Olive Garden pulls Letterman ads over Palin's BS - so long, Olive Garden
I won't be eating there anytime soon.
Following a week of back and forth between CBS late-night comic David Letterman and Sarah Palin over a crude joke he told about the Alaska Republican governor’s daughter, the Olive Garden restaurant says it is canceling all of its scheduled ads on Letterman’s “Late Show” for the rest of the year.
In an e-mail to a Letterman critic obtained by POLITICO, a spokeswoman for the Italian restaurant chain wrote that “there will be no more Olive Garden ads scheduled for ‘The Late Show’ with David Letterman in this year's broadcast schedule,” citing the talk show host’s “inappropriate comments.”

"...the sentiment of the protest has gone beyond just Ahmadinejad, and is truly directed towards Khamenei. When Iranians yell 'Death to the dictator', as my dad put it, and as I've argued for the last week, they're not talking about Ahmadinejad."
Woman with awful "luck," nothing more.
I was lax to even use the word luck, but we'll go with it for now.
So surely you've heard about this. I mean, you cannot go to any website at all without hearing about this woman's story.
A woman died in a car crash just days after missing a doomed flight.
Yes, I remember that movie about death and that stupid ass kid and then Stiffler gets his fucking head cut off (highlight of the movie IMO -- I think it was Stiffler, wasn't it?). Oooooh, she was fated to die!
Shut. The. Fuck. Up.
No, she wasn't fated to die.
Let me explain it to you this way. The odds of dying in a car crash have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the odds of dying in a plane crash. Likewise, the odds of missing the plane that crashed and surviving are even higher. However, those events have nothing whatsoever to do with the odds of her dying in a car crash days later.
It wasn't fate. It wasn't God. It wasn't Death. It wasn't Satan. It wasn't the fucking spaghetti monster.
First, she was at the right place at the right time, then she was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Big fucking deal.
Another thing that bothers me -- when people die and it unfortunately catches on in the media and becomes a maelstrom, why is it that the believes see fit to drag that person's memory through the mud? (I'm looking at you Fox News)
If you believe in the afterlife, then you believe that the person is still sentient after death. If that's the case, don't you think you're being pretty fucking rude?
Man, you guys suck all around, don't you?
