What can you say about 22-year-old New York Senate candidate Mindy Meyer that she has not said already? How about “rowr”! And also it is sort of adorable that Meyer’s website, which is basically a living Blingee, actually has a few issues on it as well! Like stopping “stop and frisk”! Wait, just what kind of conservative Republican is Mindy Meyer anyway? A terrible one, apparently!
Let us hear straight from the slightly oddly shaped mouth of law student Meyer herself:
Stop-and-frisk is when a police officer who is suspicious of an individual detains the person and runs his hands lightly over the suspect’s outer garments to determine if the person is carrying a concealed weapon. As long as an officer has reasonable suspicion, a stop and frisk is constitutional under the Fourth Amendment. Mindy believes that skin color does not warrant a “reasonable suspicion.” Mindy will not tolerate racially motivated stop-and-frisk. The NYPD’s stop-and-frisk practices raise serious concerns over racial profiling, illegal stops and privacy rights. The police are stopping hundreds of thousands of law abiding New Yorkers every year, and the vast majority are black and Latino.
Also? Moar afterschool programz!
No more “Hunger Games” in our District! Mindy believes that summer youth employment programs should be restored to receive the full funding that they had received in the past. In doing so, this will provide jobs during the summer months for teens and young adults who would be at home or in the streets doing nothing substantial otherwise. This will help them develop their resumes and job skills for the future. Mindy feels that career fairs and unemployment seminars should be more transparent and implemented throughout our district.
And then she poses with a bow and arrow, because she is Katniss except beautiful.
And there you have it! Wonkette has its newest pet Republican, and therefore we will agree with her that she is, er, sexy, which after all is a state of mind. [MindyMeyer]

I bet Mindy's never been stopped or frisked.
Allow me.
That hussy is wearing a skirt above her knees and her head isn't covered. She's really asking for it… wait. Isn't that the Muslin tradition? I get those confused.
Oy vey is mir.
Orthodox Jewish too, also.
She doesn't have to cover her head until she gets married? If I remember correctly.
Or she can shave her head and wear a sheitel (wig). (My cousin married an Orthodox Rabbi).
You remember correctly.
She's obviously circumcised.
Emmis.
a bissel.
(Hugs and kisses the Gem) And how is the shayne punim today?
Feh.
Well, she is kinda colored. Not sure what color that is, but it's something.
From the same bottle as John Boehner, obvs.
Gordon's gin?Sent from my iPhone
Ow! That tongue is so sharp, it should be classified as a weapon.
By the police? Probably not. By Eyal, or Etan, or Natan, or Avi, or Ari, or Dario, or…well, you get the idea.
Twice by Dario, actually.
What, once if by Avi and twice if by Dario? I just hope it wasn't Dario Argento.
I'd be happy to help.
Mindy feels that the New York State Senate is a great place to go through puberty.
From what I know of the NY State Senate, I think that's what they're all pretty much doing.
She will just provide fapping material for old white males.
Somebody has to do it.
You had me at Jewess. Time to makin' kosher bacon with teh jewess.
I'd Mork her.
Eww, no…
By the way, she lives in Flatbush? Really? She must run a seriously bad-taste bling store or perhaps one of those thousands of 99 cent store that seem to populate Flatbush Avenue.
She'd fit right in with those god awful looks.
She looks like a spare Kardashian without the intelligence. BOOM!
Mindy Meyer is dazzling. If she married Anthony Wiener, would she be Mindy Meyer-Wiener?
Sorry, I am bloated on Chinese food and the brain is not firing on all pistons.
Are you back? I've (we've?) missed you.
Hooray! Remember when Laugh-In used to do that? I have, as a worthless childhood memory, the line "If Totie Fields married Truman Capote, she'd be Totie Capote" . That and the young Goldie Hawn in a bikini.
Sock-it-to-meeeee?

And oh, the pressure/signing bonus to name their son Oscar.
Hope all are doing well.
Yes, all is well, thanks Chas.
I'll never forget when Dodger great Steve Sax named his son after teammate Orel Hersheiser.
Hersheiser Sax is a pretty great name, I have to admit.
Beautifully fielded, madame!
Merci, mon petit momser.
"Steve Sax named his son after teammate Orel Hersheiser"
Joey Buttafuoco was desolate to be left out.
Barb, is that you? Welcome back! And please don't let any jealous haters get to you–we love you!
Hey Callyson! I love you more.
Wait, what the fuck happened?
I should let Barb answer that herself–what I heard was there was some kind of conflict with another commenter. Glad she has returned, though…
Well glad for that; Barb's one of my favorite commenters here.
You're back! It was a long desolate time without your grade A snark to sustain me. But more importantly, I finally have more p-ness than you. Who's better than me? (Well, nounverb911 for one.)
Lol, my p-ness is quite tiny, isn't it?
Though it seems to be going up quite excitedly.
Growing by leaps and bounds. At this rate, you will have sucked up all the p-ness (not like that you pervs!) in the Western Hemisphere by the end of the month.
it's still one more than mine. The fuck?
I'm fisting you as fast as I can, geez, whatta complainer.
Come here, Becca. I will stroke you until it gets up like mine.
You are number one in our hearts Editrix!
I say, your new underscore is quite attractive!
Does my underscore my my p-ness look fat?
No, it's quite svelte.
Is zat you?
Hey, you are still here, WeeJee. I joined the search party for you.
Wilkommen!
I would join the others in crowing over the fact that I have a larger p-ness, but you're a GIRL! My p-ness is sposed to be more massive than your rubbin' nub!
You're back! I was gone for 2 weeks, and heard that you had left us in my absence. Glad you've returned! How are the grandbabbies?
Moses, where did you go for 2 weeks?
The babies are great. Mina is home and her incision is healing nicely.
I'm trying to think of something nice to do for the family who donated the needed heart with the parts that were used in the surgery.
For donating a heart, I'd send a gift card to Red Lobster and some flowers. For a kidney, no gift card. But that's just me.
Seriously, I remember coming to tears when you told the story of the donor and their loss, your family's gain. (That post is lost in the world of user deleted5554996.) The best thing would be to give them the knowledge that your granddaughter(?) will live big enough for two. But who can know.
And whoever saves a life, is considered to have saved an entire world.
I have no laughed once in five solid days and you just made me laugh until my belly hurt.
I'm allergic to shellfish. Every time I pass Red Lobster I say, "Dead Lobster, for the seafood killer in you."
I was in Florida with the kiddos, hanging out on the beach and swimming with dolphins. Wifi in my parents' house was down, hence no Wonketz. Missed everybody, but I was having fun.
Sounds like fun, Moses! It's always good to see you.
Any tan lines we need to know about?
How can you possibly have fun without wifi??
"I'm trying to think of something nice to do for the family who donated the needed heart "
A charitable donation in their name/in memory of the donor, perhaps to the american Heart fund or a pediatric hospital?
Hey Barb! Glad to see you. I peed in all the corners to keep the trolls away. So that's what that smell is.
I was wondering what that smell was. Thanks for helping!
Barb? Is that rly you?
You say that last sentence like it's a bad thing.
This thread perfectly expresses what I've been trying to say… you have WAY more friends than loser trolls here. And frankly that has me grinning like an idiot.
Thanks Abandon. I wish I could share half my coffee with you right now. Oh, bring doughnuts on your way. : )
I'm really confused by the term "troll." Lube was a troll, yes–a sock puppet to be more precise. But who else does that term apply to? Owls? Shorts? Gopherit? Mumbletypeg? Have you no sense of history at Wonkette?
Shorts and Gopherit certainly had a fine time spreading misinformation and attempting to start some sort of a panic here. Does that qualify as "troll" behaviour? And Lube turned out to be Owls, so if Lube was a troll, I guess that makes Owls a troll. Since Gopherit was not banned, despite his nasty attacks on Wonkette itself and on several commenters, perhaps he is not a troll after all. Or perhaps nasty attacks on individual commenters doesn't quite rise to the level of trolling behaviour.
I don't want to see anyone banned. But I don't see how a community can function in a healthy, happy way when some of its number spend all their efforts in taking down others.
Hey, MB.
Let me start by saying that my favorite quality of yours–what makes you, in my eyes, one of the besets folks around these parts–is your support for your fellow Jive Wonkies. For all I know, your life may be in a shambles, but you're always prepared to pass out the virtual hugs. You remind me that humility and compassion are not necessary alien to an avatar, and you make me aspire to be less self-serving on this board (and I always hope that others would follow suit).
I turned 40 this weekend, had friends and family in from out of town, so I missed most of the fireworks. I've read as much as I'm willing to hunt down, so I'm not aware of what the "misinformation" is that you refer to, although I do agree that there was a lot of nonsense. However, I don't see that this nonsense was confined to just Shorts, Gopherit, and owls/Lube. I guess I find self-righteous bravado and ingratiating fawning to be every bit as cancerous to the environment as dumb comments like "So-and-so sucks," especially when the result is an echo chamber wherein valued-for-years members of Wonkette are dismissed as mere "trolls" for (admittedly very) bad behavior.
I know you've said before that you'd like no one banned, and I'm with you. I'd rather see the airing of grievences done in a more forthright and dialogic manner. But I suppose that's not my decision.
For the record, I think we can distinguish between owls–a witty, longtime commenter who inspired me to stop lurking years ago and start commenting–and Lube without worry of being duplicitous, if for no other reason than the creation of Lube was owls' own attempt to do so.
Like I said, I'm 40, now, dammit. Somehow that makes this whole conversation seem just a sliver silly.
Barb! You're back!
It's been lonely around here without you, like a desolate wasteland. I was beginning to feel a sense of existential depression, kinda surreal, like a bad mushroom trip.
(Seriously though. Good to have you back.)
Thanks!
You get up too early.
Glad you're back, Barb. I felt a disturbance in the continuum.
Welcome back indeed.
Quite the opposite, actually; I go to bed too late.
There's one in particular of those Laugh-in ones (as mavenmaven mentioned) that stuck in my mind from the time I saw it. I couldn't have been more than 8 or 9 years old.
"If Kay Ballard married [astronaut] Wally Schirra, then divorced him and married him again, she'd be Kay Schirra Schirra."
Damn, Snooki really got her shit together.
Losing all that weight and now running for higher office.
You go girlfriend!
She looks like the girl my mother warned me about.
Republicans love flags so much, they're making a pink, white, and purple one for special candidates. And they're replacing the American eagle with International Hello Kitty. Black helicopters on the way, but chic ones, designed by Ralph Lauren and made in China. Patriotizm, dudes and dudettes!
Great … at the next Occupy event, the guys in the black body armor and helmets pepper-spraying the citizens will be the fashion police.
Arrest this man, his hitler hair-do is making me feel ill.
Kevlar is the new black.
"Wonkette has its newest pet Republican"
Your move, Meghan McCain.
I think the only way to judge for sure is if we get topless photos of them both.
Together, right? Just to make sure we have the same scale for both of them. Now they move towards each other …
The easiest test is to see who can 'hold their breath' the longest.
Meghan McCain will always be the Dark Horse State Senate Candidate of my heart.
"I can tell you one thing, I have no experience in corruption," said Meyer.
Miss Meyer… Are you trying to seduce me?
Well, there go my fantasies down the drain.
But she's rather naive and innocent, which I would think would be right up your fireplace!
Oh, absolutely. But that's strictly business.
Biely — that's what they ALL say. It's the squeaks between the sheets you need to pay attention to.
According to her theme music on her website, Miss Thing works out. You go, girl…
What say she and Huma Abedin have a naked wrestling match and the winner gets to keep Jerusalem?
OMG, you really ARE a middle-aged man!
Told ya!
This is the kind of forward-thinking, creative problem-solving that will help get America back on its feet!
And it's coming from a Brit, of course.
Yeah, and they could do it every five years, just like democracy!
How are you not Secretary of State?
Don't know, because I would be excellent, maybe you have to be a US citizen? Maybe the GOP wouldn't approve of my sexy, yet sane, solutions for Middle East peace.
Too bad you weren't High Commissioner during the British Mandate between 1918-1948. Probably be a more peaceful place now.
Only if it goes three rounds.
With mud.
James Sensenbrenner can also occasionally say a compassionate thing, but it doesn't mean I want to fuck him.
Claudia was always my 2nd least favorite Party of 5 character. FYI!!
They all sucked. Every single one of them. But Neve Campbell was crazy hot so who cares.
RJINO!
Mindy Meyer and the RJINOS. Kind of like her Pips.
Look, the Palestinian people deserve their own state and a halt to violence and oppression from Israel. What's her take on that?
Exactly.
We don't need any zionist heroines.
Is it fair to lay that on her just because she's Jewish? It's kind of refreshing that there's nothing about the Middle East on her site.
She is after all running for state senate. As far as I know NY State doesn't have a separate foreign policy just yet. But yeah, nice that she doesn't feel the need to pander, then again she doesn't need to.
I was thinking more of Jewish AND Conservative Republican but you're right.
True but keep this in mind, if she was born to Palestinian parents in Gaza City, that website could be grounds for her brother to legally kill her.
To be fair, the same could be said for a number of zionist groups as well…
Thank you. There are plenty of nutbag Jewish fundies who run around beating up women for showing an ankle or owning an iPod. ALL fundies of any religious stripe tend to be nutbags.
Of course, those nutbag Jewish fundies are generally *anti*-Zionist. Say what you will about the assholes in the settlements (and I do), they aren't running around killing their sisters over "family honor".
"We endorsed her," said Jerry Kassar, chairman of Brooklyn's Conservative party. "…We were very excited after we met with her…"
I'll bet…well, WTH, who am I to deny this guy a little fapping?
Websites with music that auto-run should be nuked from orbit.
At least put a pause button in a visible place. I end up cutting off the BBC world service when I click mute on my laptop.
Or videos that auto-play in ads. How is that OK? Every time I open my favorite websites, the videos are all, "Hey, good-lookin'! You searching for some young, hot pussy?"
I know, right? And the things that the ads say are annoying, too.
Well, ARE YOU?
My initial comment was going to say “The fact that I AM is totally beside the point.” But then I was, all, “Oh, that's really fucking classy, Annie.”
Geezus, this is the fucking Wonkets, it was just a matter of time before *some*body said it, girl. (slinks away all ashamed)
I'm not getting music – maybe it's a benefit from Firefox, or from us overloading her server.
Possibly both.
A) Flashblock is your friend.
B) I'm getting a "quicktime plugin has crashed" message which might illustrate a flaw in her cunning plan.
Upside to farking her server? She will now think she's awesomely popular and will spend up for the better server package, after which she will receive exactly 47 hits.
I'm guessing that 47 hits is what crashed her server (her old Compaq from high school that she took out of the basement and dusted off.)
This.
She also intends to help our young involved in gang related activity by restructuring their lives by helping them work toward a degree.
Mindy believes that summer youth employment programs should be restored to receive the full funding that they had received in the past…
Cue the wingnuts calling her a RINO Commie in 3…2…1…
Admittedly, she hasn't exactly posted any position papers on the site, but what she HAS said about her positions is SO lefty that I'm beginning to wonder: Has the IWW *really* successfully infiltrated the NY State Senate, Republican Party, and Conservative Party?
This is New York City, where Zombie Trotsky would be a mainstream Republican.
HA! Makes me wish I lived there. If only I could bear the cold and not having fresh fruit & vegetables for half the year!
The best thing about her is like all Jewish women she likes circumcision everything 10% off.It's a bargain!And her favorite wine is"I want to go to Miami."
Well she’s no Elizabeth Warren but I will admit she is hot for a Republican.
Methinks shethinks the same.
Check out her Photostream; she's striking the exact same beauty-queen-remedial-school pose in every freakin' picture.
Gentle, ingratiating smile, face full-on to the camera, eyes submissively gazing into the lens, slight head tilt, body turned most of the way to a profile, front shoulder dropped, back leg straight, front leg subtly turned and bent to accentuate the calf.
Meh. She reeks of the lamp. Color me disinterested.
Her campaign slogan is "Mork, Not Pork."
Not for nothing, but no one else is smiling in her photo stream.
And she has the exact same expression on her face in every single one of those photos. Are we sure she's not really a robot?
You're the expert on robots, Sorosbot.
Au contraire. Her appreciation of Zombie-Americans seems to perk them up heartily. Also, too: cocaine is a hell of a drug. Damn.
But yeah, generally not so much. I love the chess table dudes, conspicuously not playing chess.
I didn't know a T-1000 terminator could go to pot like that.
Also, the guy in the wifebeater looks especially happy to be a photo-op prop.
She might want to either go with a smaller-capacity purse or stop carrying her entire campaign with her everywhere, because she seems to be listing to one side in every picture. Or as Spy said years ago about celebrity lady photos, draining water out of her ear constantly.
Possibly one leg shorter than the other?
Legally Blingee
Niiiiice.
Blingees are a perfect way to exalt a nine year-old's political ambitions.
Hmmm, something tells me that there will soon be a porno on the Internet called “Stop 'n Frisk." And a Mindy Meyer lookalike will probably be the star.
I'm so confused. A Republican that is AGAINST people of color being randomly frisked?
I'm tellin' ya. That sounds like a lefty to me. Even here in very lefty CA.
That website CANNOT be real.
"I'm Senator and I know it"?????
ETA: Did not realize it has music. (Speakers turned off on work computer.)
If you're as senator and you know it,
Then your face will surely show it
If you're a senator and you know it, clap your hands.
Is it set to "I'm Sexy and I Know It"? Because that might make me actually love her.
I'm the Captain, and what I say goes!
" I'm Senator, and so can You".
WIN.
Thank you.
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy,
but here's my website, vote for me, maybe?
Heh.
Mindy/Bristol 2020!
Another trial marriage?
Damn that's a lot of pink!
On her website…
Awwww, your love for her must have crashed her website! That's a sad
That permanent tilt to her head would suggest a weak neck or a lopsided head.
Every week she gets an adjustment so her head tilts the other way.
She and Romney must share a chiropractor.
From the available evidence, 95% of all modern cameras have this head-tilting problem. I thought is was something to do with the tiny lenses, but why would it affect mostly women? (And gay men?)
She has one gigantic boob.
WTF kind of a burg is "Flatbush"? I like my bush tall and wild.
Brooklyn
Launching pad of Rocky and The Fonz: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_lords_of_flatbus…
Flatbush is the name of a store that sells panty hose.
Sad that we seem to have slashdotted her site. I needed to make with the eye stigmata!
Does James "BowChikaBowWow" O'Keefe do campaign videos or only libelous take-downs?
Is this a joke? Or is her daddy trying to buy his princess a political career?
Somebody needs to buy her a shade of lipstick that doesn't make her look like a very tan zombie. When did women start wearing this weird-coloured waxy shit on their lips that makes them look like they have a pair of writhing earthworms pinned on?
Funny, she doesn't look Druish.
It's an industrial strength hair drier and SHE CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT
Of *course* we've all seen the movie!
Then you can tell by the lines I'm reciting/that I've seen that movie too…
That's what I meant, sweetie. You're ONE of "we all," you know.
I would hope she doesn't look like Walid Jumblatt
He was just the most *famous* one, yaknow.
I was highly disappointed in the photo gallery. Just saying.
For instance, it's hard to fap to this. Or how about this?
You're doing it wrong.
Check out the undead chick on the left.
I just wanna say, in Mindy's defense, that most Young Cons like her avoid the poor and the brownish. She might turn out to be a total asshole, but the evidence is somewhat lacking so far.
Somewhere else I said this, but as reasonable as she seems to be, why the fuck is she a Republican?
Mom and Dad, no doubt. She's a little girl, she probably still lives at home, her ideas are unformed. She seems to be kinda-sorta erring on the side of social justice and fairness, so even though she's a silly little ditz, I can't find it in me to mock her. Bachmann, I can bring out the water cannons for. This one, eh. She'll grow up and learn what life is about. Hopefully, she will always speak up against things like racism and racial profiling. When I think about how my own ex-MIL had no qualms about referring to me as "that schwartze" throughout most of my life with her son, I'm grateful Mindy doesn't seem to suffer from the same "schwartzitis."
How do you do that? Mirrored contacts? I want that.
That's a lotta magenta there. She any relation to Riff-Raff?
I hear she has friends in Columbia.
We could use ♪♫ a jump to the left…♫♪.
Indeed.
That's actually a pretty good law school. I'm impressed.
Ah, it's in Harlem…
Morningside Heights. Bit of a diff.
Urp… finally took a look at the Magenta Monstrosity. My eyes are gonna hurt for half an hour now. And not Columbia, but Touro College, so nevah mind.
I was feelin done in. Couldn't win. :(
…no use getting… into heavy petting…We saw that the night after the SF party for our 15th anniversary.Creature…of the night…
He's right here, somewhere. CRE_ature?
Hot? More like hot tranny mess.
As opposed to tranny-ness? That you, Lettuce?
It's me, indeed! Did Bunny's offer for a $1,000 blow job give it away?
Awesome. No, she still says I'm not blowing…Can Brandt watch?
Weren't you Lettuce Prey just MINUTES ago?
That has got to be the pinkest website I've ever seen; Barbie and My Little Pony have nothing on Ms. Meyer.
I thought "living Blingee" had to be an exaggeration however, fuck no, it is not.
I would not hit that. Less eye makeup, less orange tanner, less frosted lipstick. Even then, it would still be a no.
I don't like that lipstick thingy. Dead people's lips turn that pale colour. Most unappetizing.
I'm guessing she's a Fuschiardic Jew?
No matter how hard you try, you can't make her the next Sarah Palin, because, duh, law school.
Mindy can't service my requests.
Not enough capacity.
Everybody off the net, she's mine!
Yeah, her website went down and I'm willing to reciprocate.
"A lifelong Flatbush…"
A close trim is now a qualification for office?
Now let's hear a rebuttal from the Brazilian candidate.
I always called Flatbush Pantyhose Pussy.
Does she have a sister?
IF she wins, I wanna Jewish legislator fap off. Mindy Meyer v. Debbie Wasserman Shultz, best of three falls, one of which must involve substantial quantities of mud.
HELLO Gentile people.!!1! Creeping BackdoorTalmudic Law.
if she took her clothes off I could confirm whether I seen her on youporn or not
Coincidence?
Srsly- what's she like beneath the makeup?
"… the vast majority are black and Latino."
I'm sure it's not a bit more than 99%. … OK, maybe just a bit.
I'm surprised she doesn't spell Mindy with an i and a heart dotting the i.
Or "Myndi".
Um, guys? Is there a reason we are attacking this woman over her appearance? I know, I am the one who gets pissy about that, but since I can't look at her website, I can't figure out if she calls herself "sexy" or if that's just a tag that Wonket has attached to her out of spite or something?
I ask, because while her style might not be my personal preference, nothing she was quoted as saying seemed worthy of mockery to me.
you really do have to see this website…. her campaign slogan is " I'm senator and I know it"
Nobody is really poking fun, much, as they are imagining the fun of poking.
Yes, it's a kind of mincing cuteness and oblivious self-entitlement carried out to the nth degree that would be amazing in any context, but is here a to-all-appearances serious run for political office.
hahahhaha yeah. like that's never happened in the republican party before…
Really? Just give me one … Oh. Right.
Candidates who model their political career after Elle Woods from Legally Blonde are not be mocked. Unless they're Marcus Bachmann.
I'm mostly making fun of her because her website looks like a bottle of pepto bismol threw up on it.
I'm cool with people mocking the site. I guess it's when people are like "I would not hit this in a million years" that my feminist feathers get ruffled. Like, sure, maybe she's not my type, either, but she's doesn't seem like a horrible person.
Wait. What? Republican and NOT a horrible person? I'm gonna have to sit with that one for a while.
I know, I had to go lie down for a while to process it.
Well, look, I'd hit that, except that she's old enough to be my granddaughter and is suffering from post-teen-kinda-libertarian-brainfart-syndrome.
Hey, Rebecca started it. She told me to fap to her forgodsake!
Annie, I actually tried really hard to SUPPORT her sexiness — because yeah, her website autoplays "I'm Sexy and I Know It."
But she is our New Republican Pet, so … sure! She's sexy!
I just saw the site – it was down for a few hours. She's… quite something.
"career fairs and unemployment seminars should be more transparent"
"In doing so, this will provide jobs…"
Not bad by current US standards of butchering the English language, but still … how do you get through law school writing like that?
I will say that in my long life, I have met people who apparently actually manage to practice law without being able to speak in grammatical sentences. Which amazes me.
Gah. The girl's probaby a star at Touro.
Bugs me because I used to get raked over the coals for using a semicolon in a not-quite-prescribed manner. Danged picky Jesuits…
I went to Catholic school myself, and it still surprises me that we all graduated with all digits intact, since the nuns were fond of remedying our insouciance towards grammatical rules with a swift arpeggio of rulers on knuckles.
It's amazing how those tactics cement knowledge into the youthful skull.
Annie: She's a moron and an idiot, pure and simple. You can't see that? You need new government and politics glasses, or contacts. She's an idiot!
She might be a bit of a ditz, but I don't see that as a reason to suggest that she is unfuckable or to pick apart her appearance. I feel like it's one thing to go after people who are extremely hateful and who spew awful rhetoric online. It's quite another to attack a young woman's appearance because you think she's dumb. It's cowardly and stupid.So enjoy your political “view”. I'm sure it's crystal clear and gives you tons of satisfaction.
Annie: You are aware that Wonkette is first and foremost….a humor site? You know this, right? Any, if not all, comments–except yours–are humor-oriented, humor-intended and, uh, about humor. No one is taking anything seriously–except you. Next time, post something funny–it's a lot more fun! None of our comments about "appearance" are meant to be taken seriously, even if we think Meyer is wearing ten coats of cheap backstage theater pancake make-up too much, and her Goth Princess eyeliner is a laugh, and her hair is ugly and her nose is waaayyy too big!*
*Annie–that is humor. So are 99 percent of the comments at Wonkette. Including all of the comments about how ugly Meyer is.
Oh, wow, humor. That had never dawned on me. Thank you so much for helping me understand the blatantly obvious. As I've brought up before, I don't enjoy going after idiotic but otherwise harmless people over their appearance. Want to mock the design of their website? Fine. Mock her writing, her ideas, her weird pictures taken with grumpy, chess-playing men. But I draw the line, humor-wise, at “Wow, that chick is so ugly, I would never fuck her.” Unless that person is a horrific racist or a terrible sexist or unfathomably stupid, I don't see anything funny about mocking someone's appearance. Although I don't want to hold a double-standard, it's particularly troubling when aimed at women, because that is primarily how we are told that our ideas don't matter: we are told that we are fat and/or ugly (by other women as much as men).The comments about her appearance are NOT ironic. They are snarky, but they are meant to be stinging. I accept it when we are going after crazy old racist white women who allow themselves to be filmed while complaining about how they can't say “nigger” anymore, but I DO have the right to raise an objection when I think that the target is being unfairly maligned.Also, while you may think that your example above is humor*, it's not funny.
I can guarantee there's not one hetero male poster here who would not "hit that." Anything to the contrary is posted for laffs.
PBS's National Business Report just reported that the U.S. spends as much on defense as the next 15 countries combined. Salon reports the one-third of Americans that own guns own a total of 300 million. Maybe we should pull our 192,248 troops out of the over 150 countries they're deployed to (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_military_deployments) and instead have them keep the peace here. And if we could keep the CIA, the oil companies, and our meddling politicians out of the affairs of the rest of the world we might have a more peaceful country.
How does this help with fapping? I'm sure it does, but math is hard.
It doesn't help but this will. Beautiful Jewish girls in MILITARY UNIFORM: http://citizensmagazine.com/TOP_50_Most_Beautiful…
I want to emigrate, convert, and join up. What a great recruiting poster!
bookmark, meet page.
Oooh, yeah-my instructors in IDF tank school were hot. Nice memories 23 years later (the only nice memories from tank school, BTW).
So many shayne maydelehs.
OhhhhKay. Mindy needs a photo in camo with one or two friends, and we're done.
So she's graduated from Myspace to her own little political website that resembles her Myspace page? Yeah, I can see where this is going…NOWHERE. And she's rather tacky and icky actually. Nice spray on tan darling.
Speaking(?) out on behalf of Orange-Americans everywhere!
Speaker Boehner? Zat you?
Mindy had better hope the Alphabet Killer doesn't get loose.
Damn but I do hate the word "Jewess". I had a parochial school teacher who often used it, always when referring to attractive popular actresses. Always had a curled lip snarl and hiss to the way she said it. Now it just makes my skin crawl, like the n-word or the epithet "wetback."
I find it really uncomfy, too. I keep finding it in the "classics" that I am revisiting (because I honestly don't remember reading The Great Gatsby in high school), and I get skeeved out every few pages.
Yeah, if our esteemed Editrix weren't a fellow RSP (Red Sea Pedestrian), I'd have taken offense.
An MoT.
Emmes.
I don't like it either, and want to point out that a term like that is only used for two ethnic groups: Blacks, and Jews. Negress and Jewess are most uncomely words, to me.
You know, that has never bothered me. I'm not Jewish (or anything), but I grew up with a lot of Jews, and they all called themselves Jews, and that was about it.
What you have made me think about, however, is that there are no Catholicesses, or Baptistesses, or Presbyterianesses, or Muslimesses. (There are actually Mormonesses, but that's a pretty small group).
It's a tie-the-religion-to-the-ethnicity thing, isn't it?
Fuck. It's hard to realize you're a doofus when you're 64.
FWIW, bobbert, you don't look a DAY over 50.
I weep for the future. And I'll never wear pink again.
Screw that! I'm going to wear pink regardless of some dipshit running for her local office. I prefer a softer pink though, it goes well with my NATURALLY tan skin. She could have at least posed for a serious picture, instead of a webcam gaze in a suit…
Elect her if you want New York, but realize that after she is sworn in the blowjobs stop happening.
Dear Mindy, a friendly piece of advice- don't hire your little brother to design your website…
I love, love, love the photo section of her website. She's posing will all these random people and half of them looked pissed off. Is that just a New York thing, or does everyone really hate he?. The old men playing cards is the best one.
It was blank when I looked. Did you steal them?
Some of them looked like they were from her prom. Mebbe I broke them?
The old men look like immigrants from Russia. Old people from Russia always look pissed off.
♩ ♪ I wish I was a Wonk-in-Meyer weiner, cause that is what I'd truly like to be..♫ ♬
I think you mean a "bonking-Meyer weiner".
No way. I'm imaging her voice sounds just like Fran Drescher. I'll stick with Megs, thanks.
slightly oddly shaped mouth…?
Really? I think she has a purt….errr, pretty mouth.
Her lack of experience is a problem for me. I would like to offer her a position on my staff to rectify the situation.
Ok, joke about her appearance and OSM (oddly shaped mouth)…uncool.
But damn…her website deserves any and all kinds of scorn that could be heaped upon it.
I think it's all being done by Mattell – they're test-maketing the new "Candidate Barbie" line. Of the available anthropomorphic candidates, she'd be a better choice than Mitt Romney, so I expect them to go national.
"Candidate Barbie" appears to be the teabaggers' Last Best Hope of winning the WH for EVAH.
Her skin looks sticky. And not after I spunk all over her face – I mean, it looks sticky even before that.
But seriously folks…
Her "platform" seems to consist of pandering to the blahs and Latinos with end stop and frisk (which she doesn't actually say she wants to end, only the "racially motivated" part), and then calling for school vouchers which would mostly allow the poorer Orthodox (stop snickering) to send their kids to religious day school.
If she's figured out how to keep both the orthodox and the brownz happy, she's a fucking political genius.
Before I fap, I wanna see what she looks like without the photoshop face-squeegeeing.
Isn't sexy + conservative an oxymoron? (
Nice photoshop of the head shots. She looks like liquid plastic was poured over her face the the pictures taken after it hardened.
If I marry her, will I be a Shiksa god?
She appears to have a thing for old men.
She knows that the younger ones are less likely to vote.
In your dreams…
Oh, shit, yo. I thought you were kidding about the Katniss thing.
Just in time for the next season of Fox's "The Real Housewives of Carl Paladino."
Aahh, Orthodox girls from Brooklyn-always keeping it classy.
Ey! She's a nice girl. Not her fault she doesn't know from good taste.
That was sort of my point, MB (Z? WLBH?). In my experience, Orthodox girls from Brooklyn don't know from good taste. And that accent? Oy! (Sounds even worse in Hebrew, believe it or not).
Careful, Wonket. Remember the last time you fell for a Republican hottie.
Can a Jewess be a lesbian? Can a Jewess be a republican? Are these things even allowed???? Bloomberg will have something to say about this naughtiness.
Haven't I seen her somewhere before? Jersey Shore?*
*(have never seen Jersey Shore)
This isn't real. There is no goddamn way that this is real.
Mindy Meyer is 'sexy' like–
-Sarah Palin is 'coherent'
-Mitt Romney is 'human'
-Newt Gingrich is 'smart'
eh, you get the idea…
That lip gloss is very popular now on hookers in Times Square. It's an Estee Lauder shade called "Princess Labia".
Why the long face, Mindy?
I've been waiting for a traditionalist.
Usually the low-hanging fruit is gone by the time I check in.
Glad her web designer is either 13 years old or gay, gay, gay.
Another one with the crazy eyes.
Behold!!! Octomom and Snooki had a baby via immaculate scissoring .
El Pinche, man, your av is just CRU-EL!
I exploit to give back the funny. Well..I try.
Works for me, dude.
Snarklessly, here's my main concern. She seems to be a quite nice person, and slightly undefined politically, but she's what, 22? Question is, why is she a Republican?
She doesn't know any better yet.
Because she is a moron and an idiot. She's just a moron.
I real life Elle Woods. Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle
Is she circumcized?
Um. I need a shower.
No, not a cold one.
If she's running for NYS Senate, why the hell is the US Capitol in the pic behind her on that Kardashianesque disaster of a website? Chuck and Kirsten better watch out.
I want a nasty little Jewish princess
With long phony nails and a hairdo that rinses
A horny little Jewish princess
With a garlic aroma that could level Tacoma
Lonely inside
Well, she can swallow my pride
I want a hairy little Jewish princess
With a brand new nose, who knows where it goes
I want a steamy little Jewish princess
With over-worked gums, who squeaks when she cums
I don't want no troll
I just want a Yemenite hole
I want a darling little Jewish princess
Who don't shit about cooking and is arrogant looking
A vicious little Jewish princess
To specifically happen with a pee-pee that's snappin
All up inside
I just want a princess to ride
Awright, back to the top…everybody twist
I want a funky little Jewish princess
A grinder; a bumper, with a pre-moistened dumper
A brazen little Jewish princess
With titanic tits, and sand-blasted zits
She can even be poor
So long as she does it with four on the floor
(vapor-lock)
I don't even have to use the Googlez to know Zappa when I see it.
Sarah Silverman's younger sister
Lacey Chabertowitz makes me want to pants-plotz.
Mindy Meyer is a moron, an idiot, a child still, ignorant, inexperienced–and she's not really that good-looking beneath that horrible pile of dime-store make-up and tacky dark-black hair coloring. Meyer should be home cooking up bacon, smoking some good ol' country ham, cookin' up some shrimp on the barbecue, and making venison and pig sausage in the kitchen.* That's what she should be doing!
*–intended stereotyping, over-the-top, offensive humor. do not write bitter letters.
But she is a moron and an idiot.
Mindy Meyer is beautiful! She's quite attractive, really! I think she would make a great, insightful, intelligent, intellectual, qualified, experienced, knowledgeable, well-rounded, analytical, diplomatic and engaging politician, full of wordly, experienced, insightful viewpoints on all manners of politics–education, transportation, infrastructure, corrections, courts, roads, utilities, planning and zoning, health and human services, firefighting, police issues, crime issues, housing, affordable housing, agriculture, justice, labor, commerce, economy, jobs, economic development, natural resources, farming, the environment, energy, recycling, green issues, and numerous other issues! At the age of 22, we're all confident that she has a great, well-rounded, insightful viewpoint on most of these issues!
You typed all of that with one hand?
You CAN make this shit up. Tell me that you did, right?
Shades of Legally Blond…………..sans blond………..
I am askert of the robot with the huge p-ness.
LOL
wait what?!?!?! did you hit the 'p' point ceiling and have to start over like equity union points?
Yeah, now I have the biggest p-ness around!
Well except for MittBorg I think.
Fuflans, that's very funny, thanks!
Yep, the market crashed and I am blaming Wall Street.
*cough*
OK, indulge me, I'm paranoid: is that RLY Barb?
Yes, it is REALLY me.
Yep – commiegirl vouched for her in the OK NRA video comments.
Good. Because I followed you.
(Scritches HistoriCat's ears most fondly)
Feeling more shayne since I've been hugged and kissed by you. And how's by you?
Beach+dolphins+7-year-old daughter=fun.
Actually, I eliminated one or two tan lines.
A bit grim in these parts. The Old-Man Kitteh has a growth on his foot. It was biopsied, there are spindle cells, but it's not clear that it's neoplastic; might be an infection. No pain, but he keeps chewing at it, so there's blood everywhere, and I am not a person who likes to have blood all over my house floors. I am distressed. And you, my love?
Well, if I think I've given such a softball reference, I try to follow it with something more obscure. Did you follow?Of course, there's the plural second person “y'all”, and the plural plural second person “all y'all”Sweetie? You might have moved me up the Kinsey scale, if Daphne Zuniga circa 1990 didn't bring me back ;)
I will gladly be your petit momser, kindeleh.
No. As a person of furrin extraction, I have difficulty following a lot of the cultural references that the rest of Wonketz seems to take for granted. Thank goodness for Google.
I'm part of the Welcoming Committee of Wonketz, you know. It's my job to make sure everyone feels welcome here and gets the hugs they need.
"there are spindle cells, but it's not clear that it's neoplastic"
I had a spindle cell nevus on my shoulder; it was benign.
Hope your kitteh turns out to be OK.
Thank you. He's lived with us for 16 years. After that long, it's like family.
Just a reminder — GP was the more-or-less-official-photographer of teh SF Drinky Meetup. I have no idea why he has only 80p, but he is not a new person. Nor is Ms GP, although she may not have a nym.
16 is quite a lot in cat years. Hope he pulls though this.
That is a fabulous equation!
Thank you, bobbert. You don't know how much I appreciate your kind thoughts. But at 16, it's just a matter of time. The waiting and watching is the hard part. I might have to take a week or two away from Wonketz soon. He's needing round-the-clock attention at this point.
I know, I saw the pix, and he is CUTE! I always thought Ms. GP was NakedBunny. No?
You know I get all my thrills vicariously through the lot of you, right? I'm a gimp, and my life is books, movies, my garden, and the Wonketz. I used to hike 20 miles of a weekend, but now I can't get down my fucking stairs any more, so I stay home and hang out on the computer when I'm not reading or watching films or tormenting the cats in the garden. So GP is completely and totally safe from the likes of me, except vicariously.
They will if she marries an Arab.
(Hugs you) Hey, Cap'n, aka User,
Just FYI I agree with everything you're saying. But *popularity* is a big thing, even in a group of very intelligent commenters. I wish I could talk to Pdog, Owls, Extem, further, just because I believe in dialogue and negotiation. But it's not my decision any more than it's yours. I just tried to keep the flames from spreading and err on the side of compassion to all. Frankly, I suspect it's not appreciated, and that's fine. I didn't do it to win any prizes. I'm sad that grown people can't resolve their issues without name-calling and invoking authority. But it is what it is, my friend. Thanks for saying some things that need to be said, but I suspect you'll find very little appreciation for this comment either.
I'm determined to hold my peace and be as good to everyone as I can be without compromising what I believe in. You will get no hostility from me. And neither will any of the others so long as they don't attack me personally. I apologize if I came across as rude to you.
Fuck it all. Happy Birthday, darling. I hope you enjoyed the hell out of your birthday. Life's too short to fuss and fight or hang out with those who do.
Perish the thought; I appreciate you like a motherfucker.
You are both the cat's meow and pajamas.
This motherfucker appreciates the fuck outa you too. (SqueezeHug)
