Bank of America SuperBowl Orgy & Festival of Wanton Greed & Entitlement Makes Taxpayers Vomit Blood and Puss and Shriek for the Skulls of Bank of America Execs.

Bank of America is one of those institutions that can only exist in a fascist dystopia ruled by savagedly fuckwitted gangsters, a bank so criminally incompetent that its very size and raging degeneracy now threatens the larger national economy.

It entered the naughts a huge, mostly West-coast bank, known for the cackling imbecility of its employees and the rapaciousness of its fee schemes that force its banking customers to pay horrific charges for services that were free 20 years ago. In short, Bank of America was the equivalent of a really stupid biker gang of a bank, dangerous if you got near it but mostly easy to avoid.

Wonderful news:

A new Rasmussen poll further demonstrates that the GOP could be in for a long stretch in the wilderness: A majority of GOP voters now say that the party should be more like Sarah Palin.

The numbers: 55% of Republicans say the party should be like Palin, compared to 24% who say they should be like John McCain.

More cowbell.  They need lots more cowbell.

Oh well … Cards could have won with a break or two, but teh Football Gods sez no.

five yards, please.

I was going for a picture of a cheerleader to put in here, and it struck me: have I ever seen a Steeler cheerleader?  Visit to the official website, Yahoo image search engine?  Nothing.

I’m sold.  On account of the lack of cheerleaders, the pick is Pittsburgh to beat the spread.  It’s a 10,000 STAR LOCK.

Liveish commentary follows.  Your contributions will be (a) inevitably better than mine, and (b) therefore welcome.

1755 (ET): One deep, trauma-inducing emotion, expressed off-hand earlier today: five-hour pregame shows which are half-filled with self-promotional free advertising for your corporate master (Universal, News Corp., Disney, Viacom) MAKES BABY JESUS CRY.  For Pete’s sake — keep it to two hours and talk about football only or GTFO.

I know you’re just dying to know what’s causing me to melt down this week, so without further ado:

1. Karaoke – it has never been a passion of mine to hear bad music sung by people with less talent than the untalented original artist. Cf. Billy Joel. But now it’s getting silly:

In August 2007, a Seattle man was assaulted onstage during a karaoke rendition of Coldplay’s “Yellow,” while last December, a San Diego man encored his karaoke set by walking toward the crowd and attacking an audience member. And in Asia, there’s been a string of karaoke-bar stabbings and shootings, including a horrific incident in Bangkok in which eight amateur singers were murdered by their neighbor, reportedly due in part to his hatred of John Denver’s “Country Roads.”

While I have never been driven to a murderous rage by a John Denver song, I can understand this man’s actions.  Someone once got out a CD and tried to show me how John Tesh wasn’t as bad as I’d made him out to be.  It was all I could do not to deck him.
