Sidelined rules PC offside
Sidelined
message #1
Cartoons and terrorists.
Proposed new topics
Sidelined outlines the pathetic emphasis on political correctness in a certain country, by expounding upon the intellectual bankruptcy of the ardently religious, whom think the world is out to get them and their profit, ahem........prophet.
This part amused me;
Sidelined writes:
First,Is there some drug induced coma that leads you to think that a cartoon that is insulting to the prophet is somehow going to be misunderstood and therefore worsipped as an idol? Are you so bereft of reasoning and constructive thought?
Forgive my use of the meme-word, freedom, but like that great tyrant over the pond has touted, "thank goodness for freedom". But never mind freedom of religion, how about freedom from it!
I declare that I have not named any specific deities or religious groups in this post. Forgive my ambigous use of grandiose efforts at poetically valid articulation. All retaliatory incumbently-based reasoning on your part, is rendered null and void pending evidence that I am partaking of antagonization by means of specific literature. I hereby plee via honourable decree, that I have full validity of a poetic license, untill atleast two thousand and twenty three.

Re: Hey
I can't believe you didn't get a nomination in so long.
No really though, to get a POTM, all one needs is a moment of cleverness IMHO. The ant on the rubber strip, thingy, seemed like a clever way to teach the layman. I would normally be too scared to even read anything in the Cosmology section.
--------
Ned's right though Percy, many POTM-worthy posts don't get nominated. I think it's probably because not many get involved in nominating.

Message :#11
I was very impressed by Crashfrog's post. I suspect most of his posts are quality, but I'm a lazy reader lately. He seems to have me consulting the dictionary every time I read him.

Re: Crashfrog's articulate post
You're probably not missing all that much, honestly.
Another modest one here Percy.
