Flowers smell NICE?!?! NICE?!?!! Flowers used to smell nice till George Bush gave Haliburton the contract for flowers. And those oh so nice ear rings I’m wearing today can’t be worn by my children due to the fact that those elitist liberals won’t completly eliminate the estate tax. The ear rings will be taken away and given to a welfare mother in Detroit. Puppies are cute. - Sorry, got nothing on that. ---

> [@Eve](#): > > 1. Puppies are cute. I know I’m not supposed to say this, but when I read such extremist diatribes from the radical cur-kissing element, I know that it is time to just pull up the lawnchair and watch the fireworks. How dare you claim to be the know-all about puppies?! Geesh. This is going to get real ugly real fast. ---

It’s bad enough you’re encouraging the enslavement of your fellow animals with your “puppies are cute” mentality but you also are encouraging the genocide of our plant siblings with your “flowers smell nice” hate speech. You’re just like Hitler, encouraging people to kill the Jews. All lifeforms deserve to live and be free. > [@](#): > > 1. Why, what pretty earrings you have on today!

No wonder you have such a high post count when you continually post trite crap like this. You are such an attention whore. At least have the decency to give your thread a descriptive title so those of us with some sense can avoid wasting our time opening it. How about this title: **Stupid crap I’m posting to pad my post count because I don’t have a life.** Get some therapy, bitch. 😉 ---

You’re all very insenstive, posting your lovey-dovey nicey-nice statements when people are dying down in New Orleans. You make me sick. Robot Arm that nickel belongs to someone. Don’t you think you are stealing by not returning it to its rightful owner? ---

> [@twickster](#): > > How do you know s/he’s snacking on chemicals? It could be carrots. Sheesh. Jump to conclusions much? Percentages, my friend, percentages. You know the snack isn’t carrots. I know the snack isn’t carrots. Quit living in your whoo-whoo dreamland for just a tiny moment and you might just notice how few people are snacking on carrots. And, by the way, carrots are root crops. They “grow” in a pesticide laden sludge-stew of chemical pseudosoil, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, diseased manure, polluted water runoff, and who knows what else. Then these genetically engineered franken-karrots are picked by filthy-handed workers in unsanitary conditions and packed off for a thousand plus mile drive to some rat-infested, improperly refrigerated storehouse. Weeks later, our limp, vitamin-drained orange/brown sticks are laid out by uncaring underpaid produce lackeys and left for a week or two until some doe-eyed clueless grocery victim bags them in plasticine-leaking non-biodegradable sacks and totes them home to potato chip lovin’ junior. What a friggin’ improvement. And a big “thank you” to those kind people who helped out when my car broke down. ---

You ought to be thankful somebody took pity on your ass when that piece of shit clunker broke down yet again, you turd muncher!

I bet your co-workers really appreciate how often you either show up late for work or call and say you can’t come in because that assheap of a clunker you drive broke down again. Why don’t you quit being such a wanker and buy a damn decent vehicle! It’s people like you who drive up the cost of gas driving around in those foul odor emitting heaps that probably get what 50 yards to a gallon?
