...or has it gotten profoundly stupider around here all of a sudden? Like, super-sized special-blend jaw-droppingly stupid? With stupid sauce on the side?
Someone just told me to "tell it to the Jews."
Tell it to the Jews???
All day like this. All day.
I know I know I know I know, this is meta, no complaining about DU, this will get locked, I know.
But Jesus H. baldheaded Christ...nothing like a war to bring out the Epic Derp, I guess.
So there's this, from the archives:
"I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you are. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we know."

Seems appropriate.
Carry on.

(26,355 posts)Why didn't you know, the thing in Syria is EXACTLY like the Nazis gassing the Jews in WWII, and furthermore, the only way to stop the EEEEEVIL Assad, and protect the eeeeeeevil wonderfully good and pure rebels is for us to deploy our military and blow shit up!
Your logic is impeccable.

(4,185 posts)The conversation was about War. Not exclusive to Syria.
Furthermore, you and the rest is the Rush-to-judgement-tour think I'm for a war in Syria which couldn't be further from reality.
However, making a statement like bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity just tells me that the adults in the room are going to have to clean up after the kids again

No such luck.
