School Boots Boy Over Jesus Costume



( Principal says costume was offensive and disrupted education process )

( Mum thinks her son's freedom of expression was violated )

( And now the commenters have a wing at it! Osama bin laden, Mohammed, murderers, ghosts, and prostitutes included! )

Needless to say Jesus was resurrected later on Halloween night to go trick or treating. Whoot!

'Tis the season, after all. Grabbed from wank_report

In the "craftgrrl" community, hamburgerhop makes a post asking for advice about her costume idea. People on the internet being intelligent, kind, civil individuals, respond that it is tasteless but provide the relevant information and then ignore it. Right?

First comment says....no.

Some highlights from the rest of the thread:

Person: You're an ass. Other person: Hey, about about some constructive criticism instead of name-calling? In the same thread: I was an addict and it's not worth sympathy, p.s. random race reference

Person: Not funny! OP: I know and don't care!

Person: Hey SF_drama. Other person: LOL GET A LIFE

Wank from a, sadly, deleted comment.

Why bother with PC? It's halloween!

Person: It's a parent's worst nightmare! Other person: So's being goth!

Various other miniwanks throughout the comments. Remarkably, the mod is chill with it.

Oh, and just for that little dollop of meta: name-calling in the wank report. It's cool, kids, I got this one.

edited because I can spell. Really. I swar.

Ah, infant formula wank. No, not the infant formula scandal. I mean the equation for surefire wank on Cute Overload:
human child in picture = OMG NOT CUTE EVIL STUPID BAYBEE
It's a pretty simple formula, but the results here are deliciously tainted with melamine.

It's another Asian infant chomping on a puppy. Racewank is happily avoided for the most part, though, so you can relax.

I can't go through all 256 comments right now, but here's a few skimmed off the top:

This one is probably a joke: Who will end up with the personality complex? The baby who didn't know any better and must eat puppy faces or the puppy who will forever need to be inside someone's mouth!

Well, thanks for justifying this with your ovaries: While I am female, I do NOT think babies are cute - unless they have fur and tails. The furless ones just grow up to hate you anyway.

According to my breastfeeding friends, it's a lot more than that: Babies sorta suck sometimes.

This is your chance for internet glory: Last I looked, CuteButNotBabiesOverload.com did not exist.

It's our responsibility as intarweb police!: Enough with the pudding comments. When the picture is obviously this disturbing, people have a right and a duty to comment on just how awful it is.

And here's the thread on the LJ feed. First comment is "in before wank". But we do have this lovely poem:
it is not cute
and it is not ok
the puppy is probably hurting
picture the cutest monkey holding your baby by the head
and then someone even bigger thaking a picture of it
the monkey doesn't know the baby is hurting
but it doesn't make it ok

And, for the sake of sanity:
But, for the hell of all you people who think that baby is messed up in the head, lets beat the hell out of the baby for doing what she knows to do, which is...

Edit: CO now has more than one poster and the poster of the above was actually "Not That Mike the Other Mike." Not to be outdone, Meg has upped the stakes by posting an image of adult human women. And filed them under "primates." Ahahahahahahaha. I <3 you Meg. (Wank, natch.)

More taxonomy wank, plz. Thanks to exit_chrysalis for linking us. (There's also people talking about BSG, Torchwood and Firefly in the comments; the wank streams have crossed!)

It's more likely than you think.

So, over at ugly_crap on LJ, the comm members amuse themselves by doing the equivalent of telling ghost stories: finding the ugliest/most tasteless products possible and snarking them. Most of the time, things are pretty quiet there - it's quite rare that commenters disagree with the OP's judgement, and when it happens, it's usually pretty civil.

But when moira_aoibheane posts these high heels for babies, things get a little messy.

We have accusations that commenters have no sense of humour, cries of misogyny, and your standard "This isn't funny!" "That's because you have no sense of humour!" "ZOMG U JUST INSULTED MY SENSE OF HUMOUR U H00R!".

And, because no wank would be complete without it: invocation of Godwin's Law for absolutely no reason at all!

Small, but tasty.

evilgrins delivered a list of bogus food terms to the food_porn community which was kind of amusing but the last definition...

arab coffee: Thick, black, bitter coffee, traditionally served in tiny cups at gunpoint.

...really inspired some, uh, debate.

likeawoman is accused of being likeatroll for staying determinedly offended by everyone but obfuscate brings up Godwins first. "If you replace "arab coffee" with "matzo" is it an insult to Jews? "Haggis" (I hear it's good, but what the hell.. who came up with that?), and it's a comment on how violent those damn Scots are? Put "borscht" in there and you're pissing on the Slavs? "Liverwurst" would then, I suppose, mean that all Germans are violent Nazis."

Nobody likes a laugh more than me. Except for my wife. And Mrs. Johnson.

Define 'Offensive.'

Am I the only one that likes Turkish Coffee?

Why the random-ass definitions anyway?

As a White Canadian Female, let me clarify things for ya'll.



See, this is why I drink tea.
