Must have really hit pretty close to the mark to get him all riled up like that.

It looks like a "Too much Mountain Dew and Hot Pockets" episode..:) I hope he keeps his blood pressure under control. He could blow a gasket by 40.

you know, i should venture to that site more often, that was pretty entertaining.

comments are priceless, this one literally broke my bullshiat detector:

40 "something" business owning woman here, multiple degrees, MULTIPLE talents, and something of a "milf," or so say the considerably younger rock bands I've worked with over the years. Not sure if that's really a good thing in the grand scheme of things, but hell, I am 40 "something," so I'll take it! lol!

Anyway, I digress... ;)

Never played an online game in my life. Never played a multi-player game, never played a fantasy game, and have only been in basements when tornados threatened.

Held my first job at 14, moved out of the 'rents house at 16, signed my first lease at that age, without lying, never emancipated, simply proving myself to whomever in whatever situation. If you have ethics and integrity, even that young, it shows.

I've never seen a higher standard of discourse on any site outside of DK, tho' some come close, and that's just the intellectual side ('Course, that's a dirty word to you folks). The majority of the diarists spell properly, and use proper grammar, unlike the lunatic ranting on the right wingers sites, on which the spelling is amazing in its ineptitude.

Methinks you're doing a smidge of putting your own failures on others to redirect the conversation, ala ALL right wing arguments.

Good luck with that.

Cheers!

"Daily Kos" didn't rant.
One member ranted - not a staffer or big shot - and there are 506 comments in the thread so far, which isn't even significant for this huge website.

It would be just as stupid to try to denigrate all of Fark because of a single greenlight that was fairly well-attended.

Remember that thread a while back from the feminist saying that Fark hated women?

What if that member uncovered secret documents that said President Bush is smuggling heroin into the borders? Surely Daily Kos didn't break this story then, right?

Nope, as much as if I did it in this post wouldn't mean Fark broke it.

So, this Daily Kos website... it's anti-McCain, I guess?

Nicely done, I thought. Low and hateful in an almost Republican way.

She's 40 years old, has multiple degrees, has worked with rock bands, and is a MILF?

I'd do her on the hood of my Lamborghini. But not before I go to the gym in 26 minutes.

You're doing it wrong. You need to be insert random trademarked products that you associate with something. As in, you "MetRX eating, Burkenstock wearing, Volvo driving, Starbucks drinking, fag."

If you're going to be a judgmental douche, at least make sure to mock the types of products the other person buys.

Nothing wrong with enjoying a fag now and again. You'd be surprised how many Englishmen can barely go an hour without wanting to stick a nice hot fag in their mouth. Sometimes they lose count of how many fags they go through in a day. Maybe it's the taste or the warm feeling flowing down the throat, but there's just nothing like a really good fag to perk up your day.

I could maybe forgive a bit if it were written by a girl or woman fantasizing, but that passage just reeks of young, nerd male. Ew.

Its his act. He's famous for it on Fark. Why bother going out of character when that's what you are most known for?

Hell, Bevets entered a non-evolution/religion/atheism thread and told a joke, and people were shocked and didn't know what to do.

I actually remember when that happened. People freaked. I can't remember the joke though.

I was under the impression Bevets was a bot controled by Drew.. which reminds me, hasn't he been gone since that joke? That seems kind of susp --NO CARRIER--

I vaguely remember the joke thread, not the joke itself. But I think Bevets has posted since then. Not much, just a drive by athiest bashing now and then.

I know, it's such a shame, what with all the Fag Banning going around the west these days. Hell, I get yelled at if I'm spotted with a Fag in most resteraunts these days. Complete shame... Though I'm home now so I think I'll enjoy a nice fag meself.

So are these guys "ranting into the ether" or "ranting WHILE ON ether"?

Nitrous oxide is the gas of choice these days, but some people are pretty old school when it comes to inhalants.

Using these phrases - Fozzie Bear KY and posterior puppet pleasure palace in the same sentence - brilliant! Going off like that on a brainless goofball, and his senile employer - not nice. You should only have battles of wit with those who have wit.

Beck Bristow: The majority of the diarists spell properly, and use proper grammar, unlike the lunatic ranting on the right wingers sites, on which the spelling is amazing in its ineptitude.

This sentence has a few errors:

incorrectly used comma
broken parallel sentence structure ("diarists" and "ranting")
missing apostrophe
questionable use of the word "ineptitude"

I've posted worse on fark, but this is funny.
