The Deluge of Absurdity, Ignorance, and Bad Posts

I disagree completely. Also, if someone put themselves in harm's way, that's on that person. Civil liberties of the population should never be suspended. Ever. Hoping people do not abuse power is ridiculous. The cops were out for revenge over the university cop that was killed. It had nothing to do with the people of Boston.

Remember this when it happens.

I predict a mass exodus of NDP MPs from Quebec to the Liberals under Trudeau, knowing they will not be able to win reelection as NDP candidates in Quebec.

Mark my words.

Yeah, that post is a motherload vein of asinine even by deluge standards.

Sometimes people are bad at the courtship thing. It goes both ways. No need to make yourself into a victim. I once had a coworker corner me and start rubbing her butt all over me. Take it as a compliment and move on. No need to get your panties all wadded. There are people with real problems out there.

Sanchez's stuff in the Boston thread.

Sikh terrorists bombed a Canadian airplane once. All I did is float the idea that this could be related to Ireland, which despite being at peace for decades now, still has lingering tensions. It takes only one nutjob with a grudge to act on them.

Y'know, I thought your posts were awful then, but Chechnya wasn't exactly the first place I'd expect, so N. Ireland doesn't seem all that far-fetched now. Consider this un-deluged.

All of memphis's posts about gender issues go here.

LBJ by far.  The only reason why he isn't up there with FDR is Vietnam.

Which is why he never ran for a second term.  He doesn't really qualify for this poll since he never even ran for a second term in 1968 despite being eligible to do so.

That is just being picky.  He was essentially co-president from 1961-1963.

Dear God, that brain-dead troglodyte is posting again? I had assumed that he'd accidentally electrocuted himself in the bathtub or something.

That guy kind of comes and goes, he's been on and off since 2008 when I remember him saying things like that if Obama won there'd be a total economic collapse and new Great Depression with >20% unemployment, all with an attitude and general air of "and if you disagree with me you're clearly just another media-brainwashed Obamabot."

I read a book once that mentioned how Ronald McDonald has been portrayed as a "basketball-playing hipster" in some McDonald's advertising, and ever since I have associated the term "hipster" with Ronald McDonald, who has creeped me out ever since I was a young child.

To be fair, it's totally understandable to find Ronald McDonald creepy.

Oldiesfreak has his own thread, put that quote there.

Speaking of Zarn, I just found this old gem of his that predates the Deluge but unquestionably belongs in it:

The bigger the government, the more left-wing it is.

[Lief 🗽]

Hahah, you even replied to that post by wondering why we didn't have a Deluge-like thread.

The bigger the government, the more left-wing it is.

How can people say such stupid things with such confidence?

Kind of makes you wish there was a Stupidity Goldmine doesn't it? There's no other place comments like that can properly belong.

Definitely not uncharacteristic of someone like him to say.

Let's keep the beatdown on Zarn continuing:

Rand Paul

Rubio is a silly answer. He is a 'moderate.'

something like this if hillary were to expose rand paul's crazy economics.

Fixed. Isn't 3 years out stuff fun?

I rather enjoy being lectured about sex by people who have zero experience with it. I feel like I'm at the Vatican.

Do you really think the people in Vatican have no idea about sex? Lulz.

Not with adults anyhow. Taking advantage of children is a different issue completely. Adult women have their own agency and sexual awareness, despite what all the asexual trans victimologists want so badly to believe.

This post is horrible. I'm speechless.

I reacted the only way I could react.

Memphis once again gives us a glimpse into his exceedingly narrow worldview.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

memphis is a Great Person.

[Antonio the Sixth]

I guess this is the point when Memphis crossed the Absurdity Line which separates posters which can legitimately spur outrage/disbelief from those who deserve nothing but constant ridicule.

[memphis]

All ad hominems. Zero rebuttal. I'm ever so surprised

[Antonio the Sixth]

Memphis, do you think if a woman goes outside dressed in a "slutty" outfit and gets raped that it is her fault for dressing that way?

I would not blame a victim of rape. Ever. At the same time, we all live in an imperfect world and need to be mindful of that fact. I wouldn't leave my front door wide open lest somebody loot my modest possessions. It wouldn't be my fault somebody stole my stuff, but it would have been wiser to be more conscious of the risks out there in the world.

Oh wait, my bad. You actually crossed the line twice. Utter disgust is now the only appropriate reaction.

Ad hominems are the rebuttal, since the way your awful personal character shines through bright as any diamond is what's absurd, ignorant, and bad about your posts.

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

Don't be too hard on memphis.  I thought the double entendres involved in leaving the front door open to one's modest possessions were clever at least.
