Here are some classic examples of Weiner in action:

1. Without a doubt, this is my favorite. House Mouse, Senate Mouse. This was in response to a newly elected representative trying to circumvent the policies for how bills get passed. (Jump to 1:48 if you don’t have 3 minutes)

2. My first introduction to Rep. Weiner was his classic rant related to the Republicans blocking the vote on the 9/11 First Responders Bill. He’s pissed. “THE GENTLEMAN WILL SIT!” (Like I said, if nothing is going to get accomplished in Congress, at least I’m getting my money’s worth in entertainment value!)

3. “Half-Time” report on the attempt to repeal healthcare. Again, if nothing is getting done, the commentary might as well be good.

4. My second favorite. I saved it for last because it’s long, but I promise it’s worth 12 minutes of your life. Dude roasts himself at the Correspondent’s Dinner.

Follow him @RepWeiner. Why? To see the “’70s Jew Fro” of course!

And for the record, are we seriously arguing about 191 abortions? Can’t my tax dollars go toward congress talking about something that actually matters?

Check this out: RNC chairman candidates must name their political hero, aside from Ronald Reagan, defend marriage, and reveal how many guns they own.

Typically I am anti- all things that tweens are into. These things tend to be so incredibly sappy, unrealistic, and generally extremely terrible. To top it off, I can’t stand large groups of twelve year old girls squealing together and thinking they own the place. It obnoxious and it drives me out of my mind.

Then Twilight came out. Not even going to give this a chance. It’s all the things that I just described.

Then New Moon came out. I kind of was interested from the previews. A lot of my friends are super into the whole saga, so eventually I broke down. I saw Twilight, then a week later saw New Moon (in theaters, and sweet Jesus there were SO MANY squealing teenagers!).

I’m not even going to try and closet my feelings. I <3 Twilight. I’m genuinely happy I gave it a chance, and I’m actually pretty surprised I liked it so much. I could watch it over and over (well maybe no more than twice a month lol) and not tire of it. Edward? Yes please.

But we also have to talk about the fact that it’s all of the things I traditionally hate. I’ll give the sappy, unrealistic-ness of it all a pass, since that’s part of what makes it enjoyable. But the acting is abhorrent and there is no excusing that. And I can’t get past the Morman undertones/subliminal indoctrination. To top it off, we’re talking about a SUPER unhealthy relationship here. Edward is kind of a stalker and Bella needs some self-esteem stat. I haven’t read the books yet, but I have a feeling that the quality isn’t going to be that great so I’ve been putting it off.

And then MZ introduced me to Alex Reads Twilight.

OMFG I haven’t laughed this hard in years. He points out all the nitpicky things that I would find problems with and makes fun of them. Whether you love or hate the Twilight Saga, I really think you’ll appreciate this series just based on his sarcasm, wit, and British accent.

So here it is: Chapter 1

(note: he seems to only do ~2 chapters a month, and as of today he’s only up to ch. 14. it’s completely worth the wait)

I don’t need any further commentary do I? LOL

Thanks, Kelly!

First cool guy is smokin a cig, then….well you saw what happened. YES!

Thanks MZ for the entertainment. I almost peed myself when I watched this.

Thanks to Jess for pointing this out to me, and credit to Mission Mission for this great find!

“I mean, I avoid “the bro” every chance I get. But to straight-up bar them from the community? That seems a tad bit like overkill.”

Agreed!

"Okay, you need attention, gotcha. Now at what point do you decide the best way to draw that attention to yourself is making your backside look like a weird long-nosed martian? Even if you legitimately had a 3 foot striped tail, there has to a better way to accessorize it."

Plenty more where that came from at peopleofwalmart.com

This doesn’t require further commentary.
