Very rarely do I outright declare love for another blogger. I've admitted to some crushes, some respectful tips of the cap, some hate on occasion (hate will be displayed later on). But GordonShumway of Ladies... wins a lot of love for the following reasons: her built-in ALF reference, her Steak-Umm photo, her thumbs that look like small fingers, and most importantly, her version of the muffuletta samwich (Porn joke extra special bonus!):
Today we’re going to make a variation on the muffuletta sandwich. “Muffuletta” is an Italian word that means “I hope you own a defibrillator”. It is also the title of a movie I once saw on Spectravision.
We heart the Ladies more than ever. And I want that samwich.
OK, on to jerks who aren't doing anything for our tastebuds, or our need for 80's sitcom references:
Paul Demko of the City Pages blog, whilst reading about the newest Blackface incident, noted that it seemed that a lot of them were happening on college campuses. He did a little research. How about almost 200 in the last five years? Demko also reminds us all that the biggest star in Minnesota Sunday is David Beckham.
Whilst searching for news about our beloved Twins, we stumbled on this blog, which is more invested than we are about possible off-season moves. We highly recommend getting Twins speculation from Taylors Twin's Talk.
Pacifist Viking summarizes the love for Purple Jesus. Against the Packers, I predict well under 100 yards. I predict that for one simple reason--the Packers aren't coached by Norv Turner.
Those awful men at The Big Picture are gearing up for their next "Would You Do" tournament, and they are looking for suggestions. We find this horribly offensive to women, and nominate Julie Foudy. Can we do both of those things in one sentence? Just to show how open-minded we are, we'd also throw in Eric Wynalda. He's a dirty tramp, he is.
Oh, and just for fun--there are Republicans in Minnesota, even now. And some of them think that Republican Governor Tim Pawlenty is a disgrace! A Disgrace! Why? Because he's decided to actually go to the Arctic and witness Global Warming for himself.
I gotta say, to live in Minnesota and not recognize Global Warming takes some balls. The winters, in just the past 15 years that I've been here have shifted noticeably. But apparently, Pawlenty has gone off the Gore End of the Pool of nuttiness! He must be stopped!
As they put it (and who could fight this ninja-logic?): For fools like Pawlenty who think man is single handedly killing mother Earth, I got news for you. It has been hotter, and there used to be giant glaciers covering parts North America, not to mention Pangaea, and dinosaurs.
Yep, the Ice Ages, and dinosaurs are certainly news to Pawlenty. He's never heard of any of that shit. God, that's fucking stupid. Good luck getting someone more conservative and stupid than Pawlenty elected, my friend. You hit your high water mark about 4 years ago, and you don't even know it. So sad. And hilarious! When Al fucking Franken gets elected to the Senate, I imagine these poor bastards will commit suicide. Assuming they can figure how to.
Go visit Residual Forces, and have a good laugh. You will not be allowed to comment though, because they are such pussies that they won't let anyone who isn't registered to comment. Pussies! Tough military imagery on their website, but you can't comment unless they decide you are OK. Yeah, that's real fucking tough. Again--pussies!

Suck it Vikings - suck it long, suck it hard.
Re: blackface.
I think a lot of college students who watch things like "The Aristocrats," "South Park," "Family Guy," etc., just think the overt offensiveness is funny without realizing the entire historical context that makes the offensiveness so...you know, offensive. I almost can't blame the students who don the blackface: they're just trying to make the same sort of jokes they see on network television, and they don't realize that there's a world outside of the deliberately offensive humor (or that sometimes, that deliberately offensive humor is trying to make a larger point that their own immaturity is not).
Once again, education is necessary. College age students need to know that some of their favorite comedians' offensive jokes are ABOUT offensiveness, and that others are a deliberate attempt to get a reaction (and that reaction can be negative).
