A small band of brave men struggle against enormous odds, battling a superior force, and though ultimately they are defeated their sacrifice becomes a source of inspiration and hope that rings out like a clarion call through the pages of history. But enough about the Mighty Ducks. 300, in contrast, is about a gang of shirtless and immoral baby-killing idiots who hack up a larger group of idiots on some cliff in Greece a couple of thousand years ago. To a soundtrack of ersatz Nine Inch Nails.

Starring Gerard Butler as a shrieking inarticulate Scotsman (so in other words "a Scotsman"), 300 delivers on its promise to be the bloodiest movie since Carrie 2: Carrie vs. Saw. (Though it should be noted that in lieu of blood, 300 utilized digital globs of diluted road tar.)

To make it a fair fight, Mike enlisted the help of battle veterans Bill Corbett and Kevin Murphy. 3 against the 300! This...is...RIFFTRAX!

Egad. I must watch this.

Anon Evil, they have Harry Potter, too! We gotta get together and do this thang sometime.

Yes plz!

I thought about not ref...but I want to give Drew and Nat their due, yknow?  They make their living off of it, and the advert is so random (I mean, srsly, who's "marriedtothesea"?)...but then I've been wearing their t-shirts around town and getting "what's that?" and "explain that!" from all these moms at the schools.

There's this one:  You have cholera.  With this little blue pill thingie:

that is on this orange background that I wear...drives people nuts.

They also like my "Exercising Blows" t-shirt from toothpastefordinner.

I wore my "Meaning" toothpastefordinner shirt today.
"What's the meaning of this?!" "Oh, it's a pronoun"

I know LMNO and Suu, AND I know TOG--I sent him a bizarre piece of interoffice mail the other day.

Well you DEFINITELY don't know my full name. Or where I live. Or anything else about me at all. So there!

Me too!

ECH, if you can fit a Camry in your ass and successfully pull it out again, plz feel free to consider it an ass-bead.

I like the spots in the second one.  Pretty!

It's THE Cone! ( http://store.babeland.com/vibrators/the-cone )
Reviews include: "Ive been eyeing the Cone ever since it came in. it appeals to my modernist side, reminding me of I.M. Pei's glass sculpture at the Louvre" and "it's really, really really fun to sit on!"

Which word?

I am trying to make a big long funny thread with lots of one liner memes.

part of My Mother's Nipples by Robert Haas


"He wanted to get out of his head," she said,
"so I told him to write about his mother's nipples."

The cosmopolitan's song on this subject:

Alors! les nipples de ma mère!

The romantic's song

What could be more fair
than les nipples de ma mère?

The utopian's song

I will freely share
les nipples de ma mère.

The philosopher's song

Here was always there
with les nipples de ma mère

The capitalist's song

Fifty cents a share

The saint's song

Lift your eyes in prayer

The misanthrope's song

I can scarcely bear

The melancholic's song

They were never there,
les nipples de ma mère.
They are not anywhere.

The indigenist's song

And so the boy they called Loves His Mother's Tits
Went into the mountains and fasted for three days.
On the fourth he saw a red-tailed hawk with broken wings,
On the fifth a gored doe in a ravine, entrails
Spilled onto the rocks, eye looking up at him
From the twisted neck. All the sixth day he was dizzy
And his stomach hurt. On the seventh he made three deep cuts
In the meat of his palm. He entered the pain at noon
And an eagle came to him crying three times like the mewling
A doe makes planting her hooves in the soft duff for mating
And he went home and they called him Eagle Three Times after that.

The regionalist's song

Los Pechos.
Rolling oak woodland between Sierra pines
and simmering valey.

Orson Scott Card (Ender's Game) got me started, ironically.

The trilogy or the first one?  I just can't help but think the first one was just plain old great sci-fi.

The first one is definitely plain old great sci-fi. The whole series got me thinking, but EG is what really stuck with me.
