Alec Baldwin's "Donald Trump" Once Again Riles @RealDonaldTrump

Donald Trump is a lot of things, and may actually require the invention of several new negative adjectives (and other parts of speech). But one of his best/worst qualities is his thin-skinnedness. And also, naturally, his predictability, at least in his knee-jerk Twitter responses. In this case, he's having another freakout about Alec Baldwin's Saturday Night Live impression of him, and also in this case, the parody was SPOT ON.

.@NBCNews is bad but Saturday Night Live is the worst of NBC. Not funny, cast is terrible, always a complete hit job. Really bad television!

I'm off work today, with no schedule, no commitments, and no responsibilities! So, I'm watching last week's Saturday Night Live on the DVR. I know, hold me back, right? I'm a third of the way through it, but my first laugh? From an email I got from Huffington Post. I just couldn't resist any photo essay that starts with Ann Coulter + Coyote Urine.

This one is a little more than weird. This is just (urf!) disgusting. My Grandmother's maiden name was Patton--related to the famous General--which means that (gaghhh!) this dude might be related to me in some way. Um, I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. . .

Urine a Lot of Trouble, Mr. Patton: Ohio Man Arrested for Collecting Boys’ Urine for Personal Consumption

If you ever wondered why we needed a catch-all criminal mischief provision, Allan Patton, 56, has the answer. Patton shut-off the urinals at the Hilliard West Municipal Pool in Ohio and inserted cups so that he could drink the urine of boys. He suffers from what is known as urophilia - which either means being really really crazy or having a sexual fetish involving urine — or both. The case, however, does present a novel issue of the appropriate criminal charge. . .
