Title: What the hell is wrong with people?
Post by: Pastor Josh on August 21, 2009, 03:09:25 PM
I thought I'd start this as a place to post things that don't really merit conversation or aren't related to the show in a direct way but are just so wrong that you feel like sharing them.  Sort of a place to tear down any faith in humanity you have left.  So here's what I saw today to spur this on:

Michael Vick Dog Tees

And those damn Nazi Israelis
http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2009/08/israel_is_just_like_hitler.php (http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2009/08/israel_is_just_like_hitler.php)

So what have you seen lately that is just too anti-life affriming not to share?

If I see one more shaken baby or 2-year-old beaten to death story this summer, I'm blowing up the Earth AND the Moon.

I've been following your tweets, Baron.  I hope you're feeling better.  Maybe a better idea for a topic would be "What is great about people", and it would include things like TOM/DOG.

what is great about people:

FOTs in general.  the best people ive ever "met" in my life; ive never encountered a group with kinder hearts OR nearly as funny. 

also, the guy who changed my oil when i got my car washed; an honest mechanic is a rarity.






this was a great idea!  im feeling better by the minute.  alright, lets get back to bashing goons.

Took my son to Toys R Us today and they had an 18" tall Jason Vorhees doll right next to the Hot Wheels stuff my 6-year-old was looking at. What is wrong with people that they would put such disturbing detritus on the shelves of a fucking toy store?

I'm not saying that Bratz dolls and Wolverine dolls are much better, but a ZOMBIE WHO MURDERS ANYONE WHO FUCKS?

What's wrong with that? Installing that good Protestant Ethic young.

I agree with Trembling Eagle.  You have to be carefully taught, after all.

One more.  First, I see this from a friend on Facebook:

R.I.P. Ted Kennedy You Big Sloppy Liberal Icon... You Will Be Missed

Despite my friend's weird capitalization habit, there's nothing too awful there.  But here's the first reply:

no no you wont good riddance

Is there such a thing as class any more?

Why are so many of my Facebook friends convinced I want nothing more than to see pictures of their ugly-ass babies?  (So, um, yeah, I'll just be using this topic to rant about crap I can't put on Facebook or Twitter.)
