Hey, at least I was in the top 20 finalists

[HereSince1628]

1. Hey, it wasn't Paul Ryan--we're counting our blessings.

[bluedigger]

2. If I had known how important it was to you, I'd have retired my crown.

[Teamster Jeff]

3. I know how you feel

This year once again I did not receive a MacArthur Genius Grant.

[libodem]

4. And I didn't get the 'creative' MacAuthur

I so richly deserve. I'm pretty sure the onion stole my mother mary rant.

[ZombieHorde]

5. For what it's worth, I voted for you.

Maybe next year.

6. I thought only women were judged by their appearance and held to an impossible standard . . .

I'm sure it's all political. You have to know people.

Also insert something about inner beauty and personality.

11. That poor guy is being objectified

literally, that picture of him is an object.

I don't see anything about his personality, hopes, dreams, etc.

All they're interested in are his physical appearance.

And don't give me that "he volunteered for the photo shoot" crap. Under the matriarch there is no free will, no consent, no choice. If he hadn't done the photo shoot then it would have gone to someone else. As would the money and fame and attention. So really, did he have a choice? Obviously not.

33. All I knows is, his acting sucks

He better pray every night for his good looks!

[Major Nikon]

12. That's because your phallocentric mind is incapable of deducing that scopophilia...

only works in one direction. The objector can't be objectified any more than the oppressor can be oppressed.

17. Damn that reads like pure iverglas. n/t

[MicaelS]

20. So if I say it 3 times, does she magically appear? n/t

[Major Nikon]

13. a perfect asshole?

[libodem]

14. Major

Have these boys been all up in your nest over at HOF calling you girls names again? Objectifying you with the male gaze? Why are you here name calling?


Is is cuz they don't give a flying fickeldinnger about being an asshole? No one will alert on you? No word police? No umbrage, outrage, or bitching? Takes out half the fun.

[opiate69]

22. Yeah.. I always get that other Major confused with this one:

[opiate69]

24. "You started it!" "No we didn`t!!"

Yes you did, you invaded Poland!!

[libodem]

26. oops

Error. I'm walking that back.

[Major Nikon]

25. You don't know the half of it

[libodem]

27. I think I missed the intent here

My humble apologies. I thought you were 'one of them'.

[Major Nikon]

29. That's why I have the standard disclaimer in my sig line

[libodem]

30. I do most of my posting these days from a smarter than me phone

I can't see Sig lines. I must click your name and see your profile to see avatars and such.. I looked at du on my laptop un-logged in, the other night and its 1000% better than peeking thru a key hole and trying to see around corners.

I pay so much a month for the full service phone plan that it shorts me for cable tv and internet. I signed the two year thingie. I need a bundle plan in the future. I only even got my first computer


just to access du, 7 years ago. My kids always had one.

Plus I'm a technophobe and still in the 90's with the linking and picture posting.
I'm hoping to bone up a little when I see my oldest son next week.

Hope you forgive my error in addressing you like the opposition. Oops.

I peeked in there too. They ARE excellent house keepers. So clean it squeaks. Perfectly white carpet and walls. No nail holes. No cat hair on the furnishings. Not even a glass in the sink.
Perfectly sterilized of all dissension. Pure.

28. hee hee hee

You know he looks like the prehistoric man they reconstructed from a skull. I can't spell it. Neanderthal.

[MicaelS]

31. Actually I think he looks like a meth head. n/t

[libodem]

32. Poor guy

Probably. Alcoholism and substance addiction are not respectful of anyone's station in life, their status or money. It is one equal opportunity mofo. He was on a brief reality wife swap show. Woah.

34. At my age and condition, I'm happy with being voted "He's Still Alive".
