To The Metal

So the ESRB is revoking the M rating of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. What the fuck, are they going for an MM title or something? I obviously am missing the boat on all this.

With everything that can be done in the virtual world of GTA, DRY HUMPING IS WHAT FINALLY SETS PEOPLE OFF?

I’ve seen the video, it’s no more graphic than anything you’d see on any other game. Maybe it’s just America’s overwhelming fear of the female nipple that is the culprit in this case.

HOLY SHIT, DEY FUCKIN!

Went to Red Robin in Middletown for lunch today, had the reputation of making some great burgers… In all honesty, if I wanted a Whopper with pineapple and teriyaki sauce I coulda spent the $2 and made it, and not wasted $8 on the thing. I’ll admit, the fries were good, but the burger was really nothing that couldn’t be surpassed by something off the BK Value Menu. On top of that, the A/C was on the fritz so the place was a little warmer than it should have been, on top of that it took 25 minutes for the order to get to us. I think I’ll stick to TGIF or Ruby Tuesday if I want to go out to eat in Middletown.

Caught an article off of CNS regarding some statements by Paul Begala, that we Republicans have “done a p***-poor job of defending” the United States, and that Republicans want to “kill (him) and (his) children if they can” to support tax cuts for the rich.

Holy shit folks, I think Paul Begala just blew the big secret of the Democratic party and their Liberal cohorts… THEY USE MAD-LIBS TO CRITICISE THE REPUBLICANS!

Seriously folks, read the article, read his statement…

“They want to kill me and my children if they can. But if they just kill me and not my children, they want my children to be comforted — that while they didn’t protect me because they cut my taxes, my children won’t have to pay any money on the money they inherit,” Begala said. “That is bulls*** national defense, and we should say that.”

If that isn’t a damned Liberal Mad-Lib I don’t know what…wow, Mad-Lib. That has a whole new meaning now. I think I’m going to try and come up with a “Moonbat Mad-Lib” section for the site now.

In all seriousness, this is just another blatant example of why the Left keeps losing. They have no ideas. All they can do is criticise and react to current events in order to garner votes that never materialize past focused polls.

Ex-Clinton Aide Charges Republicans ‘Want to Kill Us’

If there’s any doubt that the US media is complete garbage, let it be laid to rest…

NOW

It’s a story about Army PFC. Stephen Tschiderer who took a shot in the chest from a terrorist sniper, got back up, zero’ed in on the enemy, took them out, and then PROVIDED MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR THE BASTARD THAT JUST SHOT HIM. Mind you that’s my summation, there is much more to the story that needs to be read.

I guess I missed where they aired the story on the evening news. Shit, there’s probably going to be an in-depth expose on the cost of prescription drugs in Iraq now, if anything.

It makes me sick to know that every single day heroic acts take place in Iraq and all we hear stateside is the negative.

Hell, I watched CNN the other day and they actually had a report on blogs. Conveniently enough they only snipped one sentence out of context to completely backup their editorial position. Scum.

Over the course of the past few weeks news has come to light about a modification in the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas game which allows the player to engage in salacious sexual congress with their virtual girlfriend.

Senators and media are up in arms. Hillary Rotten Clinton is calling for a probe. They want it to have a higher rating.

Typical Liberal knee-jerk bullshit. Mind you, in this game you can:
Steal any airplane including full size airliners.
Crash any airplane, even use the weapons to blow up motorists and civilians.
Execute Police and Military Officers at will, pay $50 to have your car repainted, then go and kill some more.
Steal any vehicle you want, run over people, hold up stores, etc…
You can even, dare I say it, spray graffiti.

…all that Hillary can talk about is virtual dry-humping in a video game. Good lord. If kids learn to dry hump they might stop masturbating…or even have sex! QUICK! TO THE MOONBAT CAVE!

I’m really starting to feel sorry for Bill, folks.

Clinton seeks video game sex scene probe

This is simply a play by Hillary to try and demonstrate her “family values” and make her more appealing to people who simply don’t know any better or were sound asleep from 1992 to present.

Well Sears had my car for a total of 2 days to complete the surgery it required. Day one involved them not getting to the car until about 11am, and then finally giving up around 4pm when they realized that the bushings supplied were the wrong ones. Apparently the metal sleeves weren’t of the correct diameter and wouldn’t fit on the bolts for the steering gear. So I wait until the next day after being told that the car should be ready by around 1pm, I get there at noon. Car is still being worked on, won’t be ready until about 1:30. So I go watch the new Fantastic Four movie…

The movie I am sad to say was fantastically mediocre. Perhaps I’ve been spoiled by the likes of the X-Men, Spiderman, and most recently Batman. I could forgive the plot, although it seemed much less alive than other superhero origin films… the effects were fine, but the character development was complete horse-shit. I’ve seen extra’s in a zombie picture have more character development than those of the movie. It’s not even a case of assuming the audience knew the comic book, as they completely BLEW the origin of Dr.Doom. What really annoyed me is that one of my favorite actors, Michael Chiklis was completely throttled. There were some scenes where he was able to shine, but not nearly enough to carry the movie. Its as if all the characters were confined into a 1 cell comic ala The Far Side and not allowed to explore the characters a little further. For lack of a better term, the whole picture, plot, effects, acting just seemed downright anal. Whoever’s idea it was to put this to the screen in its release format should seriously consider a new line of work…

Perhaps a tracer?

So I get out of the theater around 1:30 and head back to Sears. They’re still working on it, I’m told all that’s left to be done is an alignment and that should take 20 minutes. 20 minutes turns into an hour or so, and then I am notified of a new problem. The outer tie-rod sleeves which are used to adjust the toe-in and out of the wheels were shot and snapped. I eventually escaped around 4:30 with a car that once again rides like it is on rails.

Now I’ve started to de-badge the car, it looks like Stren 8lb with Goo Gone does the trick. So far its looking pretty good, I just need to take the Dodge R/T’s off the doors. I’m going to leave the I N T R E P I D on the trunk lid, but as all the other badges just looked like shit (including the new one I got just last year) it made no sense to leave it on the car.

Well it turned out that Sears ordered the wrong part for my car. I’m going to take a wild guess that they ordered the bushings for a non-R/T Intrepid (which doesn’t have the same suspension components as the 300M). Apparently the sleeve on the bushing was too small and wouldn’t fit over the bolts on the steering gear. I took the morning off in the hopes they’d have it fixed, I may end up having to take a V-Day today if they don’t have it done by lunch. Bah. Real kicker is I was just walking into the mall when they called to say they would need the car overnight. I miss my Dodge… ~sniff~

On the upside, the insurance thing appears to be sorting itself out. Apparently Oxford likes to deny all claims on the first attempt… I’m going to stay on this though, I do not need to deal with the bills for my friggin surgery.

Oxford denied all the claims for my surgery, apparently because it wasn’t pre-authorized. It *WAS* pre-authorized, the fucking doctor knew it and wouldn’t have done anything without it. This is what pisses me off about Goddamned insurance companies. I dump a significant chunk of my income towards the premiums, only if they fuck up *I* am forced to prove it. So now I’ve got to sit in limbo until Monday, wondering when I’ll be harrased over a $15,000.00 bill. I mean who the FUCK gets a hemmrhoidectomy for fun? I swear, I’m gonna fucking pop. I don’t need this stress. All I want to do is park my ass on a beach somewhere but NOOO… Something just has to keep fucking with me.

Did a bit of driving this morning trying to get my car taken care of. Suprisingly, Warwick Dodge was rather unreceptive to check out my car (wouldn’t even look at it). I suppose I’ve been spoiled by the convenience of waking up at 6:30am on my day off and dropping it off to get fixed. Ended up heading to Sears who took a look at the car (didn’t charge me anything) I need to install the anti-rattle plates on the front brakes (explains the thump) and I do need new inner tie rod bushings. Suresky’s wanted $520 plus $90 for alignment. Sears wants $320, plus $60 for alignment. I’m going to drop it off on Monday to have the repair done. After that I’ll throw some new kicks on the girl.
