Crappy Hour with Alex Pareene, July 21, 2009
 
8:59
Pareene -  All right, let's go. I'm cruising down the BQE coming to you live on my phone. Fuck the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, I drive better when I'm distracted!
9:03
Megan -  Morning, Alex. Fair warning: getting up in pouring rain to move my car tends to make me grumpy.
9:05
Megan -  Why would you get on the BQE during rush hour? Do you like extreme frustration that much?
9:07
Pareene -  

I just love the open road and I hate anyone telling me what to do! Or suggesting what I should do, for my own safety, or researching what I should do for my own safety and then burying the results because it might upset congress and the phone industry.

9:09
Megan -  I'm not sure the BQE qualifies as "open road" as much as "traffic-clogged clusterfuck of a supposed freeway inveitably snarled by construction and too-thin traffic lanes", but I hear ya. I once got a text message when I was in the car with my parents and got a terrible side-eye from my dad when I went to grab my phone. I had to pretend I was giving it to him to use the GPS.
9:13
Pareene -  Well both of us should probably have our debilitating Twitter-related car wrecks soon, because by the August recess all of the medicine will be SOCIALIZED and instead of being treated at a hospital we'll be RATIONED to death.
9:14
Pareene -  Ahh, there's Michael Keaton.
9:16
Megan -  At least the Republicans have decided to prove Peter Orszag's weekend statements correct and admit that their efforts to "delay" health care is just code for "we're going to chase health care down with scythes and sladgehammers and attempt to kill it in a bloody, orgiastic spectacle ending in a massive circle jerk and offering of jizz to the war gods." Or, at least that's what I took away from this Washington Post article. I might have gotten some of the details wrong.
9:18
Megan -  I was sure it would look something like this, as reinterpreted by Disney (i.e., without overt jizz).
