A great stand-up comic who performed at the White House correspondents dinner in 2009

Wanda Sykes on Rush Limbaugh:
"Rush says he wants Obama to fail, thats the same as saying he wants America to fail, that's like treason, it's the same thing al-Qaeda is saying, I think Rush was the 20th hijacker, but he was strung out on oxycontin and missed his flight."

idiot bar

a device found on most newer lawn mowers that will shut the mower off if you let go of the handle so as to prevent some idiot from sticking their hand under a lawn mower while it is running, a similiar device found on a snow blower or other gas powered equipment

The thing I hate about mowing the lawn is when you take your hand off the idiot bar for just a second to move something out of the way and you have to restart the mower.

dork light

an extra brake light usually in the back window or on the trunk lid which supposedly reduces the chances of being rear-ended, so named because of their some somewhat dorky appearance, dork lights became mandatory on all new cars beginning in 1986

I hate it when I tap my brakes and get a flash of red from the dork light in my back window it makes me think I'm getting pulled over or something
