What the hell is this? I am literally without words to describe this. "Do not fall into the easy trap of mourning the loss of U.S. lives." Sweet Jesus.

  • Schwaumlautyou might want to look a few posts down at Sullivan's FPP. And be glad you don't have internal memos from CNN and ABC and CBC and NPR and um the rest of 'em because it would for sure make your head spin.
  • "What the hell is this? I am literally without words to describe this." You're SURPRISED??? Then you haven't been paying much attention for the last couple of decades, and you sure mustn't have read very much. Don't read this as an insult to your intelligence; take it as a cynical observation from a person who has been crying out in exactly the manner that you have just done for many years. And I have no doubt that there are other, older cynics than me, who regard even my horror as the latecomer-neophyte howl of recognition. God help us all.
  • So that's one Sweet Jesus and a God help us. Would anyone like to raise it to a Mother Mary & Joseph! or perhaps a couple of Hare Krishnas?
  • How 'bout an, "Ia Cthulhu ftagn"?
  • Buddhabuddhabuddha getyer redhot buddhas riiiight here.
  • Bashi be merciful.
  • Surlyboi wins. IA!
  • Figures.
  • You are all educated stupid.
  • That's a seriously fucked up metaphor.
  • Surlyboi is a blasphemer! Azathoth is the one true whatever!
  • But Nyarlathotep doesn't want us to realize that. Ia!
  • Shub-Internet will eat us all. Iä! Iä! Shub-Internet! Black goat of the web with a thousand hosts!
  • You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile. We are Borg.
  • You will all perish in flames, subcreatures! Gozer the Gozerian (also known as Gozer the Traveller, Gozer the Destructor, Volguus Zildrohar, Lord of the Sebouillia) will destroy all of you. He will come in one of the prechosen forms... During the rectification of the Vuldranaii, the Traveller came as a large and moving Torb. Then, during the 3rd Reconciliation of the Last of the Meketrix Supplicants, they chose a new form for him... THAT OF A GIANT SLOAR! Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you!
  • Can it be I wasn't the only one to memorize that rant when I was a kid?
  • "Back off, man. I'm a scientist."
  • "That's a big Twinky."
  • Okay, that's bad - thanks Igon.
