1. It is considered masculine to take a high powered rifle and shoot a non-threatening herbivore from a safe distance. Hmmmm, sounds more like a girl scout activity than a mansport to me. I mean, real men don't kill things by shooting them. They kill them by rassling them. I mean, American Football is a sport where you can still get a severe cuncussion dispite wearing a helmet. If you can play a sport where all the armor does is keep you alive and unparalized(on a few rare occassions, it failed one or both those duties), dispite what the "armor always=pussy sport" group says, you are pretty masculine.

2. Someone was proud of the Tower of London. Really? Proud of a building whose history is written in the blood of its many victims. Really?

3. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals or PETA. Here, you have a group of people who have, in the name of saving animals, killed more animals than the groups they oppose for killing animals. Isn't that like nazis opposing a group for anti-semetism? Wow. Hmmm.

4. If you hate idiots, you hate everyone. By hating the stupid, you hate yourself. By hating stupidity, you hate your very way of life. It's true.

By hating stupidity, I hate everyone, and everyone hates me for hating them because they hate me for hating them. If this vicious circle makes me hate myself for some strange reason, then by all means, hate me for being stupid.

Second'd.

Who was proud of the tower of london?

im guessing the people that opened it and the people that sent people there

And where's the amusing things?

Elaborate?

the tower of London is damn fun though I always preferred the tower of York myself

So yeah I’m proud not because of some patriotism I’m proud we have such an awesome place to visit every few years:D

I checked PETA's homepage... it seems they oppose, among other things, animal testing. I now officially hate PETA! Man! They have killed more animals than have been killed in animal tests world wide? Those bastards!

Someone let me know when the 'amusing things' in this thread actually start.

Yes, I was waiting for that too.

Ionesco's inspired thread, I guess.

Try doing that with Cape Buffalo. It's one of the few animals who have a 50% chance of killing the hunter.

It's easy to hate something you are, espescially if you realize that you are that thing, and you are seeking to make yourself no longer that sort of thing.

Well evidently some jack ass thought it was funny to steal all my bathing supplies...soap, shampoo, toothpaste, AND my toothbursh.. WTF??? who steals a toothbrush?

Well you need something to get those stuborn stains off the toilet bowl. If it reappears then you should really start to get concerned.

Someone who needs to clean small spaces??????!!!!??????




eeeeeeeeew. I feel dirty for thinking that.

Hey, I've been using that toothbrush to clean my foreskin every day for the past six months...

Archery is always an amusing sport. At least to me...

Not if you use an autocannon.

Damn you DK, I was having such a pleasant day as well :(

Hunters usually use large bore high powered rifles.

Not that it's very effective - half the time, you only wound the buffalo, and it lives quite long enough to stomp the hunter into a pulp.

I always thought it was funny that Jesus is sometimes called the "lamb of God" and we always ate lamb on Easter in my family.

It's not as funny now that I am a "grown up" and I know the full meaning of "lamb of God" but it was hilarious and confusing as a child.

Hmmm amusing things I know.

I know that if you pay the Nurses $20 while recovering from surgery, they don't bother you every 5 frikin minutes to take your blood pressure and tempature! God I still don't know why they did that, I mean the first few hours I can understand, but after awhile you just gotta stop it! I guess the nurses I had, had OCD.

Well, I hunt with these, ok?

Archery is always an amusing sport. At least to me...That may have something to do with the fact that you possibly never had to supervise large groups of young children being given access to dangerous weaponry, full knowing it would be your fault if they managed to skewer somebody.

That and the "Fire at will!" "Where's Will?" jokes... grrr...

A clean foreskin is a happy foreskin.

Good. No point in doing it if there's no risk. I say hunting should be restricated to game that has a better then evens chance of killing the hunter.

and remember, your foreskin needs lots of care and attention!

Try hunting grizzly up in an aspen thicket in Alaska. The bear outweighs you by a factor of 10, is impervious to bullets (unless you hit them high in the spine), and can run 35 mph - substantially faster than any human.

See that would probably be fun, the adreneline rush if you survive would be immense. Of course you should only have a bolt action rifle with a single bullet, that would make the engagement fair, you have to be perfect first time or you get dead, there are no second chances in nature.

Yes, but it was nature that created us, made us smarter than the animals, so it's not our fault that we pawned them.

But like I say, where is the fun in that?

Even if you have additional cartridges in a bolt or lever action, it usually doesn't any good if you muff the first shot.

I have a frined who uses the following as a sig:

Fighting for peac is like fucking for virginity.

Now that's funny!;)

I think that was it.:)

This was half amusing...

Yes, but a grizzly can't climb trees, so anyone pissing one off then running away should be thanked (posthumously) for removing themselves from our gene pool.

4. If you hate idiots, you hate everyone. By hating the stupid, you hate yourself. By hating stupidity, you hate your very way of life. It's true.

I hate these "everyones stupid," things they're almost as irratating and smug as "everyone's stupid but me."

If everyone is stupid then whats the baseline, how do you determine smart? Sorry man, even at my most cynical I know some pretty smart cats, and I can't just be lucky. Sure they make mistakes, think some things I don't agree with, but I'm not going to go around slapping everyone with the stupid stamp just to make myself believe I'm 'in on the joke.' It's arrogant and short sighted, I'm afraid.

EDIT: Since deer commonly come within 20 feet of me and don't seem to care it seems pretty lame to shoot them. Might as well shoot cats. I don't get it. But I don't get a lot of things other people do, that's why I don't do them. About as involved in that as I should be.
