Hood Father

Idiot. Osama bin Laden and Pol Pot were both fathers. How does that absolve them of anything? Or cause me to care in the least?

As if him being “the CEO of a health insurance company” is just incidental somehow. If I murder 100,000+ people as he did, it doesn’t matter that I took really good care of my pets or helped an old lady cross the street. How can these people be such utter dumbasses?

Miltonian

ZZ Top is not a band exactly known for being poets, but I think these verses are pretty damn fine; it’s like if Milton were alive now with all his bombast and glorious overreach:

Well, I was movin’ down the road
In my V-8 Ford
I had my boots shined up
And my sideburns lowered

With my New York brim
With my gold tooth displayed
Nobody give me trouble
‘Cause they know I got it made

That’s from “I’m Bad, I’m Nationwide” of course. Though I was listening to the Dwight Yoakam version. It paints a vivid picture in very few words — and that is exactly what writing at its best should do.

Losing It

GAWDAMN I fucking love love love how pissy the retarded right is getting about the UHC shitstain being removed from the breathing population.

After January 6, after their killing of women with abortion bans, after their talk of deportation and extermination, how does it fucking feeeeeel, losers? Cry those beautiful tears; you’re cute when you cry! Haha!

UHC Ya

Essentially, to expand on the below, most of the right imagines themselves as the UHC CEO and not as someone that CEO has denied some medication or treatment to increase profits.

The reality is that the UHC CEO was responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths at the very least. So, justice was served.

Look at the Babies Cry

It’s funny how much right-aligned people are now wringing their hands and crying like little babies about how liberals like me are rejoicing that the UHC shitheel got himself assassinated. Never mind their own support for deliberately killing women with abortion bans and celebrating doofuses like Clive Bundy et al. The below, though, is how I (and many others) feel.

When we start using their own tactics against them, suddenly those brawny manly men and hardy pioneer women become little fraidy-cats and want Daddy to come protect and save them. Hilarious.

If the corporate MBA types and their follow-on bootlickers, brown-nosers and sycophants hadn’t made life so very terrible for so many Americans, no one would be celebrating the death of that dipshit. But there are a few thousand more CEOs and execs who need to be — and deserve to be — put up against the wall.

You can tell when the right is afraid because they start whining like three-year-olds. And that’s always entertaining to me because otherwise they spend so much time pretending to be hard-boiled and tough. But the minute they get a little bit scared, they sound exactly like the leftist dorks with their trigger warning and safe spaces.

But the UHC CEO got the best trigger warning of all time. Let’s hope there are many more.

Deserving It

Not only do I not give a fuck that the UHC healthcare CEO scumbag was killed, I would’ve been honored to pull the trigger myself 1.

Again: fuck that guy.

  1. I would not want to suffer the consequences for doing that, but nevertheless….

Inkies

It’s still odd to me how many women are like, “She’s impossibly skinny!” about some completely normal-looking woman. I’m old enough to remember when 80% of women were as thin the person they’re talking about, or thinner.

That is not good change, that someone with a completely normal BMI is said to be in some impossible-to-achieve state. Put down the damn Twinkies and you too can achieve the impossible. It’s like a miracle and stuff.
