“Kill the K-Lo! Cut her throat! Spill her blood!”

The only way Jonah would even begin to taste good is in a smoker- there’s just not enough meat (muscle) on him, and the fat would have to be rendered. He might have some good bacon on him, though.

Mmmmmmmmm, Jonah.

Reminds me of the Tree House of Horror where the alien is trying to bake Homer, and exclaims “this one won’t stop eating himself!”

She’s the logical choice. She could feed the multitudes.

Has Jonah gotten stupider since this hurricane, or is it just my imagination?

“It is reported”

My fave new expression.

It is reported that Cpl. Cmdr W. Jonah Goldriker is responsible for a massive sushi genocide. No link, no nothing. No fact check, nothing.

It is also reported that JG likes huff magic shell off Derb’s taint, but that’s neither here nor there, it’s only been “reported”.

Jonah is the guy in the boat who starts talking cannibalism after being adrift for 20 minutes.

“Like chickens. Delicious chickens.”

You know, *if* this actually happened, I find it fascinating that Jonah, who has clearly never missed a meal or even seconds in his life, is busily dehumanizing the desperate with his CHUD jokes.
Prick.

…”who has clearly never missed a meal or even seconds in his life”…

Yeah that’s what strikes me about all these hot air bags, blaming everything on looters and the chaos that inevitably prevails when civilization and it’s various components break down and fail, they have obviously never stared long and hard into the abyss and considered what they might be capable of doing to simply survive. I’m putting big money on the idea that these righteous assholes would be panicking and stealing and fighting and looting worse than any of the victims of this disaster/disgrace were they in the same water-filled shoes.

Whaddayou mean never missed a meal or seconds? Don’t you know his nickname is Donner Partyload? Oh, er, sorry…got that wrong……

Not the 2000 pound Old Doughy Pantload routine again, Vladi!

My stepdad has the dubious honor of having not one but TWO relations as famous victims of cannibalism (they must be TASTY in that family!). Yep, Donner Party AND the infamous Alfred Packer incident. Hey, I’m not condoning it, but I know for a fact that the guy on the Donner Party told the others when he knew he was dying “If if comes to that, you must do it.” Nobody knows how they are going to react in a time of extreme desperation until they get there…but I have a feeling that extreme desperation for Jonah is having to face a keyboard and a blank screen. What. A. Prat.

The whole point of the Bespectacled Marshmallow’s article is that the former president of a left-wing think tank devoted to black studies reported rumours that starving residents were eating corpses. And he used the word “black” to describe them. And this is racist.

Okay, they are absolutely running out of straws now.

Wouldn’t that be -Alferd- Packer?

Pedantic, I know…

Just for the record, if anyone is ever stranded with me with no food for several days and I’m dead, feel free to eat my corpse. It ain’t doing me any good at that point. Preferably do it before I start breeding bacteria and disease that seep into the water and kill other people. And I apologize in advance for the titbob, since it probably would have kept you alive an extra couple days.

So we have got Jonah out of the way.
Now do ANY of you have any ridicule for Randall Robinson?

You know, the guy who actually made the unsourced claim that black people were resorting to cannibalism?

Because ridiculing the guy who ridiculed the guy who made these unsourced claims kind of makes it look like you missed the point. Or you are just a bunch of red-hot wingnuts. One of the two.

….pedantic indeed! It was Alferd–sorry, I was typing too fast. And I do agree with D. Sidhe-if I’m lying there freshly dead and you are starving, please feel free. As for not ridiculing the original unsourced nitwit – well, Jonah is just to easy a target to pass up, isn’t he? However, point taken.

I’m not saying the guy is not a tool, I’m just saying let’s spread the tar around a bit and feathers for all.

I already aired my views on the original assertions by Mr Robinson. I just did it on another blog. Am I a red-hot wingnut for not plastering the whole of blogtopia with the same comment?

Clearly, yes!

My mistake, then. Actually, my criticism of Mr Robinson was somewhat tempered by the genuinely vile remarks made by his critics in his comment section.
For some reason, half of the racists on the net seem to have rushed forward to “defend” “those people” by suggesting that Robinson, being black, was too stupid and gullible to know any better than to print lies, and the other half to explain that “those people” were certainly capable of anything, lacking any sense of civilization.

My feeling, regarding all the ugly rumors of looting and raping and murder and cannibalism, was to assume in general that much less of it was going on than we were hearing, that what *was* going on was undoubtedly being done by people regardless of color or class, and had a lot more to do with desperation and hopelessness and horror and what I suppose I would refer to as traumatic insanity, than opportunism and felonious natures.

Robinson’s article seemed sympathetic to all of that, rather than scolding or mocking or purely voyeuristic. Goldberg’s fell into the latter categories, and in fact he’s been covering this all week with a tone of derision towards the suffering and the dead.

So, yes, my biases came into play, and of the two of them, I’m embarrassed for Robinson’s lack of professionalism, but I’m appalled by Goldberg’s lack of empathy.
I didn’t miss the point, I just covered it briefly elsewhere, and moved onto what I felt was a larger point here.

Robinson’s article may have been sympathetic or not but it had only one topic which was sourced as well as any message written on a public toilet door.

As for whether someone at the NRO is an asshat who wrote something idiotic and inflammatory… well… isn’t that their job?

Seriously, there is no professional wrestling scandal. Nada. It doesn’t exist. Because everyone accepts that the fights are fixed there is no issue when bullshit is presented as reality for entertainment purposes.

I really see no difference between the WWF coming up with an American fighter who hates America every week and Fox coming up with an Asian woman who says foreign-looking people should be locked up and another woman who says women shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

After all, the evil wrestler doesn’t actually have to hate America… he just has to say he does. That’s all the masses need.

Likewise… nobody has to shank a panda to offend everyone… it’s the thought that counts :)~

You know, I’ve never actually been one to cut morons and assholes much slack on the grounds that they are *always* morons and assholes. It’s always rather seemed like a good reason for more, not less, irritation.
I see your point. I guess I just don’t really agree with it.

Did anyone notice how quickly the stories of the looters and rapists and murderers came up in the media? And all of it hearsay?
I’m not calling the national guard pussies, but a few rounds of small arms fire at a chinook helicopter isn’t much of a danger. Certainly not a reason to abandon the relief effort. I have a sinking feeling that they’re playing this up so that afterward they can be all like “How could we rescue them on time? They were Shooting at us, and raping puppies.”
