Cat-Scratch Fever.
Cute, cudduwy, sweet, fuzzy wittle
KILLING MACHINES!
I wuv you kitty!
@31, Drowning blah blah. Thank Bastet they kill varmints! They keep Seattle's rat population under control, you ungrateful fnarf.
But also, they do eat birds and mice, I've seen them do so. They'll do that if they don't get fed by their owners, or if they're feral.
Speaking of feral cats, did you know that 80% of their diet is BUGS? Yep. Beetles in particular. Easy to catch, nutritious, plentiful.
Speaking of cat food:
Ever wonder why we don't have Mouse, or Bird, or Beetle-flavored cat food? WTF is up with "Chicken" or "Beef". Cats don't eat cows and chickens.
That shit is seriously fucked up.

Getting "Koodies".
"Koodie", now there's a neologism with LEGS, baby! That shit will stick like strawberry jam on a dog! Fuck, I love awesome, useless words that sound like something pornographic!
FAIL.

More on the Black China Girl, Lou Jing.
Yes, hybrid vigor indeed... she's super beautiful!
As to chinese racism: One myth I've heard to support their racist superiority is that when 'god' made people he threw them onto different corners of the Earth. Whites weren't thrown close enough to the sun, and are (essentially) undercooked. Blacks were thrown too closely, and are burnt, but the Chinese were thrown to the exact spot, and are properly toasted.
It's as useful a racist myth as any, and kinda humorous I think!

A Correction.
If Maker's Mark (while appropriately delicious) is anything more than middle-class booze, then I'm an ultra-top-secret double-agent trapped on an island for ex-spies that need to be silenced and debriefed! :)

The Untolerant
As we know,
There are tolerant tolerances.
There are things we know we tolerate.
We also know
There are tolerant intolerants.
That is to say
We tolerate some things
We do not want to tolerate.
But there is also intolerant intolerance,
The ones we don't tolerate
With tolerance.

Do Guys Make Passes At Girls Who Wear....
@47"but a painted depiction on a tshirt? I'd wear the fuck out of that bidness."
There's a sci-fi story --by John Shirley, I think-- where people wear "X-shirts" when they want to hook up for sex.. and X-shirt, is of course, a t-shirt with a depiction of their own genitals on them. Cuts through the signal-to-noise problem of post-post-modern sexual negotiations.

Those are unequivocally awesome! And yes, I think having a accurate representation lingam necklace would be fantastic too. I wonder if the artist would be willing to branch out? We men need new ways to celebrate our sexual power too, y'know. Happy Heteroween and all that Dan said.

Today in Neologisms.
I'd like to propose that brownbacking be amended to mean more than just unsafe, unprotected anal sex with multiple partners... but (and this is gross) unprotected anal sex with someone who specifically has faeces in hir rectum such that anal sex will produce copious amounts of santorum, and, well, actual poo mess.
Ugh. Gross.
Nasty nasty gross little brownbackers! YeeeUCK!

The Procession for Officer Brenton.
@11 -- The reaction of the people I saw standing along Madison Ave (and some were clearly there to represent, not just walk-commuters like me) was that of respectful silence. I felt it to.
I saw no bike cops.
The police cars from Redmond are fancy jacked-up Mustangs.
This was the most cops I've seen since the WTO and the DNC in Chicago, '96.
A street-smart friend of mine opined that the shooting sounded like a gang initiation.
The cop that died shouldn't have. He was a human being. R.I.P.
That's all I've got.
