You Can Come By Any Time You Want

I've got another Jesus, Etc. column over at Pajiba.

P.S. Somebody in the comment section asked why I didn't mention Kathy Griffin's "Suck it, Jesus" speech from Saturday's Creative Arts Emmys. The answer: I think Kathy Griffin is unfunny and annoying. Sure, I agree that a lot of artists can cheapen religion when thanking God while accepting an award, and I've seen plenty of weird acceptance speeches in my day. (But you haven't lived until you've heard a tearful Siggie thank God for guiding them to Sing Song victory, which come on, if I was God, I wouldn't care about that at all. At all.) But like I said, Griffin is the polar opposite of humor and intellect, and is only slightly less annoying than being punched in the head, so I didn't want to give her a spot in the column.

Sing Song is pretty dang important.

Speaking as one who started a dynasty, I agree. I'm just saying, chalking up the victory to spiritual guidance seems a little weird.

Ty

Speaking as one who ended a dynasty, I pray everyday for the dynasty to come back.

Ty

Ok...Maybe not really everyday.

I've always thought Sing Song was a terrible name.

Justin

Wait, so you're telling me that God has not issued a command to the Siggies to crush the rest of the ACU women's social clubs under their boot-heel of dominance?

If that's the case, I have many things I need to sort out in my life.

Kathy Griffin is the opposite of what's good.

Constance

It's kinda strange - the men in my life (real or cyber) all abhor Kathy Griffin with a strange and intense fervor while the women I know all seem to like her. Well, I do anyway. I think she's hilarious.

I hope we can still be friends.

Sarah

I think Kathy Griffin is hilarious. There -- I said it.
