Eurovision is serious business apparently. Around here people got into a frothing rage over Stella Mwangi being selected to represent Norway because she was black wasn't norwegian enough. At the same time, the belarusian Alexander Rybak who represented us 2 years prior was still being worshipped as a rogueish, fiddle-playing national hero.

OK, Suey Park is an idiot, but I feel compelled to point out that the offending tweet was posted after the episode it goes with was taped...but before the episode itself had aired. That is a joke that REALLY needs context - when read just by itself with absolutely no idea what it is referencing, it can come off as a bit shocking. The real problem is that someone at Colbert Report had an itchy trigger finger.

The whole thing was dumb but it becomes a bit more understandable once you understand the timeline of it all. It was mostly just a huge misunderstanding because, again, bad timing. Context is king. Of course, once it came out what happened and that the tweet was supposed to go along with, a sane person should go 'ooooh yeaaah, I got it now', but Suey just kept going because of stubborn pride. CAN'T BACK DOWN!

Ah, I see. I always thought it was After Episode/context->Tweet
Context really is important...

Haha, Tim Tebow is trending because people with no understand of context are angry that Micahel Sam is being celebrated and Tebow was mocked. There are a shitload of Christian football players; Tebow was mocked for being a dumb spectacle about it (and being insanely overrated coming out of college).

Don't be an idiot. Everybody knows those are not the important ones. The only real rule handed out in the entirety of the Bible is that dudes shouldn't gently caress other dudes.

Pick anything. There will be a group of people, somewhere, that takes it so seriously it's bordering on a mental illness. No, I take that back, there are people somewhere that take it so seriously it is a mental illness. Doesn't matter what it is. Which is, of course, why YouTube comments are kind of cheating. Hell even YouTube videos are kind of cheating. Whenever somebody loses some sort of talent competition there's always the pages and pages of "oh noes my life is ruined!!!" insanity.

A lot of idiots aren't aware that GSM people don't all fall under the umbrella of "gay." And the epithet they're using is applied to, and unfortunately used by, drag queens a lot.

I'm guessing it's some kind of site restriction, like it blocks you from doing anything meaningful on the site for a while.

He's got a point. I remember from my own Bible-based upbringing the words of Our Lord:

quote:

Rub ye not your ding-dongs together, for this is a false brotherhood. Chew thee not the root, nor have thy knob slobbered upon by thy brother, for this is also icky. Partaketh thee not in butt stuff, but rather herald the kingdom of God with compound fractures and traumatic brain injuries and take the Word wherever you goeth, ads you taketh thy nine into the nightclub.

You loving heathens.

A transexual won it back when I was a teenager and I don't remember anyone giving much of a gently caress then. The internet brings out the absolute worst in people and I don't know if it's better or worse now than it was ten years ago when we could pretend they were only talking so much poo poo because they had anonymity.

Yeah, from what a minute on Wikipedia tells me, he's a cis dude, he uses female pronouns when in character, which I presume isn't very uncommon in drag stuff.

Then again, the kind of person who'd unironically write "throw trannies off a cliff" probably isn't too familiar with that sort of thing. On the bright side, two less idiots on my facebook.
