The Oldiesfreak Deluge of Absurdity, Ignorance, and Bad Posts III

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I was going to empty quote Grumps because what he said was ignorant and absurd, but I rather not create confusion. He posted his response to Antonio right into the deluge anyway.

I consider 0°C to be "pretty damn cold out", but that's just me.

Good call, Snowdawg.

Literally the most atrocious single poster on the forum who's not a blatant sock or spambot. The worst.

What about simfan (unless you count him under the sock category)?

This thread make it here yet?

Mandela faced far more obstacles in his fight.

No words express the level of distaste I feel towards this post...

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

Totally absurd

I'm 20 and never have dated a girl. It doesn't have to make your life miserable.

Oh, so you want me to feel miserable? Thanks but no thanks.

Please explain why. This post wasn't meant to say that Dr. King never faced any obstacles but that Mandela struggled against a far more oppressive government opposed to rights for blacks then MLK ever did.

This might be true but it's not a comparison worth making considering that in our country, countless African-Americans were killed or imprisoned with state-sanctioned violence during the struggle for civil rights. It's also worth keeping in mind that MLK was hated by whites at the time of his assassination and was faced by violent mobs in every northern city he went to.

Coming from you, that's priceless.

It doubles as self-deprecation, and anyway I found the picture funny.

Capital letters are pointless and should be abolished.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

One of the few times where True Leftism is more absurd then the teary eyed third way/internationalism of liberals.

HP (NAFTA, welfare "reform", Wall Street deregulation, mass murder of Sudanese/Iraqis/Serbs, promotion of predatory loaning practices & the .com bubble, needless focus on balancing the budget, etc.)

You like Lenin and Robespierre, so please, you can't reproach him for being a mass murderer (and it's not the case).

>implying that wiping out reactionaries intent on continuing their enslavement of their respective nations is anything like killing innocent people in bombing raids

Stay dumb, liberalism

seriously wtf.

Put on a damn coat and sweater. It was -20 (Celsius) this morning and I was fine biking to work. In fact, I was sweating.

I hate warm clothing. The only thing I hate more than warm clothing is cold itself.

If you polar bears are fine with these temperatures, great. But for normal humans, cols is horrible.

This is not Arabic we're discussing here.

Seriously, though- what purpose do they serve, except making learning to read and write a little harder?

Huey Long is the greatest human being among all Deep South politicians between the end of Reconstruction and the end of Jim Crow.  Surely we can all agree on that much?

False.

No offense, but am I supposed to just recognize who that is?

{looks it up}.  Ah, Hugo Black.  Not awful compared to other Deep South segregationists, but still was a staunch segregationist.  Unfortunately I put him in the top 10%, but not #1.

Bad part bolded.

You'll enjoy global warming immensely then.

But don't confuse your hatred of "warm clothing" for being normal though.

[Hash]

Warm clothing, or alternatively being tightly wound up and cozy in warm clothes/sheets is awesome. On the other hand, today's -20 wasn't awesome. Your glasses frosting up when you breathe isn't amusing.

[Lief 🗽]

When the Good Lord intelligently designed humans, He did not intend for us to live anywhere where it is -20 degrees.

He did, however, intend for us to murder animals and wrap ourselves in their warm and cozy skins.

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

Clinton is going to pick a 79 year old running mate?

Why not?

It's time the White House was turned into an extended care facility anyway.

Both Clinton and Powell will be needing it by that time.

Written sarcasm either goes way over my head, or this was real . I suspect the former, but just to be sure...

Smith without a shadow of a doubt.

We should all be thankful that he didn't impose a South Africa style Apartheid system after Rhodesia declared her independence. It was a flourishing nation under his rule and anyone who believes that Mugabe has done a better job to help the nation thrive is delusional and/or ignorant.

[H. Ross Peron]

On a thread regarding whether a non-Christian President would celebrate Christmas:

I don't believe I would ever vote for such a person, and I think they would be voted against handily in our country. But if they were to be elected--hypothetically, I would hope that they would not deny us the Christmas season.

No, this was real. What's the problem?
