OMGAWD, I fucking LOVE the Sky Cake bit because it is so true!

This version isn't quite the same as the one of his album, but Patton Oswalt's bit about Sky Cake made me laugh so hard, and now I can't help but think of the WBC and go, "Oh Sky Cake..."

I'm still confused. Most of them are still covering their mouths or just standing there. I don't know what they're showing other than that they are illustrating that they've silenced themselves.

I looked it up on Wikipedia (which does have that one photograph that does express showing rather than telling), but it doesn't explain it.

I dunno. I mean, I was all against Prop 8, myself, but once again we're talking all those people who threw a fit about politics, but didn't vote (I'm staring right at you, American youth).

EDIT: I just remembered. When I went to that big, 2,000-strong against Westboro counter-picket in Long Beach, one of the counter-protest organizers started walking around passing out duct tape shouting, "They want to silence us! And we want to show them we can't be silenced, so put the tape over your mouths!!" Yeah... uh... huh?

Maybe this is all too existential for me.

Yeah, that's what I figured they were doing.

Honestly, I'm not entirely clear on why the NoH8 folks are having people duct-tape their mouths to begin with. "They want to silence us! So we did it to ourselves!!!"

Anything pertaining to their ridiculousness has already been stated.

3) Steve Jobs is the inventor of the phone

Therefore: Steve Jobs is God, and God is in Hell.

I believe retards like this are the reason we still have an Electoral College.


I read that as "Electrical College", and immediately thought "Electric Chair".

Take from that what you will.

I'm not surprised. They've turned EVERYTHING into a form of profit. They gotta pay for all these plane tickets to picket around the country somehow.

I mean, they keep managing to counter-sue people and WIN, but that's what comes from them all being lawyer-inclined what with the family law firm and all.

Still, that explanation... that's... that's hilarious.

If God can smite that one dude who claimed the end of the world was a few months ago. Then God has a special place for these guys.

Patience, is all I can say.

Not an Apple fan in the slightest myself but I think Steve Jobs was kind a cool dude. Pretty lucky though, I've read some of his articles about how he didn't go to college and just lucked out without education and stuff.

I'm not a fan of Apple or Steve Jobs in the slightest... but I hate Westboro even more. Fucking hypocrites and dumbasses. I hope something happens to them this time, I'm really that spiteful.

Yeah, that's why I drew that circle.

A few screen shots of this Tweet have been going around Facebook. I thought it was fake, but then I looked it up myself. No, it's real, and it's fucking sad.

This image is one of the ones going around:

Dumb bitch is trying to claim God created the iPhone, so she's justified.

I left a few choice words in Twitter myself on that topic...
