I'd feel bad worse about the newspaper's demise if the San Diego Union-Tribune wasn't just putting out AP releases with conservative editorials.

Don't forget A&E. Intervention is the most exploitive, voyeuristic hour on television.

I'm against funding NASA. Seriously, I know all the technological advancements that it's responsible for, but as far as I'm concerned it's a giant fucking subsidy to industry for shooting phalli into space. It''s Orwellian.

When I lived in San Diego, my congressional representative was the infamous Randy "Duke" Cunningham. I believe he's still in prison.

And now I know that sugartits is between 51 and 54!

@Martian Judge: I didn't have any little green army men, but I did have a few GI Joes. And I would use their spare weapons to arm my sisters' beanie babies and stage epic cross-species battles.

Out of curiosity, does she have the watercolor parts inked too? How does it look? I was considering getting an illustration from The Witches.

My mom used to not let me have play guns, but apparently there's nothing phallic in the household that a small boy won't use as a fake gun, so she gave in and got me a grocery store cap gun. Still have it too.

U-G-L-Y YOU AIN'T GOT NO ALIBI

My vote for a yawn and a trigger-happy Ryan and Michael.

Riff: I was kidding. I thought "San Quentin prisoners get a little more protein in their diet at no expense to the taxpayer" made it clear, but apparently not.

So I have pretty much no common interests with my parents
Except that we all smoke pot, or at least I used to (I don't really buy pot anymore, I think I grew out of it). My mom's parents though, had a ton in common with me. In fact, my first memory of my German immigrant, law professor grandfather is him calling…

Until mom says "Of course, I'll show you mine!"

Don't leave off Lafcadio. I still think of that lion nearly every time I ride an elevator.

My little sister and I like some similar things, but I doubt I had anything to do with it. She's far more of a hipster douchebag (probably a neo-raver to be specific) than I'll ever be. She reads vice and likes cobra snake/cory kennedy, all of which I think are fucking ridiculous. She's also really aloof, but I'm…

My parents had a ton of stuff for me to discover, but I'd safely say >85% of it was pure crap. The last time I went home they had "My Super Ex-Girlfriend" in their netflix movies. And they think my taste is crap

My parents don't like anything I like. Then again, the 'rents watch American Idol, HGTV, and Wife Swap religiously, so I don't really hold it against them.

Aww, that's sad. My parents are stoners (still), and I know for a fact that my mom got expelled from her Catholic boarding school for spending the night in a boy's room. And yet they're STRICT disciplinarians, oddly enough.

Roald Dahl is a titan of my childhood. Probably more so than anything else except Legos.

My children will know Where the Sidewalk ends, and ESPECIALLY Lafcadio. And if they don't love it I'm getting a blood test.
