A Few Things to Get Off My Chest
Man, that Mandela tirade pissed me off. He's supposed to be a respected statesmen, but then he gravely insulted all of America with a bunch idiotic ramblings that make some of our peaceniks look sane. I mused how I wished the Whitehouse would respond, but the actual thing Ari Fleischer said was just some bland statement about how people think differently on these issues. I know one is supposed to be diplomatic, but I think this was cause enough for some righteous indignation. Mandela should have no respect by the U.S. after being that loony, and we, the American people, should be calling for his head. Also, I hate the word "meme." I can't describe why; I just do. I've hated it ever since I first saw it. I tried to use it once to try and fit in with the cool blogging crowd, but then that just made me hate myself. It's a stupid word and I hate it. That is all. 12 Responses To "A Few Things to Get Off My Chest"
wheeeew someone had an extra bowl of looney krispies this morning : ) love your sight though #1 - Posted by: DonWaune on January 31, 2003 01:50 PMSo, would that be a sort of Anti-meme meme? #2 - Posted by: Tony hooker on January 31, 2003 02:05 PMAt http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/133900.stm we learn that Mandela was born in 1918. At http://popejohnpaul.com/Biography.htm we learn that the Pope was born in 1920. Mandela's old and busted. #3 - Posted by: Ed Flinn on January 31, 2003 03:02 PMFrank's right. The blogging world needs to drop the solipsism already and stop saying MeMeMe all the time. That's SO 80's! The 80's were the "Me" decade, people. That's two whole decades ago (nearly Frank's whole lifetime!!). Stop thinking only about yourselves and drop the MeMeMeMe usage to a dull roar. --Me #4 - Posted by: Roominator on January 31, 2003 03:54 PMBe nice to Nelson - he probably got hold of some of those generic drugs South Africa is making. See what happens when you try and screw around with the drug company's secret recipe? Just wait - they'll try to rip off Coca-Cola and end up blowing Johannesburg off the map. #5 - Posted by: aelfheld on January 31, 2003 05:23 PMMandela the commie should look up the fact that his form of gov't has killed more people than any other form of govt.............Memedela #6 - Posted by: General George on January 31, 2003 05:55 PMThe word 'meme' does sound weird and half baked to me too but it does carry a meaning that is not easily captured by other words. I use the word only for thinking. BTW - have you every tried enumerating the words you use to think? Try it. You'll be surprised how few words your thoughts are structured on. The exercise above is only for level-three geeks. I hate "meme," too. I've posted some possible reasons here. #8 - Posted by: Oscar Jr. on February 1, 2003 10:52 AMWell, I suppose Ari couldn't have called Mandela an insane Communist who screwed up South Africa & should have spent more time at home dealing with his thug-ette ex-wife. Shame though... #9 - Posted by: Craig Ranapia(OtherPundit) on February 2, 2003 07:11 PMOh, and before Mandela starts throwing around the word 'holocaust' could he send President Mbeki to AIDS 101? #10 - Posted by: Craig Ranapia(OtherPundit) on February 2, 2003 07:13 PMLOL, I hate my mother-in-law aka ME ME! I typed in I hate MEME and this site came up. Post a comment
