What is it with people named Williams making stupid comments?

Tea Party confusion?
So the GOP wants to cut spending because the US is in huge debt and spending way too much. Once they get those program cuts they cut taxes. Huh?
Isn’t that like having a ton of household bills, canceling cable and then working less hours?

So much junk!
It’s spring the changing of the seasons time!
The following will occur in this order:
I look around and see how much stuff I’ve accumulated.
I realize I use maybe half of it.
I make up my mind to get rid of it.
There’s too much stuff.
What’s on the internet….?
I redouble my efforts to clean and simplify.
I begin! (yea!)
So much stuff.
I post on social media...
I’ve lost 138 pounds. When I began this, I weighed 315 pounds and couldn’t walk more than 3 minutes without breaking out into a sweat and experiencing intense back pain. Today, about 18 months later, I weigh 177 pounds and can run for 40 minutes relatively comfortably. How? I’ve been asked that more times than I can count. I’m not trying to brag or complain. I just feel...

If this is what passes for competition to the iPad, then Apple will never have any trouble continuing it’s dominance.
Mail in your Xoom and 6 days later you’ll have an upgraded model? This is some sort of terrible joke. Right?

Unemployment and tax cuts
Republicans won’t extend unemployment benefits unless the extension doesn’t affect the national deficit. [via] At the same time, Republicans also want to extend Bush era tax cuts to the wealthiest of Americans, thereby adding $700 billion to the national deficit. [via] They even said they’d block any other legislation until those tax cuts were voted on. (Including the New START...

This is heartening

83% don’t believe the bible is literal
63% believe homosexuality is an acceptable life choice
Atheism outnumbers Mormonism, Judiasm, Jehova’s Witness and Muslim

tv
If Apple actually releases a new tv with App Store accessibility and Netflix, I may be able to finally rid myself of this blasted PS3 (and Blu Rays.) Yeah, 1080p is nice and all, but nothing’s delivered on it. Except Blu Ray and I don’t buy movies anymore. I only Netflix ‘em.
C’mon Apple, I’ve got money here for ya.
if all your political ads are attack ads, you obviously have no skills of note.
More Oregon Trail tomfoolery
As if the Oregon Trail movie I tweeted about earlier wasn’t great enough. McSweeney’s knocks it out of the park with this imagined monologue.
Perhaps this point alone makes it worth the entire read:
How many gold medals would Michael Phelps have won if all he cared about was making it across the pool? How many championships would Jordan have if all he’d wanted to do was...
Worthless epiphany
Listening to NPR discuss the IPv4 exhaustion I had an interesting analogy when discussing IP versus domain name:
A domain name is like saying “Bob’s House”, an IP is like saying “123 Main Street”. The domain name gives you some idea of WHAT it is. The IP gives you some idea of WHERE it is. There are other reasons too, but the sizzling bacon needs turning.

Gays, Jews Responsible for Catholic Pedophilia...
First a couple of links. (All links will open in a new window)

Bishop “Blames Jews” for criticism of Catholic church’s record of abuse
Pope removes Archbishop who defied celibacy in days, waits YEARS to remove pedophile
I don’t know where to begin so I’ll just pick a point. Homosexuality is...
