Doesn’t have the same humor possibilities.

Well...

I struggle with the clash between two realities:
Breitbart would have LOVED a good-hearted roast at the hands of his fellow warriors, but...the idea of roasting the deceased...

While I’m certain that the more cold-hearted on the left (generously granting the possible existence of some that are not) would relish the mental imagery conjured up by a hearty, post mortem roasting, it isn’t the kind of mental theatre attended by decent people.

So, the conflict stands: to maintain proper decorum, or to memorialize the man in a manner he would have enjoyed.

Personally, I tend to the former, but only out of a felt need NOT to provide political enemies with any ammo. Not that they will eschew assassinating the dead for lack of it, but only to inhibit their efforts in whatever degree possible.

I agree. No messing up a Brietbart thread.

A thread on some silly subject is bound to pop up. Let’s all keep an eye out for one and ping Darkie to it when we see one, like a story about a mouse that gets caught in a gay Chinaman’s zipper or something....

If you’re game, please ping the gang so we can all look. (BTW, I think I’m still not on your list...’Face brought me to the last couple threads...)
