"Worth Mocking!" "Is not!" "Is too!"
I know, I know, wank from [info]mock_the_stupid is like shooting ducks in a barrel of honey, but still-

A post is made, mocking a Ugandan AIDS education pamphlet for including what would seem to us to be really obvious information but apparently...isn't to them.

Many commentors think the poster has gone to the wrong place, and aren't really seeing anything worth pointing and LOLing at, considering the actual AIDS education situation in Uganda.

Mod Opalcat, however, isn't at all happy with the people criticizing her decision that it's mockworthy, and after arguing with a handful of commentors in aforelinked threads, posts a comments-locked modpost:

10:32 pm - MTS is not PC. And it isn't going to be.

If you can't live with that, please don't let the door hit ya.

The overkill PC whinging is really fucking tiring. We get it already. Get over it or leave. Honestly.


This brings more comments to the original post, mostly by people venting what they couldn't say in the modpost.

Of course, there are also others who think the mock is perfectly hilarious and are quick to call those who don't oversensitive PC pussies defend the post's merits.

Relatively small, but considering the modpost, I thought it had progressed beyond the clairvoyant stage.

Sorry, about the triple posts. The stupid system went wonky.

Yeah, I think the system's been hitting the special tea or something. ;)

Maybe it's just trying to commit suicide after listening to Rodney on Technobabble for the past two days. That'd do it.

I could listen to Rodney and Zelenka aaaaall day long.

And Ford. And Ronon. And Sheppard.

Possibly all at once?

*laugh* I could listen to Zelenka because he stays pretty much on track and doesn't detour at Exit 189. Rodney, not so much.

I could listen to Lorne, too. With that dry sense of humor and weary resignation of trying to get Shep out of danger...again. And Ford could read the phone book and I'd be happy. He's such a cute little golden retriever puppy.

Yeah, Zelenka's pretty reliable. Lorne...He can be a badass OR a painter!! :D

How about *sniffles* Carson? I swear, I have an accent kink.

Is that a Weimeraner? Also, I have ADD

Zek's just so funny all pissed off at Rodney, like a parent that really wants to smack the kid but knows it's not legal, sadly. Lorne's so badass. I wish he'd been in The Return, Part II. That'd been awesome. But in dress blues...yum.

*whispers* I don't like Carson. *ducks flying objects*

*laugh* I have no idea. I nabbed from some free photo site and made it my default here because I pretty much say that in most wanks.

Dun worry, I won't throw things. Why don't you like him, though, out of curiosity...

Yeah, wanks bring out my "O_O?!" face a lot..

I don't know. He felt forced into a lot of situations. He was best as a Zek type person that shows up when needed. He was never better than in the hospital. Outside, not so much.

Wank just makes me question the thought processes of some people. And then I laugh at their stupidness. Unless they're really far out, then I weep for humanity.

I've given up weeping for humanity. Makes my nose all red and puffy.

Happy Jonas!

*laugh* I stopped when I realized that people just keep getting dumber.

Everyone needs a Jonas icon.
