Wednesday night, I'm surfing my premium movie channels and happen upon the leftist 20 percenter circle jerk show hosted by Bill Maher. Maher, BTW, I used to find funny back in the 90's, before he (like so many leftist 20 percenters) went completely apeshit and off the deep-end in the wake of the 2000 election result and September 11, 2001.I can't watch Maher anymore. He's so full of hate and far-left venom. Anyway, he was ranting about far right-winger Texas governor Rick Perry (who may still run for president in 2012). I pretty much equally disdain Perry. To me, he epitomizes everything that is mindless, brainwashed far right-wing America (not that the far left is any less brainwashed by their ilk, colleagues and upbringing).
Perry over the past year has absolutely outraged me with talk of Texas possibly seceding from the Union as if this was 1860, not to mention his support for legislation permitting the carrying of concealed handguns in college classrooms. That's some pretty deranged right-winger stuff, truth be told.
Lately I have felt SO battle-fatigued by the two extremes that control our two bullshit political parties, and tonight I just kind of snapped (as anyone called the Rager would tend to be prone to do!). So I'm watching this leftist freak Maher ranting and raving about Perry, with a huge Perry still-store (onscreen picture) immediately to Maher's right on the screen.
So I snap. In a truly Elvis Presley-like moment, I don't pull out a gun (actually I don't own one), but I raise my right and left fists and, at the exact same time, lay a southwest Missouri lefthand right on Maher's mush and a southwest Missouri righthand directly on Perry's melon. Mind you, this is one of those old-school, pre-flatscreen TV jobs -- 32 inch with a ton of bulk back in that ass.
My simultaneous punches to the two extremist assclowns not only rocked the TV, but moved it back several inches and nearly sent it off its TV stand. If I had knocked that TV to the floor (which nearly happened), there would've been hell to pay from certain powers that be, I can tell you that. Thank GOD, it stayed on that TV stand by a damn wing & a prayer!
So am I just as sick, angry, hateful and demented as the likes of Maher and Perry? Quite possibly. Welcome to my world. And it's a lonely one: I've never met an Independent with the kind of anger and disdain that I bring to our rotten political culture and system as well as the two corrupt, disgraceful parties that prop it up. Maybe I am sick. But that felt good tonight. Damn good.

Postscript: I typically put up the next day's blog post (if I get it written early) after 11 eastern the night before. And I have one ready to go for Thursday. But I like the Maher/Perry last minute Wednesday post so much, I'm going to wait until Thursday morning to post the Thursday post.
ReplyDeleteOr, I may still put up Thursday tonight. I'm debating...
ReplyDeleteYou're not sick =) I'm glad the TV stayed on the stand AND you got some healthy release too...win-win =)
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm at least a little twisted. Only someone a bit bananas could do a blog precisely like I do this one. There's a reason why I always hit my Wendy's chili with a healthy dose of crackers. It could be said that I came out a bit underdone back in the day.
ReplyDeleteWell, sure, yeah....everyone's a little twisted, even HAH! A little twisted is good =)
ReplyDeleteI'm always tend to be the most sick early in the morning and later on at night. I'm like a Hobo Werewolf.
ReplyDeleteYou just gave me new password possibilities, thank you very much! Hobo werewolf....you crack me up =)
ReplyDeleteTramp Zombie. Bum Vampire.
ReplyDeleteI think we have Tourettes! =)
ReplyDeleteDon't people with that condition always throw out curse words out of the blue? Or was that just a bad episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm?
ReplyDeleteYes, some do swear uncontrollably, but I don't think it's universal..."bitch, whore, slut!" =) I'm sure I saw a story line on LA Law back in the day and Curb too....uncontrollable swearing is always funny. Always! They've probably done it on South Park too =) Yep....they have - posted all three below for your viewing pleasure =)

Curb's new season starts in a few weeks. Michael J. Fox will one of the guest stars. I can only imagine.
ReplyDeleteOh, that should be interesting! So many ways that Larry can make an ass out of himself, I can't wait to see it =)
ReplyDeleteHe's poked fun at tourette syndrome, stuttering, the handicapped and now apparently Parkinson's disease. I bet next season he'll have that crazy little midget from Game of Thrones on the show and will promptly get his ass kicked.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope so, that would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'll still have to watch those video clips.
ReplyDeleteGuaranteed laughs =)
ReplyDeleteI watched those three. I was right! Proof positive right there. Tourettes makes the person curse uncontrollably at any moment. I recall the Royals had a player once called Jim Eisenreich who had it. I wonder if he ever inadvertently called an ump a cocksucker or other curse word. And then if he had gotten tossed from the game, he could have possibly sued the ump and MLB.
ReplyDeleteThat actually raises a good plot line for a Curb episode: They think some dude is faking Tourettes in order to be able to call people derogatory curse words on purpose, but they can't conclusively prove it. If I see that storyline in an episode in an upcoming season, BTW, the only lawsuit is going to be mine against Larry David.
My money's on you, Rager =)
ReplyDeleteI bet David would appreciate the idea but would never do a second Tourettes episode. He has a pattern of doing one episode on a disease, condition or handicap and then never returning to it again. I guess he figures there's no need since there are so many diseases, conditions and handicaps out there.
