Yes, I Am An Asshole

Blame it on Allen Says.

He was reading my archives and pointed out an old entry I had filed away.

That got me looking for new derogatory material about me — and I found some.

You see, many bloggers hate capitalists like you and I. Bloggers tend to be “creative” people from California, Washington State and New York. They tend to be journalists, librarians, teachers, web designers, digital artists…

Can you see a pattern?

Can you see that all these occupational fields tend to be FILLED with liberals?

And not the “housewife with an SUV” type liberals — these monsters are the ones lined up at Starbuck’s in the morning wanting a Soy Latte’ and a whole-wheat bagel.

Think I am joking about the soy thing?

“Silk Soymilk is cholesterol-free, lactose-free, vitamin and calcium enriched. AND Silk is produced using “green tag credits” for wind generated electricity

I am ambitiously republican, but don’t understand why I should be laughing. Please help me understand, and please don’t make fun of me, because I really want to understand what you are trying to say.

Soy milk from wind generated electricity is funny? It certainly seems very bizarre to connect something strange to drink with the wind blowing, but it doesn’t seem funny like a knock knock joke or anything. Please explain the humour so I can make fun of people at starbucks and really know what I am talking about.

Thanks,
Wil

p.s.
One time I went to starbucks, (just because there was no other place to go of course), and someone ordered a vanilla soy skim latte, I thought what a stupid bitch, and it took them forever to make it. I just ordered a coffee. But it was venti or something.

Aloha Wil,

I guess you either get my sarcastic humor, or you don’t. I can’t explain *why* you should find it funny.

And it wasn’t a dig on Starbucks. It was a dig on some of the people that frequent Starbucks. After all Starbucks is just responding to it’s customer’s hot buttons.

They want wind-generated soy milk — and unbleached, whole-wheat bagels. Starbucks is filling their desire, and charging them a premium for it.

Way to go Starbucks!

Aloha,

Jason
