Narsty

I don't know what exactly is going on with her pit situation.  She needs to shave and find a deodorant that doesn't leave white streaks.  Get yourself learnt, bitch.

Ooooh She Shady

Here's Tim Gunn feeling the cunt.

Today's Lesson

My tranny hooker boots!  My God!  I can't move my tranny hooker boots!
I am so embarrassed.  Somehow I never knew the true origin of the word "tranny."  It's a diminutive of transvestite, not transsexual.   Transvestism generally only implies crossdressing.  Transsexualism is simply when someone identifies with a gender other than his biological sex.  Maybe I did know this, but I've forgotten.  I'm having memories from a book that referred to transgendered people (fucking hell, don't even get me started on transgendered vs. transsexual; my fragile mind can't handle that right now) going through the transition as "transies."  That's a little advanced, and it just doesn't soothe my ears like TRANNY. 

What started this was GLAAD throwing a fit over a kid saying tranny in an episode of Glee.  The kids were to put on The Rocky Horror Show, and Mike Chang backed out of playing the "sweet transvestite" Frank 'N' Furter because his parents didn't want him "dressing up like a tranny."  GLAAD's Matt Kane commented that "unfortunately the larger problem here is that the word “tra**y” has become an easy punch line in popular culture, and many still don’t realize that using the term is hurtful, dehumanizing and associated with violence, hatred and derision."  First of all, if you're going to play grown up, use the real word.  If it is so polarizing, don't give it power by fearing to even write it.  "Tranny" is not Voldemort.  Secondly, I strongly believe that epithets can be used to highlight ignorance.  Okay, Mike Chang's parents don't want him to dress like a tranny.  Ha ha ha.  But what is that really saying?  It's showing that his parents are so closed-minded that to them, even playing the part of a tranny is unacceptable.  I don't really see anything wrong with referring to people as trannies.  If a female friend is wearing terrible makeup and a bad outfit, yes, I will tell her she looks like a tranny.  In an old episode of Glee, Finn says "fag" to Kurt, and it was a very powerful use of the word which emphasized Finn's own issues and insecurities.  Invectives can serve a higher purpose than just making us laugh.

This Is Cute

I think I randomly found this from someone's Twitter page.  I like eery and slightly disturbing stuff like this:
His Face All Red

Tranny McGuyver

Enough said.
