This is freaking hilarious.
It seems McCain’s website resorts to bizarre, arcane filtering in its comments section. Waaaaay too many words are “poison words”:
Apparently, any word containing combinations of letters like ‘net’ or ‘org’ or ‘gov’ gets rejected. Likewise: “Just to add a couple more that trip the filter: words that contain the three letters [...]

And Cindy is Ellen.
The parallels are striking, even beyond the physical resemblance. Some minor differences are allowable under artistic license:
Tigh is old and balding and all he knows is the military
Ellen is blond, about half his age and was suspected of being a robot
Even Tigh concedes that Ellen can resemble a whore
Tigh gets flustered by [...]

I have the greasiest freaking fingers on the planet, and my black 5th Generation iPod is perpetually filthy, unless I wipe it incessantly on my pants. My new iPhone? Always looks pristine.
Two things:
1. Choose white. Trust me, it looks better in real-life than it does on the Apple Website. With the chrome side & Apple logo, [...]

I just spent 2 hrs waiting for a routine blood test. I stress waiting, because I didn’t actually get my blood drawn. I gave up when I did the math and realized I would have to spend at least another hour waiting.
My doctor has outsourced simple bloodwork to a company called LabCorp. You can’t make [...]

You know Barack’s going to take some serious heat for this. Read the video comments.
