[Der Blaue Engel]

and popes of all kinds. To paraphrase the advice I got from my mother as a child:

IF YOU CAN'T SAY ANYTHING NICE, THEN SHUT YOUR FUCKING PIEHOLE!!!!!

Thanks.

2. Most such people would say...

That God requires that they be bigots. You are interfering with their Holy Right to be as bigoted and cruel and vicious and mean as God has ordered them to be. You are persecuting them because of their religion! WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA, YOU GODLESS COMMIE?!

:puke:

3. Clearly, I am the reason all bad things happen in the world

and should be stoned.

According to their kind of magical thinking (which, btw, is part of the criteria for diagnosing schizophrenia and other serious mental illness), I've soured the milk of their dairy cow and put a litter of kittens in their belly.

4. Unfortunately,

Most such people sincerely believe that converting you to their religion, and thus saving you from eternal torment, is the nicest possible thing they can do. No matter how much they piss you off in this world, you'll thank them in the next. This is why they're often so hard to argue with.

5. Did your mom really use the words "fucking piehole"?

[Der Blaue Engel]

No, that's why I used the word "paraphrased." :D

To my knowledge, my mother never uttered the "F word" in her life.

Sorry -didn't mean to disparage your momma in any way!


(but isn't "fucking piehole" such a cathartic expression?)

[Der Blaue Engel]
