A new question word beginning with "W"?

[RavenReverend]

Yeah. This sort of struck me as odd. Conversations with Chris usually get pretty weird but he sort of half outdid himself this time. Trademarking the phrase "Endless hours of yum" aside.

datron_falcon: Told you I'd be back.
Sprinkle The Doompuss: *shoots* What? o.o
datron_falcon: Where?
datron_falcon: we should invent a new "w" question word.
Sprinkle The Doompuss: Like wut?
datron_falcon: it's gotta have it's own meaning, though.
datron_falcon: It can't just replace a previous w.
Sprinkle The Doompuss: Serious though there are only so many vowel consenant combinations that start with W that can be so cohesive, Chris. >.>
Sprinkle The Doompuss: If you're gonna make a new W question word you have to have coheeeesion.
datron_falcon: still, one day. New w word!
Sprinkle The Doompuss: How are you gonna make a new question word?!
Sprinkle The Doompuss: You have no base for your word other than W!
datron_falcon: that, and it asks a question.
Sprinkle The Doompuss: Well that's a given being that you're trying to make a new question word but you have to have some kind of vowel following W. I can't just be W. That's retarded.
Sprinkle The Doompuss: Like George W. Bush. No one cares what the W stands for they just know he's a fucktard.
Sprinkle The Doompuss: Yeah. Counteract that with your texan logic gun why dontcha.
Sprinkle The Doompuss: Betcha can't. Because you have no new question word beginning with W.


Texan logic guns phail.

[Sulajin]

I believe it's "Walker"

And "Wog" wich questions the unstated? As in "I swear I won't touch you" "Well, wog do you mean by that?" "I mean I'm going to shoot you."

Yeah, it's dumb. This is why new words grow, they aren't invented (except compound-nouns)

*resists the urge to flame based on a completely thoughtless political blast and the fact that some people have no idea what it is like to have a special needs person in their family*

[Yichimet]

The retarded was egregious, yes, but I think anyone who feels that way about W. at this point isn't being thoughtless about it. He's been in that spot for 8 years now, right? I don't really think it's thoughtless anymore.

[Kaldore]

I'm one of those crazy Liberals you read about... The kind of person that takes their own reusable bags to the food co-op in their fuel efficient car while listening to NPR and buys cage-free eggs and organic fair trade produce. Oh I'm ridiculous.

However, I don't blame everything on President Bush and I don't think he's a "retard." Sometimes he says things that I don't agree with, and he doesn't pronounce statements with 100% crisp and clipped diction all of the time... But I have to admire the fact that he takes all of the criticism and toxic sentiment hurled at him with a lot of grace and relatively good humor.

For example: How would you feel if millions of people blamed you for a hurricane?

I can only imagine the press conference "OH YEAH WELL STFU YOU FUCKING EMOS!"

[Catalinetta]

For example: How would you feel if millions of people blamed you for a hurricane?

QFT.

I'd have flipped everyone off a long time ago.

..oh wait, he did flip off the camera that one time. XD

[Kelven]

For example: How would you feel if millions of people blamed you for a hurricane?

I'd take that blame happily. I'd stand up at the news conference and say, "Yes. Yes, you're right, I sent that hurricane - and I will send more, if you people don't shape up. And that's not all I've got. I'm talking to you, people of America," at this point I'd slam a mailed fist into the lectern, and turn to face the camera, "your time of reckoning is here at last. Bow before me, or I shall bury you all in filth and ruin!"

The secret to success is taking credit for unexplained events. And dressing like Doctor Doom.

[Yichimet]

I'm guessing your just pushing buttons to prove a point, Kaldore, but I don't blame him for the hurricane. I think the administration handled some of the after-effects poorly.

In all honesty, I lost any sense of the reality of our country when I heard W. congratulate the Pope during his visit with "Awesome speech, yer Holiness." We have gone so far past the postmodern spectacle, the self-induced parody, that I'm fairly certain I'm just a part of some massive societal hallucination that may never end.

[Ninorra]

..what's wrong with saying "Awesome speech, yer Holiness"? That's what I would have said. Or, "Bad-ass presentation, holy man." Something like that.

[RavenReverend]

To be perfectly honest, George W. Bush jr. in my view? Has been the epitome of ill-timed pugilistic lust for respect in world view. As for the "retard" comment, Gorvena, my -father- is "special needs" though being -physically- retarded as well as going into dementia. If I was making a comment as to indicate someone whose intelligence quotient was less than the numerical point value of seventy to indicate someone is "mentally retarded", then I would've said "special needs". I would also like to point out the words, moron, idiot, fool, buffoon and other words that have become mainstream were at one time used to describe someone who is considered "special needs". Flame away.

My political views not withstanding, this thread was meant to be humorous. Way to take it out of context guys.

[Kaldore]

I'm guessing your just pushing buttons to prove a point, Kaldore, but I don't blame him for the hurricane.

It never ceases to amaze me that people always assume that whatever I post is done solely with the purpose to infuriate people or cause as much strife as possible.

I think the administration handled some of the after-effects poorly.

I do agree asking a Horse Lawyer with an exaggerated resume to head up FEMA wasn't the best decision, but laying the blame for levies breaking on the President is about as farfetched as me trying to personally sue the estate of Colonel Sanders if my dog choked on a chicken bone.

Would that be more or less embarassing than nearly every parent in the nation having to explain "Oral Sex" and "Stained Blue Dress" to inquisitive children unsure of why the funny president with the saxophone was in trouble?

[Grainia]

Last I heard, having an affair wasn't a crime. If the Republicans had left his private life where it belonged, those parents wouldn't have had to explain anything.

And remember that Linda Tripp illegally taped her conversations. That's the same Linda Tripp who accused Bush 41 of having an affair with a staffer.

So did Ms. Tripp also somehow trick him into turning an interns vagina into a cigar humidor?

I'm responding to the fact that President Bush is "an embarassment" by saying "we've had other embarassing leaders."

[Yichimet]

I don't always assume that with you, funny monkey. You know by now that I love you and your posts. It's just that I can't conceive of blaming the President for the hurricane myself. I don't blame him for the levies breaking, which is a problem for the Army Corps of Engineers (and one that's not being handled well, from what I gather in news reports); I don't blame him for the overcrowding Superdome and the nursing home deaths and etc. etc. I blame the administration, not him, for implementing poorly conceived plans (trucked ice, anyone?) in the wake of a terrible disaster. It's not synecdoche here, I'm referring to the administration as a whole. Tons of people made both good and bad decisions to respond. So it goes. I wish there had been more good than bad, however.

Also, the same level of embarrassing. Clinton's war games were almost as bad and the dude needed to keep it in his pants. He also, despite "balancing the budget," did nothing to curb rampant consumerism that has inflated our trade deficit beyond conceivability.

I think the devolution into post-parody started in the '70s when LBJ had the Fresca fountain installed in the West Wing, though.

[Kiaransalius]

Mostly I agree that its the Administration mainly at fault, and not necessarily the Pres. himself.

Also, Politics BAAAAAAAD for boards as someone will get out of hand. (Even though I love reasonable and logical discussion of the matter).

Truly, a hero to us all.

[Jeedup]

In goverment, shit rolls up hill.

[Gorvena]

Feralmoon - I can accept your explanation, but I still bristle at the whole "fucking retard" blast. (Which is what "fucktard" is short for.)

[RavenReverend]

And I'll accept that but I bristle at the fact you automatically assume I've had no dealings with disabled people, mental or otherwise, Gorvena and automatically assume the worst. I don't use fucktard to be derogatory to anyone. With that I'll leave this thread the fuck alone since all it is now is a buzz kill.

[Kovan]

Feral? I loled. Seriously. Screw all the politics . It was funny.

[Abric]

Ooo ... interesting indeed. So we're talking politics, retards, people feigning ignorance of what a post can do here, and the way our great Commander in Chief summoned Hurricane Katrina to rid the world of the French Quarter (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDMyArnIdzY)? Heh, if you all do a bit of research on the earthquake and tidal wave in Indonesia, you'll find Bush caused that too. Oh - and he is causing global warming.

I'm not going to do anything with this thread, because I'm biased when people talk silly, silly stuff about my boss. Be careful how you tread in the shark-infested water, folks. Don't go splashing around with a t-bone strapped to your crotch.

[Swerto]

wog the fuck you talkin bout?

We know bush also caused the mass extinction of dinsoaurs and he alone will choose when the day after tomarrow is! Don't forget the huge ass meteor stopped midway in space that he alone can make move towards us!

[Lythas]

... that is fantastic.

[Sulajin]

I blame hurricane Katrina on the city. If you're going to build a damn city on land below sea-level that damn close to the sea, then either do it right or don't cry to me when you're drowning in seawater.


Harsh? Yes, but it was a stupid idea to begin with, and now they're rebuilding. Fool me once? Shame on me. Fool me twice?

[LorFedorovic]

Wog the crap, Sul? Wog the crap?

*resists the urge to flame based on a completely thoughtless political blast and the fact that some people have no idea what it is like to have a special needs person in their family*
Yeah... I know. >_> Lots of biting ones own tongue... which I'm horrible at in the first place. 'Cept... I have a person with severe special needs as a sister and... I thought that was somewhat funny. XD To me the word has taken on a separate meaning, despite it's roots. Sort of like how most of Europe freaked out when Tiger Woods called himself a "spaz." It just doesn't hold that derogatory lining for us anymore. *shrugs*

I still avoid saying it myself, but language evolves with or without political correctness.

I believe it's "Walken"
There... all better. >_> *Ignores the politics and goes to watch anything with Christopher Walken in it.
