The Medieval World Was Much More Dangerous than Ours

I blame NM for introducing me to Got Medieval, which almost killed me today.  I’m sitting there reading, snickering about the medieval personals and following links where I discovered this post about medieval beavers, who were believed to rip their own testicles off and throw them in the face of hunters.  I almost choked on [...]

NSFW, If You Work At One of Those Places that Frowns on Surfing the Net

Because you will get caught when you laugh out loud at the police dog trying to bite the other cop.

Also, It’s Important to Ask Your Partner if She’s Allergic to Strawberries

Before you put them in her vagina.

Once You Bring Dairy Queen Into It…

Okay, so maybe i has a hotdog is slowly finding its own voice.  I laughed at this anyway.
When I lived in North Carolina there was a billboard for Dairy Queen that said, “Kids, Holler ’til your Dad stops!”  Which, in retrospect, seems a little nefarious, but at the time, I thought it was very cute.
Did [...]

Is There a Word for a Person who Disproves His Own Work through His Work?

William Saletan, who has spent the larger part of two months “bravely” pondering what it might mean if white people were inherently smarter than black people admits he neglected to do the very basic work it would have taken to discover that one of the scientists he relies most heavily on is a racist.

They Say that Analyzing a Joke Kills It. We Can Only Hope.

Here’s a joke Mack has told in my presence 157 times (give or take 150 times).
Some tourists have been sight-seeing in a quaint Mexican village, but they soon have to get back to their tour bus, and so they approach the one person they can find, a little old man sitting in the village square [...]

Friday Afternoon Laughs

1.  I find the LOL cats more miss than hit, but when they hit, I about can’t stop laughing.  Check out the Tiger and the Mortgage.
2.   The lesser-known Johnson at the crossroads.
3.  I can’t decide if this is Sarcastro as a child or what Sarcastro has to look forward to when the little guy [...]

I Keep Waiting for these Women Who Have Left Feminism to Put the Butcher on their Checking Accounts, but They Never Do

Y’all, I’ve been giggling about this all morning.
Two things really strike me.  Let’s start with the lesser funny and move on to the greater funny.
1.  “Newsflash. The Internets can be mean. Actually, feminists are some of the meanest ones out there, but whatever. (I broke with the sisterhood, so I should be virtually beat up.) [...]

Funny

The couple in front of me is making out so loudly that even though they’re two rows up I can hear their lips smacking together.
The couple behind me is giving a running commentary of the make-out session.  “Come on baby, let’s neck.”  “I can’t tell you like me unless you make loud slurping noises.”

“Treatment Effects”

I can add nothing more to this hilarious take-down of alli, except to add that the publicity department that is able to gloss over the fact that this drug is going to make you shit your pants should win some kind of prize.  I mean, they tell you that this drug will make you shit [...]

Let’s Just Be Honest

If I caught that ball in my mouth and then dropped it into my hands, folks would be writing blog posts about it right now like it was the most amazing thing they ever saw
But let me trap it between my arm and a tit before I get a hold of it and somehow I’m [...]

The Recalcitrant Brother Saves Me From Making a Fool of Myself

Too bad for Springfield, Illinois.  I was just getting ready to get on here and apologize to you for regularly making fun of the fact that you were terrorized by a pack of feral pigs in the 1800s.
Seriously, my thinking has been, you didn’t have fifty guys with guns in your town who could shoot [...]

“But I Drive Down Jefferson Street!”

Y’all, this is the kind of story that careers get ruined over, but it is so funny to me that I cannot refrain from telling it to you anyway.  True story that I heard last night, but stripped of all revealing information.
Let’s say that there’s a large corporation here in town and upper management is [...]

The Mysterious “Other Butt”

Maybe it’s too early in the week for cooter humor, but this post from Gone Feral has me laughing so hard tears are running down my cheek.
I should back up here and explain that there were certain, errr, anatomical misapprehensions regarding the status of the ‘gina as a bona fide second ass until we introduced [...]

How the Butcher Almost Killed Us On My Way To Work

Yes, I was just the girl talking about how awesome chunks of endometrial lining are.  So, why hearing the Butcher sneeze, then say, "Oh, gross" and then looking over and seeing the most humongous snot hanging out of his nose and down onto his arm should cause me to start uncontrollably screaming and shuddering, I [...]

Funny Things

1.  Elias sent me the link to this cartoon.  “I’ve got a friend on the team.”–What more can I say about the Patriarchy?
2.  Brittney gets me back on Nashville is Talking just as I start talking about menstruation.  I really should just change the name of this blog to “All Cooter Talk.  All the Time.” [...]

The Mint Pooper

Someone in my building at work has shit that smells like mint. 
The only explanation I can come up with is that she must just be chowing down on Altoids all day.
In our other building, we had some rancid pooper whose identity I finally discovered, but my desk had a line of sight right to [...]
