Will you have a cocktail? There are two here.

But I have to tell you that over the course of-- several years, as I talk to friends and family and neighbors. When I think about-- members of my own staff who are incredibly committed, in monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together. When I think about-- those soldiers or airmen or marines or-- sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf-- and yet, feel constrained, even now that Don't Ask, Don't Tell is gone, because-- they're not able to-- commit themselves in a marriage.
LULZ HOW DO U NO?

They're seamen, just take the condom off.

Like a lot of narcissists, he assumes that the way he's screwing them, they couldn't possibly want any more.

Sorry said...

Well, I-- you know, my Justice Department has already-- said that it is not gonna defend-- the Defense Against Marriage Act.

Surely this Defense Against Marriage Act is something we can all get behind...

I thought the detonation of the doomsday device effectively ended the so-called monogamous relationship? Am I missing something?

You know, it never occurred to me that in addition to homonoesis, homoerosis, and heteroerosis, there might be heteronoeisis.

But judging from your appreciation of vintage soft-core heteroporn such as that stockings shot in your post here, you may in fact be a teensy bit heteronoeitic.

On another note, do you recall Thomas Wolfe's passage (I think in "Look Homeward Angel") about the feel of the plump flesh underneath the garter between the stocking and the panties?

Ooops - sorry - gotta go - ol' one-eye's starin' me straight in the face again ...

"fighting on my behalf"
what an asshole

Rob Payne said...

Obama sure has liberals pegged. He knows all they care about is symbolism and this is as symbolic as it gets.

Anonymous said...

barry the rock obomber misspoke when he said 'fighting on my behalf' he meant to say 'fighting under my command' if that's any better

Shlomo McCracken said...

Obama is an asshole, but he got one right. I'm not gonna bag on the guy for doing the right thing for once.

Eerily-
His art has been commended as being strongly vaginal, which bothers some men.

Shlomo, if all that it takes for you is for Barry to make some mild indication that, while he respects the rights of others to be openly homophobic, he himself doesn't endorse the philosophy, you might want to consider that you've set the bar too low.

Whose art? (It's an area in which I'm admittedly subpar.)

I'd like to able to commit myself to my dog (who guards my house on my behalf), but because legally I am not allowed to I think I'll beat and starve Sir PugglePuss to death.

anne said...

eerily ,for someone who feels that he is more in tune with something of the varying of gay men, of some part of your angling ..you suggest , .. . how could you not know that tops like dresses , of wearing .. and so much more .. .

A hearty LOL in the direction of Obama's endorsement of "state" rights.

Eerily Lackadaisical said...

anne - of course I know that ... I'm a devotee of Fashion Police myself (as I mentioned in a different thread.)

But it's one thing to like dress-up and entirely another to like lascivious dress-up. I am willing to stand corrected (or erected), but I was not aware that gays like lascivious (titillating) dress-up.

I don't mean "glamorous", as in a Rita Hayworth or Betty Grable pinup ... I mean stuff with a taint of sleaze, like the shot IOZ posted here ...

anne said...

of your saying "of course i know that " .. i was suggesting a lot in just those few words , as always .. not sure what part of that you are addressing back here , / .. of one of the many suggestions from my few words , i have known gay male tops that like putting on dresses ( of betty and rita loving like yourself , of your ideas around and of glamorous ,and heels (think early 70s ),heels are very male in truth , and face painting as well , ..more feminine males are more like myself as a very feminine girl born , in their preferring to be more bare footed , and not caring for make up ,

eeirly,

i've seen fashion police a couple time (my roommate luvs joan rivers), but dont you feel, after a while, that the problem with the show is the moralizing??

or, i guess, that's the problem with tv-religion.

the society of the spectacle and so on.

but, sometimes the jokes are kind of sort of funny

Eerily Lackadaisical said...

I don't take it that deep, nonny@220. I just love it for the bitchiness. Even the cue-card titles of the segments are funny.

Anonymous said...

You live a very sheltered existence, EL. Everything is wondrous and new for you. Gay dudes and the bitches that consort with them really tickle your funny bone. I bet anne's little narrative about tops had you scratching your old, wizened noggin in curious amazement.

It's funny (and revealing) you see it that way, nonny@5:06. When I watch fashion police, I see a head bitch and some gay dudes who consort with her ...

I wonder why you don't see it that way ...

Your fascination, bro, with gay men is a regular feature of most of your commentary here. Gee whiz and a hoary bit of tu quoque won't cut it. Try again.

i like this here blog but i don't understand anything you faggots say in these comments threads. i shall not return.

nonny@842pm -

if that was directed at me, then it's clear you don't understand the concept of homonoiesis as I've taken pains to explain it in various posts.

And as far as "fascination" goes, I doubt you've seen the Heinz 57 of gayness that I saw night-clerking for six months at the Hildona Court on 50th between 8th and 9th, right down from the Lord Camelot club on 8th.

Believe me, after that kind of exposure to the infinite variety of gayness, one ceases to be fascinated by the "novelty" of it all.

get the fuck out of hell's kitchen you miserable shit. you're the reason i can't afford to live where i grew up. go back to whatever cranny of new england you crawled out of. fuck!

nonny@9:23 -

I night-clerked there in 1974, so don't blame me. In addition, I spent the first three years of my life on 10th St between B and C (north border of Tompkins Square Park in Alphabet Town), which hardly qualifies me as a born-and-bred New Englander.

I will confess to living from 1975-1981 in a loft on 15th between 5th and 6th, but that was only because I was helping a dancer pay her rent. And inasmuch as Beth Israel had an orange-juice dispensary on the first floor, the neighborhood could hardly be considered upscale, at least judging by the number of walking dead you had to step over because they had nodded out waiting for the clinic to open.

One more note regarding the Hildona Court - there was a plumber Ray living there who had lived there for years and seen the place go from an upscale residential hotel with show-people as its primary clientele to a seedy place where tricks were as common as treats upstairs.

Ray told me that what pulled the plug on the neighborhood was the Mob moving to Vegas and taking the whole attendant throng with it (imagine everybody involved in the Copa, or Latin Quarter.)

He said you could hear the sucking sound loud and clear.

So ya gotta blame the mob as well as New England gentry, I'm afraid ...

anne said...

eer, you are .. misogyny , .. is the word "helping " ..some misguided miffed ..of her not letting your cock ride her ballerina thighs ... , of " helping a dancer with her rent " ..on your sharing a flat in some way for a while .. . / you take the cake for the number of comments that you have left here showing your disdain and contempt for the other .. .

Eerily Lackadaisical said...

annie annie annie - I hope you don't jump across puddles the way you jump to conclusions ... we (the dancer and I) were lovers for three of the six years ... and I loved her for reasons just the opposite to what you suppose ... she was one of those women I've mentioned in previous posts ... women I've been privileged to know because of their emotional strength and talent in equal measure ... as I've said many times before, I AM a veritable "situational misogynist", but only when it comes to women whom I suspect of adopting a feminist worldview as a means of not facing obvious inadequacies in themselves ... same when it coms to gays, come to think of it ... I can be quite the "situational homophobe" ...

Eerily Lackadaisical said...

and BTW, I left you a lovely poem over at EL's blog and am quite miffed you haven't chosen to respond ...

anne said...

i never jump to conclusions , and others have been noting your not situational misses here , your so set on your cock tailing io z , and your own pheasantry that you miss the comments likely .. / i have no way of knowing that you have left a post for me on your el .. do i ?
