Kinky Sex Makes World Go 'Round (DKs)

(Tiago_R_Rebeiro) Dead Kennedys "Kinky Sex Makes the World Go 'Round"

"We've Got a Bigger Problem Now"

Jello Biafra, Dead Kennedys

Once upon a time a singer named Jello Biafra had a lot of good ideas for a California punk band called the Dead Kennedys (a name indicating the decline of the USA). He made albums with them and contributed to other releases like Wargasm (1982, Pax Records, PAX 4, LP) with the American War Machine song "Kinky Sex Makes the World Go 'Round." The DKs released many great songs with many great ideas but became so popular with non-punks that punks started to criticize them for getting less funny (brilliantly sarcastic or ironic) and more serious (preachy rather than clever) as time went on. The band disbanded and reformed without Jello, who released a spoken word album, No More Cocoons, with the genius "Message From Our Sponsors."

Alcoholic? Shut up! Drinking is fine

(Oldfangled Film) The Alcoholism Film (Rod Serling, 1974)

Liquid ignorance in a bottle

In Buddhism, the fifth precept is to abstain from intoxicants like alcohol (beer and liquor), drugs, and other [12, 13] things that occasion heedlessness. Early Buddhist Texts nearly always condemn alcohol, and so do Chinese Buddhist post-canonical texts. Smoking that leads to craving is sometimes also included here.

Right action is an important start on the Path

In modern times, traditional Buddhist countries have seen revival movements to promote the basic Five Precepts the Buddha pointed out as longstanding sources of grievous suffering (karma or deeds producing unwelcome results). As for the West, these precepts play a major role in Buddhist organizations. They have also been integrated into mindfulness training programs, though many new mindfulness specialists do not support this because of the precepts' religious import. Lastly, many conflict prevention programs make use of the precepts. Five Precepts

Last Week Tonight: Mr. Pink doesn't TIP

Tipping: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

WARNING: Obscenity, profanity! Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs | Mr. Pink doesn't tip

Eww!! I would never date Steve Buscemi!

(LastWeekTonight) March 2, 2025: #23 on Trending. Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi) has a point. Back in the day, T.I.P.S. meant a gratuity or bribe "to insure prompt service." Now it's obligatory, perfunctory, and promoted by women on dates to test men and the demonstrated generosity of their suitors.

("If he ain't tipping her, ya think he's gonna treat you like the princess that you are? Think about it!") Tip on dates, get lucky? Tip really well, and she'll glue herself to you, and the restaurant will welcome you back like a loser in Las Vegas? Quentin-ji explains it so much better in this tightly written, if vulgar, scene from Reservoir Dogs (not to be confused with the glorious Reservation Dogs).

John Oliver discusses tipping, why it’s more complicated and fraught than customers might realize, how we can address some of the issues surrounding it, and whether or not he deserves 25% at the end of this story.

Pope too sick for Easter this year

Franny's sick.

In previous years, Pope and future San Francis[co] was happy to rub women's feet during Holy Week.

This year, he's not feeling so well. In fact, he's going to sit this Easter out if that's alright with the Catholic world. He's busy attending to his body.

God has not given him the health to head the world's oldest corporation in charge of making God's will known to sinners or how to pay indulgences or say Hail Marys to make up for their wicked and evil sinfulness.

Didn't know you had a fetish, Father. - It's Pontiff

One would think Satan would lay off the pontiff during this most glorious part of the liturgical calendar, but there's no rest for the wicked, proving that Pope Francis deserves the sainthood headed his way as his golden parachute when he steps down from the Vatican, Inc. (Unlimited).

• 20 Catholic beliefs that aren’t necessarily in the Bible:
• 
  1. The Papacy: The belief in the Pope as the successor of Saint Peter, the Bishop of Rome, and the leader of the global Catholic Church. is rooted in tradition and interpretations of passages like Matthew 16:18–19, but no explicit office of the Pope is detailed in the Bible.
