The photo is a red herring.

I guess I need new contact lenses. It looks like a white chick tossing back a margarita.

[Jason]

It's actually a "flip" or a "fizz".

[mdb]

pregnant women

[mdb]

you can't say pregnant women in a post?

[Pip]

Has she chosen the father's name yet?

[Tacos mmm...]

She must be drinking for two now.

[R C Dean]

Tune in to find out which protected class Mangu-Ward has recently become a member of.*

She discovered she has a Kenyan ancestor, and is officially an African-American?

[Janus]

Worse: She discovered a Keynesian ancestor, and is actually part-economist.

[Abdul]

Tiger Woods' mistresses?

[Virginia]

Preggers is the new disabled.

[John]

Good call. Good the mangu ward.

[Timon19]

This is almost as good as "ad homonym".

[-]

Nothing will ever be as good as "ad homonym."

[John]

You really are the the biggest dick who posts on here. And not in a good or fun way the way Fluffy is a dick. I assume you are the same shithead who owns the "Oh No Not This Again" franchise.

Are you really that bothered by your inability to join in the conversation?

[-]

Take that, Timon19, you dick.

[Warty]

I wasn't trying to be a dick. I thought "ad homonym" was beautifully serendipitous.

[John]

I know you are not. Sorry Warty.

[-]

No homonym.

[Timon19]

Un-wad your panties.

I've disagreed with you vehemently recently. Other times I've agreed with you, and sometimes I've said so in threads.

It really was a tremendous accidental coining of a term. Thus, none of your other errors (which are legion) will ever live up to that one, which has the advantage of being pretty damn good.

[Greer]

I'm thinking calling the picture a red herring is a red herring. She's an alcoholic.

[Fire Tiger]

I voting coke fiend. My first choice was she joined the "I got breast implants and now none of my male coworkers look me in the eye" group, but I am not certain that has been qualified as a disability yet.

[Heroic Mulatto]

She's taking that medication that makes you orgasm every time you sneeze.

[Pro Libertate]

Congratulations!

[Warty]

God, she's cute. And I mean that in a totally non-sexist way. I think.

[John]

She is madly cute. I have always had a mad crush on Mangu Ward. That picture makes me forgive her for wanting to eat Kanag and Roo.

[.]

[KMW creeps out now]

[Warty]

So are you dash?

[Tacos mmm...]

So you're into the Funny Looking Women. Nothing wrong with that. It's where every true lady's man ends up after he's had his share of traditional hotties. Personally, though, this is still a bit too close to this for my taste.

[John]

That is a bad picture of her. And no, she is not classically pretty. And yes, I kind of like non traditional looking women. And also I am a sucker for good skin.

[Tacos mmm...]

That is true. She is also much improved in profile, and may have green eyes.

[.]

[KMW continues to creep out, hires bodyguard]

[SIV]

The Reason staff portrait is a great picture of KMW.

[sloopyinca]

Tits or GTFO.

[-]

the man with the mustache is doing a show

And Reason will be there to ride the 'stache.

[Fist of Etiquette]

I think she lost a toe. The Reason lion got it. While she was hitching it up.

[General Butt Naked]

Trying this shit sober tonight...Gawd, I hope it ain't as bad as I think it's going to be.

I don't even have any cough medicine in the house.

[General Butt Naked]

Where are my fucking manners.

Katherine congrats on your upcoming parasite extraction...I hope it's a squirrel.

[Fiscal Meth]

I'm high on l.I.F.E tonight, which is an acronym for a bunch of wierd chemicals. I dunno the guy in the bathroom told me what it stood for but I was too drunk to remember...oh that's right, I forgot I'm drunk too I feel wierd

[General Butt Naked]

Anyone on tonight, Fist, Meth?

[Fist of Etiquette]

So this is where this shit's going down? Fine, whatever. The other Stossel post was full of L7's anyway.

[Fist of Etiquette]

My internets are on the fritz so who knows how long imma gonna be able to stay with it.

[General Butt Naked]

Mr. Stossel, why do you hate the handicapped?

[Fist of Etiquette]

LBF = lying boyfriend

[Fist of Etiquette]

So the snake is causing his seizures?

[General Butt Naked]

i usually seize up when a giant snake cut off my air supply(not the band)

[General Butt Naked]

Stand up and take a bow Mr. ...Oh wait.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Yeah, yeah, Stossel didn't ask your life story.

[General Butt Naked]

They would of put me in an oven the nazi bastards.

[General Butt Naked]

Where is the Reason chick, I want to look at her disfigured alien parasite!

[Fist of Etiquette]

End of the show, according to the post.

She's a show stopper.

[General Butt Naked]

She's a show stopper.

The squirrel?

[General Butt Naked]

That was insensitive, I meant disfigured alien squirrel parasite...sorry Ms. Mangu hyphen Ward.

[General Butt Naked]

You can not hire anyone...just don't tell anyone your racist ass reason why.

[General Butt Naked]

If you are all better, then you are not disabled.

[General Butt Naked]

Sssssttttttosssel stuttered, really?

[General Butt Naked]

Weed...'Stache smokes herb for his stuttering, I knew it!

[Fist of Etiquette]

Wow, way to sneer at the word "blind", John.

[Fiscal Meth]

Sneering is his stutter cure

[General Butt Naked]

Wow, a bureaucracy that has confusing and contradictory laws that are used by parasitic lawyers to wring small businesses out of their money...what a surprise.

[General Butt Naked]

They are accessible, you dumbshit.

[Fist of Etiquette]

I think Stossel's head is going to explode. AND THEN HE'LL BE HAPPY THE ADA IS THERE!

[General Butt Naked]

Headless-Americans have been kicked around long enough!

[Fiscal Meth]

I find it easier to imagine the heads themselves being kicked around.

[General Butt Naked]

And funnier!

[General Butt Naked]

Dude if you can't do a job because of any reason you shouldn't be hired.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Businesses really should be required to hire an all-disabled staff. Including law firms.

[General Butt Naked]

I think you are on to something there.

[Fiscal Meth]

I'll help disable the lawyers if you want

[General Butt Naked]

Just looked up slimy in my Webster's and there was a pic of the lawyer in the fringe leather coat.

[Fist of Etiquette]

I even gave Methy a link and he still won't come over here. I blame cap.

[General Butt Naked]

No, the liveblog is spreading...

I'm going to start going to other websites to do this, like Slate

[Fist of Etiquette]

No, he's being a DICK about it.

[Fiscal Meth]

just a little disabled that's all

[Fist of Etiquette]

Yeah, the parents have a disability. It's limited eyesight due to sudden dollar signs in place of their corneas.

[General Butt Naked]

People are dicks, I haven't had it that hard but I could never call sic an attorney on some bball camp place for kids.

Geez GBN will fuck up your village and eat your parasitic children but damn.

[Fist of Etiquette]

That shirt and jacket combo caused me to seize. ADA, save me!

[General Butt Naked]

Where is your snake?

Go get your fucking snake-box!

[Fist of Etiquette]

Dr. House is going to tell me wearing a CONSTRICTOR around me neck might just cause a loss of consciousness.

[General Butt Naked]

No answer for that Mr. I totally want to have intercourse with Steve Segal.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Kindle stumped Tom.

[General Butt Naked]

His name isn't tom, it's " Thomas "I totally don't fuck sheep" Frankovich.

Or; Mr. I totally want to have intercourse with Steven Segal.

[General Butt Naked]

We have to take care of each other including you, you slimy fuck...

If he were to be accused of fucking sheep, Mr. Thomas E. Frankovich that is, I would not be surprised.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Slim T's cured Stossel's stutter.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Ugh, I hate audience Q&A.

[Fiscal Meth]

What the hell's goin on here?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Finally.

[Fiscal Meth]

STAY ALIVE...I WILL FIND YOU...I will find you

[General Butt Naked]

Dude, don't you have a refresh button?

[Fiscal Meth]

U mean like ...a beer button?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Battling anecdotal evidence.

[Fiscal Meth]

Splattering conceptual Jizzum?

[Fiscal Meth]

Dismembering specious argumentation

[Fiscal Meth]

Splattering congressional jizzum

[Fiscal Meth]

When this says "Well Actually" it means "I'm about to lie my ass off"

[Fiscal Meth]

The Grammys already reward bad actors

[General Butt Naked]

Whoa dude, you need to be on the DXM episode.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Those bar stools Stossel has them on are too high. Midgets can't use them.

[General Butt Naked]

How did they prop Thomas "I totally don't fuck sheep" Frankovich up there, I saw no crane in the studio.

Fake Cleavage, Woooo!

[Fist of Etiquette]

Abled persons, get your own damned laws.

[Fiscal Meth]

Abled people have dis-laws.

[General Butt Naked]

If we outlaw the abled only outlaws will have abilities!

[Fiscal Meth]

What's up with cami secret?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Great, the dickie was one of the few things men had for themselves, and now this.

[General Butt Naked]

I wonder if John got a motel room for this episode...Oh to be alone with the lovely Ms Mangu hyphen Ward

FAP FAP FAP

[Abled People's Union]

We prefer frivolous law suit impaired

[General Butt Naked]

Dude is not blind...he's looking into my soul.

[Fist of Etiquette]

If he's so blind, why is he wearing glasses? I smell a rat.

[General Butt Naked]

Katherine, in Africa, General Butt Naked is a noted midwife so if you need someone to deliver yer parasitic alien squirrel it would be an honor if I could do it.

[Fist of Etiquette]

It's John's child, you know.

[General Butt Naked]

DA6 MiaN6

[General Butt Naked]

that looked way cooler before I posted it...all demonic and shit...now it looks the ravings of a drunk, that's sober, oh well.

[Fiscal Meth]

Distaseful? IS his sense of taste hightened?

[General Butt Naked]

Again, sir, you are wearing glasses which makes your claims of blindness spurious at best.

[General Butt Naked]

She should sue Reason, and we could all drink!

[Fiscal Meth]

Fuck Id take some maternity leave

[General Butt Naked]

Dress up like Katherine and meet up with John, you will be knocked up in no time.

[Fist of Etiquette]

I'm just going to come right out and say it: I don't think those giant buttons on her outfit do a damn thing.

[Fist of Etiquette]

I camp out in those big stalls.

[Fiscal Meth]

Taxpayers Clapping about that?

[Fist of Etiquette]

OMG, she's going to be playing the pregnancy card more than she played the animated gif card.

[General Butt Naked]

GLASSES!!! Explain, please...curiosity to great...AARARGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!

[General Butt Naked]

Soul train commercial? On foxbiz...no black people watch foxbiz.

[General Butt Naked]

Oooh, I love it when he sits with the ginormous laws.

[General Butt Naked]

Spellcheck failed on ginormous and tripped on spellcheck...weird.

[Fist of Etiquette]

They pushed them to line their pockets as well.

[Fiscal Meth]

Bad intentions don't go right. The laws are the problem not the intention

[General Butt Naked]

Parasites! Fatten up the Fatcats!

[Fist of Etiquette]

I think he's going to close out the show with a few lawyer jokes.

[Fiscal Meth]

No wonder he hates b-b-barristers

[Fist of Etiquette]

ADA will get you for that.

[Fiscal Meth]

Putting the Commode in accommodations

[General Butt Naked]

It would suck to get stuck into one of those auto-toilets in a wheelchair.

[General Butt Naked]

Is libertarian covered under the ADA?

[Fist of Etiquette]

He's going camera to camera a la Olbermann.

[General Butt Naked]

You'd have to watch Olbermann to know that.

[Fist of Etiquette]

I got it from that Affleck skit. Not that watching SNL is any less shameful.

[General Butt Naked]

Who wants to hire a sue-happy dwarf with a sheep fucking lawyer...

[Fiscal Meth]

Do they do kids birthday parties?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Full disclosure: my seats at the new Consol Energy Center are right in front of a handicap seating section, which means I'm the last row before a high wall, which means I can stand the whole game if I want to. So there's how the ADA benefits me.

[General Butt Naked]

You lucky fucker.

[Subsidize Me!]

That's a huge win.

Where are your seats located in the arena? Did your price change significantly from last year?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Upper concourse, between a blue line and center red. They went up about fifty percent. Totally worth it for the boner I'm going to have every game day (well, a third of every home game days, since I split the seats with other douchebags).

So, in conclusion, Go Pens.

[Subsidize Me!]

Fuckin A, that's great. My dad has a friend with tickets on that level on the side opposite the press box, so we go to games here and there when the stars align (I live in fucking DC - thank god for Versus).

I can't wait to see how Martin and Michalek work out, as well as losing Guerin. This is the first time in a while I'm more interested in hockey in the fall than football.

[Lowdog]

Michalek was a hard worker for us here in Phoenix. Too bad the ownership situation is so fucked up here, or he might have stayed.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Wait a minute, are you fiscal meth?

[General Butt Naked]

If not, it raises the scary possibility that someone else has read these things.

[Fist of Etiquette]

The internets are full of perverts who read other people's personal comments.

[Subsidize Me!]

Nope. Is FM another misguided libertarian Pittsburgher?

[Fiscal Meth]

yesguided yesertarian noburgher

[General Butt Naked]

All right kiddies, the word for tonight is "parasite". If you hear that word look to your screen because General Butt Naked has a treat for you. He will vigorously shake his large black balls for you and yell WOOOOOOOO!!!!
