As if it wasn’t completely apparent from my plethora of rants on this website (read: the only four entries I wrote for the months of April and May combined), my spring semester of graduate school was about as much fun as shaking hands with Rush Limbaugh.

While for some this weekend, the memorable quote of the Las Vegas blogger weekend was hater tots are good with mustard, my favorite moment involved one of my favorite bloggers saying “Thank you, thanks, thanks, thanks, thank you, pussy thank you!” and then almost falling over on the sidewalk as we were laughing too hard [...]
