Time Out for O/T – Vol. 17

Indeed 🙂

I swear you beat me to it by minutes. I had just finished reading the story and flipped back over to post it.

Can’t believe anyone thought it was real with a HUGE Onion logo next to it. Go ahead and investigate it. Make yourself look stupider.

He is definitely the greatest living comedian.

Comedy is tough. Damn hard to succeed. Lot’s of people find something that works and they ride it for as long as they can. Like Larry the Cable Guy and that “Get’er Done!” horseshit.

Louis C.K. is like an old school comedian. Like Carlin or Pryor. There are themes to his comedy but it’s entirely new material every year. That is incredibly difficult! Dane Cook rode the same act for 5 goddamn years! Louis has had 5 comedy specials with 5 completely different sets. That’s almost unheard of!

And it’s always the funniest, truest shit you’ve ever heard. I love this man.

Congress Takes Group Of Schoolchildren Hostage: ‘We Need $12 Trillion Or All These Kids Die’

WASHINGTON—Brandishing shotguns and semiautomatic pistols, members of the 112th U.S. Congress took a class of visiting schoolchildren hostage today, barricading themselves inside the Capitol rotunda and demanding $12 trillion dollars in cash.

House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), who has emerged as spokesman for the bipartisan group, informed FBI negotiators this morning that the ransom was to be placed in stainless-steel suitcases and left on the Capitol steps by 4 p.m. sharp. If their demands are not met in full, the 11-term representative announced, “all the kids will die.”

“Bring us the money and we let the children go, simple as that,” said Boehner, appearing in the East Portico with a serrated switchblade held to one of the fourth-grader’s throats. “If you want to play games and stall for extra time, we’re going to shoot one kid an hour, starting with little Dillon here.”

I was just about to post the link to the Onion story.

One of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen. I love it.

John McCain and his Vegetable Friends

“No person, corporation or business entity of any type, domestic or foreign, shall be allowed to contribute money, directly or indirectly, to any candidate for Federal office or to contribute money on behalf of or opposed to any type of campaign for Federal office.”

So, how are they suppose to run for office? It’s quite expensive.

Won’t this just make it to where only rich people can run?

Am I missing something here?

And it’s troubling that people can get so far with such ignorance. Ignorance of history, facts, laws, and everything else you would want a politician to know.

I wonder if there was ever a point where she thought, “Ring! Shit! I should have said ring!”

Usually this is where I call you a nerd and go on about my day but that sounds totally awesome.

HA!

So what are you doing int eh Games Society? The other two are pretty self explanatory.

» Posted By ADONAI On September 28, 2011 @ 4:14 pm

Now, by societies do you mean clubs?

And by joined do you mean had Mountain Dew in their living room?

» Posted By ADONAI On September 28, 2011 @ 4:07 pm

Pretty much.

Every kid is different and that is why standardized testing fails. There is no single standard. There are people who learn faster than others, people with learning disabilities who never get help, people who can’t learn in the way other kids do. Some kids can be told. Some have to be shown. Some need a one on one approach,some are fine with little management.

We gotta change the way we teach and grade these kids.

I love that you censored the word crap. 😛

» Posted By ADONAI On September 28, 2011 @ 3:47 pm

Right?! I didn’t get it at all.

They’re high school kids. What lesson could you possibly be teaching them by doing this?!

» Posted By ADONAI On September 28, 2011 @ 3:45 pm

Don’t worry. The FDA just approved 15 new experimental drugs for sale that can fix that.

Most of them can kill you but shut up and take your drugs.

Em, It was a ridiculous thing to see. I got to the story after the interview had started so I don’t know if anyone ever brought up WHY these kids felt they had to do this.

There was a funny part to it though. In most of these cases students pay someone else to take the test for them. This happened here. A man in his 30’s, I believe, took the tests for everyone of them. Even the one female student.

No one caught it til WELL after the fact and the police had gotten involved. It seemed like major overkill. And that we were putting emphasis on the wrong thing.

And who tha fuck jokes and laughs about kids who just had their entire lives ruined?!! Fail them on the test. Make them take it again. But don’t give them a criminal record!

Saw them being led away in handcuffs. Couldn’t believe it. I’m assuming the two they showed were 18 or they couldn’t have shown them.

That first peeper spray video still makes me laugh my ass off.

And I don’t know which is worse, the video or my reaction.

Originally I was just going to go with “What a bunch of Bologna!”.

Meatloaf is delicious. That is all.

Don’t know why this made me so mad but it did.

Up in Nassau County some kids have been arrested for cheating on the SAT test.

The Nassau County District Attorney was being interviewed on CNN like she had just broken up a major crime ring.

And she sounded disappointed that the kids had to be treated as “youthful offenders”. Then she started giving her 2 cents about the education system and the sacred nature of the SAT test and how unfair it is to colleges and I just went off.

First of all, you arrested children for cheating on a test. You didn’t “take down a crime ring”. That’s pathetic. That’s sad.

And you wanna talk about unfair? The American education system is unfair. And then you put these kids entire lives into one meaningless test. A test that will define their entire life going forward.

And you think it’s unfair to the colleges?! She mentioned they had “mediocre” GPAs and that’s what tipped her off. Well, what did you expect them to do? Accept their lot in life? Accept a future of minimum wage and endless debt?

Did anyone care WHY they had mediocre GPAs? Hell no. Schools are a fucking assembly line. Send’em in and get’em out. And your answer is to lead away children in handcuffs and celebrate it on CNN like it were something special?

This country’s priorities are fucked up. We don’t care enough to help the children but we will destroy their lives for “breaking the rules”.

It’s a story that should lead to a deeper discussion of our education system but no one cares. Just more money for the prison system.

On ESPN right now is a documentary called “Catching Hell”

It’s all about the 2003 playoff game between the Cubs and the Marlins

And the “Bartman Incident”. Recommend it to any sports fan.

Now this is definitely unconstitutional no matter how you slice it.

But I also find it terribly amusing that being sent to church is a punishment.

The MSM can’t just cover every little protest that’s going on out there.

They’re only on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

You tell me where they’re suppose to fit that in? ‘Cause we gotta have that 15 minute piece about what everyone is doing after the Twilight movies are done.

This story is tough for me.

I’m torn between my absolute hate for authority

And my absolute love of Schadenfreude.

HA!

He’s totally not gonna murder anyone

That is pretty funny. Onion quality stuff.

I can’t wait to see what the Republican debate crowd boos next!

By the way, when Rick Perry says that socialized medicine has failed in America

Why does no one ever say Hawaii? And how is Massachusetts a failure? People are insured and they rank high in overall health. If money is a problem it isn’t the health care system.

Their economy is five times larger than Hawaii’s. Someone is just incompetent.
