Bunch of unrelated stuff that comes across my Google Reader:
On this Soviet caricature the sweaty capitalist props up what looks like a graph of a dollar exchange rate, while pushing down the graph representing the workers’ standard of living. According to the source (which you cannot read, but I can;maybe you should become bilingual) this was drawn in 1978. I guess nothing has changed in 30 years.
Few days ago I received an invitation from a church where I am apparently not welcome (and I was that close!)
It actually said “If you are a sour pickled-person and you are allergic to fun, laughter, awesome music, the Bible and over-all good time, then please don’t come to our church”. Well, if you already know everything about me, why did you send an invitation? Thanks for calling me “sour pickled”, jackasses.
And speaking about love, recent studies show that if you want to retire early while your wife is “bringing home the bacon” (unless you are Jewish, then who knows what your wife might be bringing home) you should stop looking for women with hourglass figures. They are nothing but trouble. Sexy, sexy trouble. If you listen to the science you may live the rest of your life in luxury, while your less-educated peers are working their asses off to support dependent Marilyn Monroe wannabes.
While on the subject of skinny women, one thing they are apparently good for is smuggling monkeys inside their blouses while pretending to be pregnant.
To summarize, hour-glass-figured women are busy smuggling monkeys, while more “cylindrically”-shaped women will make your life haven-on-Earth. The choice is yours. (*I have no idea what does monkey smuggler Gypsy Lawson looks like).
This was just a sampler of things that pop up in my Google Reader and/or mailbox.
Well now, any Church worth its salt is supposed to be able to change you from the inside out. So they ought to be BEGGING sourpusses and grouches to come through their doors. It’s a challenge, right? Besides, most of the sour pickle-type people I’ve met? I met them at Church. I’ve even seen one in the mirror from time to time.
The “over-all good time” is what gets me. There are some churches (primarily from back in the 60’s) that would give you an “over all good time” but I don’t think that’s what they’re going for here. Of if they are, they should be more explicit about it.
(And I’ve been accused of smuggling “sweater kittens” but never monkeys…)
