Get Over It Day: Marine Tosses Puppy; Blogger Jumps; Eat More Whale; 9/11; Nigger
Today is National Get Over It Day.
So get over:
- Marines are trained to kill. At least I think they are. All I know about the Marines I learned from Full Metal Jacket and Gomer Pyle U.S.M.C. If a Marine throws a puppy off a cliff – get over it. They are trained killers. I want soldiers that are killers. No remorse.
“We think he may have already been dead, but we’re not exactly sure,” said Kristin Dejournett, a cruelty caseworker with the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, in a telephone interview.
- Blogging can kill. An advertising guy jumped off a building because of the snarky comments left on blogs. An ad guy that can’t take criticism? He had more problems than “When Blogs Attack.”
Recently, Paul Tilley, an advertising executive partially responsible for the McDonald’s “I’m Lovin’ It” campaign, killed himself amidst a trouncing on several industry-specific blogs.
- Whales need killing – Eat more whale, it’s better for the planet than raising other livestock to eat. Do chickens fart?
Greenhouse gas emissions caused by one meal of beef are the equivalent of eight meals of whale meat,” the study said.
- 9/11 conspiracy theorists – eh, so what if a bubble headed actor thinks we blew up the World Trade Center to avoid having to hire union labor to renovate it?
I think we’re lied to about a lot of things. It was a money-sucker because they were finished, it seems to me, by 1973, and to re-cable all that, to bring up-to-date all the technology and everything, it was a lot more expensive, that work, than destroying them.
- African – Americans calling themselves Niggers. They can do it, white people can’t. Referring to myself as a Cracker just doesn’t have the same panache.
If you’re a fan of Nas and understand what he’s trying to say, this video is difficult to watch; if you don’t really care about rap or postmodernism, at least you can enjoy seeing the lily-white reporter awkwardly discuss the MC’s shirt before telling him he’s wrong about hip-hop being dead (”Kanye’s up for eight Grammys!”)
- 39 year old men posing as school girls.
I came near the school because I wanted to show off my appearance, which was wearing the uniform, to the students of the school,” police quoted him as saying. “But some students (outside the main gate) who saw me started to scream.”
- Scientology is a religion – if they say it is. Just because most of the people in the religion are rich and famous doesn’t make it illegitimate. Otherwise Judaism would have to be reconsidered.
John Travolta is helping one of his Grease co-stars battle drug addiction – by introducing him to controversial religion Scientology. Troubled Jeff Conaway, who played Kenickie in the hit 70s movie, revealed the actor has given him a “library” of books on the subject.
So Happy Get Over It Day. Go out and make it a good one. Good night and good luck. That’s the way it is. Now you know the rest of the story. Courage. Stay classy San Diego. For all of us at NBC news, good night. Y’all pray for me
Sorry. The puppy thing is inexcusable if the puppy was still alive. I don’t care how many people the guy kills, rapes, or how many villages he pillages. Puppies are cuter than people, and people suck.
@The Absurdist: I think killing puppies is part of Marine training, but I may be wrong. Kitties are cute.
LOL about the “N” word thing. How come nobody gets upset when people insult white male Christians?
@Gretchen: Lack of creativity among African Americans. Get over it.
Good article thanks!
