Skepchick Quickies 7.14
Can I just say how disappointing it was to not wake up next to a Skepchick this morning? My life is so hard.
- Kiss-in protest held in defiance of LDS church – Now that’s my kind of protest.
- Monday was Manhattanhenge – “Manhattanhenge (sometimes referred to incorrectly as “Manhattan Solstice”) is a biannual occurrence in which the setting sun aligns with the east-west streets of Manhattan’s main street grid.” From Anne.
- Teen Skepchicks review The Othersiders - The Teens have a few posts up reviewing this kid’s ghost hunting show. It was great getting to talk to Cassie in person about this at TAM!
- SMBC brings you the Creationist Response Dice Game – From Durnett.

Welcome to my hell.
Mike.
I’ve always thought of creationism as more of a BINGO game. They have little balls that they randomly pull out of a spinning machine, and I’m certain that if I had a BINGO card, I could win it easily.

New at the Skepchick store: Skepchick Body Pillows.
@Steve: Gotta collect them all!
@catgirl: maybe something like one of these “ID” Bingo or Creationist Bingo.
Maybe we could also make this into a skeptic drinking game … on second thought, I don’t think they make enough tang.
I LOVE the kissing protest! That’s just perfect!
@Amanda: Can’t be any harder to make than a tauntaun sleeping bag.
@Steve: As long as you don’t combine the two into a “sleep inside a skepchick” sleeping bag. Because that’s just creepy.
@Amanda: Yeah, no, that’d be bad. Not even Han Solo could make that look cool.
@Amanda: It is too early in the morning for the dirty dirty place my mind just went to.
It was nice getting to talk to you as well Amanda!
@Amanda: I love it when you Skepchicks make me want to give you a COTW. :)
When I first heard about the couple that was arrested, I thought it would be funny to make out with a drag king on their property to see what the response would be.
@Jake Lsewhere:
Thanks for those! I’ll have to print out a bunch of copies to have around for every time I read some silly creationist argument. What do I get as a prize if I win though?
@catgirl:
Actually, I found a flaw in the ID Bingo card. The lower right corner says “repeats debunked arguments”, but that applies to nearly all the other squares on the card also. I guess it’s sort of a freebie.
@Amanda: Well, it depends on your definition of “inside.”
I know what you are talking about, Amanda! It’s hard to wake up with just ONE Skepchick.
@MiddleMan: I was told at TAM that I need to let out my vulgar swearing-like-a-sailor side more here, so I’m trying to do just that.
Oh, Amanda, I’ll always be waking up with you in spirit.
I would just settle for a chance to have a skepchick sitting next to me at the bar. Or in the couch.
But alas, TAM is finished :(
Also, it seems I totally missed Cassie.
And I didn’t even realise Jen was THE Jen until the skepchick party was almost over. That one bothers me the most …
