“So you’re over there…” - Jon Stewart
“I’m over there… in hell.” - Bill O’Reilly
“In hell. I’ll say the organization: Sauron. The Eye of Sauron.” http://on.cc.com/ZgJdeM
Watched this episode as I was getting ready this morning… I love Jon’s Bill O’Reilly smack downs. I was giggling the entire episode.

“In a blow against the Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling, the second-largest city in the U.S. sent a strong, if symbolic, message against corporate personhood and unlimited corporate spending on political campaigns.
“Los Angeles voters overwhelmingly passed Proposition C, a resolution that instructed local and state officials to promote the overturning of Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. With 100 percent of precincts reporting by 3:16 a.m. Wednesday, Prop C had won 76.6 percent of the vote, according to the LA City Clerk’s unofficial results.”

Reblog this if it applies to you.
I am an introvert. That means that when I’m feeling down, chances are that I won’t actually go to you for help. In fact, I won’t go to anyone for help. You’ll have to actually check on me. I don’t feel that I should burden others with my problems but if you come to me, I might just trust you enough to let you help.

Stressful Situations You Cannot Talk About Suck
Every time I drive to a specific client’s office, I’m in nervous knots. My level of anxiety increases a thousand fold. There’s a dread in my stomach that I can barely overcome.
…And I can’t share it with you wonderful people, because the situation could become litigious and if that happens, I will most certainly have to testify about events that happened in my past with this individual, as well as the events of the past week.
…And add to all of that, I have been cleaning out his office for the past three times I’ve been to this office, I’m still not done (there is an end in sight), but I’m just… getting overwhelmed by the disorganization of it all… Like, I’m at my limit of finding things that were from 2005 and not discarded yet. Absolute chaos doesn’t even begin to describe it. A whole box of labels that’s empty and you couldn’t be bothered to trash it? Okay…
See? I need to vent. I really, really need to vent… and if I could just explain what unbelievable demands have come out of his mouth… you would be as flabbergasted as I am and continue to be.
But, by God, when the next paycheck comes, I am ordering at least two pairs of Converse Dainty Ballerinas (one in gray and one in white and possibly a third in black, because I totes forgot they came in that colour until I went looking for the link to link them) and getting a haircut, because I have earned and deserve those two treats.

A stunning tribute to the immortal words of GIF inventor Steve Wilhite who got a standing ovation with his controversial 5-Word Speech at last night’s show.
Thanks, Mr. GIF!
OK, Wilhite. Since you’re gonna be a dick about it I will henceforth refer to them as “graphic interchange format deelies.”
And BTW, graphic interchange format. Graphic starts with a “guh.” So, you know Guh-if.
You propose that we pronounce it Jah-if? As if was a GIRAFFE interchange format. I will not.
Maybe jpeg should sue gif for infringement on its consonant.
^ All of this in bold…. because accurate.
