Rant for Holist

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Are you sure you're not from Georgia (the US Georgia)?

Well yes, quite sure. 

That's odd.  You sure as fuck act like a Georgia yahoo.

But, being not from Georgia or indeed anywhere near it, the reference is lost on me.

You exhort people to be more civil, then shit on them when they do, you backwards fucking redneck.

Well no. I found your rant's pessimism extreme (selfish, I know: when I feel that crap, I'm depressed and suffering and far from pugnacious, clearly not the case for you), so I asked about it. Then you went to town.

Translation: If you just SMILE hard enough all the world's troubles will just fade away. You may hear a slight buzzing sound.

This is why everyone at Arlington smiles.

It has been remarked on this board that I am not an upbeat person...And that I should change that.  Far be it from me to deny You People whatever it is you think you want, so here now I present the kinder, gentler Fidel (again, for what, the 10th time?):

I was listening in to the news on the way in to work this morning, and gosh, it looks like something, well, unpleasant might occur between Israel and Iran soon.  What's more, it might even mean that America might somehow get some yucky stuff all over its hands and its flag again.  I found this to be mildly distressing.  It's even possible that someone or some people might get hurt.

I mean, I'm not saying that we aren't led by reasonable men; this of course being the best of all possible worlds.  I am saying that perhaps they didn't really pay attention to each others' concerns as much as they could have, and maybe their Feng Shui is all out of balance.  Perhaps they could go to a chiropractor and see if there's any pressure on the organ that makes their decisions, and maybe get an adjustment.

At this point on my drive, I was passing through South Tucson, and I couldn't help noticing that the people down there are less furnished than in other neighborhoods that I have seen.  It's for the best, naturally.  Poverty builds character, which is why they are all noble.  My doctor told me this, while he was telling me how much to think this month, and what.

Once I got to work, it became apparent that my co-workers have made some less than optimum decisions.  When asked about it, they became somewhat irate or even upset about the situation.  Perhaps they need some rolfing or maybe a colonic.  In any case, I decided to go with the majority.  What could go wrong, in this best of all possible chemical refineries?

My doctor says that this outlook is much healthier for me, and that I should continue it.  He also gave me the GREEN pills and the YELLOW pills and took away the RED pills, so that's a good sign.  And injustice is so wearisome and depressing.  I'm sure our elected officials will get things sorted.  That's why we hired them, right?

That's all for now,
Man Yellow

Facetious troll is facetious.  TEND 2 YUR GARDEN MOAR!

I don't like this Roger. I want the other Roger back. It is more obviously dangerous.

What the fuck is it with these new age hippies/Pagans/holistic gasbags?  First they want you to behave, so you behave, then they get all fucking nasty about it.

Fuck Holist.  I've written him off as anything other than my personal commode.

I hate them. Because I'm actually into a little alternative stuff (TCM and the like, not Dr. Macadangdang's Magic Astrology Buttwipes) and sometimes I don't even want to mention it because I'd be assumed to be THAT WAY.

Yep.  Not only that, but they're helping the right wingnuts march us back to the dark ages, with both A)  superstitious claptrap, and B)  giving the right a big fat brush to paint the rationalists with.

So, yeah.  What's not to hate?

Yeah. It's kind of like PC.

Correct original motorcycle: "Let's not use slur words and stereotypes anymore. It's wrong."

Zealots run with it: "Let's RAMP IT UP and nitpick and get in peoples faces about it and be really annoying."

Reaction: "Fuckin librul PC police, I got free speech, Imma say ****** as much as I want. ****** ****** ****** ****** ******!"   

I guess when you pull a pendulum way over to one side, it swings way over to the other side and then comes back and whacks you in the teeth.

I don't much like the new Roger.  He GRINS too much.  He has teeth, you see, and what's more, he has more than are actually necessary for any legitimate/sanctioned use.

Everyone is Roger in their own way.


I Roger through puns.


What?  You thought I subjected you all to puns out of love?

[The Good Reverend Roger]

It's because I'm contagious.  Like herpes.

Then don't bitch about the Roger^TM. There is a finite supply of them, and the factory had a series of unfortunate incidents, forcing its closure in the 1897.

[Dildo Argentino]

Okay.

See?  This is what I'm always on about.  People ask for something, and you give it to them, and they bitch about it.  You said, in short, that Roger was being too Roger.  So I took some Roger away, and now you don't like THAT, either.

Some people would complain if you hanged them with a golden rope, I fucking swear.

Not for very long though, unless that golden rope broke, no?

Perhaps he left to go post in the best of all possible threads?

Whichever thread you are in is, or course, the best of all possible threads.

Why do I suddenly feel like I'm in an 18th century satire...?
