Restoring Perky Tautness

Posted on January 6, 2009 by myiq2xu

Riverdaughter had me worried earlier with this:

 ”Your tits will sag, your scrotums will lose their perky tautness and young, stupid adolescent males will make fun of you . . . “

The thought of Wonktard trolls making fun of my testicles had me all stressed out, until Bostonboomer told me about a solution:

Now all I have to do is figure out how to make my tits perky again.

    Never go without a bra — even when you slip — they’ll perk right back up.

    bb

    If only we were erudite like they were, we’d understand what they meant. Methinks, some of them have fried too many brain cells at frat parties.

    Catarina,

    I’m glad to see you aren’t getting moderated anymore.

  19. DisenfranchisedVoter, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:21 pm Said:

    MarieCeleste: Your comment made me go to Wonkette for the second time in 24 hours after not going to that site since the 2004 presidential election. That youtube they have up of jenniforhillary is awful. This is their idea of what all of us look like and besides that they are making fun of her weight. I seriously thought Wonkette was above fat jokes until I read their comments last night. Is this what “liberals” find funny these days? Making fun of overweight women?

  20. bostonboomer, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:22 pm Said:

    CWaltz,

    I fried a lot of brain cells in my day, but if you keep exercising your brain it repairs the damage. These trolls don’t appear to have ever exercised their brain at all.

  21. bostonboomer, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:23 pm Said:

    DV: Simple answer, yes that’s what they find funny. But they’re not liberals.

    What do you expect from a bunch of men who have killed their brain cells at frat parties and have had so much female rejection that they are reduced to copping a feel from cardboard cutout types? I’ve seen this type of guy over and over. Manly consists of putting down women you wouldn’t have a chance with.

    What I see here is generational conflict. The older people don’t understand the memes or the humor of the younger and the younger resent the attitudes of the older. It looks like the PUMA crowd has been more-maligned than they realize by Obama’s Hope-Zombies. It’s easy to hunker down behind your yard-signs and claim to have the one true faith…er….political ideals. It’s harder to take an honest look at what you say and represent. Wonkette is an exercise in post-post-modernity. I recommend you read The Elegance of the Hedgehog and then levy your judgments.

    Good question, MyIQ.

  31. Pat Johnson, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:30 pm Said:

    You can’t. Not when you make fun of handicapped babies and women with whom you disagree. That blog sounds like a daily run in a high school cafeteria. “Let’s see how many kids we can make fun of and make cry while we sit here all so superior. Hee hee hee!” This is what passes for “humor” these days.

    We hated them then, we hate them now.

  34. CWaltz, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:35 pm Said:

    Ben

    Which generation do you think Confluence represents? As far as I’m concerned this is a manners gap.

  35. Pat Johnson, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:35 pm Said:

    Ben Smith: Sorry to disagree. When civility disappears from the discourse then anarchy soon follows. Treating one another as equals, rather than pointing out generational differences which only offers them a free pass to declare war on anything and everybody, is sloppy.

    These people sound like those who have failed to understand how to even say “please” and “thank you” when appropriate. If that is considered okay due to generational differences, I want no part of it.

    I think most of us here would be further appalled to discover one of our own children behaving in this regard. Generational differences? Hell no. Bad manners.

  36. CWaltz, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:36 pm Said:

    Heh

    It’s funny to make fun of people for their political values. Don’t you old folks get that!

    You have GOT to be kidding.

  37. DisenfranchisedVoter, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:36 pm Said:

    BenSmith, you’re assuming that all of us here are old. I am young and I don’t find any humor in making fun of women who are overweight, poor, or uneducated. Or assuming that because someone doesn’t share your same political views that they must be uneducated women. Or using misogyny to attack women as in these comments:

    Is confluence codespeak for menstruation?

    the site was originally called an_army_of_stale_vaginas_fused_shut_over_40-50_inactive_and_bitter_years.com but the name was too long.

  48. DYB, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:42 pm Said:

    It’s interesting that “Ben Smith” places the burden of understanding on the old women of Confluence. (I’m a 31 year old male. Obviously nothing Ben says applies to me.) Why should PUMAs be more understanding of Obamabots? Why isn’t Ben Smith asking Obamabots to open their minds just a little?

  49. Pat Johnson, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:42 pm Said:

    Pelosi was just voted in again as Speaker of the House. Wonder if her ballot box was as stuffed with “votes” as those over at Wonkette.

    BenSmith – We let our work speak for us. Perhaps you should read some of it, then decide whether or not we are just “old folks” who don’t get the humor of the younguns.

    By the way, I am 41, and am one of the frontpagers on this site. I am six years younger than Barack Obama.

    Make of that what you will.

  52. Pat Johnson, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:44 pm Said:

    Why isn’t Ben Smith advising the Wonkettes to grow up and learn some manners? If memory serves, they came after us not the other way around. Last night we served as their “playground”. What is wrong with this picture?

  56. Alice Rodham Puma, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:45 pm Said:

    It does seem unlikely that Ben Smith would be interested in this issue, but in any case it needs to be said that not all PUMAs are older women, it is a misinformation from the other side. I am fairly young and still find those comments to be vile and immature.

  57. StaunchWoman, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:45 pm Said:

    I suppose we can’t really blame the boy-children at Wonkette — after all, they grew up on the quick one-line putdown of sit-coms, have extremely limited attention spans, and are possessed of a need for constant (electronic) stimulation. They consider themselves “ironic” and ’satirical” but are unable to define either word. What passes for wit among them sounds, for the most part, like the grunts of a pre-verbal creature.
    They are products of their environment — they are the perfect shills and zombies created by a corporatist-controlled consumer society. They have cut their teeth on the belief that “to own” is “to be”.
    They are the targeted demographic of a puppet president like Obama.

  58. afrocity, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:45 pm Said:

    I am 38, and as you can see from my Avatar stunning :-)

  59. katiebird, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:46 pm Said:

    “Ben” has the luxury of not having to see the crap that lands (or gets sent to) the SPAM filter. If it was actually funny it might be worth letting it pass. But, it’s not up to our standards at all.

    Poor “Ben” passing judgement on things he doesn’t know anything about. I hope he’s not the real thing.

  60. Jonah Golberg, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:46 pm Said:

    I’d have to disagree with you to Ben. The people at wonkette are used like pawns by Ken Layne and his subordinates to work up hits. Tthat site is a blight on intelligent discourse, no matter what side of the sociopolitical divide you may find yourself on.
    That said, as hard as it may be for you all to believe, I will be voting for you everyday because it would appear that you are the last best hope of taking some noteriety away from these serfs that call themselves intelligent liberals.

  61. DYB, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:47 pm Said:

    The truth is the posters at Wonkette, just like the posters at DKos, HuffPo, NYTimes, etc. etc. etc., will continue to make excuses for Barky as long as the leaders of those sites do. Frankly, these posters have no minds of their own – they are sheep, followers. The moment Markos, or Arianna, or Frank Rich see the light (I feel like I’m writing science fiction) and say “Wow, I’m disappointed in Obama,” the commenters will follow with “Yes, you’re right, I’m so disappointed as well.” It’s the nature of sheep.

  62. Pat Johnson, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:47 pm Said:

    Young, old, in between, what difference does it make? Some of those comments border on the obscene and to have someone waltz in here and suggest we look at them from a different perspective defies incredulity.

  63. DisenfranchisedVoter, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:47 pm Said:

    madamab, In Ben Smith’s world if a man is over 40 and uses misogyny to win, he’s cool. If a woman is over 40 she’s a dried up, bitter, old hag.

  68. BenSmith, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:50 pm Said:

    Pat Johnson: I appreciate the civility of your riposte. We must remember that people see what they want to when entering an unknown community. Wonkette and The Confluence both have their own spheres, their own inside jokes and ritualistic customs. Certain things are tolerated and some are not. If you realize that what you are seeing is not merely the scrawled tabletop of some forgotten school-yard but the culture of a self-selecting community, you may be more forgiving of the outliers.

    By the same token, they cannot jump to your comments section and then assume that your community is built on mistrust and conspiracy because they do not share your essential apriori.

  69. CWaltz, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:51 pm Said:

    Well I’m not over 40. Not yet. Where does that leave me?

  70. Pat Johnson, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:51 pm Said:

    madamab: From where I sit you could handle it very well. Let me point out that they are still paying big bucks to the likes of MoDo and Collins to do exactly what you are capable of producing only not as amusing or insightful.

    If what we have been subjected to by that site and others as well, then I fear for the road this country is traveling. Blind obedience and the obscene putdowns of those who do not share their narrow points of view remind me a lot of the Germans who did the same during the 30’s. By the time they opened their lying eyes it was much too late.

    After all if Wonkette was an exercise in post-post-modernity maybe I was missing out.

    Of course it wasn’t there. There were only a couple of silly pix of poor working class women, who had the temerity to come out and get involved in politics this year. And who were being derided in a thoroughly agro-regressive way by the post post modern throng.

    Ben Smith: Perhaps if you and I played a little bit of role reversal you may see it a little differently. I have no idea if you are the same Ben Smith from Politico but if so, then engaging in this meaningless discourse offered by Wonkette only drags the system further into calamity.

    If you are not, then please do not attempt to sell us on overlooking the “hijinks” of these posters who have sullied and demeaned a site that does them no harm.

    While we decry the absolute failure of the MSM we also recognize that much of their audience is made up of those who submit postings along the lines of what we are discussing. A sad commentary don’t you agree?

    The problem is that they are not outliers. We do not tolerate r*cism and sexism in our community. Wonkette is perfectly capable of removing such comments if they offend the blog administrator. Clearly, they do not.

  83. CWaltz, on January 6th, 2009 at 2:57 pm Said:

    I have no problem with outliers. I am a gregarious person by nature. I do have problems with people who are so filled with their own self importance that they forget manners or civility.

    I guess the question should be: how did the Confluence end up in the same category as Wonkette? We are talking poles apart by a longshot here. If there is a correlation I fail to see it. Maybe it is us who should be up in arms. That site, if we take Ben’s word for it, is actually a juvenile playground for mean little minds. I don’t see where we fit into that tree.

    We have no target demographic.

    We have a 19 year old independent, conservatives like myself, GLBT, clowns, lawyers, curators, activists,opera singers.

    okasha: There seems to be an equal number of female posters contributing over there so one cannot in good conscience place this all on the male psyche alone. Many of those women posters are using similar scatology to put us down.

    Pat, how can women take pleasure in reading a blog that is filled with such mysogynistic commenters?

  100. CWaltz, on January 6th, 2009 at 3:07 pm Said:

    Disenfranchised,

    I’ve played the boyz game before. Women who are strong and capable on their own are
    b-tches. Also if we reject them because of their own personal failings it can’t be because of their failings it has to be because we are lesbians or frigid or fill in your favorite slur(not that i consider lesbian a slur but it isn’t my particular sexual identity and has never been a reason I turned a man down).

  103. Pat Johnson, on January 6th, 2009 at 3:10 pm Said:

    Mawm: Why do women allow themselves to be exploited by men in any industry? Many women stay with abusers because they cannot see themselves without a man under any circumstances. It is a societal problem. Some women actually believe that it is better to have a man than none at all. Patterning female behavior after the worst of the male makes some feel as if they have reached “equality”.

  104. madamab, on January 6th, 2009 at 3:10 pm Said:

    TRK, Angie – I cheated in the perkiness department. Let’s just say my genes were overgenerous to me in that area, and I had it taken care of. Bra or no bra, Botox is not necessary!

    We even boast a clown who is also a lawyer. Don’t forget we have some doctors in here as well.

    But does any of that matter? We respect each other and we respect this site. We do not allow gossip, slurs or lies. No matter how we feel about Obama, certain malicious rumors were not allowed. We try to stay focused and on topic. Our posts are informative and insightful. Sure, we occasionally have a strange or weird post, but it is to reduce the stress this season has caused. We would never allow the antics we have seen at some sites here.

    Exactly. Before the ‘obots infested and took over the “liberal” blogs, all of my previously bookmarked lefty blogs were similar to “The Confluence” in content and comments. Site like Wonkette were more a target of derision than emulation. Ana Marie Cox seemed to be more interested in Gin and Anal sex than politics. To paraphrase an earlier comment by myiq2xu, something is really f*cked up when today’s “liberal” blogs read like the worst wing-nut sites of the Bush era.

    They may want to hold onto those copies of “He’s Just Not That Into You” as this surely will apply to Obama whenever an issue comes up that he can waffle on once again. Poor Obots. And they thought he was the Second Coming and Elvis all rolled into one.
