Twitty Tumbling

So here is one of the many perils of active Tumbling: you end up sTumbling (get it?) onto things like this...

Dafuq did I just read?

So apparently, in an emergency, one should not call for the Police or the Fire Department or even the Paramedics. Naw, fuck that. That would be helpful. Instead, as your home is being invaded and a masked man is waving a working chainsaw at you, just smile as you crack open your Bible to Psalm 91. Read it out loud to your assailant and he will instantly stop what he is doing and turn himself over to the authorities and apologize for disturbing you during the season finale of Sixteen and Pregnant.

Don’t forget to carry your Bible with you so that when you get mugged and beaten and are left within an inch of your life, you can ask a passer-by to open your Holy Book and read you 1 Corinthians 13. Then, Jesus himself will descend from Heaven, hold his hand up to your forehead and cure you of all ailments, both physical and spiritual.

Actually, my bad. You’re supposed to dial these numbers on your phone, apparently… Unless, of course, your phone line has been cut by your rapist or your cell has been stolen by your mugger. Then, you’re pretty much screwed since they stopped printing Bibles in 1999, right?

What the fuck. Encouraging people to turn to the Bible instead of calling 9-1-1 is as asinine as it is dangerous.

Fox Radio Men on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton

"Ed Klein: I don’t want to sound anti-feminist here, but [Hillary Clinton is] not looking good these days. She’s looking overweight, and she’s looking very tired.
Brian Kilmeade: She’s not trying, to be honest.
Ed Klein: Yes, it does look that way."

Dear Mr. Klein,

Guess what? You do sound anti-feminist. In fact, you sound like a misogynistic blow-hard and a political commentator and author not worth his salt.




You’re looking pretty tired, yourself, there, Ed. When’s the last time you tried something different with your hair?
[…]
What’s that, you say?
It’s not relevant to your work, you say?
Your physical appearance has nothing to do with your qualifications or how well you do your job, you say?
I should concentrate on things that actually have to do with your profession, you say?
You first, asshole. Secretary Clinton is the FREAKING SECRETARY OF STATE. Not the Secretary of Perms. Not the Secretary of Lipstick. Not the Secretary of Botox. The Secretary of State. Maybe she doesn’t have time to put on make-up because she’s, oh, I don't know, flying around the world dealing with our Nation’s Foreign Affairs and running an entire government department.




How much time did you spend in the make-up chair today, Brian “Kill-media”? Yeah, I guess you have tons of time to spend on your appearance when all you do is blow hot air into a camera all day. Try reporting an actual story for once.
And Klein, you wrote an entire god-damn book about Secretary Clinton. If this is really all you’ve got to say on her political career then you don’t deserve a cent from that or any of your books.
