WOTD followup

As a follow up to Word of the Day’s post, I’d like to throw in my 2 cents and vent a little frustration. I’m really sick of all the anti-American a-holes out there who are willing to sacrifice the ideals of America, everything America stands for, and everything that makes us great so they don’t have to be afraid of the boogy man.

If you don’t like the fact that in America, you should be willing to die as a sacrifice to lady liberty every single day, then maybe you should leave the country and go somewhere safer. The patriots didn’t lay down their lives so that we could be safe at whatever the cost. Patrick Henry didn’t say give me a tall soy latte or give me skim if you’re out of soy. He said give me liberty or give me death. If you aren’t willing to die for your ideals, then what are you willing to die for?

Anyways, two other points: Firstly, I really want to see Samuel L. Jackson as Patrick Henry, saying that famous line punctuated by a forceful SLJ mothafucker. Secondly, this was my favorite comment, props be to Foxwood:

Let’s go surfin’ now
Everybody’s learnin’ how
Do some waterboardin’ with me!

Real World: Brooklyn

Gawker does it again! They made me laugh, this time by asking questions of the Real World kids that are ridiculously inappropriate. For example:

4. To the cast: Have you read Joseph O’Neill’s new novel Netherland yet? If so, do you agree with New Yorker critic James Wood’s assessment that it is “perhaps one of the most important post-colonial novels of our time”

Beeteedubs, I saw the Real World cast on Halloween. One of them was dressed like Heath Ledger, with a clearly pro makeup job. It was really well done. That’s the closest I’ve ever been to celebrity, except the time I was eating a Cinnabon outside the Ronald Regan Building when Hillary came out. Yes, to think the then first lady saw me with sticky, goopy hands. An adolescent fantasy come true, I can tell you that much.
