The pundits are ablaze, this is their finest hour!

No need for insight or clarity – shock will do, vitriol, rage. Befuddlement.

They are the only ones surprised.

The old order, which they pretend to mourn, was moribund – we killed it, those of us who shrugged and wandered off. Those of us who assumed the republic would always abide – that people would always be safe, choose security; that they would come back, like they always have. We who believed that progress – hollow and vapid – would cease to motivate. Truth is we surrendered our republic to the little man with a screwdriver removing the “girls” sign from the bathroom door at the elementary school where our children used to learn about Jefferson and Madison. And to what end? Nobody can articulate that – so please don’t ask. Of Taco Bowls and Presidents | Joel D. Hirst's Blog

Your Say

I pretty much have the same answer to the question "What were you thinking when you married her?" (Contestant #4)

There was no taco bowl on that menu and the commentors of the picture are indicative of the necks that need to be sliced.

In deed, if you remove the "girls" sign from the bathroom your neck needs sliced too.

Under 14lbs of pressure the stuff literally explodes upon instant release, plan accordingly.

They aren't actually ablaze?

Bummer.


As an aside - why do they get to be pundits and not other people? I'm asking because they are so often wrong it would be better to cull out the worst over the year to let room for others.
