You can find a very, uh, "interesting" response by a pink straw wearing a tiny fur coat (seriously) at funnyordie.com. Maybe not as much talent, but quite a bit more funny.

Kansas high school official: woman "cannot be put in a position of authority over boys"

I grew up in a small town in Kansas, still visit the folks a couple times a year, and in general greatly appreciate the place where I was born and raised. That being said, crap like this just makes me sad.

How to board a plane without ID -- be a pageant queen

While I am normally all for equal treatment under the law, I think the TSA agent letting Ms. Mori on the plane without much hassle was a good thing. Not because I think she deserves special treatment for being Miss Universe, but because she was a person VERY UNLIKELY TO BE A TERRORIST. That is really the only function of the TSA, stop terrorists from taking control of or destroying airplanes. I wish they would treat more then just beauty contest winners in such a logical manner, but maybe if we start with the beautiful, eventually such fair treatment will trickle down to children under 6, grandmas, and then to the rest of us.

The other option is just to grab air purifying respirator with HEPA cartridges and start wearing it around the house. Not only will you protect yourself against asbestos, toxic particulates, airborne radioactive contamination, and poison dust thrown by ninjas (full face only) but its hands-free operation allows for knitting or the playing of Wii. No annoying mouthpiece, either.
