To catch a douchebag

Thursday, June 30th, 2011

I’ve always hated To Catch A Predator, for many reasons. One is their unethical standards for getting a story. After all, once the press goes from covering the story to being the story, it’s all down hill from there. The other, and more important reason, is because those kinds of shows remind me we’re in […]

To kill a predator

Monday, June 30th, 2008

I’ve been critical of in the past – after all, when they go from reporting news to making it, it can’t be good It happened. I thought it’d go the other way. See, I thought those idiots at NBC’s To Catch A Predator would one day find themselves in a room with a nutjob who […]

A news report on the unethical standards for NBC’s To Catch A Predator. Well, when the media goes from reporting news to making news, you can expect issues.

My second text message

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

I mentioned my first text message here. Last night at the local poker tourney, I got my second (and third through eighth). It was from someone named [redacted]. She wanted to know if we could meet later. She said we met at the ambp (I dunno if that’s text messaging shorthand for something). I tried […]

I can’t take law enforcement seriously if they don’t

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

So, with great joy, I report the death of the TeeVee show Armed and Famous. Ok, Tam reported it and I linked. But still, it’s a good thing. For those not in the know, they give washed-up famous people a gun and some police training and make them cops. They then film it. It really […]

Lowest common denominator

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

Judging by all the commercials I’m seeing, Dateline’s To Catch a Predator series was popular enough to warrant it’s own TeeVee show. The premise of this show is that: 1) Some reporter type hops online and poses as an underaged girl in chat room; 2) Said reporter convinces some sick pervert to have a meetup; […]

I’m the root of all that’s evil but you can call me Cookie

Seen at Dr. Helen’s: Have you ever met a person who left you wondering, “How could someone be so twisted, so evil?” The Doc notes that the book she’s discussing suggests that some people are just born evil. And, from my personal experience, that is true. Let me catch you up. See, I’m a finance […]

Lies and the lying liars who lie about lying about them

Monday, June 20th, 2005

Or something. The Geek reports that the NRA busted the Brady campaign in a bald-faced lie. That isn’t unusual as I catch them lying all the time. However, this is lie in front of Congress: On March 15, 2004, the “Brady Campaign” testified before the House Judiciary Committee in opposition to H.R. 800–“The Protection of […]

Five Questions

Thursday, March 17th, 2005

Without understanding what it entails, I agreed to participate in a blog meme. I assume after I answer Xrlq’s five questions, I have to get five other bloggers to agree to be interviewed by me and answer 5 questions. If you want to be asked some questions, leave a comment. Xrlqy Wrlqy asks, I answer: […]

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
