      The “garcons” were the transformers from The Planet of Junk who could transform into motorcycles to the tune of “Dare To Be Stupid”.

      Just got back and saw last weeks caption contest,

      I really don’t give a shit what you think Barry. You’re becoming a communist. You come in here, you’re not even mildly experienced, Barry. Stop playing with fucking Barney and Chris and pay attention to me. You come in here drinking your Change and Hope shit, you stink like populism, you’re out all night reforming, and that’s OK. But when you become a communist, that’s when I draw the line. I am still your boss. And I am telling you now. You stop hating capitalism. Do I make myself clear? Do I make myself clear, Barry? Do I make myself clear to you?

      @22 I dont know. You might want to see with the new CBA brings. If you resign with your current employer you can get more guaranteed money and a longer contract than if you sign with a competitor.

      Wow, could Rachel Dodes have made that video any more uninteresting? She is absolutely painful to listen to although I suppose she’s not very pumped about the booty pop assignment with references to old rnb songs.

      @15 late to the party but you just showed up with a shitload of more booze and so I applaud you.

      @30, 37. Wrong. If every girl had a body like N Pelosi there would be no war. Also no financial institutions, no businesses in general, no huts, no agriculture, no wheel, no controlled fire, …
