Enjoy getting killed tonight, America, by blood zombies and Sarah Palin on the streets of your neighborhoods. And then come right here tomorrow for a second installment of Weekend Wonkette, where we randomly post more stuff about nothing on our days off because there is an election coming up. Sara will be posting tomorrow, and all three of your editors will be posting on Sunday. Until then, enjoy this retarded video that Wonkette roommate operative “Rob” forced us to watch last night.

Lord Foppington of Dandyshire October 31, 2008 at 6:11 pm

Tim Curry must’ve really been behind in his rent, or been snorting one too many pixie-stix. Either way, a cracktastic beginning to my FIVE AND A HALF DAY Halloween-Election day binge.

Oh, my, I loves me some Tim Curry! Not all his musical excursions were this cheesy, though. I have one album from the late ’70s that’s pretty good.

Pop Socket October 31, 2008 at 9:33 pm

I saw Spamalot in previews and Tim Curry was the only diva that didn’t come out and sign autographs at the stage door.

Just sayin’.

My point is that the election stealing is fully underway. I hate conspiracy theories, but the same companies are in charge and this stupid poll is a plant to make the election stealing seem like it was coming. Also, have you noticed how much Bible spice says “when people go in the booths, they will realize”. I hate them so much. Hopey do something damn it!

JamesMichaelCurley November 1, 2008 at 4:57 am

[re=158648]Pop Socket[/re]: Back in many days past, Rocky Horror Picture Show was on the Roxy Theater stage in Hollywood as its very early live “Cabaret” style production as The Rocky Horror Show. I and several friends from work went many times. After the show we would go to Clementine’s in Beverly Hills to do a little drinking. Tim Curry and other cast members (Meat Loaf for one) were often there and drank with the crowd until morning. We were there because Tim Curry would mention Clementine’s in the show. So I guess thirty some years later the crowd adulation gets a little wearisome. Also, when I saw Spamalot, several people were there because of the Rocky movie and a few had almost no clue about Monty Python. If it is ever available on DVD find the first stage production of Amadeus, for a stunning Tim Curry performance as an immature, ego centric Mozart (fe out shines the Tim Hulce version).

[re=158764]AlexTrebeksGirl[/re]: Buck up ATG! I’m neuroasthenic too, but I made some calls. Resist complacency.

Look. The Hopemaster was not only a community organizer, but one who cut his teeth in the bowels of CHI (a horrible image, but I’m going with it), and though it probably doesn’t get as much attention as South Central or the Bronx, it’s probably the toughest scene in the country. He’s likely seen every flimflam scam in the book. If Dielbold and the Rovians take this down, the entire ‘merican project looks suspect…again. But, at this point since Team Change is cool I am going to decide to be cool.

Gore spaced out. Kerry never checked in. Hopemaster has had eye of the tiger throughout. He bested the two best political minds of the last 30 years: the Clintons. To me that says he knows about dirty tricks and has his own stealth counterattacks. He started with the “right” ground plan, and by that I mean not only right effectively, but the morally right plan. We all know it.

I will now stick more pins in my bitterz effigy doll.
