No really. Random.





(Note: If Romney (or any of the other wingnuts) gets elected, we reserve the right to turn him into glitter-y confetti. For the sake of work peace. And women. And gays. And immigrants. And... everyone else who isn't an American cis-gendered, white, fundamentalist Christian male.) (I know Romney's a Mormon. The argument still stands.)

Ah, yes. The Mittbot. Bless him. He finds it so hard to relate to real people, it's like that awkward uncle everyone has. My only consolation is that the President will destroy him in the debates.

Because I live in the south feel as if I should defend grits as not inherently evil, but I'm actually from New Jersey and I've tasted them.

I like grits, though I don't think I get any sort of claims of authenticity to them. I was born south of the Mason-Dixon line. Maybe I can squeak by on a technicality : P

There's a bit in Dollhouse where an (accidentally high) Adelle and Topher talk about brown sauce ("What's it made of? Science doesn't know!" "It's made of brown.") which is probably the American response to puzzlement over grits *grins* Couldn't find a clip of it, though. Woe.

Rick Santorum was my senator for a good chunk of my life. Meditate on that sometime when you want some nightmares.

I actually like grits, though I don't eat them often. Especially the cheesy kind. Mmm.

I'm finding Mitt to be the scariest of the current GOP contenders though-- he doesn't seem to possess a single internalized belief as far as I can tell. It's all up for grabs depending on who he's talking to at the moment. I'll take honest disagreement any time.

Now off to fix breakfast; I wonder if I have any grits? Darn you, now I'm wanting grits!

I heard this quote on the radio yesterday and laughed and laughed. Dear Mitt, if you didn't go around saying things like this that sound so awkward and insincere, then people wouldn't be able to make fun of you for saying things like this! You have only yourself to blame.

As a born and bred Southerner, I actually LIKE grits! Though butter, salt, pepper, and cheese are necessary additions. And they have to be piping hot, because when they cool down they get kind of...gluey. But good grits are pretty darn delicious!

When people who are not from the South try to sound Southern, it always makes them look stupid. Mitt is no exception.

Like Mitt Romney's ever had grits. He might as well have claimed to love chitlins and I'd believe that just as much. I really hate it when people patronize to us Southerners. We're not stupid, despite the way the media portrays us. We know when we're being pandered to.

Now I want cheese grits really bad.
