I feel like I’ve been at work for significantly more than two hours… Ugh.

Javid tells it like it is, in my opinion. Popular culture forgets that they [members of the military] are people doing a job. It doesn’t matter who is president, they should be appreciated more and they should be rewarded. Putting a support our troops sticker on your car means nothing if you don’t look at the whole situation and reflect on how they are being treated by not only popular culture, but by politicians as well.

Holy hell if I’m not the second search result on Google for “weird nerd screaming at computer because he’s crap at counter-strike” (minus the quotes when searching). Odd, just odd. And who the hell would search for that anyway?! (There are a hell of a lot of Rose people lurking around here, by the way, some of whom I don’t even know.

But the analogy used there is interesting nonetheless. Someone doesn’t like the South. The Hyena makes my day, particularly when he writes about politics and annoying people. Elf has fired up a discussion about Theo van Gogh’s murder and the state of Islam vs. … well, non-Islam affairs that has me tuned in.…
