After this press conference, is Hillary planning to walk up the mountain with a picnic basket for her Grandpapa?

I don’t want to speak for anyone else here, but I, at least, would appreciate it if you could choose somewhere other than right beside your locker in the change room to insert your tampon.

Destined to become the web-sensation heir to “Kids Watching Sneezing Panda,” please enjoy my niece Olivia cracking the hell up at “Hamster On A Piano“:

A Short Play About Bacon Hitler

Tara: Gosh.

Dave: What?

Tara: Bacon Hitler.

Dave: Oh yeah, I saw that.

Tara: I should have known you would have already.

Dave: It set off my “Hitler” Google Alert.

Some might say that a fur bomber jacket on a man is a bad idea. You paired it with matching velour pants and made it work.

I Get Around

The delightful Mark Blankenship asked me to write a guest post on his blog, The Critical Condition. And here it is! It’s a review of the Brian Regan show Dave and I attended on Sunday. (It’s also probably the longest piece of writing I’ve done since I quit TWoP.)

How Dare They?!

I don’t believe in God, but if I did, this would be my Satanic Verses.

FUCK No On Prop 8

Tara Ariano — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 02:23:56 +0000

As incredible as Tuesday night was, the passage of the hateful Proposition 8 in California really did cast a pall on what could have been a completely jubilant night (as did the success of similar ballot measures in Arizona and Florida, though I won’t front — I don’t know anyone who lives there so those didn’t hit me as hard). I can’t say it any better than Eric did, and I wish I could have seen the protest at the Mormon Temple last night — but for those who are in California feeling shitty, you can keep up to date with planned Prop 8 protests here, you can donate to the efforts to invalidate Prop 8 here, and you can find out how to support LGBT equality everywhere here. Above all, stay mad. Remember how mad we all were this time four years ago? That’s what made Howard Dean come up with his 50 state strategy, and then in 2006 the Democrats took back the House and the Senate, and then three days ago this happened.

And if all else fails, just don’t pay your taxes. That’s pretty hard for a government to ignore — especially yours.

Where Did It All Go Ron?

Poor Ron Paul! If that sad little punim didn’t break my heart, the sadder little black sneakers would. At least he’ll have probably learned from this experience that he can be done running for President, unlike some people.

Thank you, Naked Cowboy, for sharing your wisdom.
