WTF!?!?

Rush Limbaugh – Hypocrite

by Lucas Witherspoon We all know that Rush Limbaugh is no stranger to controversy, mostly because he’s a raging douchebag, and it looks like he’s managed to drum up a little attention yet again.

On the February 29 broadcast of his radio show, Limbaugh made comments about Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown law student who spoke before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee in favor of insurance companies covering women’s contraception (birth control), that included calling labeling her “a slut” and “a prostitute.” Specifically, he said: “What does it say about the college coed Susan Fluke, who goes before a congressional committee and essentially says that she must be paid to have sex? What does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute. She wants to be paid to have sex.”

During Fluke’s testimony, she primarily focused on the health benefits of birth control, which include lowering the risk of cancer and easing menstrual cramps, rather than the sexual aspect. Rush, though, wasted no time in pointing out the fact that, yes, birth control pills also prevent unwanted pregnancy. But why is he talking about preventing unwanted pregnancy like it’s a bad thing? For someone who constantly talks about personal responsibility, he isn’t espousing a woman taking control of her own physical health and preventing a pregnancy she knowingly is not ready for. He’s also perpetuating the misconception that Sandra Fluke was asking for the government to 8 | davidatlanta

pay for her birth control. Her testimony was in favor of having private healthcare insurers pay for birth control, which, in some cases, can run into the thousands of dollars. The government will not be paying for birth control, but the government will, however, be paying for that welfare baby that was a result of a woman’s lack of access to affordable birth control.

Naturally, the general public was offended by Rush’s comments, and rightfully so. He didn’t limit his name-calling to this one instance either; rather, he spent the better portion of three days dragging Sandra Fluke through the mud on his three-hour radio show. It wasn’t until sponsors started pulling their support (read: money) from his show that Rush issued a half-assed apology, where he apologized for calling Fluke a slut and prostitute, but not for saying Fluke is “having so much sex, it’s amazing she can still walk” or describing her as “a woman who is happily presenting herself as an immoral, baseless, no-purposeto-her life woman.” He then turned it around and blamed leftists, claiming he “acted too much like the leftists who despise me.” Yes, because it’s the Left that’s so ardently antiwomen. What a crock of shit.

And while we’re on the subject of sex-related drugs, wasn’t Rush caught trying to smuggle illegal Viagra into a Palm Beach airport?

Riiiiight, so it’s fine for you to illegally obtain medication for erectile dysfunction (I’m shuddering at the thought of him sticking that penis into anything but a garbage disposal), but if a woman wants to act responsibly and in the best interest of herself and society in general, it somehow makes her a slut? I’ve known gay escorts who act with more dignity than Rush Limbaugh.

The bottom line is this is a man who makes $50 million a year. You don’t make that kind of money from having a lack of an audience.

The sad reality is he’s not going away anytime soon. With that being said, this kind of blatant misogyny and lack of respect for women cannot go unchecked, and I’m glad it hasn’t. I can only hope that this time around, the controversy will prove to be a learning experience for Rush, but I’m not holding my breath.

Men Seeking Men

Talk That Talk

A

by Tristan Timothy

s adventurous as I am in the bedroom there is still one threshold that I just can’t cross, dirty talk. I’m seriously just no good at it. Giving and receiving I am unable to talk that talk.

This may seem like it’s not a big deal but I’ve ran into a few instances where the wrong words have had me running straight out the door.

I remember sleeping with a guy who was really into dirty talk. Telling him what I was going to do to him and making him feel like a nasty little slut really got him off. Thing is, whenever I would start the talk the smile that crept across his lips seemed mocking.

Here we are in the midst of some passionate lovemaking, hot and heavy stuff, full on sex and he’s almost laughing at me. It’s possible that he could have just been ecstatic and filled with the joy of the moment but his face was akin to someone reading mildly amusing Facebook posts.

I can see where he was coming from. I’ve been on the other side of bad dirty talk and if it’s not done right it can really break the moment. I remember being bent over a coffee table and really in the heat of the moment when the guy starting calling me a “little slut” and a “filthy little whore.” I didn’t want to laugh but got depressed instead. Sometimes when hooking up I don’t want to be reminded that I’m acting like a

12 | davidatlanta

Gay Dating in the City “filthy little whore.” And don’t even think about telling me to call you daddy.

Some guys don’t even have to use words to break the moment. I was in a threesome where truly no words were said. The two guys, a couple, repeatedly and frequently kept moaning “Mmmm Hmmm.” Kiss “Mmmm Hmmm” Touch “Mmmm Hmmm.”

It became the creepiest thing ever. I mean, I can understand not wanting to say much but they were practically humming the whole time.

Maybe it’s because I started exploring my interest in guys in AOL chat rooms or the fact that I used to call into phone sex lines just to listen to other callers talk to each other but this is a trick that just isn’t in my bag. So while there are many things that can ruin the perfect hook up, bad dirty talk ranks amongst the top. Flanked of course by bad douching and a herpes confession.

WTF!?!? Tidbits Vanessa Minnillo is pregnant with Nick Lachey’s baby. Just another case of irrelevancy breeding irrelevancy.

After her frail appearance at the Oscars, prominent stunt queen and

resident silver fox Dr. Drew Pinsky has publicly proclaimed that Angelina Jolie is malnourished after having read an article in Us Weekly that alleged she was starving herself “to make a statement about the kids in Africa.” Okay, if you’re a doctor who relies on Us Weekly for your information, you should automatically have your Ph.D. or M.D. revoked.

Just in case you needed another reason to feel depressed about your life, Justin Bieber reportedly bought $14 million worth of real estate and received a $100,000 car for his birthday.

Scarlett Johansson has been cast as Janet Leigh, presumably in a big attempt to make Lindsay Lohan’s role as Elizabeth Taylor seem less embarrassing.

George Clooney has come to the defense of the gay community in

debunking rumors he himself is gay, saying, “My private life is private, and I’m very happy in it. Who does it hurt if someone thinks I’m gay?” It’s always those who doth protest too little who. are definitely not gay (but maybe down for a drunken blowjob).

When will the religious right learn?

Kim Kardashian allegedly made fun of Demi Moore at Elton

John’s Oscar party by requesting that Devo’s “Whip It!” be played (Demi Moore was doing whip-its before checking into rehab). Two questions: how was Kim Kardashian invited to Elton John’s Oscar party, and who is she to judge? Her entire career is based on getting fucked by Brandy’s brother.

Paparazzi outside of The Mercer Hotel in NYC mistook 66-year-old Blondie lead singer Debbie Harry for 25-year-old Lindsay Lohan. That one kind of speaks for itself.

Guys, it’s official: Snooki is pregnant. Well, so she says, but seeing as she’s only about two months along, it could just be severe booze bloat for all we know. Side note: her due date is reportedly in December 2012... well-played, Mayans.

Martha Stewart and Rachael Ray ended up in the same NYC

restaurant, where Martha apparently sent Rachael rushing out of the restaurant after throwing her a dirty look. Now THAT is how a true diva operates. Martha didn’t even have to speak and sent that bitch scurrying for the door.

An Open Letter to Meryl Streep Dear Meryl,

W

here do I begin? I guess I could start with my own congratulations to you on winning your third Oscar for The Iron Lady. With the award, you’re one of the most Oscar-awarded actors in history, joining the ranks of Jack Nicholson and Katharine Hepburn, among others. You already hold the record for most nominations, too. I mean, 17 nominations over your career? That’s stupendous. And you’re still actively taking roles, so you and I both know it’s highly likely that number will grow.

Julia? It’s Complicated? Mamma Mia!? All of these films were not simply aided by your role in the cast; they were made watchable by your presence.

Who’s to say where your upcoming film roles will go? One of your upcoming projects, August: Osage County, certainly looks like another Oscar-baity role. With you starring against Julia Roberts, it will certainly be interesting, at the very least. I’m hoping it will be great, because I love your work. And Julia’s, too. Feel free to convey that to her.

But you know what would be a gutsy move?

Work with a director or a screenwriter who’s

If you were to take on a role with a director who’d be a little more challenging, though, I think you’d create a truly memorable performance. I believe that you can play any role you want. Hell, I’d watch you play Batman…

Now, with this in mind, I’d like to make one request: would you start appearing in better films again?

Here’s why I’m making this request: you are an amazing talent. I don’t think anyone would argue with that. You are also typically the best part of any film you’re in. Sometimes, it’s just because you’re… you. But in recent years, it’s because you’re not only the best part, but also one of the few good parts.

Let’s take The Iron Lady as an example.

Of course, you were incredible. I’ll also give credit to Jim Broadbent for playing your husband. You two worked quite well together.

But the movie itself? Kind of a dud.

And really, that’s been the case more often than not over the past few years. Julie & 18 | davidatlanta

a little more avant-garde. That’s no knock to your more recent directors like Phyllida Lloyd, Nancy Meyers or Nora Ephron, but they’re all a bit on the conventional side. I don’t doubt that you challenge yourself when you take on a role. If you were to take on a role with a director who’d be a little more challenging, though, I think you’d create a truly memorable performance.

I believe that you can play any role you want.

Hell, I’d watch you play Batman, if that’s what you wanted to do, and I’m sure Modern Family has made that idea a popular one with your fans. I simply ask that you make your film choices as stellar as your performances.

Sincerely, Elijah Sarkesian, A Loyal Fan

Luck o’ Atlanta

Going Green with Irish Pride

A

by Stasha Oakley

h, Saint Patrick’s Day: the day the world turns green. We dig out a green shirt to avoid legal pinching assault by strangers, adorn ourselves with shamrock shaped beads, and the streets run green with regurgitated dyed beer. We may not know who Saint Patrick actually was, but we can certainly celebrate to excess in his honor.

Saint Patrick was a Roman-Brit who was kidnapped as a teenager and shipped to Ireland as a slave. He managed to escape but returned to Ireland singing’ the gospel of Jesus Christ.

He used the shamrock as a signifier of the Holy Trinity. The day falls during the Christian season of Lent: 40 days and 40 nights of sacrifice, reflection, and fasting. Saint Patrick’s Day gives the masses a break from the sober, vegetarian life they’ve been living. Celebrants drink, dance, and eat big hunks of meat.

It wasn’t until Saint Patrick’s Day moved across the seas to the United States that the party really got started. The oldest Saint Patty’s Day parade in the US dates all the way back to 1762, even before the American Revolution.

As the celebrations gained momentum cities across the country began dying rivers green,

planting peas, and painting the city blocks… you guessed it. Green.

Here in Georgia Saint Patrick’s Day is often associated with Savannah. Some say festivities began down in South Georgia as early as 1813 while the common belief is the Hibernian Society organized the first celebration in 1824.

Nowadays in Savannah the fountain runs green and around 400,000 people hit the streets in a huge parade through the city’s historic downtown.

Atlanta folk don’t have to take the trek down South to experience the green machine that falls on March 17th this year. A smaller, yet still impressive parade runs through downtown Atlanta and has included enormous floats of Saint Patrick, shamrocks, and even the famous Kermit the Frog. This year Irish and IrishAmerican students plan to carry the world’s largest Irish flag through the parade.

Now to really get down to business for our readers, let’s talk about the booze. It’s hard to find a nightlife establishment that doesn’t bank on such a drinking holiday.

Mary’s in East Atlanta Village always has a themed party. A few doors down My Sister’s Room brings in special guest Bitch (of Bitch & Animal, Shortbus fame) and has a few giveaways, flip

cup games, and drink specials to keep patrons celebrating from 3PM to close.

Patrons that you typically see sipping bourbon straight up are down with the amateurs Irish car bombing their hearts out. Irish pubs abound if you want to rub shoulders with the heterovariety.

Limerick Junction in North Highland typically has live music and is sure to be spilling into a Highland bar crawl. Fado’s in Buckhead is fully prepared for the epic Paddython 2012 that will start at 7AM and includes a whiskey/meal pairing, U2 cover band, Irish dancers, and my personal favorite, bagpipers.

If the idea of a stranger’s green puke on your shoes makes you want to curl up in a ball until March 18th, you can keep the celebration within your own walls. Whether its curling up with your boyfriend watching Boondock Saints or reliving the college days with a raging house party, Saint Patrick’s Day beverages are easy to make and pack a punch (and stain your carpet so believe me, roll up the Persian rugs).

So buy some streamers, dust off the punch bowl, and release your inner bartender. It’s already amateur night anyway, right?

david atlanta | 21

Green Party Punch Nothing says nostalgia like a big bowl of sugary, alcoholic punch being ladeled into plastic party cups. This doesn’t necessarily fit the bill of traditional Irish spirits but it’s green, self-serving, and gives you a chance to use the crystal punch bowl you inherited from Grandma Sue. Combine 1 can of limeade, 1 can of lemonade, and 2 (2 liter) bottles of Sprite or whatever lemon-lime soda you’re into.

Stir in a bottle of rum. I’d say a 750 mL bottle but you know, it’s all relative.

Mix in two pints of lime sherbert.

Serve in small, clear plastic cups that remind you of a school dance.

Green Beer What says Saint Patrick’s Day more than green beer? It is absolutely necessary for a get together and absolutely simple to make.

Don’t fall for any special holiday brews that pop up at the grocery store with a green tint, just dig through your fridge for any pale (preferably Irish) beer.

Pour the beer into a clear glass or mug with as little foam as possible.

Dip 6 drops of green food coloring into the beer.

Stir gently, avoiding foam formation.

Irish Coffee You’ve been partying hard all night, your eyelids are drooping, and your guests have created a new game that combines Twister and a karaoke machine. Do you try to keep up by slamming more car bombs and ultimately falling asleep at the kitchen table? Do you drink an entire pot of coffee and destroy the well-maintained buzz? Irish Coffee is the only solution.

Combine 1 ½ ounces of Irish Whiskey (I prefer Jameson) with 6 ounces of hot coffee and 1 teaspoon of brown sugar.

Stir gently until the sugar fully dissolves.

Fold into as much or as little heavy cream to the top as your waistline allows. Do not mix it in!

Irish Car Bomb

Midori Sour

My personal 21 year old drink of choice, the Irish car bomb, is fun (or an exercise in anxiety management if you’re like me), creamy, and sweet: just like your date. Beware sipping or even breathing too much because the longer the liquids mix, the more it will curdle and taste like, well, curdled Baileys.

This isn’t a classic Saint Patrick’s Day drink by any means but its easy to make, green, and one of my favorites. I mean really, I had to struggle to make it more than one step.

Pour ½ a shot of Bailey’s Irish Cream with ½ a shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey on top.

Pour Guinness ¾ of the way to the top of a pint glass.

Drop the Bailey’s/Jameson concoction into the Guinness and chug.

Wipe the tan colored foamstache that will have inevitably formed around your mouth.

Fill a tall glass with ice.

Mix in 1 ounce of Midori melon liqueur, 2 ounces of Sprite, and 1 ounce whiskey sour mix. Stir.

Emerald Isle Martini The classier guests in the room may prefer to hold their drinks between two fingers rather than chug a beer and belch creamy liqueur.

Combine 2 ½ ounces of gin, ½ ounce of crème de menthe, and 3 dashes in a shaker with ice. Stir.

Strain into a martini glass and pop in a green maraschino cherry, sprig of mint, or green sugar rim.

Hopefully this small drink menu will help get the party started this Saint Patty’s Day. Here at David we want to remind you this March 17th to wear green, get lucky, and most importantly, drive sober and safely.

Growing Pains

“O

H NO HE DIDN’T” were the words that came to mind when I heard Kirk Cameron on CNN discussing why he thinks “homosexuality is unnatural”. Let me explain right quick. Kirk Cameron was a super cute teenage heartthrob in the 80s when he played a starring role as Mike Seaver, on the then hit T.V. show Growing Pains.

Sorry but YES, I had a HUGE crush on him even to the point where I sent him a “fan mail” thinking he’ll actually read it. (What?

I was a bright eyed teeny tiny teenager myself.) Well that “crush” has been officially crushed! The “born again” actor who’s now 41 told CNN’s Piers Morgan that being gay is also “… destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization.”

Now the reason I said “Oh no he didn’t” is because even though people have the right to express their opinions in this country, I thought it was very irresponsibly done, not to mention… um… destructive. If he would just look out through the window of REALITY, he’ll clearly see that there is way too much homophobic hate crime going on in this world plus a slew of gay teenagers committing suicide for him to carelessly say that.

During this discussion, he also addresses

30 | davidatlanta

why he’s against gay marriage. Sadly, he uses that OLD excuse about how “God” defined marriage a long time ago in the Garden of Good and Evil by Adam and Eve. Um, WHY would a grown ass man who claims himself to be a Christian use THAT story as God’s best example of what a “marriage” is supposed to be. That’s a WEAK example.

First of all, did Adam really “choose” Eve? Or were they put together? Don’t answer that. For the sake of a rational and healthy argument, let’s just say they did choose.

OK well according to the Bible, not only were these two naked humans wondering around aimlessly in the garden trying to figure out what the hell was going on, Eve was TALKING to serpents and disobeying God. Never mind that she was TOLD not to eat from the tree of life, but she obviously felt like “well, this ‘serpent’ makes more sense”. THEN… one of their badass kids, Cain, killed his one and only brother!

And to make all of this WORSE, supposedly because of Eve’s sin, the rest of the world is suffering or in “sin” because of her. And THIS is what people choose to use as an example of what God defines a “marriage” ? Um… so yeah, I used to LOVE to watch GROWING PAINS. It was a great show.

Let me tell you something honey, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, God, the REAL God, not the mistaken religious version of God, knows exactly what he’s doing and created you for a reason. You are perfect… just the way you are. The only thing that would be “unnatural” is if you try to change that! The end.

Until next week, DON’T read the girls, instead read The Brent Star Report!

Van Gogh Cool Peach Vodka

I

can’t speak for everybody on this, but I tend to pair my drinks based on the season. Unfortunately, I have no idea what season we are even in anymore due to this crazy weather. When it’s winter I tend to go more with heavier drinks like whiskey or a warm scotch, and as spring approaches I tend to start moving back to my lighter vodka drinks. They are always more refreshing, and a good vodka goes a long way.

Van Gogh has over 20 flavors of different vodkas, and as the summer heat quickly approaches us, we should all be scouting out our new drinks for the season to sip poolside as we ogle sexy boys in swimsuits. I highly recommend the new Van Gogh Cool Peach Vodka.

For all us “Georgia Peaches” this drink should fit right at home with us. The overwhelmingly peachy drink is far from the normal peach vodka. Tasting it, you get sweet almond notes and it finishes with a bright kick of mint. Cool, refreshing, unique… it’s a home run.

Van Gogh Cool Peach Vodka is served locally at The Cockpit (465 Boulevard SE Atlanta, GA 30312).

Review

Music Review

Idina Menzel My Barefoot Best Friend

W

by Adam Shrout

ith candles lit and a glass of wine, I was transformed from the couch in my living room in Atlanta, to a seat in Koerner Hall at The Royal Conservatory in Toronto, Canada serenaded by my friend Idina Menzel and The Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony.

Throughout her performance, Menzel shares highlights from her life that engage even the most die-hard of fans. From the hilarious comingof-age college story where she tries to seduce her gay professor with Cole Porter’s “Love For

Sale” and him asking her if she even listened to the lyrics, to the 2008 Kennedy Center Honors, where she honored Barbara Streisand and proceeds to sing a medley of “Funny Girl” and “Don’t Rain on my Parade”, Menzel shares her emotions and laughter with the audience.

Menzel shares how she went from being a wedding singer in Long Island to having her last show on New Year’s Eve 1995 because she got her first professional job in a little off-Broadway show called Rent. It was a life-changing time for her because not only did she meet her husband in the cast, but she also got to meet creator/ composer Jonathan Larson who at 35 passed away the night of the dress rehearsal. She follows this story with “No Day But Today”, performed in a way that makes the listener think of every action, whether right or wrong, they’ve ever done, and see how they’ve made them learn and grow.

Menzel goes on to share her experiences of being on Glee, singing her Broadway-inspired version of Lady Gaga’s mass-hit “Poker Face”, and segues into a wonderful duet with her (yummy) husband Taye Diggs called “Where or When”. Menzel, who may be best known for her role in the Broadway smash Wicked, sings “For Good” and “Defying Gravity”, the latter of which demonstrates how her voice soars. She ends the night singing “Tomorrow”, which she dedicates to her mother and father.

Overall, Idina Menzel Live: Barefoot at the Symphony is an experience that transforms a person from wherever they are listening and puts them front and center at the Royal Conservatory in Toronto. You’ll laugh with her, sing with her, and feel like you’ve really made a new friend.

Happy 100th, Bayard Rustin!

T

by Joe Beasley

his Saturday will mark the centennial birthday of Bayard Rustin, a civil rights legend whose contributions played an integral part in the success of the Civil Rights Movement.

22 years before the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, where Martin Luther King Jr. made his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech, Rustin planned a march on the capital to end segregation in the armed forces. The plan worked so well that President Roosevelt signed an executive order to end segregation in the military, and the march never took place.

Unfortunately, Rustin’s accomplishments have been overlooked and unrecognized and he was blacklisted from participating in the movement for many years because Rustin was gay. Civil Rights leaders and enemies alike used his sexuality to undermine his reputation as an organizer.

When Representative Adam Clayton Powell, upon hearing of planned Civil Rights demonstrations at the 1960 Democratic Convention, threatened to ‘out’ a fictitious sexual relationship between Rustin and King – it caused an end to the marches and the resignation of Rustin from his post at the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.

Rustin’s nonviolent tactics were molded by Mohandas Gandhi, as Rustin was an admirer and aware of it’s immense success. Through nonviolence, Rustin lead a team of 14 men on bus rides all through the South to test the new Supreme Court ruling banning segregation on interstate travel. The law was being violated as Rustin and other Freedom Riders were arrested several times.

Rustin was brought back into the Movement when leaders began planning for the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom and it was decided that Rustin would be the only planner that would be able to make the march successful.

The march was a success. Many deemed it the most successful march in American History, and it is thought that this was an important part of the passing of the Civil Rights Act one year later.

After the march A. Philip Randolph and Rustin were featured on the cover of LIFE magazine as the organizers of the march, much to the disapproval of civil rights leaders.

In the 1970’s and 80’s, Rustin became involved in gay rights, testifying for New York’s Gay Rights Bill, among other things. Rustin died on August 24, 1987, of a perforated appendix.

As the attitudes towards LGBTQI persons are becoming more tolerant, Rustin’s name is becoming more and more recognizable in Civil Rights history. The 2003 documentary Brother Outsider which told the story of his life and legacy won wide acclaim, and can be seen on Netflix.

For the last 10 years, a breakfast is held in his honor on King’s birthday. This summer, Charis Books is hosting a three night series highlighting community leaders, Rustin being one of them. In addition, the gay activist group Get Equal is in the works to draft an executive order to be signed by the President to recognize the contributions of Rustin in the Civil Rights Movement.

FairyScopes

ARIES (March 20 – April 19): Take a critical look at your work habits and start a process of making revisions; be helpful to others, but remember to get your own work done first. Reconsider your long-range goals. A radical shift may offer better, more lucrative opportunities

TAURUS (April 20 – May 20): If you can act free of resentment, fear and anger you can do almost anything and the big risks will pay off for you. If those three problems are in the way, challenge yourself to understand why and to let go.

GEMINI (May 21- June 20): Your brain is going on strike so rely instead on your heart. Take time out to connect with the people you love, and especially with yourself. An adult is someone who takes responsibility and has stopped blaming his or her parents.

CANCER (June 21- July 22): You can’t un-say what’s been said, but apologies and some critical reflection can do wonders for your relationships, personal and social. You don’t need to beat yourself up. We all have room for improvement.

LEO (July 23 – August 22): Being super sexy is a distraction from more durable opportunities. Redirect your irresistible seductive charms to making important career connections. Your willingness to take on hard work and challenge is your strong suit. Work in some modesty and you’ll go far!

VIRGO (August 23 – September 22): Erotic explorations may have less than thrilling results but most experiments offer the benefit of experience if not perceptible success. The next few weeks are for rethinking your relationships, but beware of making hasty changes.

LIBRA (September 23 – October 22): Easy answers to spiritual questions shouldn’t be trusted.

It’s too easy to fall into dogmas, especially if they reflect or react against family teachings. Keep digging to see where and how those feelings got so deeply entrenched.

SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21): Smoothing out arguments with friends does not mean putting them under a pavement! Be mature enough to keep principals above interpersonal tiffs and your own bruised ego… er… feelings. Being nice might be work, but it will pay off.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20): Beating the boss in a battle could cost you the war. With a little self-effacing modesty and a lot of hard work you could win him or her over and gain a powerful ally.

CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19): It feels like you can barely keep up with the treadmill, but you got the power! Still, what to do with it? Your best clue: Ask your 9-year-old self what you really want to be when you grow up.

AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18): Bureaucratic snafus can get expensive. Make sure your papers are in order! A bad case of foot-in-mouth is headed your way. Not only is quiet mediation a safe retreat, but it should offer profound, even transformative insights.

PISCES (February 19 – March 19): No relationship is perfect and it’s too easy to find fault.

Being or finding a partner is all about trying to be a better person. When discussing problems be gentle on yourself and your darling.

Bitch! Session

I think that Romney, who acts like a robot, should be married to Newt’s equally robotic third wife. Robots for President!

What’s a JCPenney?

Hey, drivers in the turning lanes. WATCH OUT FOR PEDESTRIANS TRYING TO CROSS!!! I’m sick of trying to dodge you guys!

Congratulations, you did drag one time (poorly).

You clearly deserve everybody to bow down to you now.

Stop sleeping with my friends!

I love teasing guys, I make them work for the goods.

Drag Queens that expect to be tipped should be fired. Sometimes you’re just NOT worth my dollar, Sweetie!

Just cause I’m Indian doesn’t mean I’ll sleep with every Caucasian asshole. You and your white ass can drown in your own superiority complex.

Some of you boys really can’t be that picky. You may think you can be picky, but really… uhm… no. Take what you can get.

Sending me nude photos when I am at work is totally unfair.

Not only can I not get off, I become totally sexually frustrated, I also get no work done. Grrrrr.

I moved here to get away from liars and cheats. I suppose I came to the wrong city, huh?

Call me a Celtiphobe, but until your drunk white ass shows me an Irish passport, I will continue to consider St. Patty’s a poor excuse for American mutts to get drunk, pinch asses, and pretend to have an ethnicity & culture.

While we’re on the topic, I HATE The Pogues. And Floggging Molly.

Kim Zolciak is my girl and all, but dang, the clip of her new country song was SO DAMN AWFUL I thought I was going to jump off a building. Stick with TV girl.

The annoyingly fine line of being somebody’s friend and wanting them to plow you in the ass.

Funny how I am always the one expected to reach out to you first… did you momma not teach you that it takes two people to make something work?

I can’t wait to throw my election night 2012 Presidential party. I will invite all my GOP friends so we can video tape them crying when they lose to Obama, again.
