Your name is not AM nor Links!!!!

[gaijin]

what is going on? I come here late and I see no AM links, no Friday unFunnies? Did the rapture happen?

[UnCivilServant]

I'm ahppy with them forgoing the links fiasco for one day, along with the unfunnies for one week.

[Slammer]

THIS ranting guy in a birthday suit wants links.

[Lord Humungus]

Now Reason is just dicking with us.

[Neoliberal Kochtopus]

The intern must be late to work this morning.

[Snark Plissken]

Zevon, Zevon needs his coffee....

[Rich]

"Wake the bleep up!"

[Outlaw]

Xenon, wake the fuck up!

[robc]

Maybe they fired Lucy again.

[sarcasmic]

Uh, what?

[Ted S.]

What's his opinion on electronic pull-tabs?

[Tim]

"Boardwalk Fire Destroys Parts of Recently Rebuilt Jersey Shore"

AND AM LINKS!

[EDG reppin' LBC]

I'd vote for him. Probably better then the usual gang of idiots.

[BakedPenguin]

Yeah, I doubt he'd be any worse than the rest of them.

[thom]

Doesn't Minneapolis have IRV? He'll probably get some votes.

"Boardwalk Fire Destroys Parts of Recently Rebuilt Jersey Shore"

Unfortunately, Governor Arbuckle escaped without injury.

[Ted S.]

That's offensive to Roscoe Arbuckle!

[Rich]

OK, here's what I think has happened to the Links: A Senate panel on Thursday approved a measure defining "journalist", and H&R bloggers didn't make the cut.

[Snark Plissken]

Nick did, because he's such a cosmotarian. Unfortunately, he's too high and might to post MLs. That and he's got a terrible hangover from last night's cocktail party.

[Rich]

Hey, maybe he's making a reason.tv edition of MLs!

[Snark Plissken]

Which he will post at 1 AM.

[Tim]

We should all send in absentee ballots for thie guy. So what if we don't live there? This is America!

[Rich]

Right on! We *deserve* a vote!

[gaijin]

yeah, but that suit. We don;t need to see the mayor's junk. see: Anthony Weiner

[Swiss Servator - Gnome Slave]

ATTICA! ATTICA! ATTICA! ....um, MORNING LINKS! MORNING LINKS! MORNING LINKS!

[tarran]

You call this slop? Real slop has got chunks of things in it.

This is more like gruel!

[Gbob]

Dude is willing to skip going to strip clubs for what he believes in. Say what you will, at least Wagner has an ethos.

[RBS]

That's great and all but where is Suderman's review of The Family?

[sarcasmic]

I'm about ready to spooge my links all over this page...

[Rich]

OK, you Fist.

[Rich]

And his campaign ad is...unusual.

But are his methods ... unsound?

[Enough About Palin]

Frankly, sir, I don't see any method.

[Ken Shultz]

If the next libertarian presidential candidate makes campaign commercials that are even slightly less embarrassing than that, we should all be grateful.

[sarcasmic]

My links are getting rather blue...

[sarcasmic]

DAMN YOU I WAS GOING TO POST THAT!

[Brett L]

So, I want to be remembered as too slow on the trigger.

[Floridian]

That's not news. We have know about the escaped monkeys for a long time here. Now did you hear Voyager left the solar system? Completely new story. Never been done before.

[Brett L]

Ok guys, I'm stopping in as I prepare for my wedding. I think this is how I want to be remembered if the new opinions my wife gives me are too different for me to be my old self.

[Heroic Mulatto]

Why are we not discussing the cute chick in the video?

Homos.

[Brett L]

I blame racism, except for John. She's too skinny for him. But I do like his taste. I'd vote for him.

[sarcasmic]

Here goes...

Youth continues to be wasted on the young.

My first guess was Bella Thorne.

[Heroic Mulatto]

DAT ASS.

Heartbroken widow being forced to demolish treehouse built by her Vietnam vet husband ten years ago
Husband built play house for grandchildren before his death
Family told 20ft structure violates 17 building codes

Mrs Erickson claimed that when she asked how she could fix the violations listed, a city spokesman told her: 'How do we give you a permit for a tree house? We don't have codes to permit a tree house.'

That which is not permitted is forbidden.

[Brett L]

No codes for a treehouse? Then what is it in violation of?

[Andrew S.]

Article F, Section Y, Subsection T, Clause W of the code.

So, the Daily Mail is just taking Reddit posts and turning them into articles now?

[sarcasmic]

And something about Warty climbing trees in Florida.

[Brett L]

It will be nice to know that Zack Snyder is giving Ben Affleck a chance to succeed as Batman.

Instead, he will be older, grizzled, and burnt out. At an investor meeting on Thursday, Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara described Affleck's Batman as "tired and weary and seasoned and been doing it for a while," reports Variety.

[The Late P Brooks]

I'm stopping in as I prepare for my wedding.

DON"Y DO IT.

RUN AWAY, RUN AWAAAAAAY

[UnCivilServant]

Yes, don't go near the comentariat, we're disturbed, warped mockeries of the natural order.

[Brett L]

Well, no matter my failings, the kid doesn't deserve to be a bastards. Bye guys. See ya tuesday.

[Rich]

Tor appeals principally to botnets, commonly used by spammers; those who peddle or seek pornography; and those who use a marketplace that has been called "Amazon.com for illegal drugs."

Surprise, surprise, surprise!

[Brett L]

This is a bad thing?

[Rich]

Well, let me try a different teaser: 60 percent of the budget of the Tor Project comes from the federal government, including a whopping 40 percent from the Department of Defense.

typinh is hsrd.

For the first time in several years, we're all getting to see what kind of quarterback Tom Brady is when he's not surrounded by the best group of offensive talent in the league. It sure makes a big difference, doesn't it?

The Patriots are just lucky they were playing the horrendous Jets. Any kind of halfway decent team and they would have lost.

[Andrew S.]

Halfway decent teams and they'd be 0-2.

The Patriots' window is about to slam shut. The only reason it hasn't shut already is the rest of the AFC East is terrible.

[Paul.]

I say we give him a shot.

[Paul.]

And give her a shot at communications director.
