All the news that's unfit to print

or something like that.
Everyone's been talking about "Paris Hilton this, Paris Hilton that..." but there's more to the news than the incredible sense of schadenfreude that came from watching that whiny, sniveling brat be carried off to the hoosegow. But, damn - if that wasn't one of the more interesting trainwrecks!
Oh no ... my attention turns to this: Your vajayjay is NOT a clown car. Yep, guess who's expecting rugrat #15054503 ... ermmm, #17? Yes - it's the Duggar family. You'd think that after #6, they'd figure out what caused it. But, apparently not. 17 frackin' children. What the hell?!?
Some of the more memorable quotes from this Fox News (*shudders violently*) are from theNeverending Baby Machine mom herself:
"I've never been a mom of a 19-year-old young man and a 17-year-old young man and woman, so every phase of parenting is an exciting adventure" Duggar said.
Really now? Never woulda thunk it, lady.
Because the couple sees each child as a blessing from God, Michelle Duggar said they will, as long as she is able, accept each child they are given.
"Really, our heart is we would love to receive whatever gifts or blessings the Lord wants to give us," she said. "But I love the baby stage and I can't imagine life without having a toddler in the house."
You can't imagine life without a toddler in the house? How about waiting for the grandkids?
I read about this one in TIME Magazine:
According to the conservative blog Illinois Review - Shrek 3 is Promoting a Homosexual Agenda
Ah yes, here we go again. The über-right wing seeing sex in every damn thing known to man. Lock up The ChildrenTM immediately! Yes, of course Doris, the ugly stepsister is a total tranny. Right now, I'm just disappointed in myself for not even noticing it! I guess I just saw the big, butchy woman with a deep voice and thought - "that's kinda funny, and you know, Larry King did a good job as Doris." Never, ever did I think "oh my G*d - The ChildrenTM will see this, and be scarred for life!"
But, I loved that so many of the commentators were saying, "get a grip, lady" to the blogger. As well as pointing out instances of cross-dressing/transvestism in movies. Who among us watched Bugs Bunny outwit Elmer Fudd by dressing as a woman - and wound up scarred for life, or had a yen to dress in drag constantly? (You RHPS fans are excluded) And for those who are old enough - remember Tom Hanks in the TV show Bosom Buddies? He was in drag - and no one around me freaked out. It was just funny to see him in those horrendous dresses and wig.
When did the fucking tables turn? Why do (mainly conservative) people tend to sexualize everything? For serious, none of my friends (straight, queer and otherwise) see sex in things as much as those people! Hell, I'm supposed to be out there foisting my agenda onto people, if you believe them.
Seriously, the only things on my agenda are: 1) Do well by others. 2) Buy Saltines and Pepsi at the grocery store. 3) Make people smile, laugh and think. Dammit, I'm failing here! No vacation or steak knives for me!
So, that's the news that's unfit to print - but still printed. :-)

Date: 2007-06-10 01:09 am (UTC)It is not natural to have that many kids.
Plus, the kids are not socially adjusted in my opinion. They are typical home schooled weirdos. Sure, they have each other, but outside of their family in "normal life", they are completely weird. The girls all have bad hair like their mother (who is STILL rocking the femullet) and the boys all have wierd side parted politician hair like their dad and they all wear red shirts wherever they go and the girls wear Little House on the Prairie dresses, and, and... argh!!
Sorry. I just don't get it. I'll calm down in a minute. ;)

They're just scary all around.
