If you’re looking for a movie to watch, I suggest this one. And not only because Kos and I get $50 for every person who sees it on our recommendation- it’s also a really good film.
Above: Keanu Reeves plays Gary Ruppert’s true identity in A Scanner Darkly.
Does anyone else find it lame that soccer’s world championship was decided by penalty kicks? I mean really…
Gavin adds: I find it lame that it was won by Italy.
Hey man, have you heard about the new Italian wine?
It goes, “Mama Mia, I am so injured. Penalty, penalty.”
Well I think that we can coalesce around a suitable internet verb for Dr. Deb Frisch formerly of the University of Arizona Psychology Department:
To Frisch: Writing something on the internet so creepy and offensive that you are forced to quit your job before getting canned. Ex. Deb really frisched herself when she threatened that blogger’s 2 year old child with death and sexual molestation.
Hey, remember when Frisch said this?
Incidentally, Tim? I touched your sister in her secret places. Lots.

Ooops, wait. It seems that Jeff Goldstein said that. And there’s lots more where that came from.
I wonder if he should get his own verb too? How about…
“To Goldstein: Writing something on the Internet so creepy and offensive that you face no consequences because you have no job and your buddies will look the other way when you threaten to beat people like bitches and slap them in the face with your cock.”
I think it works.
There’s a brand new brushfire sweeping the right-blogohoopdy. And here’s Confederate Yankee to tell what it’s about:
A Proud Member of the Toddler-Threatening Community
It was disgusting a year ago when Daily Kos posters were all for attacking the sexual orientation of four-year-old Jack Roberts, the son of then Supreme Court nominee (and now Chief Justice) John Roberts. I thought it was disgusting, abhorrent behavior by deranged individuals, and I thought I’d seen the lowest of the low.
Apparently two commenters at Daily Kos out of a community of 150,000 equals ‘Daily Kos posters were all for.’ But truly, yes, it was disgusting and the lowest of the low, and nothing so horrible has ever been seen.
Then came University of Arizona psychology professor Deborah Frisch.
Jesus’s General has stabbed the blogosphere in the back with Tiny Tim doing ‘Do Ya Think I’m Sexy.’
And now for the doomsday weapon:
True, we’re sitting on a pile of rubble and ashes and human bones, covered in boils, fighting each other for rat carcasses and looted antibiotics. But General, did you mean ‘doomsday weapon?’ I thought you said ‘doomsday weapon,’ but there must be some mistake somewhere.
Aaah! We’re in flames! We’re going down!
Ha ha, not so fast, Mr. Editors. Leonard Nimoy is bad mojo indeed, and the damage is indeed terrible.
However, Nimoy is decidedly not naked and insane, taking unknown drugs, randomly punching and sexually assaulting the audience, taking a dump onstage and throwing it at the camera, and fated to die of a massive OD of cheap street narcotics that same night.
Oh, sorry; that was the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special. This is GG Allin’s final show:

While his first two attacks were devastating, his latest effort is decidedly lacking. Obviously, Atrios didn’t anticipate the awesome power that is ALYSSA MILANO’S TEEN STEAM:
As for the Editors… OK, that Leonard Nimoy video fucking smarted. I mean, that was a devastating blow. But we have a special surprise in store for you- a Wendy’s video that trains employees through the magic of rapping. Behold the destructive might of GRILL SKILL!!!!
So this is how we’re going to play the game, eh?
Well then, let’s start off with a li’l classic called “Thank You, America.” It goes a little somethin’ like this:
And from there, we move onto this guy, who might very well be the most insane honky I’ve ever seen:
Your latest assault was indeed terrible, but if Atrios thinks we can be destroyed by patriotic mawk like the Right Brothers, he has another…MOO!
Wait, what was that? Oh, that was a star-spangled cow launched from a catapult.
MOO! Blam, splat.

Hmmm…
While we were busy pummelling the Editors with Stryper, Styx, Wesley Willis, Dio and Billy Ray Cyrus, it seems that Atrios launched a direct assault on our shores. And quite a formidable attack it was- there is almost nothing more painful than watching the ’85 Bears performing the “Super Bowl Shuffle.”
Note how I said “almost.”
Yes, that’s John Bolton’s barely-less-evil twin brother Michael. What’s that, Atrios? You want more? OK. How about THE FULL FIVE MINUTE VERSION OF “LET THE EAGLE SOAR!!!!!!”
Gavin adds: Sneak attack by the Liberal Avenger. Apparently he thinks ‘Ca Plane Pour Moi’ is annoying. Cha. Pff. Tt. Kh. Take this:
Although Taco’s ‘Putting on the Ritz’ has drained our shields, and we’re now taking shots to the hull… Gavin out.
