The Larry Kudlow Drinking Game

I saw a few clips of Fox Business Channel on Youtube. They suck. Are they gonna explain what an ADR is everytime they mention one? I guess they really are going for the total newbies. The ticker is grouped by sector. Good idea on paper but retarded in practice. Plus their big name is Neil Cavuto and despite getting his start in the Carter administration, he lost all credibility by taking a wide right turn into the arms of Faux "News"...

Which leads me to Larry Kudlow. How the hell does anyone but the rightest of right wingers stand to watch this guy? I turn the channel everytime he's on and I don't go back. Why the hell does he have Ann Coulter as a frequent guest? She's a right wing publicity whore with nothing of substance to add. What's her lefty counterpart? Al Franken? Can you imagine the Faux "News" headlines if Franken made appearances like she does? What a douche. Hey, Fox, please steal this guy from CNBC. Pretty please with an immigrant about to be deported on top?

Anyway... The Larry Kudlow Drinking Game:

1 sip every time he slams the Democrats or the liberals
1 gulp every time he praises Bush or mentions "The Greatest Story Never Told"
Finish your drink if Ann Coulter is a guest
1 shot every time he mentions free market economics
2 shots every time he praises Reagan

Babel

So I just finished watch the movie Babel. Jesus that was depressing. Yeah, it worked out ok for most of the characters but, damn, it made me want to kill myself. And 2.5 hours? Mein gott. The plot twists were too predictable except for the Japan one.

***Spoilers below***
Raise your hand if you felt creeped out watching that Japanese chick get all nekkid. Speaking of creepy... that scene of the kid jerking off. This is a fucked up movie.

Could the Mexican storyline be anymore obvious? Man, who didn't suspect that the nephew would be a total fuck-up. I would've opened up a can of whoop ass on that asshole if I was Amelia. And why didn't the border cop smell the alcohol on his breath when he first pulled up?

Did anyone else wish those annoying bus passengers get shot too? Man, I was praying the kid would somehow escape and unload on the gringos. I hope I'm not that selfish and crotchety when I get old.

The more I think about it, the more I hate this movie. The directing, acting and editing was good though so I guess it's just the writing I hated.

Oh yeah, 2.5 hours! Fuckers.

Pickles are cucumbers soaked in evil

I would totally get this shirt but I can't see myself wearing it outside. That and it's green.
