Did someone say double-standard?

Apparently it's not OK for a Republican Pastor of the Christian faith to campaign toward Christians (even when it's a paranoid delusion based on a bookshelf), but it's fine for a Democrat, blatantly. CHANGE CHANGE CHANGE

Kindly stop looking down your nose at republicans. You do it too.

This is a website that takes pictures of dads with their babies, and uses the magic of photoshop to switch their heads.

The results are both strange and horrifying. Check it out.

As the codeine cough syrup slowly weaves its magic spell over my diseased respiratory tract and tired cerebrum, I thought I'd end the debate once and for all over why Americans are hated by Europeans and the rest of the world. It is because of this:


Yes, it is real.

Now I enjoy bacon just as much as your average human carnivore not beholden to religious dietary restrictions, but do I REALLY need to explain why this saddens, irritates, and appalls me all at the same time? Does nothing in the world disgust you more than seeing wretched, decadent, and plain idiotic American excess like strips of fatty swine flesh turned into a gourmet item/book of the month club? And look, they even throw in a tacky t-shirt AND pig nose! After I stumbled across this club even I felt like burning an American flag.

In the dying days of the Roman Empire there were still plenty of wines to drink, slaves to be bought and sold, and orgies to attend. They (the patricians) still lived large while the so-called "barbarians" were shitting in the woods and sharpening their axes, just waiting for the right moment. However the Romans at least left us the Coliseum and some aqueducts that still function to this day. I just hope the tombstone for the American Empire isn't made from congealed bacon grease.

ok-at least the damn top comment on each page-the refresh, the algo used is whacked, like reading the same newspaper's front page every week......leave the damn thing out, eh?

I can't submit the video since the embed isn't compatible for videosift, but this video is worth checking out..

I guess sitting at a desk all day would make me want to hit someone with a rolled up Martha Stewart magazine too.

Seriously though, check out some of those weapons! Toilet seats? Dust busters??

If you are like me then you too have a innate distaste or penchant for maliciousness towards this smarmy little chain of peptides.

Come join in the fountain of vitriol that is gathering around to roast the putrid primordial soup we call Doc_M.

*For those of you who don't know he is getting his PhD in biology... way to go tax dollars.

Never has the *viral tag been more appropriate.

I've got it set to list by newest queue date, and things are kind of funky. For one thing, I just submitted a couple of videos which should be on the first page but aren't (they're actually showing up on the fifth page, along with a few other videos which are only a few hours old). Things seem to in order for a few videos at a time, then suddenly there'll be newer videos, then older ones again. It's screwy. And I have evidence! I'm not completely crazy:
... more inside ...

I've come across a few videos which have an abnormally high volume lately, and it got me contemplating if it was worthwhile to have a *loud tag to serve a similar purpose as *nsfw. Just to give you the heads up before you hit play that you might want to turn down the speakers a touch. Also handy for those videos that have a sudden loud moment.

Just throwing this out there to see what others think.

Well, It made me think : WTF when I saw this:

I survey taken - asked Parents to identify what was the worst thing for kids to see...

And apparantly full sex and 2 men kissing are FAR worse than you child seeing a severed head.

Go figure.

What does everyone else thing? I guess this is what happens when puritans grow up - Sex is EVIL!! Severed Heads are so bad...

Sorry but what... (this is a US survey btw afaik)
The results here in Europe wold be...different

I hit the hot button today, to see what i've missed during the week, and EVERYTHING, I mean *EVERYTHING* is music from my youth that I absolutely HATED when it was new. I'm FIFTY, for christ's freaking sake! What happened? I feel like I'm being hunted across the moors by hounds or something! Someday someone is going to find you people and play Britney Spears and Celine Dion at you until you crack!

Then i look at the Top Sifts, and the highest vote is in the thirties. My sift has been perverted!

I BLAME THE CHEESE!

I seem to be missing a sifted video. The problem is I can't figure out which one it is or where it went. Sometime in the last hour or so, one of my sifted vids went away, but it doesn't show up in either my discard pile or dead vids list. And I haven't received any email about a video being discarded or declared dead. I even checked siftbot's comments to see if if the bot knew what happened to it.

If someone discarded a dupe or something, that's fine, but let me know so I can stop wondering if I've lost more of my mind.

Unless you have a penchant for, or strong tolerance of schmaltzy 70's music, stay away from the submissions of any member wearing cheese until further notice.

Thank You.

...and even bookmarked a video - MINE.

I just noticed it a few minutes ago. This is only the third video Siftbot has ever voted for, and it's the very first one it has bookmarked. I guess I should be honored that my video is the only one to date that Siftbot has deemed worthy of bookmarking, but actually I find it a little weird. And by "a little weird", I mean "creepier than shit".

Do I need to worry, or does Siftbot simply have a crush on that little robot?

How's this for fishy?

I don't want to wrongly accuse anyone of anything, so that's why I simply called *discuss. But the fact that he simply *discarded the post immediately after is what's really fishy.
