• Lowering The Bar

  
  Debsweb — Authority: 122
  What kind of creep do you have to be to break in to a familys home three days after they were killed in a car crash?  Its bad enough that the parents and two kids were broadsided by a drunk driver who ran a red light at seventy miles an hour as they were returning from a family vacation in Hawaii, but it takes a ...

• Thats It, Ive Had It. Enough With the Neverending 2012 Speculating. Its 2009 For Fuxake!

  
  Library Grape — Authority: 139
  I dont know why it just dawned on me but I am really freaking irritated that so much of the chattering classes time is being spent endlessly nibbling at the speculation apple over which Republican douchebiscuit is jockeying most effectively for a 2012 nomination. Its 2009 for fucks sake! Do I seriously have to ...

• Zee’s pet peeves

  
  Hits and Mrs. — Authority: 116
  After a very serious post, I’m shifting the tone to something lighter. I now know two things that Zee hates the most: cleaning her nose and changing her dirty nappies in public. The nose-cleaning thing isn’t exactly new. When she was still a couple of months old, she didn’t react when we cleaned her nose with ...

• Tiger Woods Car Crash

  
  Jim Kenzie's The Driver's Seat — Authority: 123
  I dont care why Tiger Woods was leaving his house at 3 a.m. I dont care whether Tiger Woods has a girlfriend on the side or not. I dont even care about what Tiger Woods does for a living, subscribing as I do to theory (which may or may not be Mark Twains) that golf is "a good walk spoiled". The only thing I care ...

• Punctuation Saves Lives!

  
  Putting the Fun in DysFUNctional — Authority: 126
  I confess. Im sort of anal about punctuation and grammar. Not to the point where I expect perfection. Nor do I deliver perfection. We all make mistakes, and this is a blog, not our college thesis. But there are some things that just drive me insane! I love the title of this book. Its based on this joke: ...

• Deserving

  
  DoubleDeej — Authority: 100
  One of my absolute least favorite words is “deserve.” I know, it’s not a word that people frequently think of as being negative, but to me it is, and very much so. With very few exceptions, I usually cringe when I hear people say they “deserve” something. Let me back up a bit. I believe that everything ...

  Gleamings from the Dawn — Authority: 115
  I had one of my attacks today. You know the one where I start foaming at the mouth because someone is dancing on one of my pet peeves. Today, it was a "Lets blame the dead old guy for the current state of things." There are a lot of people who blame Regardie, Crowley, Mathers, etc. for the state of Golden Dawn today. ...

• Glenn Beck announces a ‘March on Washington’ on Anniversary of MLK Speech

  
  All About Race — Authority: 126
  You have to hand it to Glenn Beck. He is a wizard at whipping up controversy and, therefore, publicity. Beck’s latest dangling shiny object comes in the form of an announcement that in order to support the sales of his upcoming book which will outline a 100 year plan for America, he is organizing a gathering on the ...

• How Do You Get Rid Of A Nice Guy?

  
  Fit Darcie — Authority: 123
  I hate it when people talk to me at the gym. I don’t go to one of those chain gyms trying to come off as a social club. Mine is one of those 24 hour gyms where the dank is part of the allure. There are very few women who work out there, likely because they are intimidated by the place. What I’m getting at, is that ...

  Bob Herbert: We need a revitalized industrial policy, including the creation of whole new industries, if American families are to prosper in the coming decades.

• Why I don’t blog about politics, the news (and other things that makes me want to kill people and break stuff.)

  
  The Habitation of Justice — Authority: 127
  I think the title explains it all. Generally I pride myself for having a high threshold of tolerance for many things in life that other people would normally make their pet peeves. Politics, however, is not one of them. Indeed, the mere suggestion of anything even remotely passing a positive remark about Captain ...
