Redefining misanthropy for a fresh generation. Standard posts begin with a definition from Ambrose Bierce's The Devil's Dictionary followed by a modern adjustment. Miscellany on Wednesday and storytelling on Saturday.

Bear, if we didn't have mute buttons we'd need a lot more explosives.
Nicole, that's exactly the right description. My first relief yesterday was to see that Rick Sanchez is gone from the morning show. He weighted things heavily in favor of creepy. By the way, if you get Al Jazeera English there, I think that's my favorite.
Nessa, blech.
Karen, aprendes castellano?
Not at all, Cooper. That was answering an invitation. Besides, it was long ago in your case.
Hobbes, those are pretty preventable.
Funny, Sauerkraut. A cause lesser than themselves?
Good luck with that, Quilly.
Karen, vagueness on the other hand, is very refined.
Haha, Ariel. I wondered why there were hot-dogok everywhere.
Thom, I'm glad not to know how she spent yesterday.
The TV is off at all times when I'm alone at home and thank goodness hubby leaves it off now too, unless he really watches it. We should get Al Jazeera, but all news right now is some chanel from Dubai. Not willing to get Satellite. I get my news via the Internet. Good enough and I can check what I want to look at and do NOT have to look at the creepy and sensational b***s*** :/
Your anchor did good today until it cracked. I hope it holds or that you have another.
ReplyDeleteJust like the sea laps the beach! I do suppose it depends a lot on whose tongue it is as to how the mind will take that.
All the lawyer bashing yesterday, my, my. I do smile at lawyer jokes but I don't ROLMAO with any of them.
If I wrote too much I am not the first today to keep Doug happy.

ReplyDeleteto give one either the creeps
or a good laugh in the morning.
They do have a few good programs
and I even miss them sometimes (we don't have Satellite here, but could get them in Hungary)
Incursion: Sort of like a puppy kiss.
ReplyDeleteHola, Doug, Jim, Anon. y Nessa. ¿Cómo están todos esta tarde?
ReplyDeleteNicole, lo siento. Hola! Es agradable ver a ustedes hoy.
ReplyDeleteincursion: The first time commenting on Doug's blog.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing worse would be a Faux News day.
ReplyDeleteincursion: the teabagger knocking at my door, asking for a donation for something smaller.
ReplyDeleteINCURSION, n.
ReplyDeleteI went job hunting today.
I was going to be vulgar by mentioning commenter-masochism. But it seems I've already been trumped at the gaming table.
ReplyDeleteI'll just have to save that card for another day.
Or did I mean sadistic-masochistic- commenters? No matter, either/or ... both are still vulgar.
ReplyDeleteIncursion, how we founded the USA. You are welcome!
ReplyDeleteINCURSION: I bet Coakley is doing that
ReplyDeleteTongue wagging the dog.
ReplyDeleteRIght, Jim. It was a wordy Wednesday for me, too.

Woof.
I. Am. So. Sick. of. CNN. And all other news.

You're wise not to bother with tv news, Nicole. I wasn't kidding that I pretty much only turn it on when I'm not ticked off and need to be.
