What I see...

What I hear...

Alter Echo's dub is for world-weary androids of the next century. It is a frightening dub in the galactic sense, and yet possesses in the depths of its electronic furies a calm and beauty that can only be described as the gleam you might see along the rusting shell of a space station rotating through the blue aura of earth's thinning stratosphere.

Occupy / Robots / News "It's a food product, essentially."

Posted by Dan Savage on Tue, Nov 22, 2011 at 9:33 AM

TPM:

On Monday night, O’Reilly Factor host Bill O’Reilly and Fox News host Megyn Kelly sat down to discuss what really happened at UC Davis on Friday and whether campus police acted appropriately in showering a group of sitting students with pepper spray. Their conclusion? No big deal.

“Pepper spray, that just burns your eyes, right?” O’Reilly asked Kelly.

“Right,” Kelly said. “I mean, its like a derivative of actual pepper. It’s a food product, essentially.”

Twitter explodes:

"Mustard gas: it's a hot dog condiment, essentially!"

"Stabbing: It's just acupuncture, essentially!"

"Waterboarding: It's a really high-powered shower, essentially!"

"Arranged marriage: it's just your parents being concerned about your love life, essentially."

"Forest fires: They're tree candles, essentially!"

"Beheadings: They're really close haircuts, essentially!"
