Zombietime does it again with a great recap of the latest "Peace" protest in San Franscisco.

One of my favorite parts comes near the end, where he has a series of photos of a Radical Romeo checking out a Jihadi Juliette's ass, and then proceeding to try to pick this Peace of Ass up. It seems to work.

Lefty chicks are easy. We will never be able to match that advantage of theirs.

Oh, and of course, for all the talk of "peace," of course many of them hold signs explicitly endorsing the intifada, the forcible destruction of Israel, etc.

Lefties are so busy spotting "Orwellian double-talk" from the American government they never notice their own.

Thanks to Craig.

Great:

U.S. college graduates are facing the best job market since 2001, with business, computer, engineering, education and health care grads in highest demand, a report by an employment consulting firm showed on Monday.

"We are approaching full employment and some employers are already dreaming up perks to attract the best talent," said John Challenger, chief executive of Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

In its annual outlook of entry-level jobs, Challenger, Gray & Christmas said strong job growth and falling unemployment makes this spring the hottest job market for America's 1.4 million college graduates since the dot-com collapse in 2001.

Cowbell? You betcha. Everyone's getting in on the act.

That Golden Cowbell has only been rung five times since the nation's founding. It is one of the most coveted artifacts of the Illuminati/Freemason/Skull-and-Bonesmen who run this nation, and it is only rung when we're about to have a national economic block party.

Thanks to Greg for that pic.

Or did a Scientologist "monitor" issue the condemnation and notice of quitting "for him"?

Apparently Isaac was asked about this episode before:

AV Club: They did just do an episode that made fun of your religion, Scientology. Did that bother you?

Hayes: Well, I talked to Matt [Stone] and Trey [Parker] about that. They didn't let me know until it was done. I said, 'Guys, you have it all wrong. We're not like that. I know that's your thing, but get your information correct, because somebody might believe that [expletive], you know?' But I understand what they're doing. I told them to take a couple of Scientology courses and understand what we do. [Laughs.]

And this statement was issued when Hayes was/is recovering from a recent stroke.

Thanks to Eric.

Do these people have anything better to do than obsess about us?

I was never cool in high school. Or college. Or, like, ever. I think for one week in seventh grade I fit in okay, and then that all fell apart. And so here I am. Blogging.

But at least being an American gives me the feeling of being the cool kid in school, always feared, always secretly admired, and always, always talked about. Mostly bad stuff to cover up the secret admiration. And the great thing is there are all these dorks and gaywads -- like Canada, Germany, France, 90% of the Islamic world, etc. -- who do very little but obsess over our every action and comment. And yet we think very little of all about them, and are in fact barely even aware of their existance.

Except, you know, in the case of 90% of the Islamic world, which will not stop picking fights with us. We always kick their ass, but they're always back the next day, because they're insecure chumps with something to prove.

The world is a high school and America is the coolest, richest, most popular and most likely to succeed. And everyone, of course, just can't get over that.

A Liberal senator has replied to a family in Minnesota upset about Canada's seal hunt with a letter denouncing the United States for executing prisoners at home and killing people in Iraq.

The McLellan family had written to Canadian senators to say they cancelled a vacation in Canada because of the hunt, which they called "horrible" and "inhumane," Montreal's La Presse reports.

In her response, Senator Céline Hervieux-Payette said that what she finds horrible is "the daily massacre of innocent people in Iraq, the execution of prisoners - mainly blacks - in American prisons, the massive sale of handguns to Americans, the destabilization of the entire world by the American government's aggressive foreign policy, etc."

She said Americans are not in a position to criticize others. "They must start to look at their own behaviour, the permanent heightening of the planet's insecurity since the election of Bush," she told La Presse.

In a worrisome development, seals are beginning to plot terrorist actions against the United States, as that is the only way they can imagine they can get the dominant liberal Canadian political class on their side, perhaps even getting deemed "political refugees" as Al Qaedists are now.

Fortunately, as of yet these plans mostly consist of balancing balls on their noses; they're still "brainstorming" how these balls can be used as Weapons of Mass Destruction. Other plans involve scrod.

It's a tired theme of mine, but I just can't get over how so many people have turned politics into little more than a system of self-validation. You're a good person because you "feel" x; you're a good person because you say y. Most of liberalism is little more than a way to experience the satisfying emotional frisson of feeling superior to someone else.

And yet they'll yap all day about "Bible thumpers" who wear their pieties on their sleeves to show that they're holier than thou. For crying out loud, Fred Phelps could learn a thing or too from these people.

Thanks to Darwin's Moustache.

They're all annoying, I know. But not like these.

The big innovation in these alarm clocks is that they will either require you to perform some task -- like putting together puzzle pieces it just shot out of its top -- before they will stop. Or they will begn moving and hiding and even flying around the room, requiring you to get out of bed to stop the alarm.

When you hit Clocky’s snooze button, he will roll off of the nightstand, fall to the floor, and run around the room, searching for a place to hide. When the alarm sounds again, you have to get out of bed to find it and turn it off. He finds a new spot everyday, “kind of like a hide-and-seek game”. Clocky Official Site.

One alarm, shaped like a person, more or less, won't stop ringing until you actually begin to strangle it. That sounds like a plan.

Thanks to Craig.

Since Ace already posted about Spore, I would be remiss if I did not chime in as well.

Will Wright, the guy who also did Sim City and the Sims, is the mastermind behind Spore. I am more interested than I was at first thanks to my regular listening to the Gaming Steve podcast. Gaming Steve (a.k.a. Steven Glicker) started his site/podcast a year ago and from its inception he has been covering every last little detail on Spore that can be found, and now even Will Wright is posting in his forums.

Gaming Steve is a good, professional podcast, with a wide ranging scope from retro reviews of old games (his Baldur's Gate 2 review was great!) and new games on the current platforms (including Japan imports for the Nintendo DS). I listen to it each time, and is a mainstay of my gaming podcast listening, which helps pass the time doing cardio at the gym, along with the ever polite and Xbox Live guru Major Nelson.

On a more geeky and drool-inducing note, a genuine killer app is coming out for the Xbox 360 tomorrow, namely Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. If you are an AD&D geek, this should fulfill your geeky needs for a long, long time, between the dungeon crawling, questing, monster killing, thieving, and more. There are somewhere around 200 possible dungeons, and estimates of game play are over 200 hours (if you want to do everything).

Why, yes, I have it on pre-order. Why do you ask?

You've got to read this.

Wow.

He supports the troops, though. He says so multiple times, even as he calls them stupid and derisively notes that many are (pardon the profanity) not even college graduates.

I'm sorry to use that vicious obscenity-- "not even a college graduate." I've avoided it throughout out most of the life of this blog, not wanting to unduly upset readers, but I'm compelled to write it out here, in order to accurately recount Mr. Belzer's words.

I apologize. I will try not use this hateful expression again.
