This is fucking insane. Anti-psychotics for ADD (I guess CNN didn't get the memo that we've dropped an 'H' in there, now)? That doesn't sound so good. I'm no expert in pharmacology or psychiatry (clearly, even though it's bullshit anyway), but from what I understand, anti-psychotics are pretty hardcore medications. The side-effects can be awful, even if they are effective in treating what they're intended for. Shit like schizophrenia. But ADD? In kids? Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Assholes. Suddenly the "fuck it, let's just pump them full of Ritalyn and get them out of our hair" school of thought doesn't seem so bad. I don't even want to know what kind of Christina Aguilera monsters kids would see on these meds.
This is a few days old, but apparently Isaac Hayes isn't as cool as I thought he was. Yes, I know it's lame to dismiss someone so easily, but c'mon -- it's fucking Scientology. This does not detract from his work on Shaft or South Park, but I can definitely make fun of his potato chip commercials with a clear conscience now.

Merriam-Webster appropriately defines "pulchritude" as "physical comeliness"

ravishing virgin and innocent little pulchritudinous pussies

I had never thought to describe any pussies as "pulchritudinous," but I like that. Bonus points for alliterating in this situation.
If you've been paying marginal attention, you heard about Russ Feingold introducing a measure to censure Bush over the whole NSA wiretapping thing. Of course, this is completely useless on his part, and it has given Republicans a chance to rehash all their bullshit lies and excuses ("It's legal because we say it is!"). In their "American Voices" section, The Onion, as always, found a way to describe the situation perfectly:

"This political move is like when I call my parents when I know no one will answer just so I can say I called."

This metaphor is, in fact, a succinct way of describing the feelings I've been trying to convey on the Democrats for a long time now, but of course The Onion's writers are geniuses and I am not.

"all grown up" lolicon

What? God damn it. All grown up? Lolicon? That doesn't make any sense. By definition, one can't be a Lolita if they're all grown up. Don't you fucking people read, whether it be Nabokov or manga? This tells you how far we've fallen here at Fe, when even these people are fucking up like this.
