I wrote a nice little post about how everyone loves IMAO (I even got an e-mail from a liberal today who enjoys IMAO), but then I found this comment (edited for language):
This website SUCKS!!! What a bunch of sick ronin you all are. I HATE neo-cons! Your gun worshipping is revolting. Go blow away each other in your self-righteousness. Keep a handgun with you at all times! Shoot first and ask questions later, just like dick(head) cheney did while quail hunting! Go blow up the rest of the world, go nuke them to prove how “bad ass” you really are. Yee-haw! Then kill all the liberals, kill all the socialists, kill all the Europeans (because they aren’t into “intelligent design” and still prefer science (you know–the science that brought you the internet…your PC…you Mac…your chemo-therapy if you ever had cancer…etc). I just don’t get you people. I think you are ruining my country. There is SERIOUS division in this country now. I think it will only get much worse in the years to come.
I’d respond to the substance of this comment, but IT’S ALL TOTALLY TRUE!
Still, this person seems unhappy. People should be happy. You, Mr. Liberal, need to be more happy. Find a grassy field on a sunny day and spend the afternoon chasing butterflies. After that, you come back and comment again. I’m sure your comment will be much more happy and make us all happy too. Then the circle of happiness goes on!
Remember, ronin, many liberals out there are just in need of a hug, so go hug them and make them happy.
IMAO accepts no responsibility for hug related mishaps. Anyone who takes advice from Frank J. is doing so at his own risk and against the advice of about any lawyer.
Frank, are you sure you didn’t make that comment up? The whole “ronin” thing seems like a giveaway.
Oh, and FIRST!
That’s the edit for language (that’s where ronin first came from – me putting it in the place of vulgarity in hate mail). The unedited comment is still with the original post.
Frank,
Don’t sweat it. This was probably written before this person was able to refill his perscription for medical marijuana.
Frank, we need your help being happy here in Mountain View. It was below freezing at sunrise, and nearly everybody is sad. Come quickly! Be funny! The butterflies are frozen! I’m running out of exclamation points!
Jim,
I’ll do my best. Just give me a sec…
“Go blow up the rest of the world, go nuke them to prove how “bad ass” you really are. Yee-haw! Then kill all the liberals, kill all the socialists, kill all the Europeans”
Gosh…some really good suggestions. Should get started right away on this or wait until tomorrow?
I think I need to read Everybody Loves Cheney again, and I’ve got some clothes to wash, so let’s put off nuking the world until tomorrow. But then, definetly, I’m ALL for it!!! YEE HAW!!!
Would it be okay to hug all those unhappy liberals with nuclear arms?
Finally, a dirty hippie commie leftie with some good suggestions. I say we shoot first and ask questions later, kill liberals, socialists (isn’t that a bit redundant? Didn’t we get them all when we killed the liberals?) and Europeans and then nuke the middle-east. after all, it appears we finally have liberal approval for doing that … and that’s all we were waiting for, approval of the enemy (or is that enema?)
I’m happiest when I’m bust a few out of my 1911!!!
BTW Frank SarahK rocks the t-shirt and gun bit WTG
yeehaw!
//Remember, ronin, many liberals out there are just in need of a hug, so go hug them and make them happy.//
You gotta be careful hugging one of these guys though, since they don’t bathe, the slime from their paranoid sweat will stick to you for weeks. Also they may attempt to sue you for “invading their personal space”, you know how lawsuit happy they are, ACLU and all…
I’m all for making people happy but the only liberal I can bring myself to hug is my sister. (She bathes daily)
” Keep a handgun with you at all times! Shoot first and ask questions later, just like dick(head) cheney did while quail hunting! Go blow up the rest of the world, go nuke them to prove how “bad ass” you really are.”
Well, it’s a start.
I would love to hug some liberals.
Please come see me at your local zoo – look for the sign reading “Ursus arctos horribilis”.
Your gun worshipping is revolting?
I thought we worshipped Jesus or maybe Bush. I’m so confused now.
I think you are ruining my country
Ruining it? You’re the progressive, buster. We conservatives are trying to keep it from being changed.
And if its your country why don’t I see your name on it?
What’s wrong with medical marijuana? That would make you happy and less likely to go on angry tirades, anyway.
Your country? Take a look at who has all the guns and then tell me again who’s country this is…a-hole
But it’s all totally true!
ROTFLMAO.
Best response ever to an asshat.

“you know–the science that brought you the intenet…blah blah blah…”
I thought Al Gore did that…
AlanABQ, are you suggesting Al Gore designed the world?
Couldn’t be, because the theory is entitled “INTELLIGENT Design.”
you gotta admit, that guy had some great ideas.
so if he hates this site…. why is he here?????
Oooooh….I read the original comment. You’re right, he didn’t say “ronin”. He’s bad.
AlanABQ, are you suggesting Al Gore designed the world?
Couldn’t be, because the theory is entitled “INTELLIGENT Design.”
No, U.H., I was merely remembering Al’s statement years ago that he was (somehow) responsible for the internet.
“the Europeans… prefer science; you know–the science that brought you the internet…”
Not that anybody who visits this site need be reminded of it, but the internet is based on the TCP/IP Protocol suite developed by the US military during the Cold War. Not by European science, and certainly not by European communism/socialism – by the good old American Christian Capitalist ethic.
NUKE THE LOOON!!!!!!!!!
Ok, I’ve re-read Everyone Loves Cheney, had a good laugh, and washed my clothes. I’m ready to get started on this nuke the world bit. I say we start with Europe first since Europeans are both liberal and socialist. It’s hitting three birds with one stone (or two quail and one friend for Cheney).
So who do we call to get this under way? Rumsfeld or Rove?
I apologize that some people in my party are outside the realm of sane and have no sense of humor. I have enjoyed this blog because it is funny even if I don’t always agree with the politics.
Ursine: Actually I’d say that the ARPANET infrastructure was more the product of the Roosevelt / Truman / Kennedy / Johnson Democratic Party. (Alongside the Eisenhower / Nixon faction of the Republicans who really weren’t all that different.) They believed that Big Public Works were the way to safeguard America. They treated capitalism as good for providing luxuries, mainly, but were happy to raise taxes for all manner of social programs. (Not all of which were bad; I do like me some inter-web and all those weapons were kick ass.)
And as for Christianity, that was just something the rulers of the day made a fuss over to keep the masses in line. Boob bait for bubbas. Most of the big scientific discoveries were made by agnostics and (especially) Jews.
Pedantry aside, your problem, I think, lies in a mistaken projection of today’s partisan divide back into the 1940-1966 WW2 / early Cold War era. Remember that the Democratic leaders were on our side then…
Knock it off, patrick. You know it’s no fun when a liberal is acting reasonable. If you enjoy the blog, just keep it to yourself.
Keep thinking, though. We’ll get you someday. Mwahahahahahahahaaa!
“Shoot first and ask questions later, just like dick(head) cheney did while quail hunting!”
Is Cheney trying to eliminate all former Vice Presidents or Just Danny?
frankj, you should just say, “raise your hand if you have a patent.” what was that for again? some science-y engineering thing right? oh and did you get one of these? the place i’m currently temping at is lousy with plaques.
And I’d still rather hunt with Cheney than go driving with Ted Kennedy.
Patrick, you can’t be liberal and act calm and civilized while trying to say something in a way that doesn’t make you look like a complete a-hole. It goes against the natural order of the liberals on IMAO.
I’m Thinking Pat’s a Democrat, NOT a liberal…think of Zell Miller…there ARE conservative Democrats out there…

HahHAhAhhaha~!!
(My sentiments exactly.)

*Gun Worshiping
*Keep a handgun with you at all times
*Shoot first, ask questions later
*Nuke the rest of the world
*Kill the Liberals
*Kill the Socialists
*Kill the Eoruopeans a third time
*Fix the division in the country by killing the liberals
