It's nowhere near October, but one ensemble is already on track to be named the most controversial Halloween costume of 2015.

Social media users were out in full force on Monday criticizing several Halloween retailers for offering a Caitlyn Jenner costume reminiscent of the former-athlete's Vanity Fair cover earlier this year.

While Jenner's supporters condemned the costume as "transphobic" and "disgusting" on Twitter, Spirit Halloween, a retailer that carries the costume, defended the getup.

"At Spirit Halloween, we create a wide range of costumes that are often based upon celebrities, public figures, heroes and superheroes," said Lisa Barr, senior director of marking at Spirit Halloween. "We feel that Caitlyn Jenner is all of the above and that she should be celebrated. The Caitlyn Jenner costume reflects just that."

God damn it. I now have a mental picture of a dank-ass basement full of second hand couches and EVERYTHING is sticky to the touch. Walking across the floor must feel like being first on scene in a flood at a glue factory.

Because there's no better way to help confused kids by confusing them just that little bit more.

Isn't that the plot of Battlestar Galactica?

You can't make this shit up. Well I suppose you could, but this guy made it up first.

Did you know Obama is going to cancel the elections for unspecified reasons? Because Ben Carson sure thinks so.

“I think we’re past the point where politics is going to save America,” Price said. “There are a lot of people, including Ben Carson, who said this last December who think there might not even be an election next year, that there may be a declaration from a White House that would avoid an election. So why do we want to spend hours and hours and hours and tens of thousands of dollars on an election that may not happen?”

Price, author of "The End of America" said he understood the violent impulses of anti-government groups such as the Oath Keepers, but he said the even armed revolt could not save the U.S. from liberal depravity.

“When we see Kim Davis sitting six days in a jail but we see murderers who get out in a half an hour on bail, and we say, ‘That’s not right, it’s against our beliefs, it’s against God’s word’ — when we see all of those things and we want to really get upset and we want to either go to our gun closet or do something violent or go back in the streets, the problem with that is that all we are doing is feeding into the violence that Scripture says is going to happen in the end but it doesn’t solve the problem,” Price said. “God tells us how to solve the problem — he says flee. There’s a time to fight and there’s a time to flee.”

Price complained that liberals had won the so-called culture wars, and he said conservative Christians are already leaving because “they can’t cause America to go back to the way it was — it’s too late.”

Like it would even work that way. Russia is fucking Orthodox.

Considering American Christians that would flee be a majority of fundamentalist protestants, wouldn't Orthodox Christianity be against them since it could come off like Catholicism?

You know Russia was once called godless.

It's funny that they now refer to it as "godly" just because they have a hard on for persecuting homosexuals.

They may as well also refer to Russia being "godly" because, if I remember correctly, the Church has some sway in the government, does it not?
 
I'm just glad that no actual human beings were injured or killed.

I think this is true. On the other hand it's not meant to be taken seriously, it's just another right winger selling his snake oil to incredulous rubes.
