My Latest Idea.




Lately, I've been thinking about different things I can do to keep the Larkins Way interesting, fresh and tasty. I've tried multiple things but to my ever growing shagrin, none have really "stuck".

I've come to the realization I am a one trick pony. A first class hack. A republican vice president with shit for aiming accuracy. It really is difficult to continually write updates when you are constantly trying to reuse the same idea over and over but just changing the words around. Kinda like that J.K. Rowlings chap, only with less obnoxious English charm.

That's where my latest rediculous interactive idea comes into play. Here's the rub, Horatio: send me a few of your favorite words and a couple of topics. if there are enough words and one really good topic, I will write an update using those provided items. It's like "Who's line is it anyway" and a real shitty version of "MadLibs"
rolled into one awful trainwreck of a writing experiment. This one is guaranteed to disappoint, folks!

As far as I can tell, this is a real hum-dinger of a half-assed attempt at entertainment. So indulge a talentless jerk and send in those topics and words. I'll cull the herd and take the rest for a kick-ass* update.




*May not kick-ass.

I'm Off To The Pity Party.



Does the above image offend you? Do you want to throw rocks and firebombs at my house? Do you love cats? Are you Muslim? If you answered yes to these questions, you are an asshole. Now don't read into this the wrong way, but again, if you answered yes to those questions, you will. I'm not looking to offend anyone, I'm just looking to express myself in an unfunny and sophmoronic manner. Often times someone is going to say or do something you don't like and often times that someone is me so I'm told. Welcome to the world, wear a helmet and be a big boy.

Unfortunately it appears that a cartoon of the revered Muslim grand poobah with an explosive turban got the better part of the Middle East in a frenzy. The worse part is still under reconstruction. There have been apologies and denouncements of this hateful, bigoted, slightly erotic image and frankly I am befuddled. No one said "kill Muslims" or "whitey's gonna get ya", it was a satirical image conveying the idea that there are those who use a religion for evil deeds. Sorry if a thought outside of the "collective" is seen as a threat to your way of life which seems to be the only one that matters.

Oddly enough as a Catholic, I have witnessed countless jabs, sneers, jokes, puns, insults, atrocities, crimes, mini-series, movies, books and cereals aimed with razor sharp barbs at my respective religion. Do Catholics band together roaming the streets and creating havok? Outside of Ireland that is. No. it's rude and disruptive. look, sorry to say but it may be time to join the rest of us with being content to concentrating our ire on W, but not blowing things/people up. If you're still upset, here is a pic of a cute baby:



Now, all you gay cowboys: shut up. Just shut the hell up. So some people casually joke about 'Brokeback Mountain'. Bigots are bigots and that lame-ass movie isn't going to be the lynchpin deciding factor for that spiteful little bastard on the cusp but can't quite decide if he hates gays or not. So you are here and queer, fabulous. I for one could care less what you do and with whom. I would use my anti-Catholic defense but you probably have legitimate beef there. I'll give you that. Point and Match. So for you, here is a picture of a kitten in a cowboy hat:



If you in anyway find any part of this offensive, poorly written, or unentertaining, drop me a line. I'll be happy to insult you personally. Also, I'm still accepting dollar donations. Thanks, bitches.
