So this cool guy screwed over my sister, im a big fan of your sight, hes a real douchebag.

What is the sound of one hair gel follicle spiking?
Why did the ATF smoke-bomb the shoot?
Why is a Dalek attacking?
Wednesday Limerick
There was a bar playah named Jake,
Whom Evil Yellow Sunball thought was a flake,
His shirt did unbutton,
Like a white Charles Dutton,
To impress a bar wench cut to look like Veronica Lake.
The Problem with Tattoos
Let this excellent cartoon, so simple in its visual allegory, remind us of why we fight.
Let it speak to a world where flowery peacocking has been transcribed from cloth to skin in an ever increasing exponential circus.
When the mating game’s intensifying competition among the tribe for the attention of the boobie hottie suckle thigh pits man versus iPod in a competition of digital dazzle.
Tattoos are not the problem.
They are but a symptom of a larger rot.
They remind us of how our desires, our self image, our hopes, our dreams, are each carefully molded by an intense landscape of stimulants. Carrots. Sticks. Reward. Punishment.
Do what they say and all will be well.
Fail to conform and be cast from the herd forever.

Hey DB1.
The douche virus has spread, indeed it it is most powerful on Bondi Beach. Whiole we may be a British colony, popular culture down here emulates that of the USA in many ways- good and bad. Here is a fresh pic from aquabumps.com and proof of the infestation, like a bad zombie movie.
Keep up the good work. Fight the douche!

Indeed one of the most toxic problems of the douchal virus is how it spreads from the swamplands of Jerz to the nethers of global emulation. That’s the price we pay for being the arbiter of global mass media culture. But, as Stan Lieber once wrote, with great power comes great redouchability. Or something like that.
The Bro Who Found Pear
Ah yes, one of the lesser Brothers Grimm fairytales.
The Bro Who Found Pear.
Like the infamous Brothers Grimm fable, The Jew Among The Thorns, this one’ll be erased from the past, sanitized for the sake of the kiddies.
But at least The Bro learns a moral lesson: The pursuit of that which one seeks most in the world is not worth it if the price paid is in bodyspray.
So it’s got that going for it.
That, and boob squeeze.
The Janitors of Vegas
Ruh roh. Looks like The Janitor of Vegas found himself a co-partner in coital cleanup.
And this time they brought Party Girl Yvonne into their stereophonic groinal itchal spread.
It’s like a sandwich made from rotting gouda and a slice of salam.
And by salam, I mean salam.
Yup.
Gettin’ my Monday morning diaper change on around here.
And Then, in 1979, They Made "Delta House"
In case you ever wondered what classic comedy films look like when drained of all creativity and originality and turned into cheap, disposable, horrible laugh-track television.
And yet more.
Your Friday Caption This Pic
Between diaper changes and work on a new project, your humb narrs didn’t have time to get any good links together this week.
Well, there is herpster car mock.
And your Amazon Buy Shit Link in honor of Yom Kippur: Jesus Christ Superstar (40th Anniversary Edition)
And this incredibly cool use of digital technology to merge historical crime photos wit contemporary images.
And Tri-Pear.
You’re welcome.
But other than that, I gots the nuthin’.
So while I suck at keeping up this site with the intensity of mock that defined our halcyon days, I do have this.

What the hell do these husk/shells of human beings actually discuss on a daily basis?
And with that, we drift into Friday eve.
And Yom Kippur. Where your humb narrs fasts and repents for my many, many sins. Lets hope Adonai forgives me. I know He has to, but I’m not so sure.
Is it a sin if you only lust in your colon?
