What’s the deal

What’s the deal….  I mean, given, I drink a lot, but- DO SO MANY PEOPLE REALLY TAKE THIS THAT SERIOUSLY??? (and not in the way that might stand a possibility of raising their consciousness a bit…) I’m starting to think that the world is divided into those who get the joke, and those who are woefully oblivious. I get the point, and it IS brutal, but the number of folks getting bogged down in the details is starting to seriously lower my opinion of the collective IQ of humanity… a LOT. I resign my membership in the human race… at least until the monkeys posing as humans decide to grow up. Samuel Clemens would be appalled….(all the way to the bank)

    So compare this with the amount of people who take a 2000 year old dead guy seriously, to the point where they deliberately falsify history, both biological and geological, just so they can have control over the masses.

    At least we admit to falsifying history.

    Couldn’t drink (because I’d forgotten to get myself off the roster for 6:30 the next fucking morning), our city couldn’t settle on one display, so we had three councils vying against each other trying to outdo themselves.

Try to restrict yourself to the selectors, and whoever came up with the *brilliant* idea of playing the exact same field placings in these Ashes as the last. Oh… and give Giles a few cartons from me.

    .
    I’ve a lot of sympathy for Tres. The papers slated him for lacking moral fibre and letting the team down by not going. Shit, half of the team should have had some of the balls he had. He knew he wasn’t up to it so did the right thing.
    Did you hear that Fletcher has publicly apologised? Good job I’m against Capital punishment or I’d be in the mob demanding blood :)

    Even so, it’s always sad when a cricketer gives up.

    Yeah. I met David Bairstow once. I’d just got the opening slot in the school team and my Dad took me to buy my first “serious” bat. A Saint Peter’s. Hand made job. Met David in the sales office. Poor sod!
    I’ve had a few beers with Vaughny too. At The SkyRack in Leeds (pub). He seemed a nice guy, not one to suffer from stress though :)

    Yeah. Mr D Fletcher is NOT a popular man at the moment.

    OK, here’s a lesson on the colelctive IQ of humanity.

    The average IQ is 100 (a bit less for USA). This means that 49.99999% of the world’s population has an IQ of 99 or less.

    Ergo, there are a lot of stoopid people, and in nations where they get the vote, unfortunately their opinions have an effect, and you tend to find politicians stoop to please “the bungled and the botched”.

    Sad, but true.

    I don’t think Inky gets it.
    He’s doing the “I get it: Bible is unbelievable nonsense. FSM is no more unbelievable. What does that say about the Bible? Yeah. Whatever. That doesn’t make you clever you know. Though it does throw the stupidity of fundamental Christians in to very sharp relief” argument.

    But he’s missed the point. The FSM is singificantly less unbelievable that the Bible and it’s moral guidance (whatever – just don’t fuck each other up – OK?) is far more compatible with modern society AND we have a graph.

    If Christianity, Judaism and Islam are some of the biggest religions in town, you really ought to start looking at the FSM because it scores higher in all categories:
    .
    Credibility
    Morality
    Grog
    Wenches
    Number of Graphs
    Scientific Backing
    Wenches
    .
    People talk about the comfort they derive from religion. But what comfort can be better than a nice cold glass of grog and the warmth of a good wench?

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American
