A Fancy 400 lbs posted:I posted this on Facebook and got this response: Here is another fun one. Though I wouldn't doubt both have been posted before.  Earth posted:If you're saying glass house because you think I'm stupid; on no, what's a guy to do when people on the internet thinks he's stupid?! Which is the very reason I'm not going to put effort into posting about that. I think some people here are stupid and it means nothing. Some people think I'm stupid and it means nothing. The only thing I've been thinking about recently (thinking about posting) is with regard to emotions making people unable to effectively analyze situations. Specifically with regard to certain topics on this board that turn everything to poo poo -- fat people, student loans, a republican said a thing, personal responsibility, engineer/STEM chat. These types of things put together an emotional response that just causes a person to throw all rationality out the window. I mean seriously, how hard is it to reach an agreement that being overweight is not healthy? But it just seems impossible to attain a consensus of that stupidly simple, completely obvious reality that being overweight is unhealthy. Edit: Though there are inherent problems with just taking pot shots at who you arguing with instead of trying to reason with them. Which is why I prefer not to call them idiots or overly emotional, as all it does is poison the well. CharlestheHammer fucked around with this message at 04:09 on Jan 27, 2013 |

Goons have just as poo poo opinions as people anywhere else on the internet but at least here it's hidden beneath a fine coat of proper grammar and some degree of moderation by the powers that be. At the end of the day there are still people that believe obesity owns and personal names are a means of societal oppression.

I used to know a heroin addict who had a huge, fuckoff tattoo of Robert E. Lee on a horse cresting a stone wall in some civil war battle on his wrist. I don't even know if that ever really happened, I think he had an artist edit a picture of Pickett's charge?

It's my dream to one day go to Richmond, Virginia (the city of my own birth) and steal the head from the Jefferson Davis statue.  That or steal the head from Davis' burial site statue.  Mmm yes, defender of the Constitution indeed. I haven't been to Richmond since I was 10, and reading about it now I'm reminded just how many Confederacy memorials there are.

I know a couple of people who have personally pissed on the grave of Jefferson Davis, because getting drunk in Hollywood Cemetery is a Richmond tradition, and also gently caress that guy.

The short version is that when the other regions of what is now Germany united in the North German Federation, Bavaria (and some other bits of what is now southern Germany) stayed out. They joined later to form the German Empire, but some Bavarians still maintain that they are not strictly speaking part of the German federation. There's also some debate over whether the last king of Bavaria actually formally abdicated, and whether Bavaria is still technically a monarchy. I should probably say that these are views mostly held by crazy people, those Bavarians who just like antagonizing the North, and the German equivalent of Libertarians. Incidentally, most countries in Europe have at least one regional independence movement. The UK has at least 4 that I'm aware of, and there are probably more.  The party logo.  Campaigning against the Bavarian smoking ban. They tend to rant on about the central government banning things.  Party Awards Ceremony. This is a serious political party, I don't know what you're talking about.
