"Oh, you're one of those sodomites,"Savage said. "You should only get AIDS and die, you pig. How's that? Why don't you see if you can sue me, you pig. You got nothing better than to put me down, you piece of garbage. You have got nothing to do today, go eat a sausage and choke on it."

He was fired the next day.

You could partially blame metameme's disorienting post, but with anything that's recent news, you should at least scroll down the page a screen or two and see if anything looks familiar....

I know, I know. I get excited too. You should have seen my first post.....

usually i could care less about double posts because chances are the original post was about a week ago, and since i'm the television generation, i've already forgotten what i did five minutes ago (simpsons rip i know)... but this one, wow delmoi... this is the fastest double post ever...

namespan, y2karl:
I am going to eat your souls.

On second thought, I just had dinner.

Was he really kidding? If so, I dig being called a piece of garbage. If said in jest, it really is more clever than "worthless cunt." Either way, it should be stated for the record that I do have better things to do, but that I will probably never do them.

I'd like to mention the Cahklar Twins, here, but I'd also like to mention that I totally understand the meaningless of that phrase to anyone who isn't me or the guy I was talking to at work this afternoon when I made the phrase up. But it definitely has to do with (1) Boston, (2) South Park, and (3) mainstream beer advertisements.
