Yep, another predictable result. Why don’t I just raise a few Shoggoths and take over the world? It would save everybody time.

Wow! You really know your stuff! You’re clearly a professor at Miskatonic University, or an individual who has travelled to Yuggoth or the Dreamlands and one time or another. A copy of the Necronomicon sits on your end table, and whether you use it for good or evil, you have an excellent command of the information and rituals within.This is the top-scoring category.

sexiest man alive George Clooney, metaphor man

Posted on by

sexiest mystery man aliveIs there anything this man can’t get away with? Ripping poor little Teri Hatcher‘s heart to shreds? Spurning Julia Roberts? Posing for Vanity Fair with models an even foot taller and two decades younger? Being compared with the immortal Cary Grant? That mullet from the Facts of Life?

Nothing.

Including this. Yes, as Gawker reports in their beloved Gawker Stalker feature, sexiest man alive George Clooney simply makes literal what so many generations of men have done only metaphorically.

He gives the girl shit.

George Clooney and Steven Soderbergh were dining at the Post House restuarant tonight (Wednesday). They were discussing and laughing about the movie Broke Back Mountain. George Clooney offered his stool to an attractive blonde who was at the bar.

You’re the raincoaster? I don’t read many other blogs because I simply don’t have the time, but every time I’ve looked at yours I’ve enjoyed it. Great stuff.

Gen. JC Christian, patriot
