Friday Friday.

My bracket's busted (thank you Hoosiers), so I'll be doing escalator helicopters all weekend. Cheers!

Shit

Don Payne, writer for the Simpsons, has died. 48 years old. Sigh......

Be The First Bastard On Mars!

I'm joking, not sure anyone here meets the criteria:

"Applicants need to be at least 18 years of age, have a deep sense of purpose, willingness to build and maintain healthy relationships, the capacity for self-reflection and ability to trust. They must be resilient, adaptable, curious, creative and resourceful."

Also you don't get to come back.
Also you have to star in a reality TV show.

Thug Kitchen

Great website. Bon appetit.

A Pilgrimage

I had the day off and decided to go find Chris Bell's grave site. Oddly moving, I must say.

Reviews You Can Use.

Johnny Rotten reviews the Katy Perry movie.  He doesn't hate it as much as you would think.  Yes, I have seen the movie.

*BARF*

The Seventies really were that bad, weren't they?

Go Zags!! and such

With decidedly mediocre years from UT and FSU, I fully expect you bastards on the Gonzaga bandwagon. At least until they get unceremoniously bounced in the second round. Someone tell Dave the Saints aren't playing, he needs to get with his Spokanoid heritage.

Above design a Poobah original, by the way. Let's hope it goes viral and as many as 5-10 people see it.

Now this is an investment I can get behind . . .

Rampant Imperial IPA

I am both repulsed and aroused.

Anybody tried this one?

The Conclave

[L-R: Radioactive Man, Rorschach, Ra's Al Ghul, Keyser Söze]

At an undisclosed location, the principals of the Bastard hierarchy ('the Conclave') met for sober intellectual discussion. So be it stated herewith:

(1)The Scrotum Initiative continues to go well.
(2) Suggested theme "A Teetotaler's Wedding" for upcoming Bastard nuptials was shot down in committee.
(3) Traveling piggyback is an effective means of conveyance and implies nothing about one's sexuality.
(4) White trash dive bar provides perfect contrast to iconic Australian noir auteur.
(5) Lurker: next pitcher is on you.

Catchy Friday

Postal Service Auditions

"I think we both hate bass, so let's just get this over with."

Any Dog Lovers In The House?

This is absolutely adorable.

I'm-a the Pope-a!

Get More: ,

Let's hope the new Pontiff brings some much-needed slapstick to the papacy.

Pope Francis I

Let the talking mule jokes begin. 

(Poobah, I hope you had $20 on Jorge's nose.) 

N-D-T! N-D-T!!

I've been watching lots of Neil deGrasse Tyson on the youtubes.

Google+ Experiment

Hey bastards, I've been playing with Google+ again for the last week or so, and they've really made some noticeable improvements over the last couple of years. I was initially thinking of it as a blog replacement, but maybe G+ could be our blog away from blog. (Quick posts or comments directed only to your Bastards circle, for example.) Just spit balling, but tell me what you think.

One obvious advantage to using it is that it's much easier to post something of interest - especially from a mobile device. Another is that only we could see it.

Thoughts?

Djesus!

Controversial SNL sketch.

Walking Dead, 1995 Style

Yes, some joker with too much time and talent made Walking Dead opening credits, 1995 style.

Ambassador The Worm Will See You Now

"There is nobody at the CIA who can tell you more personally about Kim Jong-un than Dennis Rodman, and that in itself is scary."

- Col. Steve Ganyard USMC (Ret.), Former Deputy Asst Secretary of State

Wasn't this a South Park episode?

I'd Watch This
