I Thought This Would Be Cool, But I Guess I’m Damaged

Via the Puppy Blender, a video of a “historic” Detroit hotel being demolished, as filmed by a drone.

Sound is really optional on this, it goes from annoying music to annoying drone-motor buzz, although you CAN hear the building go down.

Personal Note: When I was a kid, I thought building demolitions were awesome.

But now, almost 14 years after 9/11, I can’t watch this without a little ball of sickness forming in the pit of my stomach.

I have the same problem watching superhero movies where buildings get destroyed. Avengers was gut-wrenching for me.

Apparently I have scars.

Yes, Ayatollah. Do it to Me Again

If you thought the Iran Deal was bad, well, it seems more like a betrayal. My man in State slipped me some of the details that aren’t being reported in the media:

  • President Rouhani has openly begun referring to Obama’s negotiating style as “The Monica.”
  • President Rouhani was granted carte blanche use of Obama’s veto power and given the master remote to all the drones.
  • John Kerry will now be referred to as Caitlyn and must always wear a hijab in public.
  • Reagan’s grave will be moved to Tehran where Ahmedinejad may spit upon it with impunity.
  • Iranian officials will be allowed to make anytime/anywhere inspections of US nuclear facilities.
  • Israel was declared a nuclear-free zone.
  • On college campuses, women may not level charges of date rape without three additional witnesses.
  • Progressive restaurant owners will not be allowed to refuse to cater gay hangings.
  • The south wall frieze of Mohammad at the Supreme Court will be sandblasted and replaced with a carving of Obama prostrate before the Ayatollah.
  • Iran gets first dibs on all Planned Parenthood fetal parts.
  • The IRS will now be collecting a flat jizya tax from all non-Muslims on behalf of our Iranian overlords.
  • The hostages from the Iranian Hostage Crisis will be returned to Iran.
