Putting Down an Insurgency




Posted at 18:16 by Brad

Two minor players in the VideoWars, Roxanne and Tim F., are trying to weaken our resolve by firing some quick hit-and-run attacks. Needless to say, we are prepared to put down this pathetic rebellion with swift and ruthless brutality:

I’m sorry I had to do that, guys. But you left me with no options.

Gavin adds: I saw something moving in that rubble. Hit ‘em again.

UPDATE: Evil terror criminal Marita launches weapon of “mass” destruction by Fr. Stan Fortuna, the rapping Franciscan (aieee)!!

    Minor? Would Nimitz have deafeated the Japanese in the Battle of Saipan if not for the heroic bravery of one 1PFC Guy “Gabby” Gabaldon? I think not.

    Rox, you launched a Jefferson Starship bomb, then didn’t even collect the dead and wounded afterwards. Honestly, The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T is a fearsome weapon indeed, but civilized states must regard you as a lawless entity unprotected by international treaty.

    Oh why won’t you lay down your weapons?

    I fire at you Robin Williams singing

    Oh, great. And meanwhile, the rest of us become our very own pile of collateral damage.

    I’m with Mark… we should group up and form an Axis of… Really Annoying.

    To that end, I see your Smitty, Brad, and raise you Fr. Stan Fortuna.

    Anyone else care to join us?

    I’ll join the Axis. How about a little duet between Mae West and Alice Cooper?

  13. Mark said,

    Yes, lets start the Axis of the Really Annoying!

    Can I be the North Korea of it?

    Can I be the North Korea of it?

    Sure thing, Mark! (And nice one on the Mae/Alice, Mark S.!)

    But if we’re going to do this axis thing right, we really should coordinate our weapons. I’d hate for two of us to launch the same Philip Michael Thomas song at once. That would just be embarrassing.

    Tell you what. If you want to join up, go here, and shoot me an e-mail. It’s safe – the faint of heart will never make it past the insane yodeling dutchman. Once we’re all in, we can plan an attack that Sadly, No! will never forget…

    (Bwa ha ha ha!)

    See.

    Once you’ve commenced with the military attacks, you spend all your time trying to quell insurgencies and protect your flanks.

    Meanwhile, Mari’e”” Jon’ and Swank go unridiculed.

    Really, wouldn’t it have been better to negotiate?

    OT, but since TC brought him up, here’s the title to one of Swank’s more recent columns:

    Congregational Church Refuses To Honor God’s Period

    What denomination is Swank again?

    Mark S.
    Swank claims to be pastor of an “independent, evangelical church”, but there seems to be considerable doubt that the church itself exists. Witness this classic exchange on a discussion board a year ago. “item” as Swank refers to himself, loses it on page two in an all caps frenzy. “”Atheists don’t deserve replies for they believe in nothing so why supply them with something,” is my favorite quote.

    I think I have discovered the true Nigerien yellowcake of the VideoWars, an artist whose as yet undiscovered video, if actually found, would blow the lid off this whole clamebake. I give you…Der Falsche Heino!

    According to my German sources, this guy is believe it or not, some sort of a Heino parodist. Apparently, der echte Heino (whose performance of “Blau Blueht der Enzian” was fired off in some minor skirmish early in this war) has little sense of humor and has sued poor FH. So far as I can tell, there are no Falsche Heino videos available on line. But if we were to ever find one…

    I’m sorry. But I think Roxanne killed us all by posting a video of the Osmands. Trying to rock.

    The horror……The Horror……..

    I must reiterate, that I find Smitty kind of hot. Especially in the bathtub. Damn those OC white boys and their dropping booty!

  34. JackGoff said,

    July 14, 2006 at 1:06

    Found this on Wikipedia:

    - Smitty has two younger brothers and sisters. He is currently paying for one of his sisters college education.

    He’s a bad rapper, but he’s a good guy it seems.

    Nein. The false Heine is Dutch, I think. Although it could be Danish. I don’t read either, but do read German and he is not that.

    Their mania is short lived as they are vaporized because…

    Well, they always say that after the bomb drops we’ll see Shangri-La or Xanadu.

    The Xanadu is a slightly different version than the ONJ version.

    The website is certainly Dutch, but I believe that Der falsche Heino himself is German. At any rate, my personal source of information darüber ist deutsch.
