The grassroots movement has apparently been trampled underfoot.
Stop fucking with my mind. I click on the link, BOTH LINKS, and I end up where I started. WHERE DID THE UNIVERSE GO??!!?!!
Are we alone?
Its just like RADAR.
Fuckin… you had my hopes SO high. Damn damn damn!
I’m now sobbing with disappointment as I smoke filtered menthol cigarettes and watch basic cable.
I hope you’re happy, Jim Newell.
Once my heart began beating again, I clicked and LOL’ed. Well done!
THIS IS MY THESIS!!!1!
Dead link or lesbian porn would have been fine with me.
Goddamnit I was really fucking excited, to see some shitty sites with crazy whack-job opinions existing only to piss people off.
OHHEYITWORKED!
Someone’s been diddling godaddy.com…
Does this mean Danica Patrick for Secretary of the Interior?
“Change we Can Believe in” does not have to remain a customary political connotation, at least. Whatever, VOTE FOR HORSLEY.
Just FOR THE HISTORICAL RECORD we did not purchase those domains, so I mostly wanted to know which one of you perverts did this, and whether we get a cut of sale proceeds when those two clowns actually DO make up the ticket in 2012 and destroy america forever.
obfuscator: *obviously* I am not happy.
This is so meta.
When is a grassroots movement not a foot?
This is like, so weird man. I’m going to hit the pipe again and click a couple more times.
Seriously though, look at the whois record? And then google for the administrative contact phone number? HENNGHH???
Jim Newell: the pwner becomes the pwnee. isn’t that a ninjun tribe? u should look into that and get some casino $$$.
What I just replied to Newell & Sara:
This is clearly some very high-concept shit designed to separate the Ivy Leaguers from the rest of us. And I, as a graduate of a Public Ivy (TM), am especially insulted by this.
Oh, and umm, yeah, Go Heels or whatever . . .
Jim Newell: Any proceeds from said WebVenture will be paid in Chinese Reserve Dollars and wire transfers from Cash4Gold.com, also.
Ken Layne: but what if McCain had won?
Jklol.
What is going on?
I click on the links but I end up back here…..what a scam.
Wait a minute……why does my address bar show http://www.palinbachmann.com/ and the other link shows http://www.palinbachmann2012.com/ ……but it shows the Wonkette site.
OMG Wonkette has been taken over by Palin and Bachmann!!!!!!!!
They have infiltrated the hive….I repeat they have infiltrated the mother home….
WE ARE DOOMED! O.O
BOOM!!!!!!!
Was I just Wonkrolled?
Ken Layne: the long grift. thank you so much.
“It’s starting”
The Barney Frank on-line, gambling phase of the American decline, charged on Visa.
By-the-bye, has anyone looked into Barney’s campaign contributions from the on-line gambling industry? Of course not. Altho a flagrant sodomite, he’s a lib. Stupid of me to question one of my same feather.
In the Reno gulag, I’ll take the shattered bunk nearest the window.
There was a really pissed off guy in here earlier, spilling his goddamned drinks all over and yapping about missing cox and balls and such - perhaps he has just served us up a cold dish of revenge?
Ken Layne: right???? Weirder: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-510-595-2002 and http://www.forexnews.com/fxforum/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1509. Also.
Registered BEFORE the last election? Weird. Anyone know what the Oceanic 6 have been up to lately?
“My God, it’s full of Snark!”
..it all makes PERFECT sense to me, now….
Adolf Bachmann: Still valid - in fact, even more so…
Nice. You should also register LimbaughCantor2012.com and RonPaulSnuffleupagus2012.com just to make sure all your probable candidate URL registrations are covered.
Palin/Bachmann Batshit Overdrive would make me turn in my ovaries in shame.
randpaulr3v01ution.com
So, this is what the swine flu does to me. I just feverishly imagined that Sarah Palin was the new editor of Wonkette. Speaking of which, Ken, you don’t fire people nearly enough. It’s been a while since anyone got the good old Gawker heave…
obfuscator: Mr. President?
So, like, each word I type could actually be a whole ‘nother blog in another universe? And, like, we could all just be postings in a giant blog in another, bigger universe?
Dude, you have blown my mind.
Ken Layne:
So, your Saturday is something like this?
Ah, fuck it, I’m getting “CraigGingrich12″ for after they marry and run as the first gay Pres/VP team!
Ken Layne: So they were registered around the same time as the teabagger site.
Hmm.
I knew this was a closet right wing site, trying to fool us libtards who do not understand satire or snark.
Uncommon Nonsense: “Public Ivy (TM)”
I’ll still respect you regardless of which college you gratuated from, land grant or otherwise.
(Don’t you like how Coultier never bothered to mention the Ivy Leauge (cough cough) law school she went to is somewhere in the non-Ivy Middle-West.
So we *have* been assimilated? Okay, then: let the asshattery begin.
I think Michelle Obama should stop showing off and put on a sweater, also. There; I said it.
Is this an open thread?
9/11 was an inside job. Vote for Horsley. Also.
HOW DOES THIS RELATE TO WARBLOGGING?
It wasn’t me. I’d have linked to pictures of yiffpiles, not Wonkette. Oh, wait…!
You’ve had this domain since October and you don’t have any content for it? These two broads provide plenty of material. GET ON IT!
Will this web address go on my permanent record?
Well, in the defense of whoever did this mind blowing thing, Wonkette is the top site for Palin & Bachmann news. Wonkette, be proud that someone, somewhere, is acknowledging your contribution to the greatness of those two idiots.
Jim Newell: It won’t be for “forever.” It mean, just 2,000 years later and Rome is a thriving metropolis again.
An enigma tucked inside of a mystery then carefully wrapped in two layers of irony before being deep fried in bile and then gently sautéed in snark. sadly 30 minutes later you feel all empty inside but you would hit it again in a minute.
The guy who registered McCainPalin.com thought HE was just joking too!
I see what you did there…
Ewwww! You got palinbachmann.com in my browser, now I have to re-image my PC…
Hmmm, this is curious:
http://www.palinjindal.com/
culprit or vic?
OMargeSimpsonsBlackFriend: Yes, but somewhere, in an NSA database, we’ve all been flagged “kook”.
Okay, what the fuck is going on? Many humans need sleep.
j6n: Eh, I think I’m probably already there.
smartypants: Up already? My goodness.
Will this increase Wonkette’s hits by 2000%?
Jim Newell: This ticket will never materialize due to the fact that Michelle Bachmann is unable to wink. In fact, she cannot close her eyes.
I was half expecting to have that crappy Van Halen “Right Now” song start after i hit the link. Now I’m going to have to just put Blue Oyster Cult on my ipod instead.
You all suck for depriving me of that.
I will support the use of the term “wonkrolled”, and am now checking godaddy.com for other contenders.
V572625694: Just packing for R.E. camp. I’ve been intervened upon. They’re coming to take me away from my computer this afternoon. I will be at an undisclosed location for 2 weeks. I thought this was America. What about the Constitution which says I have the right to neglect my family for the sake of mind-fucking a bunch of foul-mouthed smartasses?
And what about you? The minute I turn my computer off you sexin-tax-porn talk with Custer.
Which is haught!
That much crazy could never coexist. Both of them tie their existance to their ability to make conservative me fawn all over them in a condecending way. I imagine the convention will deteriorate into a cat fight over the microphone.
Obvs the work of one Tony the Tiger.
Hey, whoever’s doing this, if you’re on here reading, a 301 redirect is better than frames for this type of thing… Unless you want to preserve the URL in the address bar, and if you do, you should at least add a cool favicon, like an eagle eating a mexican or something, and a batshit crazy title and meta-description would not be inappropriate, either.
If you’re gonna do it, do it right.
I think Jim was seeing some pink elephants last night…
This has led me to ponder on the meaning of “grassroots”. I have encountered the roots of grass and have not been impressed. It is all the same, it clings to dirt, it is a nasty shade of white, and once you unearth a bit of it with a garden fork you feel compelled to tug at it, revealing an apparently never-ending tangle of unpleasantnesss.
smartypants: Wait, tell me more about this camp. Real estate? Really extreme? And tell me you’re not leaving me. I swear it was just a one-night stand with CW! It won’t happen again!
I bid you farewell; I don’t know when I’ll be back.
They’re moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track,
But you’ll be hearing from me, baby, long after I’m gone:
I’ll be singing to you sweetly from a window in the Tower of Song.
V572625694: Re Education Camp, disguised as a vulgar display of capitalizzm in the form of a resort hotel. Apparently cyber love is wrong. Also, being obsessed with politics is not considered sexin, nor does it produce appropriate ‘pillow talk’. In addition, checking a website 80 times a day to see if anyone out there thinks one is funny leads to forgetting about paying the mortgage and not caring about someone else’s ‘day’. Even the cat, for fuck’s sake, was in on this intervention and shared that he was in fact without thumbs and unable to open his own food. Yeah, right.
Not that everyone here at Casa Smartypants isn’t a socialist muslin who voted for the Antichrist.
That’s not the problem. The problem is that I am ‘loved’ and ‘missed’. This is code for ‘are we ever going to have sex again’ and ‘where is the cereal’.
I will return to our polygamist relationship with CW and whomever wants to join our Mormontastic cult. Perhaps you will have finished that incredibly HAUGHT tax porn novel.
Nice versy, by the way, and thanks for that…More before I leave (I hope)…if not..Adieu.
smartypants: Oh wow….it really is re-education camp. A FEMA operation. Don’t give in! This is reality, the rest is an illusion. Good luck!
Stole the verse from my favorite bi-sexual, half-Jewish Canadian folkie, Leonard Cohen.
Great! Now which one of you will be willing to buy:
draftbachmann.com
draftbachmann2012.com
Hmmmmmm?
Damn. And I was all ready with campaign slogans like:
Batshit/Insane 2012 - Strictly For Teh Lulz
Mr Blifil: where time becomes a loop, where time becomes a loop, where time becomes a loop
There’s a ghost in the machine, and it’s flipping us off.
and have you seen the comments? It’s like a pack of 6th graders got lost in the library of congress!
I claim the conch.
I was hoping these sites were legit - anything that gets those two sharing plane rides is fine by me.
i think that is solid gold.
Enough mystery, it was I. I bought them both after this post: http://wonkette.com/403806, for no particular reason other than to fuck with the wingnuts. Originally I had it redirect to Obama’s site but that got boring, so I switched it to here, also for no particular reason. It took Newell about 12 hours to notice.
So do we continue to buy up wingnut domain names and wonkroll them, or does one of you creative types make up a dummy site for me to redirect it to?
