Callan, on the "Jeremy Corbyn Out" thread in Purgatory commenting on Labour challengers for the leadership of that party:
"If the recent Tory leadership election had been held by Labour, I suspect that we would currently be in the middle of a gripping contest between Stephen Crabb and Liam Fox."

Eutychus in 'The other cheek' thread in purgatory.
quote: I think revenge is a bit like masturbation. It's the prospect of release rather than the situation after it that drives people on. And once you've done it, you find out it doesn't actually satisfy anything.

From the Hell thread about Ryan Lochte [a badly behaved American swimmer, for those who have never heard of him]:
Schroedinger's Cat: ".....He doesn't represent the US. He represents the entitled, wealthy classes, the supra-national class of people who are more loathsome the more we see of them. "
to which Sioni Sais responded: " Has Trump found a running mate?"

mdijon in the US Presidential Election thread:
quote: Do you suppose that Trump might actually be a lizard in disguise*? I'm not saying I know, I'm just saying some people have asked. I mean he does have those small hands. Could be. Has his campaign made a statement? Well, I don't know, I haven't heard one if they have. Why do you think they haven't made a statement, seems like it would be the easiest thing in the world to do.
* OK, not very good disguise.

Wow. Good answer. quote: Originally posted by mousethief: quote: Originally posted by Steve Langton: quote: Originally posted by fausto: quote: Originally posted by Steve Langton: it's ended up something of an unholy mess with no clear stance on anything....
Or perhaps it would be better described as a holy mess?
"Holy mess" is something of a contradiction in terms
So you're saying your DM doesn't allow Chaotic Good?

On that note: Anyone can get mad. Anyone can fire off nasty remarks an Hell. But you have to respect the person who takes the time and effort to turn their Hellfire into a masterpiece:
quote: Originally posted by lilBuddha: Jesus wept!* [Unfortunate Target], I am revoking your right to criticise [Subject of Hell Call]** Your inability to grasp the use of examples implies a level of mental constipation*** only slightly lower than his.****
*Figure of speechº, I do not mean he literally wept.ⁱ **This is sarcasm¹, I do not have this authority² and likely would not use it if I did. ***Also a figure of speechº ****This is slight hyperbole.³
º a word or phrase used in a nonliteral sense to add rhetorical force to a spoken or written passage ¹ the use of ironyₐ to mock or convey contempt ² the power or right to give orders, make decisions, and enforce obedience. ³ exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literallyₔ
ₐ the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect
ₔ This definition is for the benefit of everyone as very few people get it right.
ⁱ Not saying he did not weep, either. I never met him and, like I said earlier, it is a figure of speech.*

Oh that is brilliant, Martin!
I very much enjoyed this, from Callan, on the US Presidential election thread:
quote: I know that Miss Universe's are supposed to avoid controversy but in the vanishingly unlikely event that I ever got the gig and Donald Trump had a pop at my looks I'd be like: "Dude, I'm Miss fucking Universe, and I got the job because I am smoking hot and want greater understanding between nations and you, sunshine, are a fat xenophobic twat with a rug on his head, so go fuck yourself". If the current Miss Universe requires a speech writer my rates are very reasonable.

From the tears of tragedy, the soil of Quotes File brilliance is watered:
quote: Originally posted by Callan: Originally posted by RuthW:
quote: If you haven't seen the reports of this, say so, and I'll post links.
I was tempted to ignore this because I'm depressed enough already, but better know the worst.
I'm sorely tempted to revert to the archives and remind myself what we were arguing about during the Bush era. This is turning into that line from Crocodile Dundee. "OMG! That's a really bad Republican administration" "Nah, that's not a really bad Republican administration. THIS is a really bad Republican administration!".

On a thread where several posters suggest that solving the problem of cell phones ringing in church is dead easy, and only idiots get caught out:
Originally posted by Utrecht Catholic: quote: One good advice, leave your Phone at home or in your car.
Originally posted by mousethief: quote: Oh how blessed are ye of perfect memory! How beloved of God! What ye put down, ye remember to pick up again. What ye take off, ye remember to put on again. What ye turn off, ye remember to turn on again.
Therefore we entreat: Pray for us of bad memory. Remember us in our misery, we beg of you. For we fear to put things down, lest we forget to pick them up again. We fear to take things off, lest we forget to put them on again. We fear to turn things off, lest we forget to turn them back on again.
Look not upon us with scorn, ye mighty ones. Consider with pity our plight. For we have not chosen to be forgetful, but accept our miserable condition as best we can, and strive to cope by whatever means we may find.
Therefore do we pray unto you, who are blessed by the Almighty with abilities we can only dream of, that ye might lay off, and give unto us a break that doth fuck.
-------------------- Er, this is what I've been up to (book). Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down!

From a discussion about valid, invalid, illicit, and irregular consecration of the Eucharist:
quote: Originally posted by Karl: Liberal Backslider: Spell Failure Table (Consecrate Elements)
Roll d10
1-5: Bread and wine remain bread and wine. Power points lost
6-8: Elements transmuted, but turn immediately back again as effect fails to achieve permanence.
9: Bread toasted; wine mulled
10: Spell over-reaches; accidents also transformed, making a right mess on the altar.
I hope it's as funny outside its more serious context.

quote: Originally posted by RooK: The thing is, people and ideas are not static with respect to each other. And, fundamentally, the differentiation of the two is absolutely necessary for a society to flourish.
Ideas need to be tested, and mistrusted until they withstand some reasonable scrutiny. A brutal culling of weak ideas is the machinery of reason. By exposing ourselves to many ideas, we get to reap the benefits of testing them against each other and thereby improving our understandings. Meanwhile, while people are one of the ways that ideas are carried, it helps if they're afforded some basic respect and forgiveness for sometimes not being right...
Sometimes I worry that we scare away people who disagree with some of us. But then I look at how little we agree with each other - other than on the value of being decent fucking people. And it seems obvious that what we scare away are mostly just shitty people.

1/ The Bible is THE WORD OF GOD
2/ If I do what it says the I get THE POWER OF GOD (not unlike the power of castle Grayskull I imagine)
3/ Power is always defined by "the right" and "the wrong." Find "the wrong" in you then find people to give it to (poors , poofs and peculiars always a good start). Pour out your hate for yourself on them and use THE POWER OF GOD to justify it.
4/ Sit pretty.
There. Easy. Good job I never do any of that shit.
