Still unsettled from the hot springs foursome with the overweight desert couple, Jim and Jane drove in uneasy silence.

“We shouldn’t have done that,” Jane whispered again.

“We shouldn’t have done that,” Jim agreed. He thought about the hairy maw between to the woman’s legs and the unfortunate glimpse he caught of the man stubby penis being awkwardly jabbed into Jane’s mouth as she cried.

“Stop the car,” Jane said. Jim grunted.

“STOP THE CAR!” Jane screamed.

Jim slammed on the brakes and the Subaru screeched to a halt. Jane scrambled out and began vomiting, bug parts and rank, yellowed semen spraying forcefully. Jim noticed dully that her heaving was oddly timed to the beeping the car was making for the door being ajar.

“Get it all out, baby,” he said. He ignored the rush of blood into his sore penis as he listened to her. He had hidden his emetophilia their entire marriage.

Jane stood up and spat and gagged and then spat again.

“Do we have any water?” she asked hoarsely. Jim rummaged behind her seat until he came up with a bottle.

“Sorry, it’s warm,” he said, leaning over to hand it to her.

With shaking hands, she got the top off and took a long drink. She turned to the side as the water came right back up.

“Just wash out your mouth, maybe,” Jim said. He rode out the glare she shot back at him with a weak smile.

Jane rinsed and spit and rinsed and spit. Jim ground the heel of his hand into his crotch, forcing his erection down the leg of his pants. She threw the empty bottle into the scrub by the side of the road and got back in.

“You OK?” Jim asked.

“No, but I’ll live,” she said. “Drive. Just drive.” She pulled the door shut and the dome light went off.

Jim took off too fast, the tires spinning in the loose gravel and dust of the road shoulder before the car jumped forward onto the road. They rode in a grim silence.

After a few miles, Jim ventured: “Scuba diving and falconry. Logrolling and bug sushi. Lots of new things we tried today.”

Jane coughed and shook in her seat.

“What?”

“I know something you didn’t try,” Jane said laughing.

Jim laughed too.

“It tasted worse coming up than going down,” Jane said.

“Don’t try and tell me anything about something tasting worse,” Jim said. Jane howled with laughter.

“I’m going to brush my teeth for a week when we get home,” he said.

She waved at him to stop because she was laughing so hard and slapped playfully at his arm.

“Oh god,” she said, leaning over to hug his arm when she got her laughter under control, “I think peed a little.” She rubbed his thin chest through his shirt.

“It’s getting dark,” she said.

“The day of trying new things is over,” Jim said sadly.

She sat up and kissed his cheek. “It doesn’t have to be,” she said.

“It doesn’t?” he asked in mock innocence. He looked down at her, but her eyes were locked on the road ahead.

“Hold on,” she said and jerked the wheel to the left with her free hand. There was a meaty thump from the front bumper.

“What the fuck?” Jim shouted and hit the brakes. “What was that?”

“A coyote, I think,” she said. She ran her hand down his faded erection as the car stopped and then trailed it along him as she undid her seat belt and slipped out of the Subaru.

“Where are you going?” he yelled but she only laughed.

He put the car in park and looked ahead of them and behind them and didn’t see any lights of approaching cars. He got out and walked back to where she was standing in a pool of light from her cell phone.

“See? I told you it was a coyote,” she said. She sounded giddy.

Jim looked down at the mangled form in the road, bloody and twisted. Its back was bent the wrong way and its belly had burst. More intestines and organs were trailed out on the asphalt than he thought could have fit in the skinny little body. He bent over to get a look at the tongue hanging from mouth. An ear twitched and he jumped back.

“It’s not dead,” he said.

“Nope. He’s a tough little fucker.”

“How is he not dead?”

Jane began to circle the coyote, snapping pictures to get from every angle.

“I guess I should get a rock or something,” Jim said. The bug sushi was threatening to come back up on him as well.

“Don’t bother,” she said. She walked back toward the car and squatted down, trying to capture the trail of blood and viscera leading to the coyote.

“Step away, babe, you’re in the shot,” she said.

“The smell,” Jim said. He stumbled to the brush beside the road and swallowed hard a couple times.

“Go check on the car,” Jane said. “I just want to get a few more shots for Instagram.”

Jim walked away on stiff legs, his hands beginning to shake. He turned on the flashlight app on his phone and inspected the front of the Subaru. There was a streak of blood and half of one of the ears was stuck in the grill.

“Doesn’t look too bad,” Jane said right beside him and he had to stifle a scream. It came out eek eek eek, like rubbing a blown up balloon, and he sat down hard from his squat.

Jane laughed at him and helped him to stand. As he brushed himself off and tried to regain some dignity, she worried the half ear out of the grill.

“You ready?” she asked. He nodded.

After getting back in, he sat for a moment to let his hands stop shaking.

“You OK to drive?” she asked.

“Yeah.”

“The day of new things,” she said as he started driving. She fished around in a sack of trash from the back floorboard and came up with a hamburger wrapper. She folded it around the half ear tenderly and tucked it into her purse.

She snuggled up to him again and kissed his cheek. He could smell the vomit on her breath.

“Let’s find something bigger,” she whispered.

        You didn’t find barfing up fat trailer trash guy cum and bug parts particularly soothing and comforting?

      • Jarflax

        I am amused by the fact that none of the rest of you have commented on the clear implication that this Jane is about to trade emesis enhanced sex to Jim for his cooperation in adding some more bipedal ears to her road kill collection.

    “As yet there is no evidence this person is a Trump supporter or motivated by Trump. And yet “maga bomber” the number one trending topic on Twitter. Weird. I don’t remember “socialist shooter” trending when Scalise was shot.”

    Gratifyingly tame and yet even more disturbing than your usual fare.

    • Tres Cool

      Where did you see ‘tame’ ?
      “…and began vomiting, bug parts and rank, yellowed semen spraying forcefully.”

      • commodious spittoon

        Well, no suppurating sores or gaping cavities or beaked or prehensile sex organs, no child sacrifice, no desiccated corpses dissolving into the surf, no wang totems.

        But yeah, that line made me think of Jennifer Connelly.

      • Not Adahn

        chyme does not actually work that way

      • mr simple

        Hey, no one died and there was only implied weird sex.

    I feel something has changed within me. With each episode of Subaru Horror Theater, I enjoy them more and more. I found this one…very…pleasurable.

    • juris imprudent

      So does anyone know the Dakota quarantine protocol?

      • Jarflax

        ship em to Minot.

  11. Tundra

    I liked it. I think I know that chick.

  12. Lachowsky

    I noticed that the stock market has taken quite a tumble this month, so I took a peek at 401k earlier to see the damage. It was too back. YTD I’m down 3% but am still up 14% over the past 12 months. Whatever. I’m in this for another 30 years or so, so I dont worry too much about short term gains and losses. It is what it is.

    I was curious about why there has been such a great drop, so I did a little googling and read a few articles from different financial publications. Each one pointed to several different factors. Tariffs, the midterms, housing prices, etc.

    I’m sure there is something to all that, but not one of the articles I read mentioned the elephant in the room. The FED. My understanding is that the FED is slowly starting to sell off its TARP assets in an effort to get interest rates back to a more normal level. This is part of the correction for the huge balance sheet expansions it had after 09. There is no mention of this in any of the articles I read. I don’t think that this is an insignifigant factor, and probably should be mentioned as one of the root causes for falling prices. But, what the hell do I know.

    • dorvinion

      Narrative

      The Fed is all wise and all knowing and its actions never have negative consequence.

      • Lachowsky

        I think you hit the nail on the head. It’s out of bounds to criticize the root cause of problems. Our media betters are only allowed to talk about symptoms.

    • MikeS

      Did any of them mention sentiment and tradition? Today was the 89th anniversary of Black Thursday.

    • Hyperion

      The last media story about the great crash… was that last year? Anyway, it supposedly wiped out a year of gains. I typically do not even look at my investment portfolio. But because of that, I took a peep. I must be a genius without trying much, because when I looked, I had not only lost nothing, but gained a lot, even though a little down from the 6 months before that.

      This time I’m not even looking. Who stands to gain right now from media reports saying all our stock gains since Nov 2016 have been wiped out? That’s all I need to know.

        Video…

      • Sean

        The drunken thing often works in my favor. ?

    • Hyperion

      As sad as it is, I’m just happy my wife no longer talks with her insane sister.

      But, don’t let any drunken special other go to waste, get her off the phone now!

      • Sean

        Fwiw, I got the smarter/hotter one. Thank G-d.

      • Hyperion

        Oh, me too. One of the problems with my wife’s crazy sister is that she’s jealous as hell of my wife for being the pretty one.

      • Count Potato

        So you are saying you are open to a three-way?

      • commodious spittoon

        Who wants to disappoint two women at once?

        I keed I keed!

        We all do.

      Ugh..I’m gonna have to weigh in again. She’s on a tear tonight..

    • Lachowsky

      My wifes little brother is a 27 year old who rarely works and still lives with his mom. About once every couple months I get to be sucked into the middle of my wife blowing up on him for not getting his shit together. I feel you man.

    HUZZAH! My BiF box was waiting on the porch this evening; thank you very much to beloved Glib Nephilium. I’m enjoying a delicious Barrel-Aged Blackout Stout from Cleveland’s Great Lakes Brewing Co.

    • Florida Man

      I already drank all my BiF. 🙁 it goes so fast. You got to cherish them.

      • Playa Manhattan

        Burp.

    • Nephilium

      Hope you checked the bottled year on that one before hand…

      • Yusef drives a Kia

        Jealous, at You Neph,

      • Nephilium

        At me? Just because I have a large stock of BA Blackout (it’s named after the great blackout, not the effect it has after you drink several pints of it) from years past in my cellar?

      • l0b0t

        I did and it was yummy, thanks again. It was quite smooth, the Bourbon comes through but was not dominant.

    • Bob Boberson

      From curricular offerings to extracurricular activities, shared milestones to cultural traditions, high schools have been remarkably consistent across the country and even across generations. Many Americans can remember the awkward school dances that memorialized the best (and worst) music of the day. Or bumping past different teenage archetypes on their way to classes. Or the pep fests and rallies they may have loved, or loved to hate. Football games that captured the attention of entire towns.Public schools have also perpetuated racial and economic inequity. But the high school still galvanized a shared, American society. It helped people aspire toward greater equality together, and it used education to bring together diverse interests and people to forge social bonds of support. That effort shaped the American city of the 19th and early-20th centuries. High schools can continue to do this, so long as they can resist being dismantled.

      “Sure they fail at their expressed purpose, but think of the extracurricular activities and other trivialities we’ll lose!”

      • Akira

        Yea, that was a particularly derp-rich sample.

        Social events and sports competitions can never happen without mandatory government schools, apparently.

      • Bob Boberson

        The second school choice is achieved the American landscape will be naught but windswept rumble and cannibalism, this is known.

      • Q Continuum

        Charter Schools are actually abattoirs that supply the evil 1% with the human veal they so strongly crave.

      • Count Potato

        So did having only three TV networks.

      • Soyboy

        Schools suck at education and most kids hate and suffer through it, but at least you can relate and commiserate to Freaks and Geeks and Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

      • Tulip

        There are a lot of people for whom the typical school was a nightmare. Bullying, social anxiety. Leftists are usually more aware of that, but have tossed it out because they hate Devos.

      • Luther Baldwin

        I liked school. Everyone should experience it just like me, just because.

    • Hyperion

      “In 2016, shortly after she was appointed to the position, U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos declared American public schools a “dead end.”

      Betsy is right.

      • MikeS

        And despite mountains of evidence to back her up, progs had aneurysms when she said it.

      • Bob Boberson

        My grandmother is a retired public school teacher. Mentioning DeVos has that effect.

      • Rebel Scum

        One, single, collective aneurysm. Government Public indoctrination centers schools are their life-blood.

      • Q Continuum

        It’s true. The Teacher’s Unions launder more money to the DNC than any other group.

    • Akira

      I hate how the Left is so intent on preserving the status quo of the education system – both K-12 and college.

      That article seems to admit that the K-12 education system sucks, but they still oppose opening up private alternatives because “muh societal cohesion” or some shit.

      • Bob Boberson

        That and they’ll lose their near-monopoly on training up good little collectivists from the age of 5

      • Akira

        Not to mention all that sweet teacher’s union cash.

      • Hyperion

        “I hate how the Left is so intent on preserving the status quo of the education system – both K-12 and college.”

        But not surprising at all. The forced indoctrination of our children at the earliest age and for as long as possible is their most effective weapon. The media is a distant second. You replace public education and take it out of the firm grasp of the left and they are completely and irreversibly fucked.

    • Tres Cool

      ex-Ms TresCool was a dyed-in-the-wool member of the NEA, teaching High School english and BritLit. And constantly bitchin about salary, hours, etc.
      It didnt take long after we parted ways, that she got knocked up. Once her kid hit school age, she suddenly found herself teaching in catholic school so her kid got a “private” education for free.

      • Playa Manhattan

        Pics?

      • Tres Cool

        Oddly, she was ‘High School Teacher by Day’ and ‘amateur boxer by night’.

      • Lachowsky

        And rich socialists live in gated communities. Amazing how that works.

    • Sir Digby's Contrabulous Faptraption

      So, she is basically playing the “Muh Kullektiv!” card.

      Screw her with old HS janitor’s cancerous dick.

  15. Tulip

    I think the Subaru Horror Theatre stories are just so clever. I really enjoy them (horrifying though they are). The inside of your head must be a terrifying place, SugarFree.

    • Hyperion

      I expected STEVE SMITH to make an appearance during the coyote road kill.

    • Tres Cool

      Howard Stern interviewed Ozzy Osborn once not long after their shitty reality show was on. Noting Ozzy was drinking, Howard asked him ‘why? After so many years of sobriety, why?’
      Ozzy said, “spend a day in my head”

    • commodious spittoon

      I bet it’s Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood in SF’s head. He sends these little tales out on the toy trolley for the rest of us to suffer, and then he sits back, stretches his toes out in those sneakers, and just deadpans the wall for ten hours.

    • Tundra

      Nah. He’s probably the most well adjusted freak of all of us. All the brain spiders get stomped through his horror scribes.

      It’s the seemingly normal ones I’m concerned about.

      • Tundra

        Yes, exactly.

      • egould310

        You seem fairly normal.

      • Tundra

        Other than me who the fuck around here is seemingly normal?

        As a seemingly normal person, I’m not so quick to resort to fisticuffs.

        So we should all be in fear of Tulip?

      • Tulip

        I’m watching you.

      • SugarFree

        Yeah, I’m pretty disappointing in person. People expect a monster and get a middle-aged archivist instead.

      • Jarflax

        Depends on the archive now doesn’t it!

        SugarFree lovingly caressed the baby vellum scroll. “Not yet my precious. Not yet. On the day the Vessel spews forth Hillary’s dark Master I will share your secrets.”

        Turning slowly, always widdershins, and holding the Talisman of Neutral Purification in his sinister hand he muttered the calming charm “Cannabis fueled Mexican Ass sex, cocktails and fruit sushi” as he slid the Lexicon Voynicate R’yleh into it’s silver chased lead tube and affixed the golden Seal of Solomon.

      • SugarFree

        Yeah, no, nothing that exciting.

        I am currently processing a collection of aluminum transcription discs, and that’s pretty neat. Not many of those survived being melted down for aircraft parts during WWII.

      • Jarflax

        Interesting how much of that sort of thing we basically threw away in wartime. There are a LOT of books that were in print before the war that never reappeared afterwards (or not until OCR tech got decent) because the plates were ‘recycled’ into war materials. “Oh we don’t need the plate, if there is demand we can always reset it”

      • SugarFree

        Especially transcription discs. They were one-offs, not pressings. When they were destroyed they were often the only copy (or the master recording.) The aluminum ones were rugged. Most transcription were lacquer, acetate on glass, or various other types of plastics. They shatter and/or delaminate very easily.

        The funny thing about the aluminum ones… you couldn’t use steel needles, you played them with needles carved from coconut shells.

      • Tulip

        Didn’t someone shoot you once?

      • SugarFree

        Yeah, but it was an accident. I didn’t earn it.

    “It tasted worse coming up than going down,” Jane said.

    See, that’s why you drink bum wine. It tastes the same in both directions.

  17. Tulip

    I’m sorry to keep harping on this, but I still can’t buy a Hat and Hair mug. It still bounces me back to the store’s main page.

    • SugarFree

      Sorry, this is the first I’ve seen this. I’ll try to figure out what’s going on.

      • The Hyperbole

        It’s capitalism. Only the wealthy and connected can get Hat and Hair mugs. Fucking capitalism.

      • SugarFree

        Well, I have the answer, but I can’t fix it tonight. CafePress flagged the image as something that might be under copyright to someone other than us. This is deeply irritating.

        I’ll have to email with them tomorrow and get them to release the image for use.

      • juris imprudent

        Send them a link to some of your writing.

      • Tulip

        But I want to buy a mug, not get the store shut down.

      • Jarflax

        But I want to buy a mug, not get the store internet shut down.

    For the record, the bomb looks like someone wanted people to know that it was a bomb and for the attempt to fail.

      @njslea
      Replying to @thomasbsauer @MattWalshBlog
      They do not if you do not want them to detonate, BUT, want them noticed. This appears to be for “media affect” vs “dramatic outcome” time will tell.. Prosecute all involed

      Yep. Except, of course, no one (DNC, CNN) will ever be prosecuted because of it.

      • Not an Economist

        I’ve found a picture of the real life Hyperion, with an explanation no less.

    • Lachowsky

      So the bomb had an ISIS flag painted on it? There must be someone making noise about getting the U.S. out of the middle east. The country needs a little manufactured fear to keep its eye on the prize.

      • Hyperion

        Who paints something on a bomb that is supposed to blow up when you open the package? Maybe you needed it to not blow up so CNN could take a picture?

      • Lachowsky

        Someone who wants to make people think that there is a real danger of terrorism that needs to addressed in the most statist manner possible.

      • Hyperion

        hearkening back to the age of ‘reaching across the aisle’ when the great alliance of team purple ruled *barf*, I would assume just that. But now in these better days of right vs left in a war to the death, I don’t think so.

        If it were like that, the GOP and dems would have united to pass more far reaching 2nd amendment violations when Scalise was shot.

        That didn’t happen, thank the invisible sky gods, because those times are over.

      • Urthona

        No. That turned out to be fake.

      • one true athena

        It’s the meme parody version. You can see the figures in the middle instead of arabic writing if you compare it.

        But it definitely still goes with the “wants to be seen, not blown up” angle. Someone really, really wants it to look right-wing. Whether it is, I don’t know, but they didn’t seem to want to actually kill anyone, at least.

    • Lachowsky

      That’s funny. Political porn to keep the spirits of the #resist crowd up.

      • Hyperion

        It seems you need to constantly prop up the emotionally fragile.

    • SugarFree

      The comforting fantasy that the Russians are behind it all.

    • Brochettaward

      TS:DNR (Too stupid, did not read)

      Based on the picture, I’m guessing Trump is going to burn the White House down. Literally. Right before Mueller and his crack team of investigators can haul him off to jail.

        How flattering. But a heads up; will be adding a decent batch of songs to Jangle Noise soon. Rock n roll from Cleveland circa 1968, C86 stuff, noise from Chicago, jangle pop from San Francisco, jangly Australian stuff, even some jangly punk from Milwaukee circa 1988. Plus some other stuff. Also, Hole.

        Follow my Spotify playlist Jangle Noise. Over 9 hours of jangly guitars and scratchy guitars from all over the rock n roll landscape. https://open.spotify.com/user/egould310/playlist/20QahoaMym4xptW1UNzNpk?si=4CkrV0WeQZG5RQ3fRwaZ1Q

        But no Church. Definitely on the psychedelic end, but they keep making amazing jangly, trippy guitar-fueled awesomeness. Your list, but they might merit a song or two.

      • Luther Baldwin

        Some good stuff there but I don’t Spotify so I couldn’t see the complete list.

        Some For Against came up on my iPod the other day and I thought it would be ideal.

      • egould310

        Re the Church: challenge accepted! It’s gonna involve the Church, Love & Rockets, New Model Army, Fields of Nephilum, the Cult, and more. Gotta do some research. Thanks for the suggestion.

      • egould310

        The Alarm, the Mekons, The Smiths, Orange Juice, The Call, Last Stand, Lords of the New Church, etc. Yeah I’m getting an idea.

      • Hyperion

        Shut up, you KrautMick!

      • MikeS

        OK, I’m not, but I love that movie.

      • Hyperion

        OK, I was going to admit I’m Welsh, but you lied to me and now you have forfeited any jokes about me having a goat.

      • MikeS

        Well, the Kraut part is true, so only a half lie. So I offer half an apology, you woolyback.

      • Hyperion

        “woolyback”

        I’ve never heard that before. I’m impressed. I think.

    • Old Man With Candy

      SP says that a lot.

      • CPRM

        Judging by online porn everyone would think there is a missing ‘me’ in there.

  20. Nephilium

    Hey guys in New York… the Prohibition Party is back. One of the original progressive ideas, back in the modern day.

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      Considering a lot of progs have descended into neopuritanism they just might have a future. They could combine with what’s left of the Moral Majority and really screw us.

      • Hyperion

        This was my biggest fear for a long time. And it seemed it was all coming together. But then the left went too far and the right invented the meme. We are saved, for now.

      • Stinky Wizzleteats

        Maybe but I’m going to start hoarding old car radiators and copper tubing just in case.

    • Luther Baldwin

      Good lord. I see they support other “progressive” junk, too.

    • Suthenboy

      Because it is so popular and worked so well last time. Go for it.

    • Tres Cool

      OK..so at the federal level, prohibition aint gonna fly, cause they revoked that.
      So, in an argument for 10A and state’s rights, how do Glib’s feel about each state having a vote on whether they want an alcohol ban or not ?

      • Hyperion

        Of course I’m all for it. there is nowhere where it will come even close to passing. In the meanwhile, 3 cheers for federalism.

      • Stinky Wizzleteats

        And if they did manage, dear God, the money that could be made.

      • Jarflax

        Under the express terms of the 21st Amendment the States have full power to ban alcohol. No 10th Amendment argument needed. The 21st basically exempts alcohol from the commerce clause:

        The transportation or importation into any State, Territory, or possession of the United States for delivery or use therein of intoxicating liquors, in violation of the laws thereof, is hereby prohibited.

      • Tres Cool

        I was looking at the issue from the other side of states legalizing marijuana despite a federal ban.

      • Suthenboy

        Louisiana already does that on a parish by parish basis. It works…sort of.

      • Lachowsky

        Arkansas as well. I think about half the counties are dry. I dont see where it stops a single soul for imbibing though. It is a lucrative gig for rent seeking liquor store operators with stores on the county line.

      • Gustave Lytton

        States have powers, people have rights.

    • MikeS

      “For decades, the wets have promoted the myth that prohibition was a failure, and had led to increased crime and the rise (of the) mafia,” they wrote. “But this is not historically accurate. National Prohibition brought about the largest reduction in drinking in our nation’s history. While some people may have illegally produced and sold alcohol, it was far smaller than the legal alcohol industry that was largely destroyed by national prohibition. There was actually a general decrease in crime during the prohibition era, coming largely from reductions in crimes that were often committed by people in a state of intoxication.”

      That’s one way of looking at it.

      • Brett L

        What about the part where the government murdered citizens by denaturing alcohol? Those people probably deserved, huh?

      • Tres Cool

        +15,000 benzene

      • Hyperion

        Like Rethuglicans being chased out of restaurants, they were asking for it.

      • SugarFree

        “Fuck off, slaver!’ is another. These people are evil.

      • Jarflax

        Progressive: “Demon Rum destroys lives!”

        “So let’s kill people to stop them from drinking”

        Classical Liberal: “That is immoral, expensive, demeaning to the citizens you are treating as children, and simply won’t work. Why not put forth your ideas about the dangers and evils of drink and let people choose?”

        Progressive swinging axe: “You promote sin! God hates sin! You hate God! Die!”

        CL: “Basic Christian theology posits that God allows evil precisely because He gave us free will and wants us to freely choose virtue over vice, because forced virtue is not…” gurgles as axe strikes.

        Why does spell check flag axe? ax is not more correct.

      • Hyperion

        “National Prohibition brought about the largest reduction in drinking in our nation’s history”

        I bet that data was super accurate. Everyone will willingly admit to stuff they can be arrested for.

    • Lachowsky

      When did prohibition end? As far as I can tell, the war on (some) drugs is still alive and well.

      • Tres Cool

        The FDA has often been asked to define alcohol as a drug.
        They decline to comment.

      • Hyperion

        Alcohol, is of course, a drug. But it’s my drug *crickets*

      • Lachowsky

        Honestly, I wish they would. If you wanted support for a real end to the WOD, get alcohol classified the same as PCP.

    • Sir Digby's Contrabulous Faptraption

      Three of them — Russell Hallock of Washingtonville in the Hudson Valley, Robert A. Emery of Albany and Jonathan Makeley of Amherst near Buffalo, serve on the Prohibition Party’s national committee.

      Damn, those are some strange chick names.

    She snuggled up to him again and kissed his cheek. He could smell the vomit on her breath.

    “Let’s find something bigger,” she whispered.

    -Absolutely beautiful, SugarFree. Speaking of which, I spent some of last week to finally read up and catch up on all of the H&H and Hillary, The Becoming series. Truly powerful, hard-hitting tour de forces. The Presidential Campaign Coverage almost sent me to the hospital multiple times. BRAVO!

    I eagerly await your next Old One-inspired work, Dr, SugarFree.

    • slumbrew

      I always pictured him as German – Herr Professor Doktor SugarFree. Makes it more sinister.

      • Raphael

        I can follow that, this is a good head-canon.

    TV just showed a 102 year old lady – Red Sox fan who got out of the hospital yesterday and insisted on going to the game tonight. Badass.

        I LOL’d – Roberto is great.

      • Sir Digby's Contrabulous Faptraption

        Roberto IS great. However, I can’t help but wish they’d gone with Sid the Sloth, for the added discomfort of using children-focused animation.

        But, that’s just me.

        I can’t be expected to look at all the links/stories/sundries around here. I’m strictly nighttime, dude!

      • CPRM

        I think it was in Official Afternoon Links. Which means you’re shirking responsibilities.

      • Sir Digby's Contrabulous Faptraption

        Oh, no no no no…. Afternoon Links suggests sunlight (at least, in this part of the country), and that ain’t my bag.

        Plus, how would you know? You burning the candle at both ends?

        Look, all I’m saying is, pick a time of day, and stick to it. And, since you do very well here at night, there’s your solution!

        Now, excuse me-I have to post more stupid funny links.

        A guy I worked with at my job in HS had a poignant thought one morning, “How come your own farts don’t smell as bad to you?” There is the trillion dollar question we need the Government to find the answer to.

        The next DARPA project, for sure.

      • CPRM

        I mean, I think that’s the ONE thing a totally free market in science wouldn’t look into, therefore it should be bankrolled by government. I mean I can see rich weirdos who get off on funding how shrimps react to cocaine, but I really think this could only be funded research by the government.

      • Sir Digby's Contrabulous Faptraption

        how shrimps react to cocaine

        Hint: They find it AWESOME!

        Then again, so did shreeky.

    By the way, I’m not going to animate these or the Hillary stories, I know everyone doesn’t want to go blind.
