Because you all like my rants...
Oh, so you’re worked up about Balloon Boy jokes because that’s just distasteful?
Okay. Great. So what are you doing right now? Oh, you’re playing on the internet. And now you’re chastising people for joking about something that, let’s be honest, is a little comical? A giant jiffy pop is flying… You know what? I’m gonna giggle. Tell me the little boy that is possibly in said balloon is named Falcon and I will laugh until tears come out of my eyes. It’ll be a sad situation if he’s dead, but let me tell you something else, kids die everyday from horrible things. Things like poverty, bombs, disease, and abuse, just to name a few. Maybe you should get off of your high horse and the internet and put some effort into those kids.
If we stopped laughing at things because they were distasteful, what the fuck would we laugh at?
Hi. Hey, Taramarie…I like a lot of the things you write and post. I really do. I don’t know you personally, but you seem great. This isn’t personal, OK?
You are a fucking hypocrite.
See, I made a tasteless post a while back that you guys can read right here. I admit that it was terrible and mean-spirited and completely uncalled for, but that’s what I do a lot of times. I write terrible, mean-spirited, uncalled for things that some people find reprehensible and some people find funny. I don’t believe any of those things because it’s just humor. Not everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s humor.
And after I posted that, Taramarie, you reblogged it and, among other comments, added this:
This is for you Anthony, whoever you are:
I’m sure you’ve heard this all before, but you deserve to hear my little rant on your lack of feelings. You, sir, are a cunt. You deserved to have the shit beat out of you. Those men go through something you can’t even begin to imagine, (unless you’ve been there yourself, and if you have, feel free to enlighten us on how you came out to be such a fucking ray of sunshine) and to mock it is sick. I’m probably not the first person that has felt the need to beat the shit out of you and I probably won’t be the last. You need to grow the fuck up and learn some goddamned respect.
That goes for anyone mocking this. You are fucking cowards hiding behind a stupid computer screen.
I didn’t make anything of it at the time because, hey, it’s a sensitive subject. Most people didn’t appreciate what I posted. Fine. Because of some people’s reactions, though, I made a facetious apology that continued to poke fun because, well, I’m an asshole sometimes.
Later that night, I wrote something about the hypocrites who are laugh at some terrible things, but think things that are close to them should be off-limits. Oddly enough, it basically covered the same points that you made above. Oddly enough, we actually hold the same viewpoint…at least now.
But you’re a fucking hypocrite. “If we stopped laughing at things because they were distasteful, what the fuck would we laugh at?” Yes, very good point. Except, when I wrote something that hit a little too close to home for you, I was a “cunt” who “deserved to have the shit beat of you”. Why? Because I wrote about a soldier instead of a lost little kid? Why are little kid jokes funny? Because they’ve only been around a few years and haven’t given people enough time to love them long enough? Because they can just be replaced easily? I think it’s a hell of a lot worse to make fun of an innocent little kid’s possible death than a soldier WHO FUCKING VOLUNTEERED TO RISK GETTING HIS FUCKING FACE BURNED OFF BY PEOPLE TRYING TO DEFEND THEIR HOME COUNTRY.
Yeah, I agree. We shouldn’t put limits on what we laugh at. But you shouldn’t point fingers or call people out, Taramarie. Why? Because you’re the worst kind of hypocrite…the type that doesn’t even remember what she was upset at in the first place because she’s too busy trying to push her holier-than-thou point-of-view on a whole new set of people.
I don’t mind the things you post. I’m sure you’re a lovely person. But don’t you dare try to try to tell people that they shouldn’t laugh at something you find despicable and then turn around and chastise them for not thinking you should laugh at something they find despicable.
