That's easy. You just might not be able to get your car out without getting several other to move first.

Precisely. Because one of those destroys lives and ruins children's minds while reaping massive societal havoc. The other one is a drug.

Which is which on Easter Sunday?

Which is which on Easter Sunday?

I went to Easter mass today with my grandmother, who is a devout Catholic, as a favor to my mother. It was the first time I had been to any mass in years. It took everything I had not to laugh during the service. I had to constantly remind myself that people actually believe this shiat and might possibly be offended if I chuckled condescendingly after everything the priest said.

It will be many many years before I return.

Screenshot or it didn't happen

I find it funny that lo on this Easter Sunday, I have cause to mention that hands down, the most brilliant parking attendant is named Mohammed and he works in downtown DC. In fact, calling him a parking attendant is an insult. He is a logistical parking genius.

Old and busted: headlines using the "old and busted/new hotness" cliche.

Only difference between "old and busted" and "new hotness" in this instance is that the "new hotness" actually happened.

STAR meeting prior to mass FTW!

Religion, is there anything it can't do (to amuse the sane people who find it really funny)?

Oh, they must all be good at Tetris or something.

We do this at our one parking lot at my highschool. There are 15 official spots, but I've counted 40 on some days.

Jeez.. So many real life Tetris addicts coming out of the woodwork!

It's past your bedtime.

Well here are some pictures and quotes from BUILDING RESURRECTED as church

Neighbors howled at the idea of a school at the end of Fieldstone Road, a dead-end cul de sac popular among hikers and drug dealers. They rallied, raised $10,000 to hire an attorney and vigorously fought it.

They said it was dangerous to build a school in a rockfall zone at risk to landslides and flooding.

They deemed it a mistake to build a school in a spot with limited access for emergency vehicles in the event of a wildfire or other catastrophe.

So they built the school, it went bankrupt, and then they turned it into a Nigerian led Anglican Church. I guess being inaccessible will make it hard for the gays to attack and abduct their men and children.

I think that 'hole in the wall' in the above picture is also known as a 'glory hallelujah hole'.

Just a scene from Office Space

/nothing to see here
//nothing to put here

See, it's 40 -marked- spaces. As long as it isn't one of those places where the marked spaces are as small as possible, you just park as if there are no marks (but considerately, not space-hogging...ly) and you create a lot of space in the process. Unless everyone came in SUVs and trucks. Can also just park everyone right up next to each other and hope they'll be patient while the people who arrived after them left. Probably took some of both. I would consider it an actual miracle if they'd packed 200 cars in that lot without damaging any.

/wish more people knew how to park so as to maximize space, instead of leaving spaces people with small cars might be able to park in if they could drive sideways
//why we have parking attendants at the zoo for special events

I am truley sorry for your lots.

If you look at Google Maps from which freedomblogging.com stole a copyrighted image without attribution, you can see a lot of dirt roads and waste land surrounding the militia compound. Surely they had people park there.

REALLY? What a stupid use of 'old and busted'. Not that there is a good use of it anymore.

Nothing wrong with this statement at all.. Hope you were being sarcastic.

As Benny Hinn would say, "It's a middacle!"

Colorado Springs Gazette comment that thinks there are 800 people in the congregation and disses Easter Sunday church attendance.

With an 800 figure, 90 cars is either poor church attendance or a clown-car spectacle - nearly 10 people in every car.

They used to do this at the old Memorial Stadium in Baltimore. There was essentially no parking there so they used the parking lot of a nearby high school and everyone parked bumper-to-bumper. After the game, if you were in the middle, you simply waited until enough people in the edges moved until there was a lane open and then you asserted yourself. If you had to leave in the middle of the game, you didn't. At least not with your car anyway.

Here's a picture of how it looked.

These people have obviously never been to a big concert. 90 cars in a 40-car lot is nothing - try 10,000 cars in a 4,000 car lot.

I'm just making up numbers, but it doesn't surprise me that the religious haters are eager to jump in on this thread.

That's cool...

But just a suggestion...it'd be less crowded if they carpooled or walked.

/The Jewish folks walk to the synagogue down the street near us and their parking lot is ALWAYS empty.
//Yes, I know, they're not supposed to drive on Saturday.

Juniper Jupiter: That's cool...

Umm did you read the clown car comment above? Also their millitia compound is secluded and not accessible to walking.

Thats nothing. living in indonesia i have seen restaurants just cram cars into parking lots. It is literally a game of tetris. Your asked to keep your car in neutral so parking staff can roll your car around to get others to leave. Or they ask you to move it for them.

Insanity....

Um, Hairbolus? Did you read MY comment? I did mention the word CARPOOL, too...or do you not know what that means?

/It's not always about YOU...it's mostly about ME! :P

I also attended mass yesterday with my elderly great aunt. I didn't laugh (wanted to soooo bad, but didn't), but she let out a loud snort that was heard by everyone when the priest read some bull shiat, poorly written letter from the bishop condemning gay marriage, birth control and secularism. She insisted on leaving that instant: "jamie, I'm not listening to this hatred, help me up". We were sitting in the middle of the pew, and caused a slight disturbance as we shuffled out of the pew. The priest stopped his spiel as we exited, and I was hoping that he would say something so I could rebut the stupid shiat he was saying. 88 years old and still a pistol. Very proud of her.

Another year and I failed to preform my easter duties. I guess I'm damned to hell. We then walked down to a diner and had a great breakfast.

Awesome pictures.

Meh, NYC has been doing this for years:

Which is good thing. You wouldn't want someone who didn't 'get' your lifestyle hanging out with you while you smoke pot.

There are so many groups out there you can bash, including ones with which you may be affiliated. If you think churches and the Bible are stupid, you really don't get what it's all about. It's not about brainwashing. I have many Christian friends who are doctors, lawyers, teachers, etc. -- people with high IQs. And, as in any large group, there are people who are not so bright. We are a part of a large supportive community -- it is enjoyable, and great thing to be a part of in times of need. Little factions of 15 people or so each telling a large cohesive group of thousands that they are stupid really isn't going to sway anyone away from being a part of a great group of people that happens to go to church together, so instead of griping about how stupid Christians are, why don't you do something constructive, like write your Congressman to tell him that you think that pot should be legalized, or some other cause that you actually may reap benefits from, instead of insulting a group of people who are just as nice as you are. There are so many Christians out there -- smart, dumb, liberal, conservative. Keep in mind that most advances in any field, including evolution, have been made by members of some form of the Christian religion. Not to take away from the religious aspect, but while you are smoking pot, I'll probably be riding my sport bike with some of my fellow Christian bikers, or going boating with fellow Christians, or playing Call of Duty 4 online with my Christian buddy who is a general practitioner (a medical doctor), or helping out with a fellow Christian who runs an animal adoption agency. I've got buddies that smoke pot. If pot is your thing, fine. If religion is your thing, fine. Until a bunch Christians start hassling your about your life choices, why don't you be as tolerant as you sound like you'd like to be?

We are all human, and comments condemning Christians are as bigoted as any racist remark. Atheists seem to be the new 'Southerners.'

Its not christian hate it is Don Armstrong hate.

The Rev. Don Armstrong used to be as an Episcopal priest at Grace Church.

There he 'misued' around a million dollars of church funds, doing things like having the church pay his children's college bills.

When the diocese began investigating he started focusing of the threat of gays and bamboozled some of his congregation to break away from the Episcopalian Church and declared his church was part of an Anglican sect run by a Nigerian anti-gay nutjob. This was an attempt to say his former diocese had no say on how he spent money.

He lost in court and the Episcopalians threw him out of his seized property.
