Hey, that's my 'hood!

I just found out that my neighborhood of Westwood, near UCLA, is home to the Stupidest Bike Lane in America (all 275 feet of it), according to Slate:



I walk through there many times, and didn't even know we had any bike lanes (or bikers).

Let the gays have their buttsecks

You were told that gay marriage is immoral:





So in 2000 and 2004, you voted for the party of "family values":





Which elected this guy not once, but twice:





Who then started a useless war, killing thousands of troops
and hundreds of thousands of civilians:






Pissing off the very people we were trying to help,
fueling even more extremism:






Not only that, the cost of the war
grossly exceeded its $50-60B estimate:






Pushing up our budget deficit and partly to blame for
collapsing the value of the US dollar:






Which makes buying oil a lot more expensive:





Thus higher energy costs also means
higher prices for everything else:







Q: So in the end, what are some lessons to be learned?

A: Don't let the fear of the gays having their buttsecks
cause you to bend over for your government and take it up your own ass.




Think about that when the anti-gay
hysteria starts up again in 2008.
