Didya ever pick up a turn of phrase from another blogger?

I find myself thinking "this is a real thing in the world" from time to time. That's a title used for an ongoing series over at Shakesville, and boy oh boy, does it apply to this product.

Heteronormativity and sexism go together like a horse and carriage

So, immediately after I read a post on Shakesville about how several bloggers have suggested the Obama campaign use Scarlett Johansson, who's campaigning for them, as some kind of sexy vote bait for Jason Rae, who at 21 is the youngest superdelegate, I read at Joe.My.God that "Gay Man is Youngest Superdelegate." Ha! Misogynistic and badly researched!

We're Number One!

I found a meme over at Shakesville that I couldn't resist, knowing, as I did, what some of the answers would be before I even started. In short: "attempt to find 5 statements, which if you were to type into Google [...] you'll find that you are returned with your blog as the number one hit".

I believe my results show that while this blog doesn't have a huge amount of content, it is full of snarky goodness.


Here are my results:
1. that queer chick (duh!)
2. smooching baby dykes
3. ex-gay-o-rama
4. irrefragably evil
and my favorite,
5. Is there any motherfucker leading the "family values" movement who doesn't want to give dudes a blow job in a mens' room?

Those are all without resorting to the dread quotes. If you do enclose the search in quotes, this one works too: "once again, it's all about the dick".
