Seen on Watts Up With That:

An MIT linguistics professor was lecturing his class the other day. "In English," he said, "a double negative forms a positive. However, in some languages, such as Russian, a double negative remains a negative. But there isn't a single language, not one, in which a double positive can express a negative."

A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."

It's here! Well, not here here, but it's tonight! On the commie-bastard-neofascist-corporatist-rentseeking-scumsucking-Comcast-owned NBCUniversal SyFy channel (however the heck they spell it nowadays).

Yes . . . Sharknado.



More stupid than Snakes on a Plane. More unrealistic than zombie movies. It's . . .

SHARKNADO!

Tonight, 9 pm ET, Sigh-Fie (however the heck they spell it nowadays).

A movie born to be Mystery Science Theater 3000 fodder. Bring Back MST3K! Come back, Joel and the Bots, the nation needs you more now than ever!

Remembered one evening, sitting around in my sister's living room:

Great green globs of greasy, grimy gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat,
French fried parakeet;
Lukewarm vomit floating in my orange juice,
That's what we're having today!

Keep scrolling down. If you have any idea at all what the last one is, let . . . um . . . somebody know . . .

No, really. The word is quite nasty. Such that Battle Cat's mouth is frozen open in horror.
