Stupid comments that need pitting

Increasingly its becoming easier to isolate yourself in groupthink, it’s important to challenge silly beliefs, especially in people you care about.

You say that, but I think you’re just trying to annoy liberals…

My favorite was ‘‘Ask them why they hate America.’’

Mine was “Pray in your car.”
If I’m in my car, I’m driving. I presume the same goes for them.

A few minutes ago I was on Facebook (enough said, I know) and came across the stupidest thing on a relative’s wall of mine.

“Tell them Osama is dead without proof of a body and they celebrate. Tell them Jesus died and rose without proof of a body and they speculate!”

At least it rhymes. That’s the only positive thing I can say. Now if this were a stranger on the street saying this nonsense, I wouldn’t care. I can even see myself laughing at them. But this is a family member whose intelligence I’m supposed to respect.

Let’s see. A terrorist we’ve invested millions of dollars in combing the world for finally, after more than 10 years, is reportedly killed by something as boringly commonplace as a gunshot wound. But for some reason this is…what? Worthy of skepticism or something? People are gullible to believe that this happened? Because no pictures have been released that could easily be the product of Photoshop anyway if someone was that determined to pull one over the masses? Okay, whatever.

But where’s the irony in people being happy about Osama being dead while speculating about the resurrection of an alleged demigod from thousands of years ago? Tell me yall, please. Help me understand the logic here. Is the death of Osama bin Laden equally improbable as a divine miracle?

I just deactivated my FB account. And I feel like a weight has been lifted.

But I don’t get the logic of deactivating your FB account. If the person told you this in person, would you cut off your ears?

If you’re driving, I’m praying.
Thank you! I gotta million of them. I’m here all week. Try the veal!

Why do we pray in the driveway but drive on the prayer-way?

[Doctor_Why]

@Gyrate

If you’re driving, I’m praying.

That’s only necessary if you’re on the sidewalk. Or in your front yard. Or in a pool.

Frankly, I’m more worried about how he’s an undead Cleric with Hide in Plain Sight.

Priests with rogues’ skills? That must be one of the D&D v3 or v4 perversions. V2 did an excellent job of keeping the major classes separate; I suppose the later versions made it possible for anybody to do anything.

Plus, if he’s an undead cleric with rogue skills, how come he didn’t have a minor heal spell on standby, preferably with Contingency on it? Where were his mooks, where was his Zerg Rush Defense, where was the combo trap of collapsing ceiling and spiked pit?

Sheesh. Some GMs have absolutely no sense of tropes. Who ran this adventure, anyway?

Does that mean ObL is going to rise from the dead? :eek:

Have you accepted Osama as your Lord and Savior?

A more appropriate analogy would be to cut off that person’s head, and yes, I would.

No Jesus, no Love.

Oh great. We got rid of bin Laden, only to have him replaced by Undead bin Laden. Worse yet AQUATIC Undead bin Laden.

I’d be okay with him crushed by the ocean depths, yet unable to die…
Oh, wait, that was Pirates of the Carribean.

That’s the thing. The amount of stupid stuff that people say to me in person is far less voluminous than what comes out on FB. It’s like people’s IQ slides one standard deviation to the left as soon as they post something there. Either that or they regress to the 5th grade.

But what if he’s a lich?

I hope they got his phylactery.

I have to check out Facebook now …

No politics, people are just reviving my withered crops.

[you_with_the_face]

Since we’re on the subject, Jesus and Osama do kind of resemble each other. And Osama was killed one week after Easter.

I’m kind of scared now.
