Wow, I can buy only two Windows laptops for the price of one Apple. Talk about deflation!

No, baby, really. It cures cancer.

From Huffpo:

“Look, we don’t care about an old, washed-up terrorist and his wife,” McCain said. “That’s not the point here.”

According to the polls, we don’t care about an old, washed-up politician and his wife either.

Will the L.A. branch of Hooverville have wi-fi?

So, um. The stock market is crashing by the second. I want you to know, I love you all.

McCain’s ‘maverick stance on immigration’ is still barely as agreeable as most Democrat’s policy. And McNasty is still a Republican and likes to drop bombs on brown people (As Geo. Carlin once said)… so why bother with the grumpy old pasty guy?

I want to give a shout-out to the woman wingnut from Wisconsin quoted in the Post as wondering a) why Obama keeps rising in the polls and b) thinks that votes are being stolen. You’re the reason Xanax was invented, sweets! Stay classy, you pissy nutbag.

Can I recharge my new iHobo with crushed dreams and worthless stock certificates?

As much as I love Sara;s headlines, (and I do)..I can’t stop laffing at this one..it’s a real WTF’er…

Apple is all set to introduce a Macbook lite, aimed at buyers struggling to get my in these tough times. The Macbook will boast two innovative and interesting features: (1) It will retail for $5.95 and (2) It will be the first Macbook to actually be a book, a 192 page paperback, in fact. A higher end model out due later this year will be similar in layout, but boast a hard cover.

Your new iHobo will be packaged in a brown paper bag and hold 8 oz. of grape or tangerine flavored, 80 proof corn liquor. Enjoy.

Kingbee October 10, 2008 at 9:22 am

The way things are going, Apple is going to open an Apple stand right next to my apple stand.

Yes.

I always wanted to buy Apple products, but I never fit into the “I have lots of money to waste so I’ll take two of your most expensive electronic gadgets” demographic.

ProfessorJukes October 10, 2008 at 9:24 am

Good news – oil is at a one-year low! Which means oil drums will become more available, for starting hobo fires to stand around after the bank takes your house.

Guppy06 October 10, 2008 at 9:25 am

The WaPo article has a woman pissed off about Obama’s “surge.”

Teabagging for your health.

TJBeck October 10, 2008 at 9:27 am

Damnit, the only reason I picked Wachovia is because I liked the new cool blue-green wave logos a few years ago. Not I’m gonna get stuck with ugly-ass red and yellow with a stagecoach.

I’m switching banks.

TJBeck October 10, 2008 at 9:30 am

[re=128969]Serolf Divad[/re]: Shit, I’m gonna go ahead and be first in line at the Apple Store! I mean, it’s only a block or two away and this cardboard folds up pretty easy…

dano October 10, 2008 at 9:32 am

The McCain rallies seem to be attended by brown shirted super patriots that can’t believe that the rest of the electorate wants to vote for that Negro socialist baby killing terrorist. John Sidney McCain III must be so proud of himself.

Servo October 10, 2008 at 9:32 am

I assume the Duke of Wyoming has been secretly furnishing his and King George’s underground bunkers.

I can Google a recipe for Mulligan stew, beneath the highway overpass.

cheeto_jeebus October 10, 2008 at 9:33 am

If I’m going to raise a small army of delinquent kids and go all Fagan in the new economy i better get busy. Hanging around a hospital in Nebraska should be a good place to start. I’m going to need a pair of those gloves without fingers eh?

McCain has problems with Ayers because the only bombing that’s acceptable is that from the cockpit of an F-4. Then you’re a hero. Ayers bombs killed zero. Can McCain say the same thing?

TJBeck October 10, 2008 at 9:39 am

Holy shit, I wasn’t paying attention – below 8000 already?

qwerty42 October 10, 2008 at 9:45 am

how can it possibly be the case that the public is more concerned with the financial situation and is not looking into the old terrorist stuff? i think the public is in the tank for Obama and the nuts need to call them out on it. clealy most of the country are terrorists and traitors. and mooslim.

And his wife?

Where is the love for Bernadine Dohrn who was smarter than Ayers back in the day and at least as fierce?

arf October 10, 2008 at 9:52 am

[re=129003]donner_froh[/re]: Let’s face it, McCain doesn’t care about wives. Period.

HuskyMescan October 10, 2008 at 9:53 am

Good, i’ll get my wife off that blue-screen-of-death server and get her an elitist homo artist macbook. I’m not sure Apple would sell them for less than $800 though.

Hamster October 10, 2008 at 9:57 am

Hmmm, so my nuts are now worth more than gold? New retirement plan!

A-4 Skyhawk. In any case, McCorpse’s pilot history suggests that he was at war with aircraft-grade aluminum.

Hmm.. cure my horrible disease, or repeatedly stick needles in my balls. I don’t know about this…

Just think, a little skin off my scrotum could have had Superman turning somersaults. How many more tragedy’s must occur before we start to harvest this precious natural resource?

WagTehGod October 10, 2008 at 10:25 am

So telling someone to suck my balls is actually a show of kindness. Cool.

I can’t wait for the arguments against testicular stem-cell research! Every sperm is sacred!

azw88 October 10, 2008 at 12:16 pm

Sarah Palin isn’t ginning and winking to get you to vote for her, she is trying to get you erect, so your pecker is out of the way when she comes in to whack your balls off in the name of science!

Lionel Hutz Esq. October 10, 2008 at 12:57 pm

So let me get this straight. If I get cancer, you won’t use a bunch of left over frozen embryos that are going to be thrown out anyway, but you will chop off my balls.

Makes sense.

Hopefully Apple’s computer will be made out of food and come in a refrigerator sized box. We tech savvy hobos need it. Bindle plug ins would be nice too.

Trashy to make fun of serious people because of the way they look, sorry. His daddy was chairman of the board of Commonwealth Edison, so Bill’s apostasy was particularly galling to the Electrical Potentates.

Can you get testicular stem cells from TruckNutz?
