Abortion Debate / Satire Wank
Over on the March Together for Life blog, Pete misses the point of an article from The Onion:

Miss Weber, you have killed your child, which you admit is a baby/human being, intentionally. That does make you an admitted murderer. I'm not going to "condemn you to hell", I'm going to pray for your forgiveness and for the suffering which you will endure when you realize what you have done. Every baby you see from that moment on is going to wake you up to the realization that you killed your child.

Miss Weber is, of course, a fictional person in a newspaper devoted entirely to satire.

People comment, letting him know what they think of people who take satire seriously.

Funny enough, but he decides to respond to those who told him the article was fake:
"Either way, I think I did a good job of turning the “satire” right back at them, don’t you?"

Survey says? No.

Yet another person defending their not-getting satire by claiming theirs was a satiric reaction.
Pete, don't listen to these negative voices,
Everyone has buttkissing fanboys now, don't they?

Ha ha, people are posting snippets of 'A Modest Proposal' in the second comments. Awesome.

"And in your banner, is the sentence "We will end abortion through our unity and the Monthly Call for Life" a reference to a period? Serisouly, I didn't not know that the shedding of my unterine lining was actually a pro-life rally. I'll let my right-wing fallopian tubes have it later."

I can attest to this. My ovaries have the confederate flag tattooed on them.

I'm pro life, but sweet Jesus you're an idiot. For your next post, how about a passionate speech on the need to immediately free Prince Albert from the can?

Good God you're dumb! Seriously, how do you figure out how to turn on the computer every morning? Does someone do it for you, or do you try to type a post on the coffee maker first?

A quote of a quote on another post:

So why do many liberals believe that it's okay to kill someone who kills animals, believes in war to challenge evil or digs up a forest for lumber.

Bzuuuugh? Liberals WANT war and deforestation?

Yaknow, I'm seriously considering that "March Together for Life" might itself be a parody/MsScribe-style strawpuppet blog. I mean, does anybody ever leave supportive comments there? Only enraged pro-choicers ever seem to reply.

(by the way, how come the spellchecker doesn't recognize "blog" as a word?)

Its semi-retarded people like you that make the world go round. Now stop blogging and get back to your job as an elevator operator. Just remember, its so nice being an epsilon level citizen, without having to worry your noggin about thinking mans problems.


Oh, snap with the Brave New World zing. Too bad the target totally won't get it. XD

My favorite is from Ben:

"Either way, I think I did a good job of turning the “satire” right back at them, don’t you? "

Short answer; no.

Long answer; no.

Dig up, stupid.

Now it's on Digg and rising.

But wait, there's more.

Thought this might end up here. It's hard to believe that this guy is serious, I mean if he digs himself much deeper he's going to wind up in China. But judging by his other posts he's not kidding.

He's moved his blog, but COPIED THE STUPID WITH IT.

How do I know? He replied:
I moved! And you can't comment!


Maybe some of you should have been aborted. (Although it stinks of troll)

aaaaaaannnnnnd: he's posted again, on Wednesday, still fighting the same battle.

Favorite comment so far:

Dude, look up. If you see a little circle of sky surrounded by darkness, that probably means you're in a hole, and you might want to stop digging. Just a suggestion.

The comments have been lost to the ether because someone posted his home phone number and address. I think it was wrong of them to do so, but Pete did post a picture of "Miss Webber" without her permission so he should shut up and deal with it.

Also, he's saying it was a joke. Yeah, sure, Pete. It was a joke. RIGHT.
