I would give money to a homeless man who was carrying around a giant rear end and rambling about duckcalls.

That's not a homeless dude, he's a redneck who makes decoy ducks on some history channel show. I'm guessing he never talked about putting duck calls in to somebody's rear end, though.

Y'all sick of politics yet? I have some fun news.

My sister, who is a lovely if slightly needy person, showed up in the last Facebook thread for her endlessly indecipherable passive-aggressive FB posts. Well, Friday she announced her engagement to a man she really loves.

...I was just there in December, and there was no mention of any man. I don't think she even met this guy until January at the earliest. I remember some vague stuff about a boyfriend early in the year, then sometime around February she was passive-aggressively posting about some guy dumping her, then she got back together with him and now she's engaged, and has been for two weeks. So, if we do our FB stalking and our math correctly, they got back together sometime around Valentine's Day, got engaged at the beginning of April...six weeks to an engagement? Say what now?

Oh, and she's 37 with two kids. I can't WAIT to see how this one turns out. I haven't even congratulated her yet because when I do I want to be sincere about it, and I'm not there yet.

...This is the same sister who constantly posts someecards about how fat girls are better than thin girls and if you're not tattooed from head to foot it means you're boring and uncreative. I've told her repeatedly that as a thin, non-tattooed girl this hurts my feelings and if I'd posted about how gross fat tattooed people are it would hurt her feelings, but apparently it's "not the same thing."

I love my sister, but goddamn.

I had to finally unfriend someone on Facebook after she decided to make it known that she hated the marriage equality vote going on, changed her avatar to a picture of a male and female symbol just to get her point across (since there were all those people with the red "=" sign avatars) and then said "I am praying for this" along with "The Bible says marriage is between a man and a woman!!"

I forgot to take a screenshot of it since the old thread died before I could.

I didn't think I could hate this sentiment more, but that 1% poo poo really puts it over the top.



If I didn't know that the person who posted this was fairly liberal leaning, I'd be worried that this was a swipe at lesbian couples having children and not just the most banal sentiment ever.

My friend's boyfriend has always posted all sorts of pro-marijuana crap. (I'm not anti-pot, I think it should be legalized, but don't spew garbage science and expect people to believe that marijuana cures absolutely everything.)

He recently started posting about GM food, and now fluoride.

This was his first fluoride post and I wasn't sure if was a joke or not.

Given the large number of subsequent anti-fluoride posts, I've determined it was not a joke.

Because there's no such thing as dosage...

I'm so happy this thread is back. :)

Ever since antagonizing my token conservative proud-of-my-horrible-opinions acquaintance to the point where he unfriended me, I've had a lot less stupid clogging up my feed. But I do have this one girl that I knew from high school posting more and more poo poo along these lines lately



Who is this aimed at? If it's some sort of message to someone in particular, why post it publicly? ...if it's not for someone in particular, why post it at all?

I've had to filter out several girls I knew in high school and one of my aunts because they each post a good two dozen images like that first thing every morning.

Most of my Facebook friends are fairly reasonable, or at least quiet, but sometimes they just come out of nowhere with poo poo that makes my blood boil. The first guy was our Guard unit's token lower enlisted outspoken Democrat but he got a high paying job in the financial industry and went into full "gently caress you, got mine" mode.

The second one is infuriating because I'm an immigrant myself and whenever I call people out on bullshit anti-immigrant rhetoric (whether it's people back home in the States or here in France) they get really mad and say I should agree with them because I'm "one of the good ones".

He's very right wing, hates the poor etc. Almost tempted to make a "free market lol" reply but not worth the effort.

He posted it an hour ago, Im not sure when the bombs went off exactly but it was pretty much right after it happened. Not the only dumb poo poo he's posted.
And yeah I've been meaning to unfriend him and a few other people, this might just motivate me to do so.

Because if it's one thing we know from history, concentration camps always take the time to put their hundreds of thousands of dead in nice individual plastic coffins for burial. Easy, cheap and practical!

Not a single rude or racist remark. Except for a few people reposting poo poo like Alex Jones and that Fox News dude who tweeted that all Muslims should die, just to call them out on how horrible those people are :smith:
