Because it is still possible to laugh amidst the wreck health care and spectacle of GOP children, who, unchecked by grown-ups, vandalize the home we call America…

…that laughter this morning induced by this and this.

I could not resist typing the words “Sarah Palin” into both the Tiger Woods Mistress Generator and the Jersey Shore nickname generator.

The results?

From Tiger’s computer-modelled psyche:

Congrats, your Tiger Woods mistress is Candy Chin from Flagstaff, AZ. She is a 27 year old wedding photographer. You know she’s telling the truth because she has pictures to prove it.

And from Jersey:

Your Jersey Shore nickname is: S-Cat

(The code generates different results with each iteration, so, of course, YMMV.)…

Dumb, I know.  Pointless.  Trading in vile stereotypes and all that.

But sweet FSM I’ve been needing something to break the gloom, and this has, for the nonce.
