"Friggin' moron." - Shanna

"That's ok, I read "The Death of the Wii". Granted I only scanned it quickly as it popped up, but yeah....Monday mornings." - Shanna

"How in the hell is this a "freedom" initiative if it's "mandatory"??!" - Shanna

"I remember Much Music! It used to come on late at night (early morning hours actually) down here (I live in Louisiana). I remember watching my first Def Leppard video on Much Music; "Rock of Ages". I would later become a huge Def Leppard fan and collector, but one of my first tastes of them was through late-night Much Music. ^_^ Ah, the good old days - when musicians were actually musicians, and music was more important than celebrity." - Shanna

"Some of the shows were cool/funny. I enjoyed watching Aeon Flux late at night. The game show, Remote Control, was ok. If they had kept the shows to a minimum and made the channel focus on music, it would have been alright. But when they completely got away from music to show only television programming, well, it just became another channel - no longer a "music video" channel." - Shanna

"I want my MTV! It used to be so awesome when I was growing up. I had young, hip parents so MTV was always on in both TVs in the house (the one in the living room and the one in my parents' room where we spent a lot of time all just hanging out on their king-sized bed with Mom). Then, slowly, it became less and less about the music until it was no longer about music at all - just stupid TV shows. Then VH1 came in and it was pretty cool for awhile. It was no MTV, but at least it played *music videos*. Then MTV bought out VH1 and the music went away; insert more stupid TV shows. Then MTV2 was born; supposedly to offer the music that was lacking on the original MTV. Then, slowly but surely, it became nothing but a bunch of stupid TV shows. There is no true music video channel anymore. MTV died in the 90s." - Shanna

"Rick Warren is a self-serving, hateful cretin. If he thought he could get away with imprisoning and/or killing gays here in America, don't doubt for a second that he wouldn't do it." - Shanna

"Very well said." - Shanna

"You took the words right out of my mouth." - Shanna

"Those Tea Partiers. Just so gosh-darn classy." - Shanna

"Is she honestly stupid enough to believe that anytime media looks into her words or writes something disparaging about her, it's some kind of personal vendetta or conspiracy? She's a (failed) politician and a (15-minute) celebrity - it comes with the territory. Does she expect only glowing praise from every media outlet in the world? Seriously?" - Shanna

"The whole concept of using Christian-oriented wording on our coins, in our national motto and Pledge pretty goes against the wishes of our founding fathers, who believed in the ideal (if not the exact wording) of a separation of church and state and felt that no one religion should hold sway over the entire country. Sarah insinuating that there is some vast conspiracy to remove (or move over) the Christian-themed verbiage is just more of her fear-mongering and scare tactics. She gets attention by pulling stunts like this - or maybe she is truly delusional enough to see it as some gigantic secular conspiracy. Either way, there are bigger things this country needs to be worried about that where on the coin certain words do or do not appear." - Shanna

"Well said and concise explanation. Thank you." - Shanna

"How does that image imply that Mozilla is "against" Microsoft, exactly?" - Shanna

"Make *Use Of, that should say." - Shanna

"I love the Make Us Of site." - Shanna

"What you say is true. If a man felt compelled to file such a lawsuit, everyone would be taking his side against what must be, in their minds, a "crazy bitch". A lot of people will read all of this and their first thought is going to be "she deserved it", and "she must be crazy - I bet she *was* stalking him!" The crazy, jilted lover stalking the man who now (apparently) wants to save his marriage is a common theme. In these stories, most people are quick to cast blame on the woman and think she is the unstable one. Why is not the first thought, maybe she is telling the truth and this guy is lying - as she claims he said "to save his ass and marriage"?" - Shanna

"Well said, thank you, and dugg! I'm so broke that I'm over $100 negative in my bank account this week (until I get paid Friday) and we just had to take out a $25k loan to pay off our credit card debt, yet - still - I intend to donate. Even if all I can put forth is $5 or $10; if everyone just gives what they can, just gives something, the NetRoots can make a very big contribution to Grayson!" - Shanna

"Heh - have you seen the website? http://www.republicansforrape.org/ Gotta love it. ^_^" - Shanna

"Hear, hear!!! It's so about time! In fact, it's way *past* time this happened!" - Shanna

"Well to his mind - and from his own assertion - just because he is a justice of the peace, he does not *have* to marry anyone. He seems to feel its at his discretion who he marries and who he doesn't. He's wrong, of course, but to hear him talk, he's completely within his rights. Though, to hear him talk he is "not racist" because he has "piles and piles of black friends" who "use his bathroom" in his house - he just doesn't believe in "mixing the races that way". And yes, everything in quotes are his exact words." - Shanna

"The only people who think someone is "obnoxiously articulate" are those that are too stupid to understand what is being said. Period." - Shanna

"My gaggle of black buddies go #2 in my own potty - I'm not racist!!" - Shanna

"What is wrong with YOU? He is *not* allowed to deny marriage to people based on his own personal prejudices, just as pharmacists should not be allowed to deny birth control based on their personal religious beliefs. What he did was *wrong*. How can you not see that?" - Shanna

"I know. Though, I live in Baton Rouge, I was equally shocked and dismayed. Surprised, really, that no one has taken this idiot to task yet over this. I'm glad to see the pressure is on him. Just because he lets his black friends go #2 in his potty doesn't mean he isn't racist. What an ignorant moron." - Shanna

"As a woman who has survived rape, I find it unconscionable that you would even attempt to "play Devil's advocate" with such an issue. Women that exploit the system make it difficult for *all* who are truly brutalized sexually to be heard, healed, and helped. The sad fact is, most women making claims are *not* making it up - and most, yet, are still accused of doing so. Think before you speak and do not be one of those who is quick to judge; whose first thought is "She's making it up for revenge". It isn't fair to those who are telling the truth and have had the courage to come out against their attacker and get help." - Shanna

"Awesome article - really summed up the GOP's lunatic ravings over this very well." - Shanna

"Well said." - Shanna

"Wow, very powerful words and they ring so frighteningly true. Thank you for putting how I feel so very eloquently and succinctly!" - Shanna

So awesome to see Criss getting some recognition - she, as usual, attacks ridiculous and Christian-fueled ignorance with humor, intelligence, and sexy snark. - Shanna
