Work out the hypocrisy on that one yourselves.
Fox News: the only media outlet I hate more than Gawker and the Huffington Post
I’m sitting in my Mom’s car and listening to At the Drive-In while I eat Burger King for the first time in three months. In fact, this is the first carb I’ve had in a week-and-a-half.
I am sober as a tree and unequivocally care free. The question is: what rehab should I check myself into? What life do I live that this isn’t rock bottom?
Zesty sauce, you guys.
Chambaland - “Crazy Deep” (Adele vs. Gnarls Barkley)
I CANNOT be the only one who heard this.
Well, this is incredible.
People are being blown up and shot in Norway because of shitty right wing politics and as usual the American people are wet in the eyes over some self-destructive skeleton monster passing into the ethereal valley of who cares.
Is it possible to have emotions over both? Can I make posts about Norway and my frustration with racist bullshit while also feeling really, really annoyed that everyone on my facebook is cracking jokes about addiction?
I’m not wet in the eyes. I’m pissed. Chip on my shoulder type thing, you know?
She was a person, you fucking asshole, not a “skeleton monster”. People can be upset about more than one thing.
There’s such a beautiful irony in what the original poster is saying… trying to take some insane, socio-political high ground by (in my opinion) using the tragic death of 92 (at least, as confirmed at present time of typing) to push them up on a pedestal to show that they mourn a more worthy group of people than others. Not only can you appreciate the tragedy in both circumstances, but you should also be able to appreciate context. If you weren’t crying over the death of a dictator, I’d at least get it, but that’s not the case. Not only is the irony rife when you’re, in a twisted manner, trying to encourage compassion for the victims of the attacks in Norway yesterday, whilst vehemently lacking in compassion by, not only disregarding the complexity of drug addiction and circumstance, but even going as far to use the insult “skeleton monster”.
Grow up, OP. If you don’t care, ignore it like rational human being. The woman wasn’t a despot, there’s no need for ridiculous hostility - a life was lost, a life as important as each individual life in Norway - not one of thos lives is more important than other. (inb4 “well derp she was a drug addict - you don’t know that one of those who died in Norway weren’t a day away from the same kind of existence, and even if that happened to be the case, people should be intelligent enough to take circumstance into considerastion and not mindlessly judge people for it).
OH FOR FUCK’S SAKE// ALLOW ME TO REPOST
Fine. Fine fine fine. It was a joke. Apparently you didn’t get it. But fine. Forget it. I will never try to make jokes ever again. You have wedged the stick of Not Getting It so far up my ass it’s starting to tickle my colon, and I don’t appreciate that. You are the reason satire is dead in this country. You all have taken the fun out of everything. I’m so glad that you’ve set me straight on all of my past and future misdeeds.
In case you need anything else to be incredibly self-righteous about, you’ll be happy to know that I once staged a production of the Laramie Project where I changed every character’s name to Faggy Fagballs McFagberger and then burned a cross on Anne Frank’s grave. Have fun with all that information and please ride the moral high horse you came in on over the edge of a chasm.
What a sad day. RIP Amy Pohler.
