Secret Bailout Bill Rider! ‘All Washington Citizens Must Drink Filthy Blood’

Local Wonkette operative “Charlotte” (who is “home sick from work” today, so wish her a speedy recovery/death!) sends us this photo of her sink in Washington. It now only pours monster blood. This is something Jesus predicted would happen, in the Bible, and since Washington is a leading indicator of all “Apocalyptic happenings,” our advice remains the same: BUY CANNED GOODS. (And bottled water; that is so fucking disgusting good god.)

    No wonder Charlotte’s sick.

  2. whore4hope says at 5:20 pm, October 7th, 2008

    I hope the Rapture comes before November 4th.

  3. qwerty42 says at 5:21 pm, October 7th, 2008

    the end of days are upon us. the locusts will be next.

  4. soytrucknutz says at 5:21 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Congress should investigate why Campbell’s Soup is trying to artificially raise the price of its canned tomato soup by pouring so much of it down the drain.

  5. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 5:22 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Ain’t no amount of boiling gonna make that safe to drink.

  6. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 5:23 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Still waiting on the plague of locusts to come flying in from Alexandria, or mutant frogs to start perambulating out of the Potomac.

  7. Iggy Plop says at 5:23 pm, October 7th, 2008

    o.k. after the glowing red truck nutz, this is only like sign number six hundred sixty-six that we’re at the end of the world. your cue, Sarah Palin.

  8. The Jackson Five says at 5:23 pm, October 7th, 2008

    We should all be so lucky to have soup run from our faucet…I gotta make my hobo stew with my neighbor’s hedges so I’m actually pretty jealous about now.

  9. UnindictedCo-conspirator says at 5:24 pm, October 7th, 2008

    What’s the problem? It’s a delicious tomato soup fountain! A blessing from Jesus if ever I saw one.

  10. seriesoftubescleaner says at 5:24 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Damn, I could’ve had a V8.

  11. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 5:24 pm, October 7th, 2008

    How’d you get V8 in your tap? Drink it, Charlotte! Full day’s serving of vegetables and so forth…

  12. SayItWithWookies says at 5:25 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Go ahead, drink up — it’s cleaner than the water.

  13. tinybubbles says at 5:25 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Glad I don’t live there anymore. I cannot stand monster blood.

  14. Varchar says at 5:25 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Calm down. That’s just oxidation in the pipes. Although, I do remember Avery Brooks narrating some Science of the Ten Plagues thing that said that’s what the original Nile Blood was as well. Uh oh.

  15. SayItWithWookies says at 5:26 pm, October 7th, 2008

    The Jackson Five: And it’s a good thing it’s tomato — the minestrone clogs the pipes like mad.

  16. Why buy canned soup when it comes out of the pipes for free?

  17. jagorev says at 5:27 pm, October 7th, 2008

    queeraselvis v 2.0: No mutant frogs in DC right now? Oh that’s right, Barney Frank is on vacation.

  18. Apuckerlips now!

  19. freakishlystrong says at 5:29 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Man, sorry girl, you must be havin’ a heavy cycle!

  20. NoWireHangers says at 5:29 pm, October 7th, 2008

    That’s either V8 or the work of Vigo Carpathian.

  21. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 5:30 pm, October 7th, 2008

    OMG I AM SO UNORIGINAL EVERYONE BEAT ME WITH TOMATO SOUP/V8 COMMENTS!!!!

    Clearly a sign of the apocalypse… or perhaps Joe Lieberman is celebrating Passover early this year in his home - in the Washington sewers!

  22. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 5:30 pm, October 7th, 2008

    queeraselvis v 2.0: jagorev: Oh it’ll be much worse than locusts or mutant frogs. It’ll probably be a McCain/Palin rally.

  23. Gopherit v2.0 says at 5:31 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Waiting for the killing of the First Born. Someone should warn Track Palin before he catches a bullet.

  24. jagorev says at 5:31 pm, October 7th, 2008

    The cannibalism we will all be eventually reduced to doesn’t have to be a culinary disaster. Here’s a recipe idea:

  25. Licensed Analrapist says at 5:31 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Charlotte, do you live at Cheney’s house?

  26. greatgooglymoogly says at 5:31 pm, October 7th, 2008

    The Jackson Five: Hedges? You got HEDGES?!? Why, in my neckathawoods, we gotta sift through the bones of cannabalized intruders to find the few weeds still poking out of the lava, which we cook under broken mirrors reflecting the last of the sun’s rays. An’ we LOVE IT! We’d KILL fer hedges, ya spoiled snot-nose bum!

  27. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 5:33 pm, October 7th, 2008

    jagorev: Does that recipe go with a nice chianti?

  28. The Station Manager says at 5:33 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Hey, that is not blood. That’s the sauce that comes with Spaghetti-Os! Orange Gold.

  29. Lucky bitch! She’s stuck home sick and her house dispenses Campbell’s Tomato soup, which non-jewish mothers always fed their kids during the cold days of winter. Now that we are in the cold winter days of economic doom, she is set….

  30. That’s my sink! I called WASA http://www.dcwasa.com/, who told me it was iron that was getting in the water because of local construction and that it was “safe to drink, but I probably wouldn’t want to do that” Needless to say, I’m switching to bottled water…

  31. Paulitik says at 5:40 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Thanks, another reminder that it’s that time of the month for my girlfriend.

  32. shortsshortsshorts says at 5:42 pm, October 7th, 2008

    pinkdc: Since when was D.C. water “safe to drink?” I wouldn’t mow the lawn with that arsenic.

  33. Gopherit v2.0 says at 5:42 pm, October 7th, 2008

    pinkdc: Hahahahaha! You had to call them. Nice of them to care. “Oh, you mean you don’t like your water to look like a bad stool sample?”

  34. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 5:43 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Is she sure she didn’t have the faucet on Clamato?

  35. ManchuCandidate says at 5:44 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Hmmmmm, A One A Day Vitamin in liquid form.

  36. HedonismBot says at 5:45 pm, October 7th, 2008

    NoWireHangers: Killer Ghostbusters reference!
    Palin/Vigo 2012!

  37. HedonismBot says at 5:45 pm, October 7th, 2008

    NoWireHangers: Vigo/Zool 2016?

  38. facehead says at 5:46 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Good thing I found this:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R25Eflr0oJ8&feature=related

    I am facehead and I approve this survival tip.

  39. Jebediah says at 5:46 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Palin is pulling out the middle school class president tricks, but has adjusted from “Coke in the water fountains” to a more canned-good-hoarding-hobo-friendly approach.

  40. pinkdc: Helpful, WASA! Don’t drink the bloodshit water, got it.

  41. sanantonerose says at 5:48 pm, October 7th, 2008

    The Station Manager: Yep. That’s the right color exACTLY. I know because it’s what I’m having for dinner. No meatballs.

  42. Fivetree says at 5:49 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Are dogs running in packs yet? Has the Whore of Babylon established dominion? I didn’t think so. I think it’s REALLY REALLY rusty pipes. Either that or it’s the blood of virgin. Oh scratch that, it’d be too damned difficult to come up with that many in the D.C. area.

  43. shortsshortsshorts: true true… Not even Britta can save me now

  44. NoWireHangers says at 5:50 pm, October 7th, 2008

    HedonismBot: I always figured Palin was the Gatekeeper and WALNUTS! was the Keymaster…

  45. Kev-O-Tron says at 5:52 pm, October 7th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: “I wouldn’t mow the lawn with that…” are you drinking at work again or is this some new San Francisco Values(tm) thing I don’t get?

  46. shortsshortsshorts says at 5:59 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Kev-O-Tron: I’ve been to D.C. enough times to know that it is not exactly the Amazon Rain Forest of city environmental situations.

    And there’s been lots of Sweet Crude in SF water recently, and look what that does in cars! IT REALLY GITS ‘EM GOIN’.

  47. Gopherit v2.0 says at 6:02 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Kev-O-Tron: Duh. You can do that in DC because the water is hard.

  48. btwbfdimho says at 6:02 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Just soak your balls in the sink and you don’t have to buy the glowing Truck Nutz!

  49. Lascauxcaveman says at 6:03 pm, October 7th, 2008

    pinkdc: I’ve seen same effect when I lived in teh big city and they were replacing water mains in the nabe. After awhile, it’ll run clear, but you’ll prolly want to get a Brita anyway if you’re drinking DC water.

    The biggest hassle is if you get enough rust chunks in the sink filters (both at the tap and the lines coming out of the wall) to have to take all that junk apart and clean it.

    Don’t buy more bottled water than you absolutely need, though. And recycle the damn bottles, please.

  50. HuskyMescan says at 6:03 pm, October 7th, 2008

    (sigh) I’ve always wanted a faucet that squirts orange slurpee.

  51. FreshCliches says at 6:06 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Charlotte, you’re missing out on a primo opportunity here. Don’t you see the Sacred-Heart-o-Jeebus pattern in that there “blood”?

    $10 a head to see a Holy Vision = Cha-ching!

  52. Lascauxcaveman: based on my photo above, I’d say it’s a little late to be saving the environment

  53. OzoneTom says at 6:20 pm, October 7th, 2008

    It’s got Electrolytes! It’s what plants crave!

  54. Paulitik: Poor bastard……. unless you like that sorta thing.

  55. keepinitrealyo says at 6:30 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Fivetree: The whore of Babylon… you really know how to feed a straight line, dontcha.

  56. Dientes says at 6:30 pm, October 7th, 2008

    OzoneTom: Idiocracy! We are already there.

  57. Bucky Katt says at 6:42 pm, October 7th, 2008

    Charlotte -
    Go to your refrigerator. Open the door. If there is not a demon inside who growls “Zuul,” your water is probably ok.

  58. PioBaroja says at 6:53 pm, October 7th, 2008

    I for one welcome our new demonic overlords. They can’t be any worse than the ones we’re currently under. Gotta go, my girlfriend just turned into a dog…

  59. natoslug says at 6:54 pm, October 7th, 2008

    qwerty42: I hope so — locusts are high in protein and tasty when lightly fried and dipped in chocolate: http://www.faculty.de.gcsu.edu/~cbader/ghprecwithinsects.html

  60. WikipediaBrown says at 7:32 pm, October 7th, 2008

    LMFAO. That’s exactly what the water here in Baltimore looks like!

  61. Blah in Shaw says at 7:32 pm, October 7th, 2008

    It looks like that sink just went from “toss up” to “lean McCain.” Country Thirst!

  62. AnglRdr says at 7:36 pm, October 7th, 2008

    That “water” looks like it’d be tasty mixed with some vodka.

    But, seriously, that’s not mere oxidation. That’s the Red Cross getting rid of spare blood products. A lot of them.

  63. Botswana Meat Commission FC says at 8:06 pm, October 7th, 2008

    I’m in the mood for a grilled cheese sandwich now.

  64. CaptainMorgan says at 8:22 pm, October 7th, 2008

    facehead: Mmmmm…elephant dung juice.

  65. If you are talking about washington state, that happens to our water every time Dino Rossi forces himself to think about ladies while masterbating.

  66. facehead: Dude - I am so not doing my next debate drinking game with you.

  67. capt. tim says at 12:17 pm, October 8th, 2008

    I just read the blood in the sink part of “IT” this morning.

  68. blood in stool says at 4:36 pm, March 24th, 2009

    I wouldn’t drink that…lol
