Humour VII

Just saw this post. Sorry for the late reply dude. Haha! It's true though. Especially with the sensitve war with Muslims it seems they don't want us killing brown people. Dude I just can't get through one of those games. I like Splinter Cell because it was calm and methodical, I could smoke a bowl and relax. Call of Duty and games like it are just chaos. It doesn't seem fun. Everyone that I know plays it only talks about how much it frustrates them and how angry they get. Fuck, I have enough of that on the subway.- Oni

Pfft. Don't lie. We all know Carlos Mencia is your favorite of all time.

Curse you in the name of Allah!- Oni

Also, women in uniform versus women in burqas? I'm standing to attention and saluting right now, if you know what I mean.Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

Oil sands death of hundreds of ducks in 2010 blamed on weather, no charges laid

The Environment Department released a report by a University of Alberta biologist Thursday that said nothing could have been done when an early winter storm in October 2010 forced the birds to land on the toxic waste ponds belonging to Syncrude and Suncor near Fort McMurray. Others landed on nearby roads and parking lots.
More than 550 birds, many of them covered in oily goo, had to be destroyed.

It seems that this is National Poetry Day, so here's one of my recent little squibs. It first appeared on the blog of the Digital Cuttlefish, which you should read.--- Through A Glass, DarklyI asked the preacher to expound
where in the Bible it is found,
and where in Scripture written
why evil flourishes, and why
when blameless children starve and die
still tyrants live unsmitten.He sighed: Alas! If we but knew;
but I am human, so are you:
a humble, mortal man.
We cannot see things through God’s eyes
or with his wisdom, know how wise
the workings of his plan.The ways of God are not our ways;
that’s what the Bible clearly says
(Isaiah 55).
We cannot know; God only knows:
the dead are dead because he chose
and those who live, alive.His thoughts are not our thoughts, alas!
We see as through a darkened glass
(according to St. Paul).
Don’t fuss yourself with asking why;
in Heaven, maybe, when you die
perhaps you’ll know it all.I thanked him more than once or twice
for all of his profound advice,
and made a careful note.
I have another question, then
I asked this humblest of men.
Say, how would Jesus vote?I’m glad you asked, replied the man;
he’s certainly Republican
and hates the Democrats.
He sheddeth his eternal light
upon extremists on the right
and doesn’t think they’re bats.I know for sure the great I AM
thinks global warming is a scam,
in every last degree.
He favors tort reform as well,
and has a special place in Hell
for those who don’t agree.Ye demons of the Left, despair!
His curse is on Obamacare
(he hates the Kenyan’s guts).
And woe to those who separate
in any way, the Church and State:
that really drives him nuts.Don’t peril your immortal soul
by advocating gun control;
that’s sinful, I’m afraid.
His hand is on the GOP,
and need I spell it out how he
interprets Roe v. Wade?He loves the rich, of that I’m sure
(when he said Blessed are the poor
that’s really what he meant.)
He hates the Mexicans and blacks;
he favors a consumption tax
of six point five percent.Ah, wicked and corrupt must be
those sinful folk who disagree,
and willfully obtuse.
So plain are all God’s thoughts and ways
that just as the apostle says
‘they are without excuse’.

I thought this a humour thread....number VII in fact.This was furthest from funny for me.
I didn't get the joke. Can someone enlighten me?

Sarcasm I guess. Not very funny but certainly a joke.If it is not laughable that some biologist convinced a judge that the weather was to blame then I don't know what is.Funny in a mad sort of way.Sorry to have fowled up the thread.

No problem. It really quacked me up!
