Antichoice panties atwist over cheeky BPAS advert

LOL! God, LifeSiteNews.com needs to get a damn sense of humor for Christmas, because this ad from the British Pregnancy Advisory Service is too cute.

The Mail Online calls it crude, tasteless and sleazy, and quotes an anti-choice dude who whines that "stopping implantation of the embryo is an abortion." Got that, ladies? All birth control and even abstinence is murder, since an embryo can't implant if you stop it from existing in the first place.

Last vestiges of Aquarena Springs to be demolished

I remember when Aquarena Springs was still an amusement park featuring a mermaid show, swimming pig and an aerial tram ride. My dad thought it was hilarious to get us up there and start rocking the tram. D:

I almost wish it was still there, so I could ride it once by myself. At least they've still got the glass bottom boats. Those are pretty neat.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

His empathy, let him show u it.

"I think any bishop here would consider it a privilege to die tomorrow to bring about the end of abortion," said Bishop Robert J. Hermann, administrator of the Archdiocese of St. Louis.

HA! Easy for you to say, Bishop Bob, because you know that you and your elderly, male, celibate colleagues are not the ones at risk of dying if abortion is outlawed, are you? Nope! You would leave the dying to the young girls and poor mothers of this world, as you always have.

What is wrong with these silly men, thinking abortion is any of their goddamn business? This is like if the National Organization for Women were to get together and declare that we'd gladly have our testicles removed for world peace. How many men do you think would be moved by that endorsement? "Well, if women can do without testicles, so can I! Castration, plz!"

Ridiculous. Ri-fucking-dick-ulous.
