Quote of the Day by demosthenes the elder

[goldstategop]

Algore was an Alpha Female in the Ya-Ya Sisterhood in a past life.

What a pant-load of crapola.

A guy wrote this?

Thus, as is clearly explicated in "The Divine Secrets" it is not only acceptable, but a measure of greatness that an alcoholic mother abandons, assails and otherwise screws up her child, because she does it with style, which, as we know from the Academy Awards, is all that truly Matters.

It is better to look good than to feel good.

An ounce of image is worth a pound of performance.

What a pant-load of crapola. A guy wrote this?

I know. It's pathetic. This guy is in bad need of a week or two in Rio, where he will never again give a crap about the delusionally self-centered musings of female icons like these.

I evidently took the article in a different light than you. It appeared to me to be a veiled attack on modern women's attitudes.

[bleudevil]

Read it again. There's a little sarcasm goin' on.

As long as she has a big set of cans and a nice rump, the “goddess” can hold muh beer.

What a load of horse manure. Who wrote this tripe? Uh... oh.

Saw the picture of the dude. He's the guy in the airport mens-room who just hangs around.

[DWSUWF]

"...Read it again. There's a little sarcasm goin' on..."

I'll take your word for that.

But that doesn't change my take on it.

The problem with this sort of demented-distaff crap is that it comes out of the box so perverse and twisted that sarcasm and irony are lost on it.

It is better to look good than to feel good.

An ounce of image is worth a pound of performance.

You have nailed it--the reason that many voted for Jenny Mulhern, Michigan's next democrap governor.

[metesky]

Saw the picture of the dude.

Nice hat, dude!

[DWSUWF]

"...Nice hat, dude!..."

That answers my question...

Not a guy, in any useful sense of the word anyway.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

And need I remind anyone of the Al and Tipper Gore kiss? I think Rush named the women this author describes as "arousal gappers" (none are freepers).

[YourAdHere]

Speaking of "Ya-Ya," I read in this morning's Washington Post that Rosie O'Donnell's life partner had a baby girl last week, and the proud parents named her after the main character in this book.

testosterone-befuddled

Testosterone CLEARS the vision. Other hormones are known to muddle it.

Wow! Correct! Give that man a cigar!

[Lil'freeper]

It appeared to me to be a veiled attack on modern women's attitudes.

I'm with you. He's right on with his ridicule of the Diana cult and femminist infallability (love the sarcasm in that term). But I would expand his notion of decision paralysis and Mattering beyond "cosmic" importance to a much shallower level: decisions Matter because of what somebody might think. In this is the ultimate failure of Oprahphilic feminism. Appearances, and other people's opinions, still matter. Throwing off these chains is not accomplished by hating men, but by growing up.
