Some stupid bitch in FL. Jesus on a cracker, what the hell is wrong with some people? I’ve got an idea: how about “The Duty Hole Monologues?” Or, “Queefings of a Bearded Taco?”

A theatre in Florida has had to change the title of a charity production of The Vagina Monologues on its marquee, after a woman complained that it was offensive.

The new name? They’ve decided on ’The Hoohaa Monologues’.

Atlantic Theatres in Atlantic Beach, Florida, received a complaint from a woman who’d seen the advertised title as she drove past with her niece. She said that it had made her niece ask her what a vagina was.

When I was in college, my program had an arts requirement, that is, one needed several performance credits to graduate. I chose to take acting classes, and I confess: I sucked. But I did learn something about how the art of acting is to be found in so many parts of the rest of our world, even those in which truth telling and reality are supposedly paramount.

Moore pointed this out in Farenheit 911, in which he noted that for all the talk about borders and increased watchfulness, no real money has gone to places that are literally wide open to attack.  Read more
