Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would want to wear three of those scrabble rings for my three initials...and then I'd look tough.

The linked-to page ( [link] ) isn't loading, but this Digg discussion lets you see some of the quotes anyway: "100 Greatest Quotes from fundamentalist christian chat rooms"

Is this more sad than funny or more funny than sad?

"am a bit troubled. I believe my son has a girlfriend, because she left a dirty magazine with men in it under his bed."

This one's great:

"The only thing I don't like about them is they sell foreign language versions of the KJB. I don't think that's right. We know the only true translation is the 1600's version in English.

It's too risky for anybody to translate that into other languages. Mistakes can creep in... and that can lead to heresy. True Christians should only read English."

Paranoid much?

"They then exit the house, and run into the street, where a Christian is nailed to a large, wooden X. He is being burned alive. A crowd of atheists stand around him, all wearing black robes and hoods."

And this exchange is very sad:

HOVIND: One thing is for sure, if you do nothing it will probably get worse. But it is surprising, if you do nothing with cancer your life expectancy is somewhere between 6 and 10 years. If you take chemo your life expectancy is between 1 and 2 years.

WOMAN: They want her to take radiation. And that is my greatest fear. I believe the FDA about as much as I believe in evolution.

HOVIND: There you go. [...] I think the last thing I would do would be to take the medical profession's approach.

WOMAN: Well, that's what I'm saying too.

I have a user who needs to stop flipping out like a mammal over a non-issue.

French fries were tasty, but are not doing much for my rage.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Wow.

I guess even french fries have their limits.

I am so disillusioned right now.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Gah. That last quote reminds me of Allyson's neighbors.

NYT questions the efficacy of exercise in keeping us healthy. Favorite quote:

Just ask Steven Blair, an exercise researcher at the University of South Carolina. He runs every day and even runs marathons. But, he adds, “I was short, fat and bald when I started running, and I’m still short, fat and bald. Weight control is difficult for me. I fight the losing battle.”

Sounds to me like they're questioning the efficacy of exercise in keeping us thin.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Fit is far more important in the grand scheme than fat/thin.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

Trudy, when I haven't gotten enough sleep, it's freezing, I get stuck in traffic on the bus sitting next to a dude who smells like pee, walk into the office to my phone ringing off the hook and a server down, and spend the next three hours explaining to people why they can't login, and now that everything's back up, I have TEN MILLION things to get done?

Not even french fries are going to keep me from wanting to choke a bitch.
