Sex Is Not Recession-Proof, And Publicly Fan-Mailing Andrew Sullivan Apparently Not Sex-Proof
by Juli Weiner 2:35 pm March 10, 2009
- One of the many, many middle-aged couples who own socialist sex boutiques in LA—a demographic that’s actually the plurality of Andrew Sullivan’s readers—would like a business/pleasure bailout please. [Daily Dish]
- At this thing called a “Defending the American Dream Summit”, famous bald prostitute Joe the Famous Bald Prostitute criticized Michael Steele, for such is the popular fashion of the times, for trying to make conservatism all about “hip hop,” a black language aphorism which the Politico will translate just in time for AC 360 tonight. [RedState]
- Just hang on in there America, until the 2009′s third quarter, when the economy will fix itself and apologize to everyone it has wronged. [AMERICAblog]
- Obama is going on about something again, what is it this time, oh, schools. Schools. Let’s make the kids do more math, and reading too! There. That should do it. [The Caucus]
- Human simulacrum Richard Gere has called out Madame Secretary Hillary Clinton! For apparently “misspeaking” about the role of human rights in the economic crisis. So, Hillary Clinton has been embarrassed, publicly, by an aging, vaguely sad gray-haired ladykiller. Interesting. [CNN Political Ticker]

First they came for the seks shop boutique owners, but I said nothing since I was not a seks shop boutique owner. Then they came for bald gay Irishmen, and I said nothing since I was not Andrew Sullivan….
The story about the economists saying things are going to get better by 2010 also adds that unemployment will be worse in 2010. Yay?
Yowzah! RedState has turned on Sam the Counter-Evidence To Warhol’s Thesis with alarming and delightful enthusiasm. Keep shooting your wounded, GOP, just keep on shooting.
Why is the Red State site coming up “404 – Not Found?”
The link to the Red State is dead. I’m speaking metaphorically, of course. No, actually, literally as well. Long live J the P!
Goddamn Barry. Making US American kids take maths and reading? What next, make them take the skienzes?
You Barry are destroying my smug Canada City view of US Americans. If you guys learn the maths, get universal healthcare, develop a tolerance for the ghey and decriminalize pot then what will have I left to feel superior about? Hockey? No fucking way cause that’s not enough.
How about we make a deal? You keep the US America ignorant of map reading/geography and I can deal with the rest, okay?
[re=261814]Zorg[/re]: [re=261815]Crankenstank[/re]: Just go to the main site, it’s the top story…the ‘keep reading’ part is, in fact, dead, but there’s enough juicy bits above the fold (ie, a confession that Joe is a ‘monster’ which RedState helped create!) to put a grin on your little Trotskyite face.
[re=261814]Zorg[/re]: Thanks, fixed!
[re=261821]ManchuCandidate[/re]: You can still feel superior, because approximately 23 Americans will be able to name the Canadian PM, while every Canadian born and unborn knows who is President of the US. We will also still all be fat. Are Canadians fat?
[re=261803]Tommy Says Soooo, Jugdish![/re]: FTW! Today we are all Andrew Sullivan.
[re=261847]CorkPopper[/re]:
Canada City types are, but no where near Mid West/Deep South kinda fat.
“Ironically, though in the business of promoting sex and intimacy for the last nine years, our own sexual frequency has hit an all-time low.”
Now I feel better.
[re=261821]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Don’t worry– Congress will find a way to fuck it all up.
In a high school where I worked (and I suspect in other high schools, as well) kids in English classes who “have problems with reading” are allowed to listen to audio versions of the assigned books. These aren’t kids with diagnosed learning disabilities. Either the kids didn’t feel like reading or they had made it to senior year without knowing how to read. Either way: absurdo.
Kids should learn math. Hah, we even learned math in Gigolo School to count our orgasms. Even if it *is* “one…and a little”.
In re: vanishing sex shops – what happens if there’s no place to buy dildos? I suspect grocery stores will mysteriously run out of bananas. And zucchini.
Yes, JTP should be chased out of town with pitchforks as Redstate says. I will praise the day Youtube was invented when this happens.
If I owned and worked in a sex shop, everyday would be a vacation! Talk about a stimulus package!
Wow, this GOP circular firing squad is just getting started. Have you read the comment board on the Joe the Plumber blog entry? Cue the schadenfreude.
[re=261908]TGY[/re]: Oh, you don’t want zucchini — some have little hairs on the outside that you do not want to be picking out of the inside of your privates. And bananas aren’t firm enough. No, what you want is a good solid cucumber.
Get with it sex shop owners of America! In the Middle Ages serfs worked 18 hours a day, six and a half days a week, just so they could hear the Sunday morning sermon telling them that in their spare time they needed to have more babies! And you can’t suck it up (so to speak) for your country and have a little after work quickie??? My God, don’t you have enough stimulation around? Hell, I work 12 hour days and have no problem getting a little……..but I digress. The righties are right! America is going soft. “Idiocracy” was apparently a true story.

[re=261821]ManchuCandidate[/re]: My kid’s Pee Wee team kicked the crap out of a Thunder Bay team.
So you don’t have hockey, neither.
Miracle On Ice, Herb Brooks !!!11!1111!!
I thought we were all too embarrassed to visit sex shops and bought our jeebus butt plugs online like regular US Americans.
Mrs. Thumb and her four daughters, or Mr. Thumb and the four boys…
These are your near neighbors, and very effective.
Why buy what you already have?
I
really don’t understand kids today.
