sports. But we shouldn’t neglect the biggest anomaly.

    He has webbed toes, associates smells with colors, and also tucks shirts into his sweatpants. A veritable platypus flying an F-22 of a human being just walking among us, that Jeremy Lin.

    This seems like a really loose definition of anomaly, but it’s not completely inaccurate or insane. This, however, is:

    He’s a religious person in professional sports.

    Conclusion: “David Brooks” has never been to a professional sporting event.

      That was a very good takedown of Brooks.

        I don’t understand why folks that subscribe to magical thinking feel so persecuted. If they re think so right about everything, you think that they’d feel less threatened by us unbelievers. Science, reality, and empirical evidence must have them shaking in their underoos. They make every thing conform to their superstitions. What’s so threatening about those of us that don’t buy it?

    I think I like “Jesus Christ Super Vagina” the best. But the Dr. Strangelove one is pretty good too.

    Love the Ladies of the Viagra Panel. Think we might secretly tattoo ‘All the Vagina’s Men’ across the foreheads of those most righteous, honorable [cough,cough] Republicans? How sweet it would be!

    Love the pugs, btw. Is that a border collie out front? Great pix, minx.

    Bruce Springsteen: ‘What was done to my country was un-American’

    At a Paris press conference on Thursday night, Bruce Springsteen was asked whether he was advocating an armed uprising in America. He laughed at the idea, but that the question was even posed at all gives you some idea of the fury of his new album Wrecking Ball.

    Indeed, it is as angry a cry from the belly of a wounded America as has been heard since the dustbowl and Woody Guthrie, a thundering blow of New Jersey pig iron down on the heads of Wall Street and all who have sold his country down the swanny. Springsteen has gone to the great American canon for ammunition, borrowing from folk, civil war anthems, Irish rebel songs and gospel. The result is a howl of pain and disbelief as visceral as anything he has ever produced, that segues into a search for redemption: “Hold tight to your anger/ And don’t fall to your fears … Bring on your wrecking ball.”

    “I have spent my life judging the distance between American reality and the American dream,” Springsteen told the conference, where the album was aired for the first time. It was written, he claimed, not just out of fury but out of patriotism, a patriotism traduced.

    “What was done to our country was wrong and unpatriotic and un-American and nobody has been held to account,” he later told the Guardian. “There is a real patriotism underneath the best of my music but it is a critical, questioning and often angry patriotism.”

    A great interview with Springsteen. He’s an unabashed supporter of Occupy. The live video for “Wrecking Ball” with Clarence Clemons is included and it’s good.
