Survey says I’m a Paleolibertarian bitches. That means I eat “L”ibertarians for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Soave tastes a little fruity. Wait a minute, that doesn’t sound quite right…

I’m really beginning to question your sincerity to Sprinkle Tits!
Hell no!
Of course you can say it. You are important. Your cup is quite, shall we say, adult and very nice.

I’ll have you know that “Pleasant Valley Sunday” is named for a road in my area in West Orange.

Fun story, i decide to take up disc golf, a nice course at the park, i played a lot 20 years ago so what the hell. First shot goes wildly left into the parking lot, no cars injured, just my ego, so its back to basics, control, etc. distance comes later. A guy walks up and I say ” well that wasnt good” he says, ” what are you throwing” I show him my Innova set, he says, they are light, why? He thyen opens his truck, to reveal about 50 discs, oh shit..
We spent the next hour working on my Technique, and it helped a lot, He has his own 9 hole course and plays tournaments and stuff, but he took the time to help me get better, Thanks Kent!
If he wasn’t wearing tie dye, then gentrification knows no bounds.
Hippies Cant play Real Disc Golf,
Frisbie golf is as yuppie as things get. There was a course at Miami University (the real one not the abomination in Florida) in 1986
Pretty niche now, but still 6000+ courses to play, just in the U.S.
I knew a guy who had a degree in Frisbee.
I’m assuming he’s now homeless?
It was from MIT. But he took a lot of LSD. So I guess it’s a toss up.
That’s the kinda thing that comes right back at you.
THANK YOU!!! Since 1809, bitchezz!

Let me preface this by saying there are some extraordinary cheesemakers up here. But Sturgeon’s Law applies.
Today I got a “Pepper Jack” from North Country Creamery. Nothing a cheese connoisseur would geek about, but I’m more of a cheese commonsewer.
The peppers in it are bell peppers.
Fuck North Country Creamery right in their butter churn.
UCS and I laughed at your spicitude. What color were the peppers?
Red and green, AFAICT. There may be some purple ones in there.
Sounds just right for a Minnesoda guy, not too hot, not too mild. Enjoy it anyway, NA.

Well haven’t been here in a while, thought I would stop by and say hello.
Howdy!
Fuck off, well-regarded Tulpa!
Happy new year, dude!
Happy New Year to you too.
If you think I’m “well-regarded” then I have to doubt the accuracy of your memory. 🙂
No Way, Hows it going Chem!
Lol!
Get your ass around here more often, brother. It’s a weird place already but you could still make it weirder!
Well hello. Glad to see you as well.
I couldnt stand you at TOS, please come and annoy me some more,
Welcome Chem!
Well happy to be “of service” then I suppose. 🙂

You’re gonna have to submit to a semicolonoscopy.
Howdy! It’s been a coon’s age!
Hello! It’s certainly been a while.
The folk belief about racoons’ longevity has been proven incorrect. The origin of the phrase coon’s age is generally unknown to most people. It is usually assumed to be an insult and it is best not to use this term. Examples are difficult to come by, as the term has mostly fallen by the wayside. A coon’s age maybe related to the old English expression, in a crow’s age. Other related phrases are dog’s age and donkey years.
Bigot!
Any word that has every been used as a slur, or that sounds, looks, or just feels proximate to, such a word should be banned forever! Communication will henceforth be by sudden movements of the head toward or away from the desired item.
Weirdly just last night I was listening to the old-timey radio channel on Sirius/XM last and some dude used ‘Coon’s age’ and I thought ‘wow people can’t say that anymore’. Then I listened to Gunsmoke and heard what an asshole Marshal Dillon was and realized things really haven’t changed all that much after all.
You’re shitting on Matt Dillon? What the hell is wrong with you?
*eases carefully out of chat room*
White knighting for Miss Kitty
Headed back to the bar Miss Kitty?
OK, a Matt Dillon story.
One day my then girlfriend/now wife stopped at an ATM. I just waited in the car. She comes running back all excited. She says, ” guess whose behind me in line? Matt Dillon!!! I’m so excited!” I just said sure and she went back to the line.
Next day, She asks me, “did you take my card?” I told her no, she had it at the Matt Dillon ATM. She goes online and finds out the card got jacked for about 350.00 which was the limit back then. I laughed and told her she got ripped off by Matt Dillon! It turned out she left it on the screen “would you like another transaction?” The next person did want another transaction. Sadly it wasn’t Dillon. He went to the next machine over.
BTW, When I was younger, I would often get told I look like that guy.
Just the time he beat a guy up because he had the goods on Doc, or the time he let outlaws run wild because the towns folk weren’t giving him enough respect, or the time he chased a fellow lawman out of Dodge because the murderer he was after was a ‘good’ guy. Or all the other times he Beat, Shot , or Bullied people because they weren’t acting right in “his” town. Fuck Marshal Dillon, and fuck Chester for kissing his ass every chance he got, brown nosing weaselly simpleton.
Hateful.
*humblebrag*
He meant Chester
I really don’t like you.
I wasn’t saying that I don’t think people shouldn’t say that anymore just that society doesn’t allow them to say it anymore. But I don’t really like me either so join the club.
It’s all about the balls.

They called Pershing blackjack because he had commanded Negro troops. It is meant as an insult you bullying aggressive ass!
You’re on the list now Jarflax.
I tried and tried, but he never added me to the official enemies list he kept. He did stalk me for 3 days once in the comments, but never put my name on the official list. I wonder if I can find it again.
Yes, still no me 🙁
What does it mean when you keep an online enemies list?
I have several.
He’s keeping it up. I think Hank Phillips appeared after the glibbening.
There was a guy at work that kept a list of other employees in other departments that didn’t know how to do their job (according to him) and listed those failures next to their names. He also went through his dictionary and highlighted the insult words. What a weirdo.
Ha! I talked so much shit about that guy that “Hihn” is in my auto spell. I don’t think I ever made it onto his enemies lost either…?
*Jarflax’s link*
Who… Whu… Uhhhhhh
Hank was their when I was there. I did migrate a bit after the rest of you, so maybe he was post glibbening, but I recall him as a long timer.
What Mojo said.
I wonder what the thought process was to determine formatting. Like why did he switch to this font type, size, or color for this paragraph and not another.

I thought you said he never made the move over to here.
Fascinating.
By George you’ve got it ! Err, that’s him, I mean Hihn,
That is too good an impersonation, JF. A little too good.
Holy shit is that guy unhinged. I mean… looking at that page makes me feel bad for him.
It isn’t that hard to mimic someone with that many predictable tics. But yeah, after a few nasty exchanges I settled down to trolling him by very solicitously defending him from attacks by suggesting that it was unfair to mock the mentally ill and asking him if he had anyone to get him help. I felt bad about that after a while. He genuinely needs help, but not my crazy monkey, not my circus.

I don’t go back to TOS, and I am glad none of that nonsense made it over here, but there were funny times. I remember when LibertyMike and a couple of others created sockpuppets named Michael Hlhn and other close variants and trolled Hihn into full fledged rage.
Just Hihncredible !
I remember that and you are correct – it was fucking hysterical. I also seem to recall that happening one or more of the other d-bags who ruined the place and it was pretty funny.

I keep seeing references to Krugabe getting caught doing something naughty. I’m not sure if I have the stomach to find out what, exactly.
He claims his IP was taken over to download child pron.
How probable is that? I’m sure taking over an IP is possible, it just seems like a lame excuse.
The only scneario I can see is if he failed to put a password on his wireless network, or a really weak one, and someone in the area connected to it.
Otherwise, it’s not worth the effort.
Meh. With a linex machine and the right software, many networks are pretty easy to hack. Well, they used to be. Most providers have upgraded their security, but, as of 5 years ago (the last time I really tried), in some apartment buildings I could hack the passcode of 2/3 of the routers in less than 24 hrs.
Or linux. Users choice
Doesn’t make it worth the effort.
Thanks. I’m doing some reading. Interesting.
My vote is that the Krug-man is full of bowel secretions.
Well, I suppose that if one wanted to anonymously download material that could send one to prison for many years, where one would be identified as a “chomo”, and thus repeatedly singled out for violence, then it might make it worth the effort.
Yeah, LineX doesn’t really work well as firewall material.
Krugnuts came out and said his IP was linked to downloading kiddie porn. Except no one had said anything.
Wasn’t he just trying to prove to his family that kiddie porn existed? I can’t keep up with all the Carlos Dangers out there.
Howdy! It’s my first post on Glibertarians. Longtime lurker here and at TOS also. My understanding was after my first post here I would receive my pot, Mexicans and orphans. Is that true?

I get it bro. When my wife was sick, I was working online, so I could be with her, take her to appointments, etc. When I lost that job, there was no way I could do something with a fixed schedule. You’ll find something. It’ll be ok.
Where I’m stalled in another story “Twenty Zombi Man”. I don’t think I’ve introduced you guys to this narrator officially. Kord FitzHelen von Zesrin is Dug’s third kid. At this point he’s been captured and is being kept in an iron cage. ‘Tedesse’ is an actual name, but I forget what african language it comes from. He’s an old guy who described himself as a ‘Twenty Zombi Man’.
Intriguing. You say you’re stalled here? What do you want to happen next? Is Tedesse going to make Kord drink this concoction?
(If you’ll forgive a typo point-out – “’When you the essence from the black lotus…” has a word missing. Proofreading is a bit of a superpower for me.)
Yeah, I’m stalled, mostly because I can’t figure out how to describe what happens next

“It” is gender neutral and I will not assume. I misgendered poor Toxteth O’Grady and I still feel bad about it.

Alcohol Is Killing More Americans Than Ever
The study, published Wednesday in Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research, relies on death certificate data.
““Given evidence that death certificates often do not reflect the contribution of alcohol, the magnitude of alcohol-related mortality in the United States is likely much higher than suggested from death certificates alone,” the authors said.”
In other words our research couldn’t verify how the people actually died so we are going to assume even more people are dying. Please send us more money for more “research”.
Well, there’s really only one thing we can do. Ban alcohol. It hasn’t been done by the right people.

“Having grabbed her and pushing her to the wall, his kisses found her mouth, then made an orbit around her face, then neck and ears. The tingling she felt as he used his knee to force her legs askew let her know she was damp like a flooded basement. As he pressed on her shoulders, her mouth wet, moving her to his cod, she knew she was about to become his…..peter-heater.”

OT: I wasn’t around last night or today to comment on yesterday’s “Anthrax” article, but wanted to say thanks to everyone who read and commented. I’m running a bit behind in my “Glibbing” and may continue to for a bit as I get “caught up” on my life.
Mme Splosives, DE, 4×20, Gustave, Atreides, et al – Yes. You now know why I am just. that. salty. Honestly, though. I’m really not – at least, not in the moment. But it does need to be fixed; I just don’t know that it will be and I try not to be bothered because, hey – I’m out! Suck it! Rope’s up, I got mine! (as the old nautical joke goes).
It is the philosophical implications, however, that bother me. Many people in this country really do believe that ‘We’ are property of the State; that Rights are gifts of a benevolent and Almighty G-O-V. I hope I live to see that change back to what it used to be, but maybe not.
Speaking of property, that current runs even stronger in the armed forces, or at least in the Army. I remember hearing in Basic that you couldn’t get a tattoo (or commit suicide) because it was destruction of government property. Ugh.
Yeah, I heard that same stupidity. People being charged with that kind of nonsense. That’s like the ultimate First Sergeant’s Wet Dream. We used to laugh our asses off at Naval Justice School when I was on staff there at such a notion. However – comma – the anthrax vaccine program and what I learned while involved in it, made me reconsider if it isn’t actually shorthand for a notion that’s become so prevalent, it may be more “true” than we’d like to admit.
People being charged with that kind of nonsense.
God help you if you refuse an Article 15 and opt for a court martial.
Actually, I do know one guy who did that. He got in trouble for some chickenshit thing (shooting low power airguns at each other or something juvenile) and unlike the others, decided he wasnt going to just take the rather punitive Article 15. His chain of command from his squad leader on up, pleaded, threatened and cajoled him to drop it. I think he eventually got the proposed Article 15 reduced or dropped but got kicked out of the Rangers. Ended up retiring as CSM of the Army National Guard.
I once received a Battery level Art. 15, resulting in a week of painting the rocks outside Top’s office. My crime – coloring my hair auburn at the fancy hairstylist in Carmel-By-The-Sea while getting a nice pre-deployment to the NTC haircut.
This is nteresting.

The war between the Poles and the Soviets in 1920. I had no idea.
That was interesting – thanks.
I don’t think Dracula gets enough credit for saving Europe from Islam, but for some reason, Germany had it out for him.
I suppose I should let Pie opine on that.
Yeah. A really nasty and evil man saved christiandom- a religion that had destroyed the mighty Roman Empire with a message of love and forgiveness. Irony? Or just rain on your wedding day?

I need vacation ideas for this year. Where should I go?
Acadia National Park.
Maine is already stupid-beautiful and Acadia is next-level.
September?
Still lovely. It’s never exactly *warm* there – we were there at the end of July this year and it was unseasonably warm at around 88° – but they had special weather bulletins telling people to remember the water was a hypothermia-inducing 50°.
Pigeon Forge. Then write an article on it.
I honeymooned in Pigeon Forge. We’re planning to go back again over spring break this year.
Early October, ride the narrow gauge steam train out of Chama, NM with aspens all in gold.
Well. If it were me, and I were single, I would hit up Europe. Maybe the gardens in Holland and France. Maybe go to Venice. Maybe Spain. (No, definitely Spain.)
Here in the US? New Orleans.
Or maybe go to the Caribbean.
Yes, Italy is awesome, though Venice was my least-favorite stop (Lake Como -> Venice -> Florence -> Rome).
I have not been to Italy, but Mr. Mojeaux’s family is Italian, so he does. I BELIEVE his family is from Naples, but don’t quote me on that.
Mine’s from Belgium and England. BTDT.
But not New Orleans in September.
No sir! You’ll end bouncing from air-conditioned bar to air-conditioned bar just trying to make it down the street. Fun Fact – Labor Day 2004, I had just finished up my shift at the bar and was biking home. It was 4am, 94°F with 95% humidity. Just brutal. Go to NOLA for Halloween, Mardi Gras, or Jazz Fest (Jazz Fest is often hot but it rains so you’ll be cool but wet, watching some great music and eating even better food). Mmm cochon de lait po’boy, crawfish bread, and frozen strawberry-lemonade.
Pick a random valley in Austria and ski.
No fly list? When during the year? What is your idea of a vacation? Budget?
These make a difference between, for example, Karnali (Himalayas) and The Boulders (Arizona).
Peru
Chile
New Zealand
Argentina
Mongolia
I would love to see Mongolia.
Patagonia.
All fly fishing destinations. I’ve been to two of the four.
NZ- fishing sucked but the rest of the country is beautiful
Argentina- Fishing is good, but communists (and retired Nazis), beautiful country
Want to see Chile. Allegedly good fishing without the tyranny
And Mongolia… Taimen
OMG that’s you? A fish? In Mongolia?
Ded. d-e-d ded.
Very impressive.
Ushuaia in Tierra Fuego is pretty damn impressive. It is the farthest south city on the planet and the stepping off place for Antarctica. The landscape is fantastic, the seafood fresh caught and the dark beers at the local micro-brewery remarkable.
Then stop off in Patagonia for a few days and see the wild Andes.
Wanted to fish the Rio Grande in Tierra del Fuego for sea-run browns, but didn’t get down that far.
Depends on the time you’re taking the vacation. We did the UP (uh, upper Michigan) over July and it was amazing. We just got back from the Everglades for Christmas and that was wonderful too. The last weekend of July is the Burro Days festival in Fairplay, Colorado and that’ll give you the opportunity to see llama races, plus a burro trek and is lots of fun. We’ve been twice. In fact, camping in Colorado in July is just a great experience. If I could convince my husband to go for online school/homeschooling, I’d take our trailer on the road full time and never stop visiting the US. This is such a beautiful country.
We did the UP in late August and loved it. Especially liked St. Ignace (“Snigness,”) watching the ships go through the Soo, and Munising. Went up to Copper Harbor (the UP’s UP) and had a picnic on the lakeshore. Would love to go to Isle Royale National Park.
We stayed at Copper Harbor for several days in July last year. Loved walking down to the shore to listen to the water shifting the rocks. Constant tinkling noise as various items settled, and the way the sun glinted off of all the spotted rocks in the harbor was mesmerizing. We met some really nice people up there, too. On the way to the UP we also hit Petoskey, which is very picturesque and offers fun rock collecting. We’re planning to hit Sleeping Bear Dunes and Picture Rocks this year on our way to Yellowstone. I’m sort of a shut-in that hardly ever leaves the house, but when I leave the house, I really leave the house.
Oh, hey, you know what?
Jellystone. I really really really love Jellystone.
Do the original Jellystone in Wisconsin! Last year was their 50 year anniversary. It’s old school, without quite as many amenities as the more recent ones have (I have kids, don’t judge) but we had a lot of fun.
Heh. I actually meant Yellowstone. I didn’t know until I googled (after I posted, natch) that there really is a Jellystone. Oops.
Yellowstone is fabulous.
Hahaha. We’re doing Yellowstone this summer! Already have a week booked at Rainbow Point campground. But we do Jellystone too, because of the kids.

Old favorite of mine! That’s still on my work rotation over thirty years later. I thought that I was the only one.
See, when I stop linking Motley or Nikki, Chafed disappears. *hrmph*
Its cause you need this
*looks guiltily at music library, closes folder*
I owned that album on cassette. That song is a jam.
He stole a lot from Prince, which could be appropriation or appreciation. You decide.
But you cant tell me Prince didn’t steal from Betty Davis. Or George Clinton, or Sly, or Parliament….
Meh, I don’t get too caught up in “X stole that from Y!”. That’s the nature of art.
or James Brown, the GodFather..
This is a great interview with the man.
Damn. Thanks!
I have a vague remembery of D’Arby being a really accomplished musician. He had his couple of hits and then voluntarily faded from the limelight? I think?
I do know that Rico Suave was a gag track and that the dude (whatever his name is, not looking it up) was/is an accountant and was a bigwig at a record company.
Double lives, man. You never know who’s really got it going on in the old noggin.
Check out the interview I linked – it’s great.
I love this man.
What a great article!
Absolutely true. Catching glimpses of Madonna (because nobody really watches her anymore) is kind of painful. It reminds ME that I’M getting old.
Yep, read it years ago and it instantly sprung to mind. Great journalism.
And Madge is pathetic at this point, so thirsty for attention.
Well… short of dying, she could have at least had the wits to retire gracefully or move into film or something. Watching her pretend to be 20 into her 60s is getting icky.
or move into film
Uh, yeah….
Indeed, very good interview. Thanks, I wondered what happened to him. I was a teen when his first album came out, and even though I was a rock kid, I dug his videos and sound.

They went down the same avenue as the Monkees, or Archies.
I always thought of Gorillaz as more of a side-gig / hobby for dudes who had other things going on.
E.g,. “The musicians behind Gorillaz’ first incarnation included Albarn, Del the Funky Homosapien, Dan the Automator and Kid Koala,”
WRT to Del- I do love this

Speaking of Del, I can make an on-topic link (sort of)
That live Del is pretty great.
I saw Kool Keith opening for Ice-T a while back. Love Dr. Octo, but Keith live just isn’t really worth your time.
While we were really going to see Keith, Ice-T put on an amazingly great show – super high-energy, and I forgot how many of his songs I knew.

While I’m at it…..B.O.B.
Ain’t nobody dope as me I’m dressed so fresh so clean.

I’m really good- or so Ive been told.
I may be taking a sabbatical from here starting in about a week tho.
That always sounds like a layoff to me…
Sabbatical from Glibs or from your work or what?!
Ill update your good friend GT as necessary, since }}she’s{{ right up the street in my ‘hood
Well. Okay. *suspicious look* You’re not going to get yourself killed or anything, are you?
Ozy and I worked up a Clover covered Kia, the ultimate, Kia Pet?
/too much driving…
Is that clover at least crimson ?
LOL Very clever.
And in about 8 hours its back to Vegas in the Kia pet to visit the Wendy, She’s such a trooper, and just wants to come home and see her animals,
Hell yeah….get her home and with some ani-mules.
Nobody wants to hang out in a horsepistol.

Huh. I haven’t had Arby’s for a while.
Stone cold.
That second one looks like she could throw you around like a bale of hay! #notallfarmgirls
Mmmm. Redhead.
I completely dead tired and lethal drunk.
I just smoked everyone at bat trivia but am now falling asleep.
Or weirdly philosophical.?we shall see
The bat hanging upside down laughs at the topsy-turvy world. -Proverb
I don’t care for perverts…oh you said proverb.
Confucius say, “He who laughs last laughs longest”. Ahhh, Godzilla.
I used to watch The Mokees, on Nick at night, along with F-Troop.
I used to watch The Monkees in my jammies.
Today, as normal, I had five or so jobs around all over. In the morning, two jobs in a leafy suburb, one of which had a great old lady that used to love to fly fish, we had a great conversation about that and life and death in general. I headed back to the city. A real estate agent needed to gain entry to a lower part of a house where a person had died and they were getting ready for sale. It wasn’t a high stress situation, I pick locks all the time, but there is something of a Murphy’s Law of lockpicking. The number of people watching you and their desire for quick entry generally doubles the time to gain access. Instead of just having me pick the lock on the front, which was a relatively easy one, the agent brings me around to the back funky old door. I tell him the front would be better, but there is some convoluted reason that he thinks the back would be best. He’s paying so we go through the house to the backyard. There are two different contractors waiting impatiently to see the downstairs unit for inspections, I know what is coming. About 45 seconds into picking, I hear it. “It’s a lot quicker in the movies.” I have one of my standard responses of “it would be pretty boring to watch someone truly pick a lock for two minutes wouldn’t it, no action there.” After four minutes I get tired of the exasperated sighs and drill out the cylinder of the dusty old deadbolt. There is something barring the back of the door from the inside. “Let’s do the front Thirty seconds later it is open.
Heh. From the bystander side, every time I get my car doors opened because I locked my keys inside once every couple of years: why do I even bother locking the door?
If you don’t live in an urban area or have nothing of real value in there you probably don’t even need to bother locking it. Anyone who is going to be able to steal it is not going to be deterred by a locked door. You just don’t want it to become a toilet or a makeshift bordello or the like.
Keep honest people honest is most of what garden variety locks do.

Not first on my drool list, but looks nice.

Hmmm…if that comes in 20 gauge…
10 + 1 mag fed please
Of course that’s totally illegal in my country where shotguns are required to be capable of firing no more than 2 without reloading, and have a minimum barrel length of 6 feet, making them entirely impractical for home defense, which based on the law they would be anyway because should you blast an intruder you’d be almost assured of dying in prison for murder.
That’s not for me, but I wouldn’t disparage anyone else from picking one up.
Remington does a semi auto and a pump along those same lines.

Weirdly tempting. I think I would prefer it in 20 as well, but not an option. The pump comes in 20, though.
Tales from the Janitor, Volume #1006 – So I’m toiling away at one of my sites tonight which is a retail branch of the Post Office Doop-d-doop-d-doo when I notice my broom moves a pebble on the carpet at the front desk that glints. It’s winter here and the building management goes heavy on the salt and grit because most of the clientele are elderly. I take a second look and bend to pick it up. It’s someone’s diamond that must have come loose from the setting. Judging by what I researched online it must be at least two carats! So I took it back to the lead hand’s office and left it on her desk with a note about when and where I found it. Thus endeth the tale.
Wow! If that’s a real diamond – or even a CZ from someone’s beloved piece of jewelry – there’s a special place in heaven for you!
It was funny that I didn’t even have an “Otter Moment” about it. Sure, I could have pocketed it (finders keepers) but I just knew that some old dear would be devastated when she realized that the stone that “Joe” gave her was gone forever just because she was taking her gloves off to mail some cookies to her Granddaughter. You guys have rubbed off on me but in the non Sugar-Free way! NAP. I feel good, she’ll be happy and the sun will rise in the east tomorrow.
Right on. Good humaning.
Thanks. It’s like I have to reassure myself from time to time that I’m actually a decent man (Alcoholism and disthymia not withstanding).

i wonder what dirt he had on the Clintons.

Yeah, right.
OK, that’s just weird.
Nobody will vote for that cock-eyed optimist.
She was a big Bernie supporter – possibly still is.
If we had a “free pass” in my marriage contract she would be near the top of the list about 15 years ago.

Not guilty. NJ DMV is the worst.
