  • Well, something to consider is that as an exclamation, “Jesus” etc started among Christians as an invocation of protection, not as an expletive. Same as “oh my god!”. We’ve kind of dropped the second part for brevity, (“save me!”)

    In the way we use it, it’s usually more of an exclamation than an expletive, but, eh, as far as which is more offensive, it’ll always depend on who you’re talking to- even between Christians

  • Christians have a long history of skipping things.

    none of the prophecy's in Mathew were about jesus; oops. or things like jesus saying "I didn't come to abolish the law but to fulfill it"... violating the law by adding to (and removing from) it... (but that's not allowed. oops.)

  • We should wall off Florida and call it America’s cock ring. After getting all the fascist to move there.

  • Dildos bring pleasure to people every day. Lots of people.

    Stephen miller probably hasn’t.

  • The thing is… arch…. You can actually fix. Most times.

    Unlike the proverbial him.

    (Not that you should have to.)

  • First… yes, as far as it goes. That said there’s some problems with it on the whole.

    Keep in mind, this is a thought terminating cliche saying by Vulcans to explain “the logic” of self sacrifice.

    The thing about logic is it can be used to justify all sorts of horrific things. (For example, the us nuking of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.)

    It’s also important to note that, in general, I don’t really disagree with it here. That doesn’t make it any less of a cliche or problematic when applied to things like social policy.

    Consider Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Some needs are themselves more weighty than others.

    that guy’s need to get to work on time doesn’t outweigh my need to dress safely, even if there’s a dozen of them behind me- and never will.

    Similarly, if the needs of the many (say, to feel safe) are juxtaposed against the few, whose need is to stay alive…. The needs of the few outweigh the many. One might say “but that doesn’t happen”… but we do. All the time.

    Right now, the most extreme example are all the people that defend Israel’s right to genocide by insisting that Israel has a right to defend itself.

    That said. Billionaires don’t need to make money. And they don’t even need to exist, for that matter.

  • Ah yes but the belly rubs are a trap too, once you find the right scratch spot he’ll hold your arm down

    Is that a trap? Or a reward?

    Don’t threaten me with a good time.

  • Eh. Having a huge dick isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

    Big dicks tend not to get hard and flop around.

  • And also blaming the witches for their problems.

    Like bro? You were born with a tiny dick. Blame yer daddy.

  • Can’t forget the lovely chants!

    (But I get the feeling OC wants something more than protests and strikes. And considering they’re apparently not American, I suggest their rhetoric is not actually in our interests.)

  • Because they’re Deep Ones.

    (Even they need vacations…)

  • I’ve got a bridge to sell, when you’re done with them.

  • the various common names of birds have convinced me that ornithologists are mostly horny perverts that have spent too much time alone in the woods.

  • Oh... we were supposed to drop our evidence? Very well...

    and for the weirdos.. the murder hornet... ( i wouldn't call these fuckers cute, but I'm sure somebody does. Their moms, maybe.)

    Far from exhaustive, but eh, these are my favorite Pokémon. (Okay so murder hornets are ugly, but they’re murderous!)

  • Sleep well, tonight. Sleep…. Lightly.

  • Just to for the record, if your car can’t avoid a pothole, you shouldn’t be calling it any kind of self driving.

    I’ll leave the attachment to logicbomb. Humans tune out unless they’re fully engaged. We’re easily distracted, even if our heads are up and eyes open.

    And chances are, they weren’t. Because “full self driving” is marketed specifically as… you know… full self driving…

  • Still. Both Lupo and I would pay money to see them try and put a hat on a gator.
