Mashed Potatoes

So got an email from my mom to all the kids in the family asking what we're all bringing for Thanksgiving. I replied "Mashed potatoes" with this attached.

I know, nothing new. We've all seen it even before everything you've ever wanted to see, and more, has been put on youtube. Remember when if you wanted to see that clip you had to watch it Saturday night on Cartoon Planet? Good times. Working for entertainment. Not like kids these days.

Anyway, I was on the youtube and found a recipe for ghetto potatoes and yak-yak.

Fo' shizzle, Nephew.

That's What The Tailor Said

So I was protesting out in front of the Banana Republic at Old Orchard mall and then Surjeet called me and said "dude you left your Modern Action Club card at the Kite's house, but don't worry I picked it up for you, I'll meet you at Bumpkin's...or do you wanna just grab some nachos when we get to the Skatium?".

Annd Scene

Flash forward 11 years to the present day and THIS VIDEO

First off - that's def the fireside right? The crowd shots certainly are.
Who cares? Me, that's who - any opportunity to find decade-old goofy-ska-dancing footage of someone we know is precious and should not be squandered.
So get to freeze framing some grainy youtube people, this is for the common good.


Second - Joan Axthelm....sweet sweet Joan Axthelm...She's the backup singer on the left. I would have burned my bomber jacket for her. Couldn't find anything current but want to know her phone number and exactly where she was on Dec. 3rd, 2000? Me too.

And...now that the previous link has breached the subject...

Wasn't that guy's name Barack and didn't he LOVE the Socialisms ?
I knew FOX was right.

Yes, I know this contains nary more than a youtube video and is relevant to only a handful of people and someone here won't like that.
But I know that Driz also happens to spin those old tunes on occasion, so maybe I'll get a pass.

Typealyzer

via wonkette ...

Some web device that analyzes what kind of person or people write a blog. I have no idea what the criteria is or what they actually look at while "Typealyzing" a blog.
So naturally I tossed the ol' Bluntest into the wood chipper to see what would come out ...
ESFP - The Performers

The entertaining and friendly type. They are especially attuned to pleasure and beauty and like to fill their surroundings with soft fabrics, bright colors and sweet smells. They live in the present moment and don´t like to plan ahead - they are always in risk of exhausting themselves.

The enjoy work that makes them able to help other people in a concrete and visible way. They tend to avoid conflicts and rarely initiate confrontation - qualities that can make it hard for them in management positions.

A brain chart analysis (swear to god) of Bluntest contributors shows predominance in the "Sensing" section of the brain while writing. And while there was spillover into the "Practical" and "Feeler" areas, the "Thinking" area of the brain was untouched. Huzah! Naturally I'm writing this while baking cookies and wearing silk pajamas within an egg shaped pod painted neon green.

Burritos By Number

I think I posted awhile ago about fivethirtyeight.com, a website monitoring the election and breaking down polls and what-not by using ridiculous math to give the chances of how things might've turned out? Well, the guy who runs that site, Nate Silver, is a Chicagoan from Wicker Park who also rates local taquerias! Is there anything this cat can't do?

Intergalactic Evanston Internet Shout Out!

So now that the election is over, wonkette is having some rough times finding things to post. So they are reduced to posting shit from the Skokie Review (5th one-liner) about an old lady in Evanston who kept dead bodies in her house for a couple decades. The good people at the Skokie Review probably had a good time this morning trying to figure out why there were so many hits to their website. And apparently none of the commenters, except one, like Evanston.

By the way, didn't Actor used to live pretty close to there?

Ol' Pussy Teeth

Vagina dentata is Latin for toothed vagina. Various cultures have folk tales about women with toothed vaginas, frequently told as cautionary tales warning of the dangers of sex with strange women.

The best cautionary tale of "not letting your dick get bit off and your body fed to tigers" I've read yet!

Witty commentary evades me as I have no idea what to even make of this ...

oh guilty pleasures ....

Back on the video tip.

Yeah. Not guilty pleasures because of any preconceived notion of what kind of music someone like me should like. No, mostly cause these songs epitomize the uber-slick image that record companies push on people with less constitution and greater impressionability. Plus the misogyny is pretty out of control on all of these, even the one sung by a chick. That being said, shit, I love these jams ... Can't embed cause their parent companies won't allow it ...

JiggaMan don't dig 99% of this guy's stuff but this is the JiggaJam. Like how i did that?

I remember waiting for this to come on the radio back in the day when I had a car with a tape player that didn't work. Circa 2001? I think that's about when this tune came out. Produced by Dre, so it's hard to argue. Video is so contrived though. Can we put a moratorium on videos that follow the "Rich people having party. Urban/poor/different people feel slighted. Urban/poor/different people invade party. Everyone has good time except for one stuckup person after realizing that urban/poor/different people have the BEST parties, The End."

Ha. Yeah, a great example of what "Real Southern Girls" look like. And not exploitative at all. Glad Pharrell got rid of that mustache though. Oh yeah, and in case you forgot, Mystikal is in jail for 6 years for makin' his hair stylist give him a BJ. A true lover of women. Still like that beat though.

A Post By the Baron

Smoking pot will ruin your life, or won't

And you can smoke pot in Michigan, if you need it to live a life that the smoking pot will ruin

amazing

We are all feeling pretty good about this election, because for the first time in a long time, the intelligent people won out over the fools.

But never underestimate the power of stupid.

Bong-bing-bong

So I was reading this article entitled "Bong-bing-booong". I think I was mislead about the subject matter of the actual article by the headline. So on to related items:

Next time you're at the Grateful Dead SATs, drop the word hubble bubble which is the sound that a water pipe makes. It also refers to the water pipe itself. Which is some slang we should be busting out.

Unsafe sex.

Safe sex.

Sound advice.

Wolf Blitzer, you're my only hope

You're a little short for a storm trooper (NSFW)

Pimpernel and I watched the electoral version of a slam-dunk on a grainy little 13" TV perched atop a picture booth at a real old school Chicago bar called Wee Gees. Good Times! There was many people and shuffle board! Huzzah!
