I got like three sentences into that and my eyes went all blurry–and I’ve War And Peace. Well, started.

Figure out where I meant to put an italicized ‘finish’ and win a prize!
May 17, 2011 at 11:46 pm
I think I found it…
I got like thfinishee sentances…

Okay, I’m confused. It’s okay to offend Christians, but not people who are handicapped? Is she being sarcastic or is she really that stupid? Way to practice what you preach, lady.
May 18, 2011 at 3:45 am
Enough people honestly believe it’s perfectly fine to insult someone as vilely as you like as long as they are:
Christian, white, and preferably male.
(Please note that any combination of the above is okay, unless they are of anything deemed “untouchable”.)
May 18, 2011 at 8:44 am
She’s simply saying it’s okay to offend people who have most of the power in society, but it’s not okay to offend people who have little power, or are marginalized. You won’t really harm Christianity, the majority religion in this part of the world, by making fun of Christians. It’s similar to the “pick on somebody your own size” argument, and I’m totally okay with that.
FWIW, I’m a white Christian male. I’ve got a perfect score on the “power flower.” Feel free to thumbs-down me straight to hell. It won’t hurt.

>You won’t really harm Christianity, the majority religion in this part of the world, by making fun of Christians.
>Implying if you make fun of some other religion/group, you will somehow do major ideological harm to an abstract collection of people.
Do hipsters count as a minority group? If so, why haven’t we insulted them out of existence yet?
May 19, 2011 at 5:25 am
For what it’s worth, I didn’t thumbs you down.
I don’t think any group or religion should get a ‘pass’ and any group or religion should be a target either. Ie: No one’s untouchable just because they are in a group and no one should be targeted for being part of a group. No one is more okay than another.
One should always be fully responsible and use common sense when they sling arrows in the name of bile and/or humor and not hide behind it is or isn’t PC to make fun of someone.

I’m waiting until we make fun of Zoroastrianism those bunch of fucks
October 1, 2011 at 6:55 pm
That’s right, where do those bitches get off, fucking Zororastrian fucks. Fucking shit fucks.
May 20, 2011 at 10:43 am
Yeah, that’s a bullshit argument – it’s hypocritical anyway. The reason I don’t care when I get mocked regarding christianity is simply because I’m used to it by now, not because I have some “power”. It’s more like what Lenny Bruce said when he talked about “hard words”. I really wish we’d taken his advice instead of PC advice. He was right.
May 28, 2011 at 2:50 pm
bitcheslovecrafts comment = the comment that made me laugh the most today (so far). i wish we lived in a world where people made fun of zoroastrianism.

Man. That ritual string is so fucked up! Why don’t they sell them on etsy? You could sell crochet and knitted and macramed sacred string. It would be dope.
May 17, 2011 at 10:38 pm
I hope I grow up someday too. NOT.
May 19, 2011 at 5:14 pm
But, I’m a toys-r-us kid… they said I didn’t have to grow up
May 17, 2011 at 10:46 pm
I interrupt the regularly scheduled snark post to say that a dude on food network’s CHOPPED was Mr. Shawn Dickensheets. Damned you Food network, I can never return!
May 18, 2011 at 12:46 am
Wait. They chopped his dick in the sheets? The circumcision gods will not be pleased. (To say nothing of the pissed off cleaning lady.)
May 17, 2011 at 11:27 pm
TL;DR
May 17, 2011 at 11:44 pm
TL;DR I don’t know what a paragraph is.
May 17, 2011 at 11:50 pm
SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP.
May 18, 2011 at 12:46 am
Who says “Jesus Christ” to offend Christians? Isn’t it just a normal exclamation?
May 18, 2011 at 3:43 am
Many people believe anytime you say “God”, “Jesus Christ”, “(the Virgin) Mary)”; etc, you have to use it in its proper context or it’s blasphemy. “Thou Shalt Not Take The Lord’s Name In Vain” and all that.
Personally, I interpret it as, “Don’t put words in my mouth.” ’cause I think any deity that doesn’t have a sense of humor is ridiculous.
May 18, 2011 at 4:52 am
‘Jesus Crust’ is my current favourite (from damn you autocorrect)
May 18, 2011 at 7:56 am
I the name of the Father, the Son, and 30 minutes-or-less delivery, Amen.
May 19, 2011 at 5:15 pm
I like Jeezy Chreezy from Eddie Izzard.
September 27, 2011 at 7:23 pm
Jesus Fetus Cookie has a golden brown crust.
May 19, 2011 at 6:24 pm
I prefer “Jesus-Buttfucking-Christ” for my day to day personal use.
May 20, 2011 at 7:01 am
“Jesus Jumped Up Christ In A Sidecar”
From Stephen King (The Stand IIRC)
October 3, 2011 at 7:36 pm
No, the accepted exclamation is “Jesus H. Christ”…scholars have wrangled for years over the ‘H’.
October 3, 2011 at 7:39 pm
And there’s the extremely polite “Cheese and crackers!” which supposedly has the same sounds as “Jesus Christ” but obviously isn’t blasphemous.

I used to teach at a school for students with developmental disabilities (retards, bitches!) and one of my students had a habit of sitting in the middle of the hall for hours on end. The principal of the school referred to her as “speed bump” but to say she didn’t care about, or wouldn’t do anything for, those kids would be ridiculous.
What kind of equality is it where I can tease a friend for something stupid they did but not tease a person with a developmental disability? I still CARE for christ’s sake (sorry christians!) I hate that kind of overbearing, indulgent, hypocritical bullshit.
If you can’t laugh, what the fuck else do you have?
May 18, 2011 at 9:56 am
I’ve volunteered with my friend who works for a social service that helps individuals with mental disabilities live outside of institutions. I’ve helped at a birthday party for one of the clients, and she tripped, and laughed and said, “Dang, what a retard, huh?”
I think it’s often the people who are either mildly affected or who knows someone who knows someone or read “an article once” that are the most offended….those working right in the middle of that reality, or who live it, are going to want to laugh so they don’t cry.
May 18, 2011 at 1:03 pm
I definitely agree. I have found that the most easily offended twats are those who have no capacity for understanding/ have never been around someone with a disability of any kind.
May 19, 2011 at 10:58 am
I am hurrying over to google the “retard speech” right now, but I agree. my mother teaches the severely disabled and not only finds the humor to laugh at their quirks but also forgives me for saying “retard”…constantly
July 21, 2011 at 3:19 pm
I am mom to an autistic boy and president of a special ed PTA, and I find this site, the people, and the attitude here hilarious and freeing. For Christ’s sake (the rice wine, of course), lighten up and have fun. If I don’t laugh, I just cry.
May 18, 2011 at 9:09 am
So, is she saying that it is ok to offend people if they are in the majority?
blinks
May 18, 2011 at 9:56 am
Yeah – screw you, you bigoted fucks, but I get to pick and choose who is allowed to be offended….
May 18, 2011 at 8:43 pm
After reading a few of these I’m confused. Am I a dick or a cunt?
May 19, 2011 at 6:21 am
That depends. Which one would offend you more?
May 19, 2011 at 12:54 pm
“the reason these terms were given a general derogatory meaning in the first place is because somewhere someone based their slang usage directly on the intentional belittling of the people they describe.”
Essentially, what she wants us to do is to use her name as a derogatory word.
You’re a fucking Riotta.
If you fuck your cousin, your kids will be Riotta.
My first kid was a Riotta, so I smothered him in his crib.
I’d never play Candy in a play. I’m not willing to go full Riotta.
I’ve met your father and he’s okay. Maybe the mailman was a Riotta.
She’s a Riotta because someone hit her in the head with a brick.
She was born with the coat-hanger still in her big fat Riotta head.
I’ve shit logs that were less Riotta than you.
I wouldn’t fuck that Riotta with my eyes closed.
Please keep your Riotta opinions to yourself.
Special-Ed classes are for Riottas.
You’re too Riotta to even ride the small bus.
P-Riotta-S: You’re all a fucking bag of fucking Riottas.
May 19, 2011 at 2:21 pm
I got as far as “wow, you all are a bunch of dicks. Blah..blah..blaah.. [urp] blahdi blahbiddy…blah blah..[i threw up here] blah blah… blind eye blah blah trying… touchy [brow raise] blah… [puke] blah blah…Jesus Christ…blah …someday”
If it makes you feel better, it helped my irritable bowel syndrome. I’m no longer constipated. What a wast of YOUR life eh? But thanks for that.
May 19, 2011 at 6:29 pm
I do rather enjoy telling people to “go to Hell and fuck Satan” if they annoy me.
September 27, 2011 at 7:25 pm
May 19, 2011 at 7:25 pm
“It’s wrong to offend these people, but NOT these people!” WTF? What’s that about being self-righteous?
May 20, 2011 at 9:20 am
Oh FFS! Get a grip! I hate it when people are all offended on behalf of some group, one which they probably have had ZERO contact with.
If you cant laugh you are lost, for example since i have been stuck in my wheelchair i am lovingly referred to by my husband as The Cripple, and ive stopped calling him Fat Boy and started calling him Retard, so we kinda match
July 20, 2011 at 3:38 pm
Just because white people own everything doesn’t mean you can bag on them!
Everyone should be abused equally. EQUAL RIGHTS NAMASTE!
August 8, 2011 at 10:57 pm
TL;DR but did LOL at “bunch of dicks”. That would make an excellent Regretsy bridal bouquet.
August 13, 2011 at 7:07 pm
She knows that once upon a time the word ‘idiot’ was used to describe the mentally handicapped, right? I doubt she’s never used the word ‘idiot’.
October 3, 2011 at 7:45 pm
I once said, after a near miss in a parking lot, “YOU FUCKING JERK!” while my five year old son was in the car. i immediately said to him, “I’m so sorry, Honey, I should not have said that word. Never say that word;it’s not a good thing to say.” “Yeah, Mom,” he said, “you should have said ‘you fucking idiot’, right”?
November 2, 2011 at 11:08 pm
I realize that this is about a month too late, but you have NO idea how much that story made my night. Random, but true.
October 29, 2011 at 11:42 pm
I used to know this guy who, completely seriously, responded to anything he perceived as an attack (read: constructive criticism or calling him on his bullshit) with, “Oh sure. Blame the half-black half-Jewish kid.
Me? I’m bipolar, and do I give a shit when people make cracks about the bipolar weather? No. In fact, I make that joke more often than anyone else I know. It’s called being able to laugh at yourself.
October 29, 2011 at 11:43 pm
Aaaaaaaand I forgot a quotation mark. Sigh. This is what I get for being a dick, immature, and perpetuating hatred.
May 27, 2012 at 1:03 am
Are we dicks or are we fat cunts? I’m getting confused here… Must be hermaphrodites, hmm..
August 22, 2012 at 1:48 pm
No, no, we’re fat lesbian Jewish princesses
