martinis

stop the madness

a martini is gin and a breeze of vermouth.

for the love of whatever you hold holy stop "tini"izing drinks.

i just heard about a pumpkintini. what the fuck people? just cut it out. if you dont have the balls to drink a martini, then drink the candiassshit you want but have the gumption to not try to glamorize yourself.

you can read about the martini here

you'll note from wikipedia the comment about offending martini purists. to be sure, i am not one. i drink scotch neat and when i drink gin, i drink gin on the rocks like my dad, like a man. i am just sick to death about all these tinifuck drinks. some of them dont even have gin, in fact most of them dont.

the vodka martini is ok. not because of bond, but because it is calling itself out as what it is and it has been around for a real long time.

admittedly there are not many y-chromosomes participating in the recent charade, but the younger bucks are not getting a history. i was in a bar when a gallant chap ordered a martini and the fucking bartender said "what kind". this is sad, escpecially from a purveyor.

pretty soon there will be an orangetini which will be vodka and orange juice.

wait for it.

jabberwocky

twas brillig and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabe
all mimsy were the borogoves
and the momraths outgrabe

beware the jabberwock my son
the jaws that bite the claws that catch
beware the jubjub bird and shun
the frumious bandersnatch

he took his vorpal sword in hand
longtime the manxome foe he sought
so rested he by the tumtum tree
and stood awhile in thought

and as is uffish thought he stood
the jabberwock with eyes of flame
came whiffling through the tulgy wood
and burbled as it came

one two one two and through and through
the vorpal blade went snicker-snack
he left it dead and with its head
he went galumphing back

and hast thou slain the jabberwock
come to my arms my beamish boy
o frabjous day, callooh callay
he chortled in his joy

twas brillig and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabe
all mimsy were the borogoves
and the momeraths outgrabe.

new car v. used car

i can not state it any more clearly than this: if you buy a new car, you are a sap. all you are doing is putting money in the dealers pocket and losing money on the car.

it is fairly safe to say that you lose almost 1/3 the money you paid for the car as soon as you take possession of it. i know about the wicked high end cars and yes there are the one or two models in such high demand that this does not apply to them, but for the most part, the high cost of cars gets credited to the dealerships.

if you could order your car straight from the manufacturer, it would be significantly cheaper. i guess this is always the way but with so much money being spent, why has it stayed this way?

i have had tremendous success with used cars. i have not paid more than 4k for a vehicle except for the only new vehicle i purchased...a dodge dakota the first year they came out. i forget, i think it was 18k or something.

the pickup did not sour me, except for the haggling at the purchase point. i used to think car salesmen deserved the bad rep they got until i was introduced to realtors. car salesmen are mother theresa compared to those assfucking realtors.

anyway, used cars, yeah, i said used, not pre-owned, used cars rock it. i dont care how much money you make, it does not matter. the more expensive the car, the more cars you can have and afford to own.

i would rather have several vehicles instead of one expensive one. used cars allow for this.

also, you dont care what happens to a used car.

i have a 99 caddy. it looks awesome. it cost 4k. the cpu blew, it cost $170 to fix and for the last two years, running super. if something happened to it, i can reach into my pocket and replace it quite easily. i dont care if the kids slam a door into it or puke in the back seat.

i dont care if some asshole keys me cuz i was an asshole to him.

i dont care if it needs a tranny job cuz ill just go buy a different car.

you jerkbags out there who say " i cant deal with someone elses problem" or whatever, you are just loser jerkbags

if you switch to a used vehicle, you will aid in the lowering of new car cost, which then lowers used car cost.

you should take pleasure in letting an ignorant person, be they able to afford or simply really stupid, buy a new car for you so you can own it after them for a fraction of the price.

events

wtf is with "events" now. i know ad people try to fuck over the stupid with the name changes, just like all you republicans jumped on the idiot wagon with the evil people in charge now with all their smearing of the truth utilizing ad techniques (which just goes to show that the majority of republicans are stupid fucking idiots easily swayed by words)

but why cant we revolt? dont go to anything called an event, its just a sale for any of you republicans out there who have not caught on yet.

rise up and fuck these admen in the ass with this shit. openly revolt against any seller who uses this paint job. "come to our holiday event" "now, visit us during our 3-day event" it is a fucking sale, and by sale i do not mean a reduction in prices.

oh yeah, support anyone who will bring up the the people in charge of our nation right now on war crimes and whenever you can, call for the impeachment of the fucking morons you voted for. stand up and admit it and then right your wrong.
