Drew Curtis wants everyone to calm down…

About the NSFW Trademark Application, I can say three things:

1) Yes, we applied for it.

2) Can’t comment on the prank angle other than “stay tuned.”

3) Muhahaha.

I’ve gotten a few email complaints about the NSFW trademark ap. It bears mentioning that I received 10x as many complaints about the DealNews ad with the picture of some guy’s ass in it (removed already, whoever over at DealNews thought that was a good idea needs to be punched in the face), and 100x as many complaints when we moved all the boobies links over to Foobies.com (NSFW™). There’s an interesting yet unsurprising cross section of the priorities of an Internet audience for you.

I’m guessing the complaints are from people who don’t read Fark, otherwise they’d know our end goal couldn’t possibly be suing everyone using NSFW out of existence.

Actually, Drew, I never thought you were going to sue anyone out of existence, and I do regularly read Fark, but that doesn’t change the fact that until proven otherwise, your application for a trademark on a phrase you didn’t invent makes you look like an asshole until further notice.

I await being proven wrong.

Hmmmm… Something seems fishy here, and it isn’t the anchovies on the pizza…

Health inspectors closed a Pizza Hut restaurant in east Raleigh after a worker found live mice inside it. The employee who notified the health department about the mice says she was fired for reporting the problem.

[...]

That employee called the Wake County Health Department, and an inspector ordered the Pizza Hut closed. The inspector also pulled the restaurant’s permit so it can’t operate until the rodent problem is corrected.

I don’t know… I tend to find that people who report their bosses to OSHA, the Health Department, and all these other agencies are usually doing so out of spite for something. I don’t know if it’s the case here, but I do find it odd that an employee at a restaurant would endanger their job and the jobs of others without some kind of bone to pick.

Something in my gut tells me that this is one of those cases where the employee was having a rough go of it and decided to get back at the boss; the boss then picked up on it and fired her ass. I really don’t know that to be the case, but I’d be utterly stunned if it wasn’t.

What is it about the piece of shit poet, obsessed boy lover, gay drug using piece of shit Allen Ginsberg that the left loves so much?

I was flipping through Boing Boing and Cory Doctorow goes off on a glowing post to this piece of garbage maintaining the left’s consistent love of this talentless hack.

I just finished listening to the 3-CD Allen Ginsberg Audio Collection — I was mostly interested in the classics like Howl and Kaddish, Pull My Daisy and Don’t Grow Old, but the poem that totaly took me away was “Put Down Your Cigarette Rag,” a poetic song that can make me laugh, dance, and sing along even after about 20 listens. It’s also totally stuck in my head and I find myself singing it under my breath as I walk down the street.

There’s a link to the “lyrics” in the post and a link to this piece of garbage performing the video.

My question is a simple one: Why does anyone think this guy has any talent? Something tells me if he was a right wing pro-war type and didn’t lust after young boys, the left would want nothing to do with him, but by and large, he’s an icon.

I don’t get it.

That’s one cute little mutant kitteh…

Her human family noticed there was something different with the three-month-old kitten when she started scratching more than other cats.

“You would sort of want to wear boxing gloves when you play with her,” says Kaelene Gerrard, who lives with her partner Eli Eliu and daughters Mercy, six, and 12-year-old Shardae.

She examined the frisky feline’s paws and did a double take at what she found.

“We counted and then recounted but we had it right the first time,” she says.

Extra has seven toes on each front paw and six toes on each back paw - instead of the normal five on each.

“Her mum Star is a normal cat but her grandmother had six toes on each paw as well and so does her brother. But we’ve never even heard of a kitten with seven toes on each front paw,” says Kaelene.

“Extra’s a good climber and runs really fast.

Wow!

Let’s see if this works… The Bloglines folks say if I use a YouTube video’s link, it’ll show.

Try as I might, I couldn’t find a mention of South Park on Wizbang, though, despite their anger over Bill Maher.

Does politics dictate anger?

Via Little Green Footballs:

Hmmm… Hitler on one side, chimps on the other…

Both slang names the left uses for the President…

Total coincidence in placement…
