Writing at Slate, Jacob Weisberg realizes the horrifying truth that I’ve been pounding the drum on for a month now — CONservatives are idiot proles: The case for voting for Romney goes as follows: Of the Republican presidential candidates, he is the only one with any real chance of defeating President Obama in November.

by Ferdinand Bardamu 02.01.2012
Thumbnail image for Time-Saving Predictions for February’s Republican Presidential Primaries

In yesterday’s post, I left out a prediction on how the Florida primary results would go based on the South Carolina results. I figured that Newt Gingrich would win big in the rural, northern part of the state, which demographically still resembles the South. Gingrich dominated rural South Carolina, with Mitt Romney only eking out [...]

Thumbnail image for How the Rise of Newt Gingrich Proves That CONservatism is for the Proles

A few people have been coming around to the thesis that CONservatives are motivated mostly by spite and hatred of LIEbrals, and not by any ideological or moral principles. And when I say “a few people,” I really mean “Chuck Rudd,” because his post was the only one I bothered to bookmark. Following Newt Gingrich’s [...]

Why Cohabitation is (Generally) for Chumps

Thumbnail image for Why Cohabitation is (Generally) for Chumps

The blogger formerly known as Roissy muses on how cohabitation provides the same benefits as marriage, for men at least: The reasoning is simple: the pro-marriage studies are conflating the benefit of living with someone under marital contract with freely living with someone who loves you. Sex, love and affectionate companionship don’t feel any more [...]

“Hey, doesn’t she kinda look like John McCain’s wife?” our bassist blurted out as we lay on the couch drinking and watching Newt Gingrich’s post-New Hampshire speech. We were taking a break from working on new songs and our frontman/singer’s wife (and the band’s violist) had flipped on CNN in the meantime. He was hardly [...]

In Praise of Self-Loathing

Thumbnail image for In Praise of Self-Loathing

Accusing someone of being a self-loathing [fill-in-the-blank] is one of the most popular insults on the Internet, almost up there with Godwin’s Law in its predictability. The minute someone inveighs against a particular social class that we all know to be annoying and stupid, that someone is almost immediately called a self-loathing member of that class, [...]

Obligatory New Hampshire Primary Post

I’d rather have my nails yanked out then spend any more time on this glorified pageantry, so I’ll keep this brief. When Ron Paul came in third in the Iowa caucus last week, a lot of alt-righters immediately defaulted to doom and gloom mode, declaring the end of Paul’s campaign. I believe they’re wrong — [...]

“Hey look — another sucker.” My friend pointed at the kiosk outside of FYE, where a dweeby youngish kid was having his hands washed in a sink.

InFATdels, Meet Your New Friends Ana and Mia

by Ferdinand Bardamu 01.03.2012

There is no God but Allah, blessed be His name, but when it comes to the inFATdels, I’m willing to compromise if it gets them to shed the blubber. Enter the phenomenon of “pro-ana”: Pro-ana refers to the promotion of the eating disorder anorexia nervosa. It is often referred to simply as “ana” and is sometimes personified by anorexics as a [...]
