shame on you, Martha!

"Does this picture make ME look boring?"

Well, it’s time. That point in my life where I’ve decide to cut ties with a long time “friend”, a someone who has had a profound impact on the architecture of my person. Someone I have found is NOT who I thought she was (or who I wanted her to be). No longer can I deny who/what she really is—hoity toity, contemptuous, cool (not in the GOOD way), haughty and snobbish. Indeed, this is “that time” for me & that someone is Martha Stewart.

For most of my adult life,  I have credited this monotone queen of the Hamptons with my abilities to organize, decorate, cook, bake, craft, gift wrap and the numerous other creative tendencies I possess.

I have had a subscription to MSL for as long as I can remember AND I currently have that entire archive in my garage in a vintage Steelcase shelving unit, along with the index which tells me where to find specific topics like “4th of July (decorations)” or “party lighting”. This index is an alphabetical account of which issue, by month & year, you will find the desired article.

BUT I am ridding myself of these memories . Yep, ridding myself of them once & for all. And, since it’s firepit season, I’ll likely use them for kindling. I will also be removing the link to her site from my site’s  category “places we ♥” —because Martha,  I no longer ♥ you!

Why such the harsh response to Martha? She may be savvy at many things but  apparently knowing when to keep her yap from yapping is not one (of them). She recently spout off rudely about Sarah Palin citing her as BORING , stating “she scares me” and that she is (ooooooooh, ready for this?) DANGEROUS.

Now Martha doesn’t scare me & unless she plans on jabbing a knitting needle in my temple after reading this, she’s not dangerous—–but BORING?

BORING ? !

THAT adjective is something that Martha has cornered the market on. She owns “BORING” lock, stock & barrel. Ms. Monotone is PAINFULLY BORING. So much so that I find her extremely difficult to listen to without cringing and wincing. And since the big giant government that is currently in control is planning on implementing a new “BoTax” on my forehead treatments, I choose not to intentionally put myself through anything that knowingly makes me wince or cringe.

For the record I’d like to make this clear: I am NOT saying any of this because Sarah Palin is my candidate of choice for the big run in 2012 . I say this because of the simple fact that Palin seems like a GENUINELY NICE PERSON. A stand up woman that just happens to be a beauty and I see absolutely NO REASON for someone like Martha to bag on her for any reason.

REMAIN APOLITICAL and keep your trap zipped.

Even if someone specifically asks your opinion on Palin, decline to answer, or give something vanilla but don’t be hateful.

Don’t make it so glaringly obvious that you are quickly becoming a tired old woman that will one day in the future have to turn over her golden glue gun and glitter jars to a younger, hotter version of a female.

(Maybe, JUST MAYBE, Martha doesn’t like Palin because of “that one interview”.  While in Alaska, Greta Van Susteren’s camera crew showed Plain fixing lunch, getting ready to toss ordinary hot dogs, stuffed with cheese under the broiler. For Heaven’s sake! The audacity of intentionally eating such MEDIOCRE food…could it be she (Palin) has something in common with Rachael Ray? Something Martha just doesn’t get? )

Addendum

Turns out it’s not just babies. It looks like it’s just an all around legitimate way to make some extra cash. My bad.

murdering people in order to sell their body fat for profit seems reasonable to me

Unbelievably disturbing

Well, there are people that won’t allow a cosmetic or cream to be tested on an animal, but this company, and I imagine many others, are using aborted babies to make their skin creams.

Aborted babies used for skin cream

I can already hear the arguments: the ‘fetus’ was going to die anyway why not use it for something productive. ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME!

Congratulations Neocutis, for not being shy about what your product truly is. Here they explain In their own words what a morally sound company they have developed.

I’m about to puke……….. right after I cry.

I’m just going to go out on a limb here, even though my president told me not to jump to any conclusions until we have all the facts, (just like he did with the cop and his friend professor Gates), and say that Major Nidal Malik Hasan, who shot up and killed our troops in AMERICA, was perhaps not united with Americans.

I have a sneaking suspicion that this man related much more to muslim terrorist organizations than he did to his fellow army brothers, and that there was NO WAY he could have gone over and fought against “his own”.  How could you?  How could anyone?  You couldn’t.

And the fact that Mr. Obama could condemn the act, but cannot condemn this man, regardless of any facts that come out, is appalling to me.  HE MURDERED OUR TROOPS SIR!  Are you  kidding me?  This proves even more to me that this president really does side more with evil than with good.  If ever there was a time to stand up and cry out against an individual, this would be it….but no, he’s going to wait for the “evidence.”

How very “socially just” of you.

should’ve been a rocket scientist.

Oh REALLY,  Mr. Obama?  You’re just figuring this out?  WELL, as I’ve said before, you can’t teach common sense, not even in a smarty-pants school like Harvard.

OF COURSE parents shouldn’t rely solely on teachers to give their children what they need to excel or even “just make it” in life.  This is such a “no brainer”.

But you are sooooo smart.  Such a GREAT orator.  Such a super-duper guy that I am dumb-founded that you are JUST NOW figuring this out.

I’m, of course, referring to the last line of this article and Obama’s “teachable moment”.

And to think that when I clicked on the headline on Drudge, (”PRIVACY? Obama decides to go off TelePrompTer, use daughter's grades as teachable moment... ") I thought he was GIVING UP his TOTUS.

No luck on that.

History

Remember when Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize?

That was hilarious.
