This is supposed to be funny, damnit! (gloria_mundi) wrote in otf_wank,

Good Old Fashioned Wank
Over in the Toronto Community, a call goes out for a return to "Old Fashioned" Values and forms of address.

A dogpile ensues as everyone tries to be first to call the OP an idiot and tell her why she's wrong.

Look out for another conservative jumping in to give support and promptly smacked down.

http://community.livejournal.com/toronto/3539600.html

Edit: Y'know, this reminds me of that girl who got wanked a while back over her conviction that the Purebloods of the Potterverse (ie Malfoy and their ilk) were "properly civilized" and refined.

	Damn, who'd've thunk that good manners and being civil was affiliated with politics. I guess I was wrong in it just showing someone was raised well. (Reply to this)

I hate it when Canada wanks; Canada is supposed to be a happy, magical place where gays marry at will and fluffy bunnies roam free and the streets are paved with chocolate, and it breaks my little American heart when something makes me realize that there are batshit insane rightwingers up there, too. Bitches are supposed to be our backup country for when Bush declares himself emperor and disbands the Senate.

And I swear, we usually keep the batshit chained up in the basement, like a good nation. It's only sometimes they chew through their restraints; honest, the exception to the rule!

I desperately want an icon of Emperor Bushpatine now, with him in a hooded robe, all red-eyed and shooting lightning out of his fingers. Hee!

Except that's way too cool an image for him, really. Fictional evil is always so much more fun than the real thing. *sighs*

Manners are connected with politics now?

Gee, no wonder so many people are surprised the first time they get into a political discussion with me.

(Manners are the bestest! People will be much more likely to tell what you want to know or do what you ask while they get over the slight shock that you started your request with "Excuse me, sir/ma'am, I was wondering if/could you possibly/do you happen to know/etc". Works every time.)

	"Good old fashioned values...on which we used to rely..." My mother insists that we address those to whom we are speaking, even if there are only two of us in the room. She also makes us use 'finished' instead of 'done'. Does anyone else have an English teacher as a mother? (Reply to this)(Thread)

Hooray for local wank. At least it's not about Paul Martin's attack ads.

If you were truly "old fashioned" and if you cared about manners, you would know that in public, you do not speak of things such as politics. Also, you, being a woman, wouldn't trouble your pretty little head with such man-centric ideas such as an election! These left wingers, how dare they give women the vote! How dare they give us universal health care!

And

crassy wins!

	Judith Martin has the same answer for the OP who thinks that only one political affiliation has the monopoly on manners, and the people who think that traditional manners means women are confined to the home. (Reply to this)(Thread)

I hate the Skydome and the CN Tower, too
I hate Nathan Phillips Square and the Ontario Zoo
The rent's too high, the air's not clean
The beaches are dirty and the people are mean

And the women are big and the men are dumb
And the children are loopy 'cause they live in a slum
The water is polluted and the mayor's a dork
They dress real bad and they think they're New York

In Toronto, Ontario!

	This entry on teh OPs journal just contradicts EVERY DAMN THING she says. I think people need a reality check. You can't pretend that you've lost weight just by wearing a the "smaller" size. It may make you feel better, but it's only for that one little momemt when you find out that you're wearing one or two sizes smaller. HAHAHAHAHA (Reply to this)(Thread)
