This guy's such a homophobic pig, even conservatives hate him
Meet Ryan Sorba of Californian Young Americans for Freedom. He got onstage during the annual Conservative Political Action Conference and condemned the conference for allowing a gay Republican organization (GoPride) to come to the party. How revengefully satisfying it is to see conservative douchebags booing one of their own for being too conservative and douchebaggy.

ice dome
I've been watching this for days and the fountain in the pond out back has finally formed a complete ice dome. It's very exciting.
Next post: watching an apple core turn brown. Stay tuned, readers!
