Open Thread – What are they Flushing in Fairbanks?
This sign in a Fairbanks restaurant lavatory indicates an apparent epidemic of the deliberate flushing of car keys, computer equipment, and what appears to be a power drill. (?) [h/t Mudflatter PottyHumor]
Open Thread – The Exxon Valdez Latte
I’m not sure how I feel about naming a latte after an environmental disaster, but they do deserve props for gallows humor and creativity!
Open Thread – Freedom
Why? Why do they refuse freedom?
Open Thread – Oh, Deer!
I loved this photo which was a winner of the National Wildlife Federation’s wildlife photo contest. Now they are looking for captions. Click HERE if you want to enter, and be sure to put your entry in the comments below too! With that head of hair, my entry was: “YOU’RE FIRED!”
Open Thread – Scary Apples
This video has been going a bit viral, and you may have seen it, but I’m posting anyway because, hey… It’s Thursday, and why not? This cat apparently has issues with apples, and the score is as funny as the video. Enjoy.
Open Thread – Dear Human, …

Mudflix – Whose Books Would Chicagoans Ban? (You’ll Never Guess)
OK, just to be clear, we here at The Mudflats totally heart the first amendment. It’s actually one of our favorite ones. We would never want to sound like we wanted to limit speech, or squelch the marketplace of ideas, no matter how mind-numbing, head-banging, or downright painfully idiotic those “ideas” may be. That said [...]
Open Thread – Spotted Outside City Hall
This little gem was snapped outside City Hall last Friday by Mudflatter “Woman of Mystery.” I wonder what party is getting planned? Feel free to write your own caption, or chat about the issues of the day.
Open Thread – God Hates Shrimp
To commemorate the historic vote on marriage equality in New York state, and Pride celebrations across the land, I’d like to point you to one of my very favorite satirical websites - God Hates Shrimp. What’s that all about, you ask? Well you know when people start quoting Leviticus to defend their stance against gay [...]
Open Thread – Eerie
OK, this irreverent cringe-inducing but funny satirical clip is TEN years old. All I’m saying is… imagine different hair, and a different annoying accent… and a bus. Just saying.
Twidiot History Palin Style
~Twitter’s infamous “Fail Whale” For anyone who has not checked out the Twitter hashtag #palinhistory, you’re missing out on some much needed levity. After the now viral “Paul Revere was warning the British by ringing bells and firin’ shots in the air” gaffe, some clever tweeters have been coming up with other things Sarah might [...]
Gotta Know When to Fold ‘em – Palin Baffled by East Coast Elite Customs
So what’s more distasteful to most New Yorkers than Sarah Palin visiting with Donald Trump on her tour through the Big Apple? As a former resident of the New York City area, I can tell you that this was a faux pas so egregious, so cringe-worthy, so downright embarrassing it has probably lost her [...]

Check out the fascinating exhibition which will be held on the grounds of the National Ornamental Metal Museum in Memphis, Tennesee from May 20-July 24, 2011. h/t Wickersham’s Conscience
Open Thread – Six Phases
This is a copy of a little sign my dad had hanging in his office. As they say in New Jersey, he had a great “sensayuma.”
Tina Fey Returns!
For those of you who missed the mock 2012 GOP Candidates Who Haven’t Declared Yet skit on Saturday Night Live last night, enjoy! Tina Fey is back, resplendent in red blazer, life-sized flag pin, and the admiration of… Donald Trump. Sometimes I think it would be worth it to have Palin in the race, just [...]
