      <![CDATA[Hmm.  Will.  Just a thought, here, but... everyone out here in Slogland cannot read your mind.  It does appear that, sometimes, there is a train of thought in that head of yours that connects things like the state of Washington to latkes.  But, since you rarely share that train of thought with us, lots of the time, <i>we have no idea what the fuck you're talking about</i>.<br />
<br />
I'm a little afraid to say this... but... maybe some more explanation every once in awhile is in order.

      <![CDATA[@34 - they're made from potatoes. We export potatoes. Eating more potato pancakes creates jobs. This allows us to buy more white elephants and brand them with logos like "p0wned by the Ds" or "Property of Barry" on them, which infuriates the Red Bushies who then travel to our state and spend money while protesting here.<br />

Which allows us to buy more potatoes.  And make them into more pancakes.

      <![CDATA[scary tyler moore, ever since I said you had facial hair you've been mad at me. Well let's not mince words any longer. I may not be a prize myself and thats due to unhealthy habits such as binge drinking, binge eating, binge cursing, binge anything really, but i presume you've been a hateful, unwomanly, hambeast your entire life and you take it out on others. I don't really get why you're going after my girlfriend for something I've done and for who I am as a person. Now I know that I'm not very nice to a lot of people on Slog but if you think you're being a better person you're sorely mistaken. Take the higher road or admit you're just a fatter, uglier, manlier version of me.

And they have deep fried bacon.
