The Top 10 Comments of the Week / Brian Prisco

Eloquent Eloquence | October 9, 2008 | Comments (96)


All right. So let’s get this straight. If we make fun of devoutly religious people by using terms like “christards,” we’re bastards. If we make fun of people who make fun of devoutly religious people by using terms like “comedy documentary,” we’re bastards. If we don’t make fun of devoutly religious people, we’re bastards. If we have an opinion at all, we’re bastards. We’ll fight each other even when we agree. And nobody can figure out how Sarah Palin is going to win this election?

I went to film school in Boston in 2003. I promptly got swept up in the religion of The Red Sox. The next year, the curse is broken. Even the fucking Patriots beat my beloved Eagles, and I have to sit in the town where they throw a fucking parade for it. So I move to California. I go to a Mighty Ducks game. The Ducks win the Stanley Cup that year. Against all wisdom, I stay in California. Now this year, the Phillies are playing the Dodgers, and the Red Sox stomped on the Angels to soon obliterate the lame-ass Devil Rays. I have discovered that I am Baseball Jesus. Hail me.

Thanks to Popeye Oyl and her debate team partner, the comments this week are Palin heavy and Palin hatey. Frankly, I’m not voting this election. I haven’t voted in a single presidential election since Clinton the first time. My beliefs aren’t represented, so my vote doesn’t count. I’d vote for none of the above if I could. Oh, no! Am I letting the other side win? What other side? I quit the Democrats when I stopped going to Catholic Church. I’m an apathetic agnostic asshole. We even have our own motor club. Hail baseball.

The Cannonball Read is getting awesome. We’ve got nine people participating. Nine! Why that’s enough to start a baseball team! Synchronicity is the tits. While the competition for the trophy (a pink machete) is strictly between me and Cool Hand Leuk aka AlabamaPink, there may or may not be handcrafted participation badges awarded to all participants and secondary trophies. Once again, for you interested parties, all it takes is a library card and a blog. You can start up a fresh blog! They’re cheap as free! Please write to me at priscogospel at hotmail dot com to join up!

You know what’s great about reading? You can totally do it during a baseball game! It’s the fourth greatest sport to read or study to! (Number 3: Tennis. Number 2: Golf. Number 1: NASCAR.) Also, you can read the books that some of fine Pajiban staff are recommending that you fuckers aren’t paying enough love to. Sarina’s spending her time beating through the Stephanie Meyer books (which is only second to my quest to finish all of the Left Behind Series — mission accomplished), which results in hilarious hate-spewing bile. But nothing compares to the beauty of Jennifer McKeown’s posts. Seriously, I hate dogs so much, I wanted to kick a chihuahua around his owner’s body like a fucking tetherball, and I want to read that fucking Egdar Sawtelle book.

Bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, to the plate is Number TEN!

10. As a woman, I don’t think about my breasts and ass at all. I leave that to the boys. — Sofia

(Actually, Sofia, it appears that only the Pajiban ladies think about their bodies. And then obsess over them. And then lament or laud them in the comments section. The Pajiban fellas then trip over their dicks to flatter them. And then there’s some giggling and some awkward fondling, and I think repeated viewings of shirtless Pajiban poster boys. And that’s how babies are made. Nerdy, amazing babies. Speaking of which, Kolby, have you had your fucking child yet? You’ve been pregnant for like twelve months! I hope you’re charging that little shit rent.)

9. Anybody else a little suspicious that the Stoker family waited all this time to find enough original material from Bram to base a new book on? I have a horrible feeling they have a couple of scribbled lines and the rest will be the product of the grand-nephew twice removed’s imagination. It might be okay but then again if we’re basing our hopes on talent being transmitted through the genes, I have two words for you: Sofia. Coppola. — PaddyDog

8. I lost my virginity while watching this movie (Bram Stoker’s Dracula). I’m weird. Well, not so much lost it…I know where it went. Weird term, really, upon consideration. — kalafraja

(The story of how I lost my virginity will take up a screenplay. Seriously, there were attempted suicides, and ambulance chases, and mafia allegations and court cases, and I think I killed a guy with a trident!)

7. Can someone who understands Morse Code see if Gov. Palin was trying to send a subliminal signal last night with all that winking? Either that, or she was having a stroke. I’m open to both theories. — Tammy

(Actually, it was morse code. My uncle was in the navy and translated it as “Watch Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! on Adult Swim.” Which is weird, because I totally would have pegged her as a Superjail! fan.)

6. My BOYFRIEND is itching to see this movie… Because he can take his chihuahua… Rest assured, his chihuahua will wear a sweater since it is below 85 degrees in a theater. Doesn’t that fact really recalculate the barometer on what seems to be a justified complaint? Of course your daughter wants to see this movie. Next time she sleeps over her friend’s house, be sure to bring up the movie before closing the neighbor’s door. Then do a victory dance. I, on the other hand, will be seeing this on a date. — chihuahua_BF

Chihuaha_BF…RUN!!! Run now. Run fast and don’t look back!!!
Who is your boyfriend, Paris Hilton? You can do better. You MUST do better! — cuca

5. I SAID ABORT! ABORT! ABORT! ABORT! Posted by: Bristol Palin (Too soon?) — branded

4. Instead of completely outlawing it, PETA should push for a winner goes home clause. If you’re the baddest bull muthafucka out there, you deserve a nice pasture and some fly cow honeys. Let him breed more awesome bulls, it’ll be good for the sport until one of his kids doesn’t want to be a matador-fighter and wants to go to a liberal arts college. That would be my movie.— Optimus Rhyme

(Now THAT’s a tasty burger.)

3. Whoa, what a fucking shock — the fucking Pajiba-ites don’t fucking like her, and they don’t fucking think she’s smart. How fucking original. — chris

Hey, chris, it’s a free fucking country. — Genny (also Rusty)

No, it’s not that we don’t like her - we just don’t want her to be President. I’d go over to her pad, have a few drinks, maybe have some thing to eat, but no - I don’t want her to be president. She’s a novelty at this point. I could have answered the questions just as well as her. Granted, there wouldn’t be a slew of lonely Republicans rubbing one out to my grizzled appearance, but I could’ve done the same thing. And you don’t want me to be President, do you chris? — Skittimus Maximus

(Why are our all our trolls named Ben, and Joe, and Chris? BarbadoSlim at least brings his hatespeech to new levels of excellence, and frankly, I’ve been admiring the silent lucidity of Pookie as of late. Even when they want me off the site. Ah, BSlim, you’re like that cranky old man sitting on the porch, yelling at me to get off his lawn. By the time you actually struggled off your crotchety old pee-stained ass to do something about it, I’m halfway through Jersey. Actually, I’ll still be on your stoop, throwing crumpled PBR tallboys at your head and doing bad breakdancing movies with Shia LaBeouf.)

2. (Re: The Ab Fab remake on FOX) This will be about as successful as the current US attempt to remake the British empire. — celery

(Tapping the microphone. Ladies and gentlemen. I give you your number one commenter of the week, and then future Prime Minister of Canada, Admin11:)

1. I don’t know who did the Palin facebook page but they better get Gretzky off of it right fucking now. We will not have our one and only sports hero associated with this delusional, uninformed meat puppet for the Republican Party. I have informed the Prime Minister and he is equally appalled. I have been advised that Canada’s military is mobilizing and that the creator of this farce has until midnite CST to remove Mr. Gretzky’s image from the page, else the United States of America will be invaded on the pretense of bringing democracy to an obvious dictatorship.

Be advised that Canada’s full millitary might will be brought against America. We shall launch all 23 canoes in our arsenal complimented with marines outfitted with the latest in musket technology to secure your coastlines. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police will attack across our mutual boarder by horse-back and you don’t want to mess with them. Those horses bite!
Finally to ensure your liberation Canada will be sending an contingent of 62.75 Eskimo commandos mounted atop polar bears to deal with any facist uprisings. These fuckers are mean. They carry whale bone harpoons that can be thrown over 12 metres. You probably don’t think that 12 metres is a long distance but, then again, you don’t even know what a metre is so fuck you.

You may be wondering who the .75 of an Eskimo is. That is Nanook, terror of the north. He lost his leg during a vicious Eskimo leg wrestling match. He is the most brutal of the bunch. During the baby seal harvest he doesn’t use a club, he uses his cock.

We assure you we are serious about your liberation and we look forward to your aid in achieving our mutual goal of democracy for all people on Mr. Gretzky’s behalf. — Admin11

—-

Wowsa. I just joined Facebook. Pajiba has just over 500 members. I’m surprised that that’s it. I feel like I’m in the limo with a fat wedding party. There feels like there should be more of us than is showing.

Anyway, my hearty Canuck, for your stirring declaration, I hereby begift you with your very own Pajiba shirt. Please send us many beaver pelts, a liter of maple syrup (goddamn you metric system), an air mail envelope, and your mailing address in the frosty north. (In French, English, Spanish, and Pig Latin). Our overlord can be reached at dustin at pajiba dot com.

I’ve got my new candidate for president. And this is totally not an attempt to get all the Pajibans in Minnesota to go to Valleyfair Amusement Park in Shakopee, MN. She’s part of the Freakshow Deluxe, and her name is Amy Amnesia. She might be laying on a bed of nails and get bricks broken on her, she might be hammering nails up her nose, she might be pulling an Annie Lennox and walking on broken glass. She might even let you staple dollar bills to her body. So go!

And on November 4th, vote for a real American. He even comes with his already attached running mate!

MAXIMUS/MINIMUS ‘08
He’d Vote For You

GO PHILLIES!

'Cool Hand Leuk" made me cheer a little inside, then wonder if maybe it was a little tasteless, then say fuck it, she's so badass,

Posted by: Optimus Rhyme at October 9, 2008 1:20 PM

pfffffffft

Guess which finger I'm holding up, Prisco.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at October 9, 2008 1:26 PM

is it thumb? I bet it's your thumb. I'm going to go with ring for my final answer. Because of your firm beliefs in the sanctity of marriage.

Posted by: insertclevernamehere at October 9, 2008 1:31 PM

"I have discovered that I am Baseball Jesus. Hail me."

Prisco, I take back everything I ever said/wrote about you. PLEASE. Move to the north side of Chicago. Put Mr. PaddyDog out of his misery. At this point I just leave home every October because I can't bear the mind-numbing depression he settles into when he finally realizes that once again this is not the Cubs' "year". I will do anything. PLEASE MOVE HERE NOW.

Posted by: PaddyDog at October 9, 2008 1:33 PM

Congrats Admin11. And hey, how about the girl power in the top ten? Looks like we've got magic titty powers.

Posted by: Cindy at October 9, 2008 1:34 PM

I bet it's pinky. Because you always struck me as the genteel type.

Posted by: Wednesday at October 9, 2008 1:36 PM

if you are the baseball jesus please please please move to the north side of Chicago.

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 1:38 PM

A well-earned top spot this week. Thank you admin11 for speaking on behalf of all of us Pajibans in Canada and making a commanding plea to rectify the evil misappropriation of Mr. Gretzky's image. You said it better than Lego-Hair Harper ever could have.

Posted by: b at October 9, 2008 1:42 PM

Congrats Admin11! Like my homey DOC, no one could do it better (I'm overtired).

And Prisco, my dear, I am currently 35 weeks and 4 days pregnant. That means I've got about a month to go before little Skitti-Boo Stanley SirPissyAss makes his appearance. You can take it if I can.

Posted by: Kolby at October 9, 2008 1:42 PM

Magic titty powers don't mean much since they have the dumb stick.

Posted by: amanda47 at October 9, 2008 1:43 PM

Dearest Baseball Jesus,

If the Phillies lose I will hunt you down, bludgeon you with a Phanatic doll, shave your beard, and tattoo Mr. Met on your face.

Posted by: Julie at October 9, 2008 1:43 PM

I thought the "Cool Hand Leuk" title for Alabama Pink was great. More positive thoughts heading your way Pink!

Posted by: BWeaves at October 9, 2008 1:43 PM

I thought the "Cool Hand Leuk" title for Alabama Pink was great. More positive thoughts heading your way Pink!

Posted by: BWeaves at October 9, 2008 1:43 PM

Prisco, you should just go ahead and change your Pajiba handle to Baseball Jesus. All Hail.

Posted by: Jerce at October 9, 2008 1:44 PM

Shit, I didn't even know there was a FB group.

I think I'll spend the rest of the afternoon trying to figure out which commenters are who on the group....

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 1:45 PM

Sofia, mi corazon, you know your Eloquent status only makes me want you more. And with such provocative material, rrowr.

Posted by: Optimus Rhyme at October 9, 2008 1:46 PM

I think I just fell over. I've made about six comments ever, and I'm in the top ten! Looks like virginity talk is the way to Prisco's heart. Noted.

As an aside, dear Mr. Prisco, *please* tell us your virginity-loss story?

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 1:48 PM

I, for one, welcome our new Canadian overlords. Y'all have a proper appreciation for cheese and booze. Plus it means I will no longer be the palest person at the beach.

Posted by: Genny (also Rusty) at October 9, 2008 1:49 PM

A baseball Jesus that's pro-Phillies?


Heheheheh I spit on your religion, and let's crucify him, ASAP.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at October 9, 2008 1:50 PM

As an aside, dear Mr. Prisco, *please* tell us your virginity-loss story?

Has this ever been the topic of a comment diversion? If not, it needs to be. Like, right away. I need to hear PissBoy's - after his prom story his first time shoudl be a good one.

Posted by: Kolby at October 9, 2008 1:50 PM

Magic titty powers don't mean much since they have the dumb stick.

I don't know if we can take that for granted; Dustin seemed to have lost his yesterday.

Posted by: Cindy at October 9, 2008 2:00 PM

"Lego-Hair Harper" - hoo boy, that is the description I've been looking for, b, that is perfect. Also, Genny you will never be the palest person on the beach if I am there. I do not tan in the slightest, so you will be welcome to sit in the shade with me, and enjoy some cheese and beer.

Posted by: sunset&camden at October 9, 2008 2:03 PM

We've had some previous discussions of virginities lost, and they involved lots of post-coital sobbing.

Devo, you want to go halfsies on the #5 finish? You should get some credit, too.

Posted by: branded at October 9, 2008 2:07 PM

@ lizzieborden - I didn't know there was one either, will join tonight when I get home. I hope the hottest of all Pajibans can be found there, and we can engage in illicit poking. Poking seems to have lost it's lustre of late, I vote that we re-engage.

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 2:08 PM

I didn't sob, post-coitus. I also didn't see the end of Dracula, but I suppose that's alright. I think I still have that beast on VHS; perhaps I will break it out, see the end, and reminisce about the gigantic dumb stick that deflowered me.

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 2:10 PM

Magic titty powers don't mean much since they have the dumb stick.

Who needs a stick when you have a pink, vibrating Dildoscar? By the way, it's yours for the week, Admin11. Congrats! (See link)

Optimus, my love, last week you mentioned you wanted to get in the Top 5 (see? Women can't let go of anything) and you made it. I'm proud of you. I'm confident I'll be giving you my dildoscar pretty soon.

Posted by: Sofía at October 9, 2008 2:15 PM

Heh... I read that as pink vibrating Dildo Scar. Which I must say was a little scary.
I'm sure we'll both be seeing that numba one spot soon. You've really been on your game. ((I will not look at your hand in that picture. I will not look at your hand in that picture. Focus on the T&A, Focus on the T&A))

Posted by: Optimus Rhyme at October 9, 2008 2:20 PM

Pajiba on Facebook? I thought that would cause a rip in the time/space continuum. I'm sure my friend request will be denied. And admin11, I'd piss myself if I had to fight a mountie-I've seen Due South.

Posted by: ThunderSacTriumph at October 9, 2008 2:20 PM

kalafraja, I don't think I've ever gotten into the poking on FB. Is it that much fun? I mean, I enjoy poking people in real life... so I guess virtual poking can be fun as well.

Is it possible to FB stalk someone without actually friending them? Probably not. Damn.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 2:23 PM

Well deserved, Admin11! I'm still giggling at the seal-clubbing part.

Prisco, for your excellent judgment, we shall be benevolent to you and your family during the great invasion.

Posted by: meaux at October 9, 2008 2:26 PM

@ lizzieborden - FB poking is stupid and pointless, and most people think it's not, making it even more stupid and pointless.

We could take it to an entirely new level, however.

As for FB stalking, I happen to be an expert. No to being able to stalk people without befriending them, unless they're dumb and leave their profiles open to such fuckery. There are other ways, but I'll implicate myself and look like a loser if I share.

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 2:26 PM

Number 3... so close... can reach out and just barely touch the back of Admin11's neck... so very close... weighed down by the goddam PLAA I wear around my neck...

I'm not sure what this FaceBook thing is all about... Seems to me, when I was young and Minimus was suspected to be but a boil, the guy down the street from us was arrested for having a FaceBook. It was a scrapbook of human faces. Mostly rail-yard bums, vacuum salesmen, and the occasional Jehovah's witness...

Posted by: Skittimus Maximus at October 9, 2008 2:26 PM

I read that as pink vibrating Dildo Scar. Which I must say was a little scary.

Just wait till our wedding night. Or second date.

Posted by: Sofía at October 9, 2008 2:26 PM

Prisco,
As dearest Paddy has already mentioned, if you could relocate to the north side of Chicago, it would be greatly appreciated. Greatly, greatly, greatly, greatly, greatly, greatly appreciated. My father, the hugest of huge Cubs fans, has announced that he's getting out all of his black clothes. Not only to mourn the death of his soul, but in order to switch teams as well. That's right. My father, with the Cubs tattoo, signed Prior, Wood, and Sandberg jerseys and bats, lifelong worshiper and lover of the Cubs, is switching over to the White Sox.
Of course the only way he could root for the Sox is to not have a soul since their fans are primarily drug dealers and prostitutes, but I hope it's just a phase. Dear God I hope it's just a phase...

And on the Pajiba facebook group, it's pretty flipping easy to figure out who I am. And also, I second re-engaging poke wars!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Kash at October 9, 2008 2:28 PM

I'm still pretty new to the FB... so how do you poke people you aren't friends with? Do I need to go friend the entire 'jiba group?

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 2:37 PM

It's spelled LITRE motherfucker! North Side, eh!?!?

Posted by: Ebs at October 9, 2008 2:38 PM

HOLY SHIT, I CRACKED THE TOP TEN!
This is more exciting than Prom, my wedding, and the time I punched a crowd-surfer in the kidney at a Nine Inch Nails concert, combined.

Posted by: Tammy at October 9, 2008 2:41 PM

lizzie I don't think you can poke people if you aren't friends with them. Ew. I never realized that.

lame.

Posted by: Kash at October 9, 2008 2:41 PM

So Baseball Judas has been living in Pittsburgh for 16 years? *sigh* When he shows up at the Last Clubhouse Spread, would you please give him these 30 pieces of silver to move to St. Louis?

Thanks. Watch your nail ... um, MAIL.

Posted by: bucdaddy at October 9, 2008 2:42 PM

Virtual poking is just as irritating as physical, and I'll fight you. Virtual fighting is alot like reality, just instead of flailing my arms and legs violently in a random barrage of hits, I will fling so many apps and bumper stickers at you you'll have no choice but to run screaming from the room. Oh, and those tears are mine. I'm Daniel on Facebook, cause there's already a danny here.

Posted by: ThunderSacTriumph at October 9, 2008 2:44 PM

You used to be able to poke people you weren't friends with...for some reason I think you still can...but I can't log in at work to check.

Used to be that if you pulled up someone's profile, and they weren't your friend, you got their pic with the "add friend", "send message", "view friends" or "poke" options.

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 2:44 PM

kash

we must save your father from becoming a sox fan which is a fate worse than death.

We will start a community fund to move Baseball Jesus to Wrigleyville.

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 2:48 PM

so, is poking someone you don't know as creepy as friending them? discuss.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 2:51 PM

So, I'm totally going as Sarah Palin for Hallowe'en. Since I can't stop talking that that goldern accent, it's a lock.

Question for Pajibans:

Down's Syndrome baby doll accessory too much?
If so, John McCain's face on a doll baby suckling at my teat too much? I awake your verdict.

Posted by: Farfalina at October 9, 2008 2:55 PM

the friending bylaws of facebook are complex, I tend to reject

A- People I dont know
B- People I went to HS with and never talked to who try and be my eFriend
C- Endless invitations to "Pirate vs. Ninja's" "Somebody sent you a flower" app's

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 2:56 PM

If you actually-actually don't know a person, friending them OR poking them is unacceptable, in my view. This shit isn't MySpace. That said, FB has quickly turned into a place for people to add people that they barely know, or knew for five minutes when they were eight years old. That bugs me too. Also, the fact that my mom is on FB disturbs me. I've limited my profile to her, 'cause otherwise that's creepy.

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 2:56 PM

@ dylanj - would you reject someone from HS that you didn't really know, but is now really hot but wants you to be in their ninja gang?

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 2:57 PM

kalafraja

nah, I but I would send them an eFlower with tagline of "sorry I rejected your friendship application but the positons is already filled, btw nice buns/tits/grill/mind"

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 3:00 PM

with a PS of yes the position(s) for friendship are filled but I am looking for somebody to edit my blog comments before I post. Once again- Love what you've done with the body

Sincerely,
D. Jones Esq.

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 3:03 PM

Speaking of Facebook... Eric Hudd, your pic is HOTTTTTTT.

Oh, and Optimus, I'm preeeetty sure I know who you are. Show us your tits!

Posted by: Sofía at October 9, 2008 3:03 PM

What if I sat behind you in the second grade and ever so delicately, cut a lock of your hair with my green-handled lefty scissors? And say I've kept that swatch of your hair in my pocket for twenty eight years? What if I also quit my job and moved two states down after finding your address after a decade of searching? And I moved into your old apartment so I could smell you? Then could I be your friend?

...hmm?

Posted by: Skittimus Maximus at October 9, 2008 3:08 PM

actually that fufills all my friendship tests so yes, yes you could.

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 3:10 PM

I think the loyalty requirement's definately met, if not succeeded, there. Left handed, or just like to steal from minorities?

Posted by: ThunderSacTriumph at October 9, 2008 3:11 PM

"Cool Hand Leuk"

K-fucking-rad.

Consider it appropriate.

Shit. I might just have to slap it on my FB profile since everyone's on the subject.

Posted by: Alabamapink at October 9, 2008 3:12 PM

Consider it **appropriated**.

Sheesh.

Let's all smile condescendingly at the chemo-tard now.

Posted by: Alabamapink at October 9, 2008 3:13 PM

Left-handed. And I can't tell you the number of times right-handed bastards stole my scissors simply because the handles were green. to this day, I carry a pair with me, attached to the hip with a 24-inch chain. WHO'S TAKING THE SCISSORS NOW, HUH?! HUH?!

Posted by: Skittimus Maximus at October 9, 2008 3:13 PM

In my never ending effort to not actually sell any wind turbines I started to scroll through our Pajiban mugs on facebook and found there is another "Dylan"...in Jersey.

(Starts booking flight/packing to destory evil Dylan)

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 3:14 PM

fuck, "destory"????

I just cant have it all, I either need to work and not post or just quit working and wait till 5 and type real words when i write

Posted by: dylanj at October 9, 2008 3:16 PM

I think if my mom was on FB, that would seriously creep me out. Weird.

I avoid trying to add people I went to HS with but never talked to, and pretty much everyone I went to grade school with (I went to Catholic schools, so all my classes were tiny). At least you don't get all those "OMG my band is so awesome, please add us" requests like on Myspace. I have noticed that tons of people seem to add whomever to their lists though. I mean, who actually knows 347 people?!

However, considering I'm secretly on the "crushing on Skit" squad, I would totally accept his friend request, despite all my usual heebie-jeebies about accepting people I dont actually know.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 3:18 PM

I was one of those bastards (not literally, of course), but I got my just desserts. I couldn't figure out how to use them with my right hand, so I tried the left. I've got scars.

Posted by: ThunderSacTriumph at October 9, 2008 3:20 PM

My Dear Pajibans,

I am truly humbled. Please rest assured that if the outcome on November 4th is less than satisfactory you will be voulentarily annexed into the Confederation. Our forces are in place and waiting for my signal. Please do not try to find them they are oufitted with our latest stealth technology. There is simply no way you can see a canoe in the ocean with a tarp draped over it. It just cannot be done.

The Eskimo's have shed their seal fur and are now posing as hipster douchebags in your cities. Good luck figuring out which ones they are.

Some advice. Our weapons are powerful so please, all loyal Pajibans, invest in a suit of acid washed denim. It is the only Item that will protect you from our arsenal. This armour may be found at your local Salvation Army or in some place called New Jersey.

Finally, I wish I could lead this invasion personally however I have been added to the Do Not Fly list. On the fateful day look to the north, I will be the one with arm raised high holding the pink dildoscar in my oh so dainty clenched fist.

Posted by: Admin11 at October 9, 2008 3:33 PM

Kash:

You forgot the red neck Sox fans who think Commiskey Park (I refuse to call it The Cell) is their own backyard for fightin' and cussin' in front of the neighbours.

Posted by: PaddyDog at October 9, 2008 3:50 PM

I lost my virginity while watching this movie (Bram Stoker's Dracula). I'm weird. Well, not so much lost it...I know where it went. Weird term, really, upon consideration.

It's not such a weird term considering how some people, like my "friend" "Schmabrina," lose their virginities. You know, drunk, partly unconscious, knowing only the guy's first name. Because once that guy's got your virginity, you don't know where the fuck he went with it.

I will gladly accept hot Pajibans as FB friends...I think. That's mostly because I'm always curious about what people look like. Does that make me weird?

Good comments this time, except for #1 which was too long-winded and dull.

Naw, that's not weird. I'm always curious as to what people look like as well. And as to what they sound like. But that might be because someone once told me I have a slight East Bawlmer accent I've never been aware of.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 4:20 PM

That's not weird Kalafraja, I love having a visual...for the spank bank.

Oh, and I'm on Facebook and am a member of Pajiba as of today.

Posted by: Julie at October 9, 2008 4:24 PM

And I will be FB stalking I mean friending my new BFF Julie as of getting home from work tonight.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 4:27 PM

Hee! I'll have to turn on my FB security system.

Posted by: Julie at October 9, 2008 4:32 PM

Balls, I see there's a common FB requirement of hotness.

Posted by: ThunderSacTriumph at October 9, 2008 4:37 PM

Down's Syndrome baby doll accessory too much?
If so, John McCain's face on a doll baby suckling at my teat too much?

What you should do is get your shortest female friend to accompany you with a pillow under her shirt as Pregnant Bristol. Bonus points: get a third friend to play Levi while you hold a shotgun on him.

Posted by: Jerce at October 9, 2008 4:53 PM

OK, Julie. I must insist you tell me who you are on FB so I can stalk you. ;) (And in the interest of fairness, I will point out that all anyone has to do to figure out who I be on FB is to click on the name-link, because my blog has a bigass picture of me on it, that I believe currently matches my FB pic.)

Speaking of stalking, has the next great 'jiba descent upon the Khyber been planned yet?

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 5:26 PM

Jerce, excellent suggestion! And maybe get some scary looking cousin to place his hand on your back and pray that you'll be kept safe from witchcraft.

Posted by: Pants at October 9, 2008 5:37 PM

I think you're right about the poking. I don't know. I just know that I'm in the midst of a poke-war of epic proportions and I wouldn't mind another couple of them.

When did we start calling it FB?

Posted by: Kash at October 9, 2008 5:42 PM

Whoa cool! Pajiba on FB...now I only have to check one of them every day. Ha. So who can I stalk?

Congrats, Admin11, that was the cat's tits. Also..."Cool Hand Leuk" is a great handle, Pink ;)

Posted by: Joker at October 9, 2008 6:01 PM

When I got too lazy to type "facebook"?

Joker, I think you'll still need to check both. I know I do.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 9, 2008 6:11 PM

I'm in the Pajiba FB group! Now I feel like I belong!

Posted by: kalafraja at October 9, 2008 6:23 PM

Wasn't there a huge comment section about what everyone looks like? The origin of Tk's sweatervests, actually. I still was a mild lurker then. Didn't get into it.

Posted by: Optimus Rhyme at October 9, 2008 8:02 PM

I'm not bashing on FB.
I actually used to call it thefacebookdotcom, but then it stopped being THEfacebookdotcom and I now refer to it as "TheFace".

I remember a discussion about the mangafaces. But nothing about sweatervests. I was probably still lurking. On theface. In the dark. While it's raining.

Posted by: Kash at October 9, 2008 8:12 PM

Ugh. I effing hate Facebook. I have one, but TK can tell you all about how bleak and empty it is, because I am far too lazy to do anything with it. And I'm not even FB friends with any of my real, actual friends because I see them and talk to them in my real actual life, so wtf do I need to e-friend them for? I guess I just don't get FB. I never understood MySpace, either. I had one of those for like three years because my sister made me do it, and I think I updated it all of two times before I finally deleted it.

I just don't see the fun in these things with their walls or poking or whatever the hell. Why not just get a blog like a normal person? But nooooo, a blog isn't enough for some people, and they demand that you get a FB, and when you finally cave and do it just to shut them up they whine because you don't do anything with it, and when you tell them they can read your blog if they're so het up to know shit about you they just look at you like you're from Jupiter because apparently reading stuff with whole paragraphs is for pussies or something, and there is just no pleasing some jackholes, is there?

I think I have more suppressed Facebook rage than I realised. It's because it involves effort to keep up one of those FB thingers, and effort makes me hurt inside. Like, I might join the Pajiba FB group doodad, but on the other hand I'm exhausted thinking about how many keys I'd have to click to accomplish that, so I just might eat some Goldfish instead.

Yay! I'm a participant. Look at my nifty badge! Woo!

Genuine excitement is hard to convey at Pajiba. I really am. You realize that Cannonball Read is one participant away from 1000 books read in a year, right? Could you imagine if we got all 360+ people in today's comment diversion to sign on? 360,000 books in a year. Even 50 would be super impressive. That would be worth some NYTimes coverage, or at least a mention on Gawker or something.

Dude. AWESOME idea! I have a bunch of friends who've been waiting for years to go as an angry mob, so they're gonna pitchfork up and chase me around while I say doggone it! and say it ain't so, joe! I like group costumes.

Posted by: Farfalina at October 9, 2008 9:33 PM

Sarina, screw Facebook, let's grab Skittimus and get loaded on First Ave.

I VOTE SAXON.

Posted by: Mimi at October 9, 2008 10:33 PM

Robert, I'm happy to report we've got 10 (with a tentative 11th on deck) for our Cannonball Read. If we could somehow get 100 people involved, and we'd be reading 10,000 books, that would be sweet, sweet candy.

I'm even happier to report that Baseball Jesus is 1-0.

Posted by: insertclevernamehere at October 9, 2008 11:02 PM

But Skits lives like an hour and a half away, branded. It would only be polite to meet him somewhere in the middle, rather than make him drive so far just to hang out with our punk asses.

Posted by: Sarina at October 9, 2008 11:07 PM

A FB group based on a website just seems . . . odd.

If you're going for the Bristol Palin costume, a bike helmet tied around the waist with a belt is a much better "belly" than a pillow. Plus you can balance cans of Miller Lite on it.

Posted by: Lauren at October 10, 2008 3:29 AM

I am a proud White Sox fan, and I was going to rant about the anti-White Sox comments. I decided the lousy Cubs fans ain't worth it though! I want Baseball Jesus on the South Side of Chicago. I'm sure the Cub fans would tell you that you may get shot. GO PHILLIES!!!

Posted by: Chiggy at October 10, 2008 1:30 PM

lizzieborden: I cracked your code.

Also, I'm randomly adding folks with real names bearing any semblance to a pajiba-handle. (apologies in advance to all Julies who aren't, you know, the Julie.)

Posted by: feramones at October 10, 2008 3:09 PM

Ha! Feramones, my last name begins with a C. I'm hugging a bride in my picture. :)

Posted by: Julie at October 10, 2008 3:15 PM

Haha, awesome. I have accepted the friending of both feramones and Julie.

Julie... you are falling into my snare. Eeeexcellent *Mr Burns style*.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 10, 2008 3:26 PM

Ah, that was FERAMONES. Sweet. You bitches best watch yourselves, I get handsy when I stalk.

Posted by: Julie at October 10, 2008 3:32 PM

Julie, darlin', you aren't the only one.

Posted by: lizzieborden at October 10, 2008 4:01 PM

Two stalkers - that's a boob and an ass-cheek apiece, ladies.

We share our parts 'round these parts.

Posted by: feramones at October 10, 2008 4:29 PM

Late to the Eloquent's Ball, but what do I care anymore? I've placed and I've passed judgment (and in the process disqualified myself from future consideration -- not that my ravings ever qualified me for anything in the first place), so the EE thrill is essentially gone. Now all I can do is look at this and imagine what it is that Prisco tries to pass off as a life...

More to the point, I'm definitely with Sarina on the facebook hate. I'm even too disinterested to capitalize it. It's the hipster MySpace, without the cultural relevance. Too, there's the obvious generational issue for me; I certainly won't be that parent playing in their kids' sandbox. All of my kids have MySpace and facebook pages and what little I know about it is from looking over their shoulders to make sure they aren't doing anything obviously obnoxious -- the real surveillance is done through the router...mwahahaha.
