Climate change believers say that if it is warm in the winter clearly we are destroying the Earth. And Deniers say that if it snows, then everything is just fine. But clearly there is a pattern of extreme weather developing the last few years.  Tornadoes on New Years in the Midwest, and a huge chunk of Texas still in a legal state of emergency drought from last summer,  extreme weather is all the rage. 

So what do we do? Panic? Bury our heads in the sand? How about a little caution? Lets just all agree that the only thing being a little greener in our lives is our wallets in the short term, but in the long term we benefit from reduced energy costs, and maybe just air that is clearer than the snot China calls a climate. 

I have some of the curly light bulbs I bought for my home 5 years ago that have never burnt out or been replaced. And that has not only saved me a nice bit of change, but also has allowed me to not have to risk my ass falling off an 8 foot ladder replacing a bulb once a month just so I can see to clean my house.  My little House. That's currently underwater. Shit. On second thought, maybe I'll sit in the dark tonight.

If Gary Oldman as a Centaur doesn't make you love this, then Kate  Beckinsale making sweet Wookie love to Chewbacca will. 
This is the only thing besides The Muppets winning best original song that was of any worth to come out of last nights Oscars

The state of the current GOP is beyond ridicule at this point. They have become self mocking in everything they say and are damn near irrelevant to anyone who lives outside of the 13th Century. If you had told me a year ago that it was possible that Santorum might be the frothy nominee of the GOP I would have done a spit-take. Its 2012 and The House Republicans are discussing contraception, women's rights, and gay rights. Oh and Satan taking over America. WTF? Seriously? So until the GOP get their act together I will not take this crap seriously anymore. Its just a waste of time. They may be winning their base, but they are doing it Charlie Sheen style, and I think we can all agree that wins NOTHING.

On a side note I want a dozen of these little guys to pull me across town on a sled while AC/DC plays my intro music. Because that would be both bad ass and outstandingly adorable.

Honestly 'thehell do I care? We are working on a new layout with some new graphics and what not so the next few days things will be a mess on the site. But we are doing this for you. Because we love you. Even if you dont love us back and only show us any attention when you are slapping us with restraining orders and telling us to stay back 500 feet. How where we supposed to know it was "inappropriate" to proclaim our affection by rubbing ourselves against the glass of your passenger window? What do we look like mind readers?

What the Holy hell?
Well the Gop Primary is really looking like a clown car pile up on the highway to  Hell tonight. The Conservatives and GOP establishment  are going at each other ass to ass style with chainsaws and no lube, while the late night Rave that has broken out at the White House watching this mess on CNN can be heard from Sarah Palin's house. 

Somewhere Ronald Regan is asking if he can switch his party affiliation back to Democrat.

Some things defy explanation. This is one of those things.

Okay so it's been a bit quite as of late round these parts. Unless you are on our Facebook. Then its been quite lively. You know if your definition of lively is the suicide spiral our culture seems to be taking as of late. But no worries. The all new and IMPROVED F'd Up in Middle America is on the way. And like our tiny friend above, it will be as fresh as the day it was wrapped in cellophane.

So depending on how the scheduling works out this may be the first of many political cartoons by ArtMonkeyWorld David Carr.

Sure Everyone has done it. But no one has done it like this!In true F’d Up! tradition, the holidays are not the least bit safe from our twisted world view, nor our equally twisted comedic stylings. So here we present to you our version of the Charles Dickens classic morality story, “A Christmas Carol.” Not to be confused with Christmas Carol the Santa Stripper, who is far more content to sit on your lap then the other way round.

Although Santa is free...

Holy Shit. This fucking thing is 10 foot tall. Who is putting this in their front yard? Let alone paying 40 Bucks for it? If its you, be aware, you are offically part of the problem.
