Whenever I watch TV, I learn a new stereotype. Did you know lesbians are all forgetful?

SULLIVAN: Two things. One, it’s important to clear up that he did not say “The Jews are going to get you” in some conspiratorial, classic anti-Semitic fashion. I think that’s just –

HITCHENS: He thinks only Jews are going to object to Farrakhan and Gadhafi. Excuse me?

SULLIVAN: No, he didn’t say “only.”

HITCHENS: No, but –

SULLIVAN: Again, you keep playing with that quote. We’re happy to have it on the record. And now you’ve made me forget my second point, which is –

HITCHENS: Oh, well, don’t be such a lesbian. Get on with it.



That Christopher Hitchens is just an endless font of useless information.

1. "That Christopher Hitchens is just an endless font of" crap

2. Wow. I thought it was because I was getting older

I thought that's why my memory sometimes fails me. But I guess maybe I'm a lesbian as well. Learn something new all the time.

14. I just found out I'm a lesbian, too.

An old cowboy went to a bar and ordered a drink.

As he sat sipping his whisky,a young lady sat down next to him.
She turned to the cowboy and asked "Are you a real cowboy?"

He replied, "Well, I've spent my whole life on the ranch, herding horses,
mending fences, branding cattle, so I guess I am."

The girl said, "I'm a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about women.
As soon as I get up in the morning I think about women.
When I shower I think about women.
As I watch TV, or even eat, I think about women.
Everything seems to make me think about women."

The two sat sipping whisky in thoughtful silence.

A short time later a man sat down on the other side of the old cowboy and asked,
"Are you a real cowboy?"

The old guy thought very carefully and then replied,
"I always thought I was, but I just found out I'm a lesbian."

3. I'm certain that if we put our DU minds to it, we can come up with a fitting stereotype

for busybody, know-it-all, affected British journalists.

I'll start: Utterly useless (on the other hand, I'm sorry I missed those two together, that might be quite funny!)

6. how about 'drink-sodden ex-Trotskyist popinjay' /nt

[blondeatlast]

9. Oooh, I like it, I like it! nt

[Love Bug]

11. How about 'Self-righteous, bloody git"?

[blondeatlast]

12. See how easy this is?

:rofl:

15. You missed nothing. Here's how to tell the difference between the two of t hem

Hitchens does and says nothing other than acting droll and pretending that it's wit.

Sullivan acts slightly less droll and makes the occasional interesting point. Whereupon Hitch calls him a lesbian.

Hitch is basically Sullivan minus the intelligence, looks, and coherence.

4. Rhyming slang?

Lesbian - thespian? As in stop playing up the drama of our disagreement, blaming me for you forgetting your line; just get on with whatever you've left to say.

[Beaverhausen]

5. Andrew Sullivan? Was Hitchens making a slap at him

for being gay?

[KamaAina]

7. Andrew Sullivan's a lesbian?

HITCHENS: (hic)

[mitchum]

8. Hitchens is an ass, but I am really enjoying his god Is Not Good

[LeftyMom]

16. The Complete Atheist is a fine book as well.

I've only read a few essays out of it so far, but they've all impressed me a great deal.

[Bucky]

17. I tried a few pages of his book and threw it back up.

He even manages to make a thoughtful critique of religion tiresome. If Hitch doesn't believe in God, how can he still manage to be so godawful trite?

[stellanoir]

10. Could that explain why I forgot that I was a lesbian. . .?

Sheesh

Life can be confusing.

[blondeatlast]

13. That's it! I just remembered that I am too! Mr. B@L is returning from Europe

on business today, maybe I'll wait until tomorrow to tell him.

Wait--tell him WHAT now? I forget... :rofl:
