MAH BUTT! IT HURTS!

Ok, so here's the background. Somebody took the following picture of Senator Ben Saase and Chuckie Schumer:

Saase.jpg

Senator Sasse's response was pretty funny-something along the lines of "Senator Schumer and I look like two guys getting stoned outside a wedding", and the Washington Free Beacon decided to tweet the picture as a caption contest. That's when Ted Cruz weighed in:


Pretty funny stuff, and lots of people were laughing and giving Cruz Twitter high fives, and we can't have that now, can we? Someone might get the idea that a REPUBLICAN had a sense of humor or something.

Enter GQ.

First of all, the title of their article is, well, maybe a tish alarmist:

TED CRUZ SOMEHOW ALREADY RUINED ROMPERS FOR MEN!

Now the folks in GQ's twitter feed seemed to think that this made Cruz a hero (they don't all wear capes, you know), thereby not just invalidating their premise but inverting it, but I encourage you to go read it for yourself (it's only 2 paragraphs long). The spittle flecked vitriol (over a funny TWEET) is something to behold.

Sheesh, what an absolute riot that one is. See, it's funny because Ted Cruz is saying Schumer bought not one, but two rompers for men. And of course a snowflake like Democrat Chuck Schumer would wear something that only girls wear. Get it now? Get it? Look, we're not even saying that RompHims are stylish, but honestly we're just a little shocked that Cruz was able to destroy all of the Twitter fun the RompHim had provided over the past 48 hours this fast. This is why we can't have nice things.

GQ (aren't they supposed to be a FASHION magazine??) seems quite put out that people are mocking the sartorial splendor that is the RompHim. More than that, however, they are incensed that a Republican made a funny. These people have lost their damn minds.

Open thread until the ONT shows up.

58 Is GQ mad that Cruz ruined RompHims, or that he has ruined making fun of RompHims? It seems like the latter - they are not defending the RompHims but rather the memification of them.

And now, Ted Cruz, Mr. Uncool Square Guy, has joined in the fun, and that means now nobody else can make fun of RompHims anymore because they will then be like Cruz and every Republican must be DENORMALIZED (you have to say that in Dalek voice).

An Atlanta publication, dubbed "Wussy", has taken great umbrage at the mocking of the RompHims. If you mock it, you are a troubling misogynistic bigot.

The RompHims are wonderful, not just for cis-men, but for transwomen and non-binary folks who may not identify as men, but still need room for their cock and balls.

Thought I had Badmotorfinger too but can't find it. They still hold up. Cornell had a powerful voice. I was listening to a couple of his solo stuff on Amazon music on the way home from work this morning. Also very good. He mellowed out for them. I liked it. Probably check out the Audioslave stuff eventually, maybe. Never cared for that RATM idiot and he was in Audioslave too. RIP Chris. Didn't know you at all but your voice will be missed. Might be a stretch but vocally, he was on par with Freddy Mercury. Almost. Not sure Chris could hang with opera singers.

I have one. Snagged it from the electronics recycle bin at the dump. It works, too.

They also made eight-track recorders for a few years. If you recorded your own, you could record right over the track-change interval. So, instead of the long fade out/fade in of the pre-recorded tapes, you got continuous music with a brief clunk at the track change. Less annoying, really.

Nothing to be embarrassed about. Most women have a few hairs around the nip. I kept shaving the few I had and somehow they finally stopped appearing. One less thing to shave.

Hey, I have a Marantz 6300 Turntable that is gathering dust in the basement (well, it is old and works like shit now) and replaced it last fall with a new Audio Technica turntable which is apparently a knock off of the Technics SL-1200, but with added electronics that allows you to make digital audio files on your computer.

333 You do not want to use Nair on the nipples, or other "sensitive" areas. Google will find you cautionary tales.

A nipple hair search will find the tale of a poor girl who was afflicted with Magnum PI areolas and used Nair on them. The hair came right off she said, but she soon thought her nipples were going to come off too.

348 I had a nice pair of Infinity speakers, but after I moved into my dad's house I stored them on the ground floor, and one of them was ruined when water got in after a heavy rainstorm. I didn't discover it for awhile, and the wood got warped and the speakers rotted. I had to throw it out. I still have the other one, but fat lot of good that does me.

I've lived here 15 years now, and still never hooked up my stereo. I'd have to rearrange the living room, and I like it the way it is. Also, I don't listen to music as much as I used to. I got some speakers for my desktop computer, and that's good enough for my needs.

Or have the super-cool sales dude, with bell bottom jeans and white guy afro, put Foreplay/Long time on a turntable and crank it up just to show you how little distortion the speakers have. And nobody else in the store looking concerned about it, just rockin out.
