Amused

Earlier today, Michael Z. Williamson put up a Facebopok post, looking for someone "... well versed in Christian theology..." to help with some story research.

Apparently, he's got quite a few readers - and FB followers - who are preachers, teachers, or what-have-you across a number of different denominations.  More than a few mentioned time in seminary or spent pursuing a theology degree.  We all chimed in and offered whatever assistance he might need.

Imagine that.  All us religious folks reading Mad Mike.  Which obviously goes to prove how stupid we are.  Because there is no other explanation for why such unbelievably homophobic, racist, sexist, classist, extremist, bitter clingers would read fiction from a such a libertarian author, right?

Because everyone knows that we're just plain ignorant and intolerant.

Meanwhile, ask your favorite progressive if they've ever read anything from Mr. Williamson, or Larry Correia, or Sarah Hoyt.  Be prepared for a lecture on why they would never sully their eyes with their right-wing filth.

What was that phrase again?  Ah, yes... "just plain ignorant and intolerant."


They're Baaaaack!

Sorry for the temporary interruption from the ice cream machine.  It's amazing how much time and effort goes into recovering from even a simple little thing like your house burning down.

So, what have you guys been up to in the meantime?  Let's see...

Huh.  Donald Sterling?  Miley Cyrus?  A wave of graduation speaker disinvitations?  What's this mess over here... OK, who's the idiot who let the "white privilege" folks out of their pens?  Trigger warnings all over the place, ugh.  They're finally investigating Benghazi, but it's awash in accusations of racism.  Gotcha.  Obamacare is still a train wreck, progressives are still whining about racism and sexism.  Larry Correia and Sad Puppies puts the beat down on the Hugo nomination process, good.  Oh, they fired the editor of the NYT because a woman was pushy and wanted paid as much as a man?  Très surprenant.

Sheesh... the VA is killing people?  We're fighting Boko Haram with hahstags?  At least that whole Crimea thing is settled... whaddya mean, no?  More hashtags?

Wait, what?  Hillary Clinton in 2016?

Sweet mother Mary on a pogo stick, I can't leave you people alone for a minute, can I?
