Yuck. That is totally unerotic. In fact it is slightly repulsive, if you ask me.

I wonder what they are listening to? Maybe they should pay attention to what they are doing and stop screwing around listening to whatever they are listening to?

Probably the local traffic report on the radio...

Not quite right. It's more like these two lesbian SHE-devils get off on listening to Air America. The only way they could get any more excited would be if Obama was being interviewed on Air America. He's the liberals' afrodesiac.

Leave it to you to propose such an orgy.

Or would you have the girls on top of Barack in a swing suspended over the two virtuous GOP'ers?

So there's this commerical here in Chicago for a car dealership.
In it some black couple talks about how lucky they were to trade in their hoopdie, their word not mine, for a $6000 2003 Chevrolet Aveo and how it feels like a dream come true to only be paying $99 per month (at 36% interest) with their bad credit for a like new car.

They too feel blessed.

No, it isn't. My iMac, although older, has:

1. A better screen.
2. A faster, better graphics card.
3. A better keyboard
4. Has a nice clean look, instead of an ugly black border around the display.

PPS: Yes. Lateralus banned me for voicing my opinion of the new iMac's 'features'.

He gave you a temp ban cause you wouldn't stop spazzing out. You had two warnings to take it easy a bit, but chose to ignore them.

Assuming those numbers are correct, the only way in which the new iMac is better is that it's (I think) 200 MHz faster. It apparently has a worse video card and a worse keyboard. The display is arguable, but I prefer matte as well.

Kung Fu Theater
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

During the 1970s and continuing into the mid 1980s, many martial arts movies appeared on North American syndicated television nationwide. A highly remembered Saturday afternoon ritual among children of the 70s and 80s, the popularity of these films convinced independent television stations to reserve a dedicated airslot for them much in the same tradition of Creature Double Feature. Many stations would promote this time slot with the interchangeable names Kung Fu Theater or Black Belt Theater. It is not known who coined these names or who began using them first, but they are universally associated with the low budget kung fu and ninja films produced by studios such as the Shaw Brothers. Other notable prolific producers include Godfrey Ho and Joseph Lai.

The term "chopsocky" emerged in reference to the many recurring cheesy or campy elements most often associated with these films. The often poor English dubbing and clumsy diction have become the subject of many a parody and many a fond nostalgic memory. The grunts and "hmmppphs" and "hm hm hmmm..." as well as the unusual pauses and voice patterns are almost trademark to kung fu movies. Commonly quoted examples of kung fu movie dialogue are variations of:

* "Hmpph...Hey you...I heard...your kung-fu...is pretty good."
* "You call that kung fu?"
* "Teacher!"
* "I'll teach you!"
* "You killed my master!"
* "Damn you!"
* "You bastard!"
* "But still..." (Uttered dozens of times per film in most dubbed Shaw Brothers movies. Example: "His kung fu is pretty good, but still, he has a weakness.")
* "I thought you were dead!" (This is perhaps one of the most famous "Bad Movie" lines and has often appeared in other genres. It might actually predate the kung fu movie craze.)
*"Your Karate school (or computer) is crap!"
*"You can't get away with such an insult. Prepare to fight!"

America should know the political orientation of government officials who might be in a position to adversely influence the future of this country. http://tinyurl.com/4vucu5

They were listening to Apples Press Event. The kissing ceased however, after the new iMac was announced, because it had "A crappier screen, graphics card, keyboard, and ugly black boarder".

I didn't know it was anyone's wife. She's pretty and I was going to say I'd hit it. But I'm glad I refrained. I would never intentionally disrespect anyone related to a poster here.
