Tipper Tirade

I was flooded with memories, nay, I became that angry teenager again, when I heard about Al and Tipper Gore separating today. I was as involved as a teenager could be when Tipper was cuckolding Al into adding censorship to their family’s, and our nation's agenda. I talked a lot, I wore cool t-shirts, I prayed for justice.

I went on a tirade on Facebook. I got silly, and it dominated my page, so I decided to move it here for a greater sense of permanence and cohesiveness, and to clean up my profile. Enjoy.

As for a reason for the separation, some wags on Twitter are tweeting that it’s because Tipper discovered Frank Zappa and Prince music on Al’s iPod, or variations of that theme.

Perhaps I'm being unfair. Tipper, what do you have to say about this?
