Just goes to show that no matter what you do, some people are never happy and have to complain about everything. These people are generally known as assholes. When i was going on about god you weren't satisfied, you're not satisfied now...im starting to think that you're just a all around miserable person, and that the only reason you dont slit your wrists is to annoy other people.
And since i know better than to expect knowledge of recent world history from you, ill just try to skip over your comment about nothing of mention happening or i might just pass out and possibly die from laughter. Its a character flaw i freely admit to, i enjoy laughing at ignorant people, so of course you are a constant source of amusement for me.
Also, i dont make jokes about the holocaust because schindlers list was a bad movie, i make jokes about the holocaust (or anything else for that matter) because they are funny!
You seem to be as much of an ignorant cunt as you look. The funny thing is I don't believe in god either, but unlike you I don't jump at every possible moment to shove my opinion on the matter down people's throats, and mock anyone who believes differently than myself. It's a pretty pathetic spectacle to watch.
And the only interesting thing to ever happen in Slovenia is nothing.

Well this thread is mildly amusing.
I dedicate this post to the other 150,000 or so people who died on September 11, 2001. Now, if I thought that life began at conception, then I might need to raise that figure as high as 2,500,000, but I don't, so all those dead fetuses and embryos can go fuck themselves. Well, at least insofar as a mass of undifferentiated cells can fuck itself, as the case may be. To the extent that they can't fuck themselves, they can go to hell--metaphorically speaking, of course, since hell doesn't exist and, even if it did, they still couldn't go there because they already would be there, having arrived roughly ten years ago. Give or take a few days.
But I digress. The "Other 150,000" were a low-profile bunch. Their deaths were neither entertaining nor moving enough to warrant much mainstream attention. While their counterparts' deaths generated untold fortunes worth of economic activity, creating a massive windfall for those prudent enough to take advantage of those opportunities. Objectively speaking, it's an inescapable fact that the deaths of the Other 150K were worth less than those of their counterparts. If they wanted people other than their friends and family to give a shit about their deaths, then they should have gotten themselves killed more dramatically. I seem to recall that flying aircraft into large structures was a popular fad around that time; something like that probably would have sufficed. Fame and fortune were there for the taking, but the Other 150K chose to die in obscurity instead.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm grateful for that. The news coverage alone would have been a disaster. Based on my rough calculations, if all the Other 150K's deaths received, on average, as much related news coverage as their counterparts' deaths, then they would have consumed more than 99% of all news coverage in the past decade. They might have been able to squeeze in a short story about "Some Black Guy elected U.S. president." Maybe. Furthermore, if each of their deaths had facilitated the same amount of armed conflict as their counterparts', then it could have resulted in a death toll exceeding 30,000,000. Oh, and if fetal and embryonic deaths created the same amount of war and mayhem, we'd be looking at a death toll over half a billion--well, maybe less. At some point we might start running out of people to die.
So, the way I see it, we owe a lot to the Other 150K. By expiring without fanfare, they not only saved millions of hypothetical lives, but, among other things, they also made it possible for both my television and window to remain intact. I can't offer much in return. Any grief I might be capable of divided 150,000 ways does not amount to anything of significance. The best I can give them is equality. I can't give a shit about their deaths, but I can refrain from giving a shit about the equally insignificant ends to a few equally insignificant lives which happened to occur on the same calendar day as theirs. And that is the most heartfelt 9/11 tribute I can offer.
man this thread sure turned out swell.

| Originally posted by EddieZilker Who denied what? I'm having trouble understanding what, specifically, you're referring to, throughout your entire post. I can't even be sure if you and I might actually agree about any point you're arguing. You couldn't be less clear when you post things like, "...those are not the things which bring up questions." What questions are you talking about? |
wowzers.. this is some pretty graphic shit they used to prosecute one of the potential 9/11 hijackers.
