Hello, everyone! Goodbye, everyone! This week went by very quickly, I can hardly even believe it’s Friday. Not that I’m not GLAD. I love the weekend. But if there were a few extras days this week I probably wouldn’t have noticed. Anyway I wanted to mention here that everyone’s favorite book club, Bookgum, is up and running again on MOBFD. Great! You should join it! They’re reading Infinite Jest first, which you DEFINITELY own and probably haven’t finished, so why not. So do that and then have a great weekend!
After the jump, the five Highest Rated comments, as voted on by you, the Lowest Rated comment, the winner of the Argentinian Jack And Jill Poster Contest, and the Associate Editor’s Choice.

You know how straight soldiers have always been able to talk about their loved ones back home without getting fired? Well now gay soldiers can, too. Some people think that’s a bad thing, and I’m at a complete loss to understand how anyone could be so small and petty and hateful. |

| To the writer of this article, it’s funny that you want to argue the Constitutionality of this and say “how can people be for this when it’s been declared unconstitutional blah blah blah.” Kind of reminds me of Obamacare – ruled unconstitutional by multiple judges, a majority of America doesn’t even want it, yet it’s being force fed down our throats. Seems kind of hypocritical, no?
Secondly, you’re misconstruing the entire point Santorum is trying to make. We don’t need sex in the military. The military is about national defense, not about somebody being either straight or gay. Quite frankly, I don’t give a crap who wants to join the military, but sexual preference needn’t be discussed. It’s irrelevant. I don’t care if the guy next to me in the barracks is gay or straight, either way, it just doesn’t need to be known – we’re together to achieve a common goal, defending the nation, not to sit here and discuss our sexual preference. That doesn’t make me or Santorum “homophobic” in any way, which by the way, is defined as “scared of homosexuals,” so that sounds ridiculous anyway. Having this opinion makes neither of us sexual preference-ist, if you will. It’s just that it DOESN’T MATTER what kind of sexual preference you have – you’re not going to stand up in a classroom and announce, “I’m gay!” so why do it ever? It’s not typically something people just announce randomly. It doesn’t need to be known. If anything, that would be protecting homosexuals from the people in the military that are strongly against that and might do something to them as a result. Just don’t bring it up, and join the military. It doesn’t matter. He’s right – it’s a volunteer organization – so if you can’t go in without being all activist and shoving your preference down people’s throats, then don’t do it. |

[Assoc. Ed. Note: I know there were a lot of responses to this in the post comments, and that this person was pretty much the only person arguing in favor of what Rick Santorum said in the debate. So I don't want to beat an overwhelmingly opposed horse here. But it seems pretty clear that the argument was not that "we don't need sex in the military" -- though that is how Santorum attempted to portray it. The argument was to reinstate Don't Ask Don't Tell, which prohibited gay people from admitting to their sexuality, exclusively. Like R2D2, Esq. pointed out in the highest rated comments, this means heterosexuals could go on discussing their significant others at home without getting discharged while homosexuals were unable to speak about them. It's not about entering a room and proclaiming your gayness randomly. That is obvious. It's about not having to hide your life and who you are. And I won't even respond to the idea that DADT protects gay soldiers from homophobic soldiers. Give me a fucking break.]

Never stop being Winwood, man. Never stop.
i love what people said here ,I am a 28-years lady ,beautiful and mature . Now I am seeking a good man who can give me real love , my friends told me a nice place …richfriends.cc -it’s the most effective site in the world to connect with, date and marry successful, beautiful people.-Meanwhile, . It’s worthy a try. You do not have to be rich or famous.–
My growing adoration for Kelly Fridays is coupled with the fear that if she gets too good at Videogumming, Boss Videogum will have Gabe killed and Kelly will cook the meth from then on.
As much as I love Kelly Fridays (and I do, Kelly, I truly do!), I am curious about what happened to Gabe. Are we never going to see him on Fridays again?

That’s because you’re a fucking asshole.
We are going to see him on Fridays again and forever until we all die, I promise! It just happened two Fridays in a row by coincidence.
I’m afraid of this too, but what a great meet-cute topic for Aaron and Kelly! Now I’m conflicted.
This weekend, I’m going to pretend that I was in this photo and it will be the best weekend ever:
yay! happy friday everyone!
oops! wrong HA HA! boo to me for sucking at cut and paste!
Have a great weekend everyone – and remember – tomorrow is international blasphemy day. Until then:

Congrats ballers!

Oops, I mean…

I haven’t been able to stop talking about Cruise’s gums since I saw that pic. Thank you FLW. You earned this:
ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK
contact me if you’d be willing to write something about Infinite Jest for Bookgum!

Also, I have to double-check this, but -62 may put Anthony in league for a record for lowest voted! At least top five.
so all it takes is some lame tea bagger nonsense re-told in a semi serious tone? noted
Stop being modest.
You know good and gosh darn well that if you wanted to you could make a fake account and win lowest rated comment every week.
It would be all too easy…

Happy FRIDAY!!!

Would you say, “She’s pretty?”
I love how this is getting downvotes. WTF?
Gee whiz!
LET’S DANCE!
You have gone too far, fondue cheddar.
tom cruise’s teeth are asymmetrical for the same reason mine would be if i got braces! we are both missing a lateral incisor, so the rest of his teeth moved over to fill in the gap. my orthodontist showed me a picture of him and told me that at my first appointment and insinuated that i too could be a movie star if i got braces.
So Xenu had nothing to do with it?
