The Definition of Chutzpah

We know about the Catholic Church and its paedophile coverup "scandal", and the Vatican is trying to repair its tarnished image. So the Pope's personal preacher man tried to explain to the faithful on Good Friday that its not their fault. 

Rev. Raniero Cantalamessa delivered a sermon likening the scorn of the Church to pogroms against the Jews. On Good Friday, THE day that most Christians use as justification for their anti-semitism. Popes of yore as well as the current one have formerly used the day to call for conversion of Jews to Christianity, but this takes the mouldy cake. 

  For those of you not in the know, the priest is comparing the hatred of perverts to the persecution of a religious minority . Comparing evil subhumans to innocent victims. According to the pontiff's favourite priest, the Catholic Church is being victimized by the scandal. What a crock of BULLSHIT!

  The Catholic Church had knowledge and directly enabled horrifying people commit unspeakable acts against the innocent. And now because they might have to be held accountable for their crimes against humanity they are using the plight of people they hate in an effort to keep followers in the dark. The Catholic Church was directly responsible for the deportations and deaths of millions of people because of their faith, the same faith they compared themselves to in the sermon.

  The Church needs to accept responsibility for its crimes and leave the Jews alone. Never be shocked by the hypocritical behaviour of those devoid of true humanity and incapable of remorse. 

Be well.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

 I LOVE Law and Order. I'm not sure how long I've been watching this show, but it's been a long time. Not the whole run because we didn't have cable when I was a kid, but I'm pretty sure that through watching the reruns on A&E I've seen almost every episode. And Epatha Merkerson has been in almost every one. 

  According to reports, the 17 year veteran and all-around awesome lady is leaving after this season. Sure, the show has made it through the departures of a bundle of talents, but this woman's absence could crash the show. The current storyline certainly leads into her character dying off, but I just don't want it to be true. If the show goes on, it certainly won't be the same. 

*sniff* R.I.P. Lt. Van Buren.

Step One

 

 Chris Porter has made a living off of imprisoning wild animals. He is a large marine animal trainer, in fact the trainer of the orca that killed Dawn Brancheau. In addition to this he owns a company that captures dolphins in their habitat and sells them to aquariums . He has been directly responsible for the abuse of high-order marine animals and the deaths of 12 who died when he got the ingenious idea to ship them in a DC-10. He has long been portrayed as a remorseless dolphin dealer, and for good reason.

But then something hit him. After watching The Cove and hearing of the death of friend, he came to the conclusion that whales and dolphins shouldn't live in swimming pools and forced to do tricks for food. . In the wild, they can migrate vast distances and can have a snack whenever they want to. When intelligent creatures are denied everything that is natural to them, they lose their cool, and you would too. Chris Porter finally had a change of heart and decided to send 17 animals back to the Solomon Islands. 

  Mr. Porter could have made millions from selling his remaining dolphins and decided to put them back because it was the right thing to do. We can't erase our past actions, but we can try to atone by becoming aware of who we are as people. We don't start out as scumbags in utero. Change is there if you dare to accept it. 

Yummy Treat

 This is an Icelandic delicacy called Hakarl. It is the putrefied flesh of a Greenland shark or the endangered Basking shark. The Greenland shark is poisonous so the locals have a peculiar way of preparing it, and I'll give you the jist of it. 

Fishermen dig a hole in the sand and place the gutted shark in it for 2 or 3 months, allowing it to ferment in its own bodily fluids, many of which eventually run out into the sand. The the shark is hung to dry out for up to a year and it develops a nasty brown crust, which is mercifully cut off prior to eating. 

The rotten shark is one of the strongest-smelling foods on the planet. Because it has been soaking in its own uric acid (yes that's pee) it comes out smelling like highly concentrated ammonia. It is so pungent that Gordon Ramsey puked after attempting to consume it. Eating the fermented fish is associated with strength and bravery, and for good reason. I cannot THINK of anyone who would voluntarily consume the rotten flesh of a poisonous animal. 

I'm curious as to how someone would come up with the idea of burying an enormous fish for months to make it (barely) edible. Although it doesn't particularly appeal to me, it continues to amaze me how inventive isolated people can be in order to survive. Most Ikes I know are hardcore dudes, and this fish dish is proof that they are are crazier and tougher than most of you. 

Eat up!

As Seen On Television

  I'm sure all of you have seen this annoying cat pitching crap to the masses on late-night television, but watch this ad and pay attention .

Note Mr. Sullivan repeatedly looking down at the jack and at the camera while the vehicle is moving. In most places, that's called driving with undue care and attention. 

Just sayin.

Fuck Off Friday : Kate Gosselin

I have received plenty of submissions for this interactive blog segment, but Kate Gosselin and other fame-whoring parents have garnered more votes than anyone else thus far. There is no other trashy mum that pisses off reader and parent KC more than Kate, and wants the world to know why. 

  Kate Kreider Gosselin was just a mother of two with a blue-collar job before she gave birth to sextuplets. The brood stayed out of the spotlight for the first while, with the odd news special but little else. After noting the high ratings of those specials, Discovery Health decided to offer a show where all 8 kids were to be followed and videotaped at least 3 days a week in exchange for a payout. While I would view that alone as exploitative, many others do not and it CAN be done in a respectful manner under the right circumstances with mature people.  The Gosselins are NOT.

 It became apparent that Jon and Kate adored the camera far more than their children. When the show was picked up by the higher-profile TLC, they began this bizarre metamorphosis from parents into divas. Kate became an abusive diva and Jon seemed all too happy to play the bumbling fool and his wife's victim. They began permitting more invasive filming despite the fact that their children were becoming deeply emotionally screwed up by the attention. Millions tuned in to watch a family implode, and instead of pulling the plug, Kate began transforming herself into the diva she thought she should be. The couple invited the media into their marriage and their subsequent divorce long after responsible people would have pulled the plug. 

  But the hate for Kate goes far beyond just one program. Kate Gosselin now fancies herself a talent, pitching talk shows and guest starring on television wherever she can get the chance. This is a woman declared the custodial parent by the courts. Now, she's on Dancing With the Stars, made over by stylists and surgeons into someone more removed from her previous self than Heidi Montag. She has catfights with her costars,( who are actually talented )and prances around in her cloud of entitlement. She has become a woman we love to hate, and deserving of all of the scorn she receives.

  Kate needs to go back to being a parent and save the douchebaggery for Jon. As the primary parent, she needs to step out and teach the wee ones how to become decent people. She needs to live the example because 16 little eyeballs are watching every interview, every abusive tirade toward their father, and every childish tantrum. All these television appearances do is reinforce the idea that cuntiness is the way to success, and her daughters will grow up feeling that they are inferior without constant attention. Kate has neglected the most important job in existence in favour of her own selfish desires. 

  For putting herself and her dreams ahead of those of 8 other human beings, Kate Gosselin is the essence of whoredom and there are a multitude of reasons why Kate needs to go away. 

  Fuck off home Kate Gosselin, and be a parent to your children.

WTBlue Fuck Of The Weak

 

 Roughly half of you are American, so I'm sure you've heard of this case, but I have some serious words here . You've been warned.

  A 15 year old New Jersey kid has been arrested for selling herself and her 7 year old sister for sex with men. The wee one wound up getting gang-raped by 7 dudes . There are other details that I'm not going into because they're unnecessary, heartbreaking, and enraging. 

I don't know who the fuck raises a kid with such self-hatred that she'd not only degrade herself but facilitate the rape of an innocent. Trust me, if my kid even thought of going to a party, let alone took my baby with her, I might just put a stop to that. The parents are claiming ZERO responsibility by claiming that their kids snuck out of the apartment. That just ain't happening in the house of a decent parent. 

Also the parents of the 7 perverts who thought it okay to ruin the lives of a  baby should hang their heads in shame. Cops have only arrested one of them, so you KNOW that someone is helping these dudes out. My kid wouldn't do anything like this, but if he did I'd feed him his balls or at least turn him into the authorities. Those sickos who destroyed the innocence of a child who should be worried about little more than the latest Barbie need to be locked up. Not in the pedo block, but in general population for the remainder of their useless lives. If you are such a waster that you think this shit is okay you don't deserve any quality of life whatsoever.

Sickos.
