Is anyone literate at this site?

by mcdave, Wed Feb 20, 2008 at 09:14:34 PM EST

Let me first say that I love this site. I'm an Obama fan, but I still enjoy reading Jerome Armstrong's smartass diaries, as well as all of the analysis by Todd and others.

But really - I have to ask: Is anyone literate at this site?

There is no doubt in my mind that Dailykos is full of Obama-hacks and blind Obama partisans, but at least those folks can write a complete sentence!

Seymore Butts (or whatever his name is) can barely speak english, from what I can tell. Either that or he's copying and pasting his posts from someone who can barely speak english. There's nothing wrong with that (I'm very into the multi-cultural thing), but maybe he study up a bit.

Yellowdem is equally dumb. In a recent diary titled "despite media spin; why delegates won't matter:Hillary wins!", he/she/it said the following:

"btw, so far she has only lost 1 state Primary(Missouri) where she seriously contested and lost."

Yeah.

You all include the most over-the-top hyperbole in your diaries and your comments. You rarely capitalize letters that should be capitalized, and you vomit out conspiracy theories like "The MSM is trying to nominate Obama because they know he'll lose!"

Frankly, I'm wondering if any of you people are even literate. I read a diary earlier today titled "It's not over yet!!!!!!!!!!". Go read it. It's pathetic.

Seriously - the Hillary supporters over at Dailykos (what's left of them) can at least form a complete thought. You folks are pathetic.

This diary calls out bloggers by name and assigns them offensive epithets. (That's a whole sentence, by the way.) Go back to Daily Kos where that behavior is embraced.

That's it, baby; let's go win this election!

as for literacy (1.80 / 5)

I think you should read the rules of the site, and then work on some reading comprehension.

Re: oh boo hoo (none / 0)

true.

on a different note, Hillary deserves the support that you are giving her, no doubt... but if she loses on 3/4, we are gonna need your help Seymour.

you know i would support hilldog in the general, can we count on some vicious anti-McCain diaries from you in the future?

Re: oh boo hoo (1.00 / 1)

I REALLY like and respect McCain and have for over a decade.

he's funny as hell and his pow story just kills me.

i may vote against him, but again...i respect and like him. i won't attack him even whenn hill is the nominee.

after this race, even if he ends up the VP, WHICH I STILL FIND PROBABLE , I'll never "respect" obama.

oh well..

Sen. John McCain on snl

Wake Up Wakefield

Megan.....Maya Rudolph
Sheldon.....Rachel Dratch
Pete Van Bleet.....Sen. John McCain
Mr. Banglion.....Horatio Sanz
Randy Goldman.....Jimmy Fallon

Megan: From Wakefield Middle School, it's time for Wake Up Wakefield. Fun facts and important information for the student of San Jose. It's 7:55 and we are live from the audio/visual department here in room 312. I'm your host Megan, and this is my best friend and co-host, Sheldon.

Sheldon: Hey

Megan: As always, we're joined by Jazz Times Ten.

Sheldon: Scott Abasion, you blew my mind, dog. No wonder you went to districts. (Kid plays trumpet)

Megan: Great. Well, as you can see, me and Sheldon are geared up for today's Halloween festivities. Sheldon, I like your costume. Who are you supposed to be?

Sheldon: I'm PBS interviewer, Charlie Rose. You guys should check him out, he blows Letterman away.

Megan: And I'm a hula girl. See, (stands up and gestures) this means "peaceful morning", and this means "beautiful ocean", and this means "Randy Goldman is my boyfriend and we're full-on making out." (makes out with invisible Randy Goldman)

Sheldon: Alright, um, our guest today teaches 7th grade visual arts. And even though his name is Mr. Van Bleet, he lets us all call him Pete. Please welcome, Pete Van Bleet. (entrance music, Pete Van Bleet enters)

Pete Van Bleet: What's up, little dudes? Your costumes are outta sight.

Megan: Hey, thanks. My dad made me wear this shirt under it, so boys don't get the wrong idea.

Pete Van Bleet: (to Sheldon) Who are you supposed to be?

Sheldon: I'm Charlie Rose.

Pete Van Bleet: I love Charlie Rose.

Sheldon: Did you see him last night? He really got Harrison Ford to open up.

Megan: Well, Mr. Van Bleet is our favorite teacher. One time, he let our class splatter paint all over each other. It was weird, but awesome.

Pete Van Bleet: Yea, man. It was Jackson Pollock freak out Friday.

Sheldon: Yea, I called it Sheldon's Mom's freak out Friday, because when I got paint in the front seat of her new Volvo, she freaked out.

Megan: So, Pete, what have you brought for us today?

Sheldon: Cause she leases it, and when we turn it in, there could be some serious penalties.

Megan: Woah, ok. Pete, I hear you brought us some interesting jack o' lanterns.

Pete Van Bleet: These aren't jack o' lanterns. They're abstract o' lanterns! There ain't no fascist right wing law that says you have to carve the same thing every year. (cart with 4 "abstract o' lanterns" is wheeled on) Use your imagination! I carved these pumpkins into the original line up of Steely Dan.

Megan: Wow, Pete, that's rad.

Sheldon: That's a dead-on Donald Fagan.

Mr. Banglion: Hey kids!

Megan: Hey Mr. Banglion.

Mr. Banglion: Sorry to interrupt...

Sheldon: Hey Mr. B.

Mr. Banglion: Hello Mr. Van Bleet. You parked your VW bus diagonally across two parking spaces again.

Pete Van Bleet: Oh, sorry man, I spaced out.

Mr. Banglion: Yea, well, Ms. Blouchard had to park all the way around back and she has water ankles.

Pete Van Bleet: I'll make it up to her. Is she into sand art?

Mr. Banglion: I don't know. Hey kids, whatter those?

Megan: They're Steely Dan o' Lanterns.

Pete Van Bleet: I'm trying to get the estudiantes to use their imaginations! I use my imagination every day!

Mr. Banglion: Yea, your hair and clothes reek of your imagination, Pete. You might wanna restrict yourself to using your imagination just on the weekends. Bye kids.

Pete Van Bleet: Hey, I'm tenured man. I'm so tenured.

Megan: Bye Mr. B.

Pete Van Bleet: Fascist.

Megan: Ok, now it's time for today's hot topic, are we too old to trick or treat this year?

Sheldon: Um, well, last year, there was a pretty big problem in my neighborhood with people getting pushed into the hedges. Specifically, people who are dressed as peanut M&M's, and weren't expecting it because their costume limited their perifial vision. So, I'm just gunna lay low this year.

Megan: Yea, me too. I heard Randy Goldman and his crazy friends are going around TP'ing people's yards, but I'll be home all night, so he better not try my house, which is 1008 Hillside Avenue even though he probably will because there are so many trees perfect for TP'ing.

Randy Goldman: (entering) Hey, Pete, we need you in the art room. Uh, Joey Bradford just ate tempered paint. (Megan starts fidgeting)

Pete Van Bleet: Oh man, we're gunna have to talk him down. I'm gunna need some Vitamin B, some orange juice, and some Almond Brothers records.

Megan: (standing) Oh, hey, uh, Randy. Uh, hows are you going? (winces)

Randy Goldman: Oh, hey Megan. Nice coconuts. (exits)

Megan: Randy Goldman knows my name.

Sheldon: That's all the time we have.

Megan: Randy Goldman knows my name.

Sheldon: Signing off, I am Charlie Rose, AKA, Sheldon.

Megan: He-he got my name right!!

Sheldon: It's cause those coconuts look like boobs. (Pause) Jazz Times Ten, take us out.

(exit music)

Re: Is anyone literate at this site? (none / 0)

Haha, classic! (My pathetic, illiterate, Clinton-loving ass LOL'd.)

Well, this diary was a fun and informative read. ...Well, I THINK it was fun and informative, at least; it's hard to be certain, since I had a bit of trouble understanding some of the big words. But the author definitely has me pegged. Good thing someone finally called Clinton supporters on our collective stupidity (because that's never been done before).

I'm going to go back to drooling stupidly on my keyboard now.

Even John McCain lusts after teh engels.

Hmmm (2.00 / 2)

Nothing like coming right out and making this a hit diary on "ALL" of the MyDD people and Clinton supporters.

You wrote like an ass, your diary reads like an ass, you act like an ass... so I guess you just want to be an ass.

I am ok with that. Are you?
