Fucking Horrible Tattoo of the Day:
“N1H1?” Dyslexic much?
You’d think somebody assigned to the ABC medical news unit would know enough to stop referring to H1N1 as “swine flu”…. God I hate mainstream media…
Having gotten so used to new drugs coming out with wacky names, it seems a heroic service to language that Genentech calls its AIDS vaccine (one of the two that combined to mysteriously work in Thailand)…Aidsvax.
Wrong. Unemployment numbers are stil increasing. The number of new unemployment claims is falling meaning the rate of increase in unemployment is falling. But unemployment is still increasing.
Slowdown in increase is not reduction. It’s slower increase.
The big ship is starting to turn but hasn’t turned yet.
@4: I’m failing to see why that can’t mean “down.”

That Florida cracker is HOT.
#6, “unemployment” can mean “unemployment claims”.
Perhaps that is why you ‘contribute’ anonymously.
A friend of mine who was born and raised in Tennessee has a tattoo of the shape of the state on his neck. When people ask him what it is, he says its a “birthmark”. Yuk yuk.

“RFLMAO” can also mean “Wow, what a dumb fuck you are…”
Moon water!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but if I destroy all the puppies in Afghanistan, they’re gonna lock me up and throw away the key…
Not PUPPIES, you great fool! POPPIES! The opium seed flowers!
We can do that; we don’t even need to have a reason. All right, let’s do the same thing, but with poppies.
Hmph. I can grow all the opium poppies I want right in my own yard. It’s perfectly legal. I’ll bet you guys can too.
They do make pretty flowers.
But, practical advice, you have to water them every day or two, set your spray wand on mist.
@13, nice channeling of Bill Murray there. 😉
and that tattoo looks like the guy is advertising erectile dysfunction.
