But she pretty much called everyone vapid and stuck up because the world didn't immediately cease when the news came out. The sentiment is that, on average, around 150000 people die every day of the year, and the world keeps spinning. Walker, while a famous man, is still just a man. Expecting everything to stop for him, instead of - say - the teen who fell asleep driving home from black friday this year, crashing his car, killing himself, and injuring 4 others, and insulting everyone who continues to enjoy their activities is kind of messed up. e: spelling Karma Comedian has a new favorite as of 22:25 on Dec 1, 2013 |

VoilaIntruder posted:So, the Onion Facebook page posted a story with the headline "Why are all the good guys Taken, Gay, Dead, or Available?" That is a truly amazing number of people who just outright don't get it. quote:Should have been "Why Are All The Good Guys Always Taken, Gay, Dead, Or Not My Type?" ..30 "like"s, way more than any others up to that point. For completely missing the unbelievably straightforward joke. Holy poo poo.

Hahahaha, my cousin fell for the 42 million people killed on Black Friday Onion article. I can't post it because she just deleted it, but it was hilarious to see one of her friends say "Uh, don't you think 42 million is a bit exaggerated? I mean, that's more than Canada's population."

My dad is one, and so are all the other clergymen of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. Wisconsin Synod clergy believe it too. Thing about Lutherans though is, yeah, we'll join the protests outside planned parenthoods, but we'll be half a block away quietly praying in a group, not holding up mangled fetus placards and harassing people trying to enter.

Except that's not even close to what the girl was saying? She said people were "stuck up in the game crap" a phrase that there would translate more to something like "engaged in watching a poor sporting event" rather than saying anyone was "stuck up" for not following celebrity news. Her point, in fact, seemed to be to inform people that this celebrity that many people (especially people she knows) liked had died and suggesting that if they've been too busy with the game to check some news sources for the full story. So yeah, OP was definitely overreacting a little.

Sounds like she is scolding people for watching a football game that they enjoy when they should instead be lamenting the loss of the legendary Paul Walker, star of such critically acclaimed films such as The Fast and The Furious 1-6.

Yeah, there is definitely an air of scolding about it, plus as I said she frequently makes those types of posts all the time complaining about what people do, so I did have a little more context I suppose. Either way, it's no big deal.

Maybe talking from your womb is some sort of feminist version of having your head up your own rear end?

This happens every time that Suicidal Tendencies meme pops up. After the original poster explained the joke, this was posted.  I know "Occam's Razor" isn't really a word you have to spell that often but c'mon. You linked it, dude. Read the drat link you sent.

Marge Arita and Sue Vaneer are brother and sister, and apparently there is some kind of serious rift between the two- or Marge is just an rear end in a top hat. Minnie Strone is their mother, and favors the brother and/or is crazy, I don't know. Lou Sinclark's post makes it sound like Marge got married way too young and is militant in trying to prove that he made the right decision.

Lou Sinclark's post makes it sound like Marge got married way too young and is militant in trying to prove that he made the right decision. Marge's first post says he has been a father since 15. So probably more "knocked up a girl too early." Also I don't know these people but Sue Vaneer seems insane as well. At least the "gently caress YOU MOM" seems like a huge overreaction to the mother just spouting a bunch of typical mom nonsense and hoping her kids stop arguing.

Then all the respective allies join in the fray and things escalate from there. Basically it's World War One, if WW1 was a stupid Facebook argument.
