Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, GN!

Hey…weed’s green -- at least the good stuff -- so that, like, um, totally fits today’s theme, maaaaaan.

Happy St Patrick’s Day!

And I see a theme developing here today--pets from Colorado!

Screw this: EPA Wants to Monitor How Long Hotel Guests Spend in the Shower:

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) wants hotels to monitor how much time its guests spend in the shower.

The agency is spending $15,000 to create a wireless system that will track how much water a hotel guest uses to get them to “modify their behavior.”

For only $10,000, I’ll be happy to design a system to modify the EPA’s behavior with pine tar pitch, feathers, baseball bats and rope…all of which are sustainable and eco-friendly.

Top o’ the mornin’ to ye, Gerbil Nation!
Good day, Fatwa and Sven!

Unlike other oppressed minorities, I’m not going to complain about cultural appropriation on this fine day, nor about the Americanization of St. Paddy’s Day and its construction as a drinking holiday in the U.S. I won’t complain about the inappropriate usage of cultural clothing, and the exploitation of groups of people and cultures for the sake of business opportunities. I’m sure you’ll hear all about such nonsense around the 5th of May.

Hai, Paddy!

Maybe people would hate teh Jooooos less if we, too, had a holiday which gave folks an excuse to get drunk; perhaps on blue Slivovitz.

Hmmmm…Holocaust Remembrance Day might be a good one. Folks would have the option of drinking to celebrate that not all of us were murdered.

Or to drown their sorrow that not all of us were murdered.

One could also design a “Kill me, I’m Jewish!” version to keep everyone happy.
