Firefighters provide a valuable service to the community.


Bobonne - 2015-03-20

Everybody loves firefighters.

Nobody hates a firefighter.

Because they're always doing the right thing.


Nominal - 2015-03-20

Scott Walker hates them.


memedumpster - 2015-03-20

The town I live in has a fire department. No one knew we did because they never put out any fires, just distributed the money they got to themselves and their friends. The one time they did try and help, during a snowstorm, they refused to help stranded black people, saying, over their radio, "no niggers get a ride."

Local news spent two years getting the evidence to destroy them, the surprise interviews were glorious, they sent an Asian woman into KKK-FD. Yes, they were EXACTLY the kind of people you think they are, yes, they looked exactly like you think they did and of course they talked exactly like you think they would.

Also, there are several towns where firefighters must be paid protection money to not just stand and watch your house burn down.

No one is sacred.

For Memedumpster.

Agreed. God, Scott Walker.. I'm ashamed to have left Wisconsin. Pretty much within the year I left, Walker got in and the state that was once the most liberal in the country (three Socialist mayors in Milwaukee, not to mention Russ Feingold) got even worse than Joseph McCarthy and Tommy Thompson combined :(


EvilHomer - 2015-03-20

IZ- liberal, or socialist?

Meme- You do realize that your local news reporters pursued that story in order to gain ratings and further their own careers, yes? Get Anonymous to expose your corrupt firefighters, and then maybe we can talk.

Socialist. Frank Ziedler, Emil Zeidell and Daniel Hoan. I spent too much time married to someone who worked in the historical archives at UW Madison.


EvilHomer - 2015-03-20

That sucks. Well, at least Russ Feingold was there; didn't you say at one point that you knew him? Or, like, banged a daughter of his?


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

Yeah. My housemate dated Ellen, and she more-or-less lived with us instead of in the dorms, so Russ was around from time to time and we drank together at the bar.


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

But I never banged her.. not really my type. Kind of what is considered "basic bitch" but she was really nice.


memedumpster - 2015-03-20

Fuck yeah, I hope she makes CNN. I didn't even have to get her to do it, she did it on her own! I didn't need Anonymous because she acted autonomous. Besides, these were KKK affiliated firefighters, not women on the Internet who dare speak.

I still insist to everyone I meat that Wisconsin is a myth.


EvilHomer - 2015-03-20

That's awesome! I can count the number of successful American politicians that I genuinely respect on my fingers, and Russ was definitely one of them. I wish he had of stuck around, but his was a dying breed.

If I survive the coming zombie apocalypse and found the utopian city-state of Homer's Gulch, I would love to invite Russ to come along and be our mayor or President. What type of booze did he like? I must know so I can make arrangements.


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

It was (is)? still a beautiful part of the country. The frank Lloyd Wright architecture for one, some really weird tourist traps, one of the best theatre programs in the country (at one point UW Milwaukee's theatre arts program was ranked second only to Yale's) and a Big Ten university that's considered a "public ivy" and of course WATERSLIDES WATERSLIDES WATERSLIDES


Caminante Nocturno - 2015-03-20

"I still insist to everyone I meat that Wisconsin is a myth."

Memedumpster just accidentally revealed that they're Ed Gien!


memedumpster - 2015-03-20

Thanks, Caminante, I lost a boyfriend over that movie.

Fuck, I wish that weren't true.


Oscar Wildcat - 2015-03-20

Did he end up in the freezer?


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

EH he was (and I assume still is) a whiskey on the rocks kinda guy.. I think it was Jameson. And he also kept it local with New Glarus beer. I think he quit smoking but you might want to stock up on cigarettes just in case but I don't know the brand. It was funny because we always went to this place called "The Pub" which was mostly filled with the.. well.. I hate the word Townies but it wasn't a douchebag college bar like the Kollege Klub up the street, just kind of a dive. He just blended in like he was somebody's dad visiting, which was the truth. Imagine Gdubs doing that with his daughters, or even Clinton for that matter. I've said it before, but I would've been on board for a McCain/Feingold presidency in 2004, and actually probably 2008.

New Haven, everyone!


EvilHomer - 2015-03-20

We were the birthplace of George Dubya, you know.


EvilHomer - 2015-03-20

... and of course this guy is in a hipster folk band from Milford.


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

Gdubs was at my brother's commencement speech at Yale in June of 2001, and so was Hillary. I turned my chair around and put on headphones and listened to Pavement Slanted and Enchanted.


EvilHomer - 2015-03-20

Yeah, Dubs, Daddy Dubs, and Billary were all Yalees. Our nation was basically ruled by New Haven for twenty years straight!

What did your brother major in?


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

Music and Science (I think biochem, I can't remember) but pretty much dropped science altogether and got deep into the acapella choir scene, becoming the pitchpipe for the Dukesmen and later the Whiffenpoofs. There's still a lot of things he can't tell me about from those days.


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

(like probably skull and bones shit)


infinite zest - 2015-03-20

Hehe.. Milford and Sons


Kabbage - 2015-03-20

Just casually hoses them into the gutter.
