Yikes

In the course of trying to understand the implications of the UK’s recent elections, I followed a link to a site about the British monarchy. Let’s just say that these people are not at all fans of the Windsors.

Some things should just go without saying

It’s never a good idea to tattoo a toddler, especially if that toddler isn’t even your child.

Wow, I’m really glad that, despite being in sincere pain, David Boreanaz is soldiering on through the tough times that he has experienced since it became common knowledge that he cheated on his wife (there have been rumors about his infidelity forever, but he had to come clean in order to head off an extortion attempt). A lot of guys wouldn’t be able to keep going. They might even miss the cut at Quail Hollow. But David, well, he’s a trooper. He’s not going to let the man (or woman) bring him down! This kind of internal fortitude must be why he was able to so convincingly play first a vampire, then an FBI agent, for all these years.

I had the hugest crush on him in high school, but I’m happy it died a natural death before this happened.

You should probably not sue your comedian daughter/sister-in-law for making jokes about you. If you do, your lawsuit is going to be dismissed, she’s going to make more jokes about you, and judges/complete strangers are going to join in. And what’s that? Your son/brother’s law firm is the one that defended her? The next round of holidays is going to be awkward.

Los Suns will come out tomorrow

I think it’s pretty great that the Phoenix Suns will wear jerseys that say “Los Suns” tomorrow, Cinco de Mayo, in light of the awful immigration law that just went into effect in Arizona. I still don’t care who wins that game, but at least now I will remember to look on Thursday to see who won.

If you’re in a restaurant and your 2-year-old drinks alcohol that you ordered, and was placed on your table with your party’s other drinks, it’s your fault. Not the waiter’s, not the restaurant’s. How could these people even kind of think that their reactions were reasonable? If I were that restaurant, I would have banned them for being negligent parents, crappy customers, and pretty useless in general.

I’ve just decided that May is going to be Personal Responsibility Month on this blog.
