I've always had a thing for defiance. When I was little my older cousin had one of those tacky velvet posters of an eagle swooping down on a mouse, and the scowling mouse held high a raised middle finger. I thought it was the coolest of all cool things. That attitude persists in me. I genuinely get chills just at the thought of stuff like:
- Siege of Bastogne: "NUTS!"
- Admiral Farrugut: "Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!"
- King Leonidas: "Molon Labe!"
- Taffy 3 at the Battle of Leyte Gulf
- Charge of the Light Brigade
I know I'm forgetting some whoppers, but you get the drift. Today Allahpundit at Hot Air put up two back-to-back posts that are so crazy awesome they just may make this list. First up, ya got Greg Gutfield putting in a
gay muzzie bar right next to the utterly disgusting Ground Zero Mosque. I'm not into homosexuality, mooselimbs or drinking alcohol. Combine the three and you have just about the last place on earth I'd want to visit. But right there adjacent to the
GZM? Dang! Might have to dress up like Jamie Farr in Cannonball Run II and prance around with a Zima.
Spit in your eye... I will defy... and accessorize!
The other is a JetBlue flight attendant who
just lost it in the middle of having a really bad day. Grab the PA. Cuss out your boss and customers. Jack a couple beers off the serving cart. Pop the emergency slide. Glide down to the ground and write your name in the Chronicles of Awesomeness.
That's how it's done.
Everyone forgot one thing. You have to have Barbecued pork on the grill all day and night at the gay bar.
ReplyDeleteI like defiance too. And, I'm loving Steve, the Airline Jumper. He put up with so much crap from that hag who banked him on the head. Funny we don't know who SHE is. Anyway, He is too cool!
ReplyDeleteI've "liked" him on facebook.
