We often comment on famous people dying, even if it's just the whole "death in threes" thing, but of all the celebrities and famous people, if one were to die tomorrow (of undisclosed causes), who's death would affect you the most?

Oh, the irony...
Back in the day England went socialist and decided they needed to support people who could not get work. A good and noble thing. Then the punk scene latched onto this and figured they could stay on the dole and not have to ever work. To do this they would have to regularly apply and interview for jobs they are qualified for and not get hired. To achieve this the punk movement started getting tattoos, mohawks, and oddly colored hair (piercing came a little bit later). It worked great. They could interview till the cows came home, they would not get hired, and the state would continue to pay them.
Now flash to modern day America where people get mohawks, tattoos in conspicous areas, oddly colored hair, etc and they are upset they can not get a job.
So let's condense this, people do thing patently designed to prevent them from being hired, and are then upset when they do not get hired.
Seriously, when you tattoo your forehead with a naked lady siloette (like a trucker mudflap), and you know how people would react, why do you get upset when they react they way you knew they would? Your situation was completely avoidable, but you chose to go this path with your eyes wide open. And now you whine and complain about not the tattoo, but how people treat you because of it.
The irony is delicous.
Humanity is always good for a laugh.

You never really know how much the guy standing at the urinal next to you splatters until you go to the restroom wearing shorts and sandals.
I'm going to go hose off and die. Not necessarily in that order.

Why am I having flash backs to Marcross? All we need is protoculture, and the ability to enter jeriwalk mode...

Rumor has it that we should have a good show from the Aurora Borealis tonight.
That will also explain why all your wireless conections are kind of sucky right now.

Welcome fellow brother or sister to the Elite. You rock my socks and I pay homage to those who have passed my test in the top. You have destroyed the competition and are worthy of being called the ALMIGHTY SPIFFY RULERS OF... Somewhere that I have not named yet. Still you are cool and therefore you get the pic of Johnny to proudly display should you feel so bold to do so. |
