Do You Hate Yourself? Do You Have Three Thousand Dollars?

Posted by on Mon, May 18, 2009 at 1:18 PM

Conservative newsrag the National Review hosts a sea cruise every year. This year, they're going to the Mediterranean. And three "affordable" double-occupancy state rooms just opened up for only $2,999 a person.

Two years ago, the National Review Cruise was to Alaska. A pre-VP nominee Sarah Palin made a point of hanging out with the cruisers in Alaska. I went to the pre-cruise dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House and was flabbergasted by all that I saw and heard. If you and your significant other have serious self-loathing issues and six thousand dollars to blow, I cannot recommend these people enough for entertaining vacation-mates.

As if buttfucking didn't already win you a seat on the serious self-loathing issues express...

Ruth's Chris Steak house is a terrible name. Just like Rick's Steve's car wash (or whatever it is). I actually saw a Ruth's Chris that was owned by two other people and they had their names on it too, so it was something like "Rick and Steve's Ruth's Chris steak house" WTF?

That name always pissed me off too. Kinda like "Carl's Jr."

You do know that it was originally the Chris Steak House, don't you? And then Chris died and Ruth bought it. No shit.

I think Ruth died a couple years ago too, which is why you're starting to see even weirder names.

Don't ask me about Carl's Jr., I don't know anything about them.

Sure you might hate yourself; but do you $3000 hate yourself?

Imagine being evaluated by a guy whose idea of fun is repetitive binging and barfing at the buffet.

I once talked with Dick Morris about that Alaska cruise. He said he sat and talked with Sarah for about an hour. According to Dick, she's smarter than you'd think. This conversation brought me shame twofold: 1. I didn't make a joke about sucking the scent of mukluks from an Eskimo hooker's toes. 2. I seriously considered making a joke about sucking the scent of mukluks from an Eskimo hooker's toes.

What pussies. The NR Cruise should sail through Somali waters. Otherwise, the pirates win.
