It's all fun and games until these freaks start to seek Blue Cross/Shield reimibursement for their "treatments".

[genefromjersey]

I'm sure she'll enjoy a prosperous relationship with Ithaca's "upper crust" : the bored wives of the " Intellectual Elite ".

[general_re]

This is why I could never live in Ithaca. I could handle the watermelon politics, I could handle the sanctimony and the smug self-righteousness that all good leftists have in spades, but what I can't stand, even for a minute, is this ridiculous New-Agey crystal-gripping pyramid-hat transcendental-meditating channeling-past-lives patchouli-and-turquoise-jewelry-wearing garbage.

I always thought of T-burg as the essence of Ithaca.

[NativeNewYorker]

The only thing in T-burg worth a damn is for sale!

[drjimmy]

Over the past twenty years, as they drove their own property taxes higher and higher in the city, the Ithacites have slowly migrated north to T-burg. In the process they are turning this once-bucolic small, conservative town into "Ithaca North."
Perhaps the Rongovian Embassy to the USA should start denying entry visas.

One of my favorite episodes of South Park is the one with "Miss Information" running a natural healing store and Cheech and Chong work their as "Native Americans".

Cherokee Hair Tampons was my favorite.

Nice Jewish ladies like Susan Weiner...

You misspelled "New Age Bubblehead". BTW Princess Di was real into this stuff.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

I often thought that "South Park" could be Ithaca....the cold weather, the stupid liberals.

Remember the Christmas ep where they couldn't do anything remotely religious in the school Christmas pageant so they made it a winter solstice festival and the kids did interpretive dance to the music of Phillip Glass?

Tell me that's not Ithaca schools.

[Phantom Lord]

Yes, but as I am sure you know, they were showing the idiocy of such actions by parents and 'advocacy groups'. I know of no other show on TV that ridicules and shows the idiocy of the left as much as and as well as South Park

And after all, Kyle's mom is a big fat bitch.

[oyez]

I didn't know Hillery had a sister.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

Yes, but as I am sure you know, they were showing the idiocy of such actions by parents and 'advocacy groups'.

Exactly. The City of South Park could be a satire of the City of Ithaca.

but what I can't stand, even for a minute, is this ridiculous New-Agey crystal-gripping pyramid-hat transcendental-meditating channeling-past-lives patchouli-and-turquoise-jewelry-wearing garbage.

Hey! I like turquoise jewelry! Why should they get all the turquoise???

[Psycho_Bunny]

She looks like a Patchoulite.

[general_re]

I bet you like it with sterling silver too, dontcha?

Damn dirty hippies are everywhere these days ;)

[Scothia]

That's a big 10-4, buddy.

[general_re]

Arrrgh. Well, I'm not moving to California, either. So there ;)

[rottweiller_inc]

hehe. Next thing you know democrats will be kissing the Blarney Stone.

[CPOSharky]

She's dead wrong. You soak the flowers in moonlight and rocks (I mean 'gems') in sunlight.

And in a full eclipse, woo-hoo, that essence is wild.

And I can prove it with the handy-dandy reference I will write some time.
