Entitlement and Race Relations: the quote o’ the day

Rosa Parks

“They had the original bus that Rosa Parks sat in, the one that sparked off the civil rights protests. It’s beautifully preserved. I was going to sit in her seat but there was a black woman sitting there at the time. I thought better of asking her to move.”

An anonymous but sensible Detroit conference-goer quoted in the Guardian

Brian Atene: don’t cry for me, Chris Crocker

Or, do. Don’t hold back, bro. Let it out. We’re all upset Atene isn’t releasing any new vids.

At last, YouTube Superstars Brian Atene and Chris Crocker: together again for the first time!

via Defamer, and btw did you know that the heretofor dignified FFE is one of Chris Crocker’s neighbors? Oh yes, thereby hangs a tale, no doubt. By its pink frosted acrylic nails.

[UPDATE: POOPYCACA: the eedjut took it down.
I post it and within half an hour, he’s kilt it. Did we ever go out? No reason I ask…]

Here’s your consolation prize: an apparently naked, fully mature

Calls for Cthulhu #6: Special Guest Star Xenu!

It’s time for another episode of everyone’s favorite call-in show, and ohhhhh, by Shub-Niggurath, this is a good one! It’s not every day that you get to hear from Xenu himself! Wonder what Tom Cruise thinks of this?

Stacy Keach, Jedi Master Chef

Stacy Keach, Jedi Master Chef

Yes, Stacy Keach is a man of many talents. You may be familiar with him as an actor; you may have heard of his charity work; you may know him from his colourful personal history, but are you aware that this veritable Renaissance Man is also a qualified Jedi Master Chef?

Indeed, in the crowded ranks of celebrity Jedi Chef wannabes, only a rare few make it through to the revered rank of Jedi Master Chef. The years of training, the discipline necessary to wield a lightsaber or boning knife equally with not only a straight face, but a threatening one, the dogged pursuit of the scoundrel known as “Santa Clause”, and the ability to instantly recall the correct method for preparing non-weepy custard, are accomplishments beyond the ability of all but a rare, ascetic few.

Undertaking the way of the Jedi Chef is the choice of those remarkable individuals whose paths wind through tangled underbrush, dark valleys, and science fiction conventions.
