Do you guys not read your own stuff?

"Either be aware, prepare, survive, and thrive.. or stay in denial and eventually die on your knees. People have a choice. Most choose to stick their heads in the sand while keeping their lazy fat asses in the air. Most of em enjoy the raping."

I mean come on.

Mindlessly repeating your own incredulity, as if it does anything to make your assertion seem self-evident, when it manifestly is not, is nothing but a conceit on your part.

I understand the practice is common enough. Like some nutty Protestant trying to convince a Catholic he's really worshiping Mary (as if insisting to someone their REAL favorite color is something other than what they'll tell you when asked), but that doesn't make it any less absurd.

That the writer expresses a certain level of contempt for those he believes are being willfully obtuse about a coming calamity, is entirely separate from the idea that the writer WANTS the obtuse to suffer.

Try as you might, the two are entirely different propositions, and no amount of hystrionics on your part is going to conflate the two.

In closing, I felt compelled to tell you to "give it a rest" because it's just plain distasteful to watch someone continually trying to embarrass others over something they know they have nothing to be embarrassed about....
