Ken, in Hell, wrote one of the most non-swearword-using putdowns I have ever read outside of John Diefenbaker in Hansard:
quote: So you have chosen to promote the cause by acting out the role of a all-boys-together, arrogant, arse-licking, brain-dead-anglo-catholic, carping, elitist, exclusionist, faux-aesthete, gin-swilling, hole-in-a-corner, incense-swinging, irrelevancy-wallowing, irrelevant, lace-covered, misdirecting, misogynist, muck-racking, mud-slinging, obscurantist, obstructionist, out-of-touch, over-fastidious, port-and-lemon, precious, precisionist, purblind, sanctimonious, sectarian, sentimental, sky-high, sneering, supercilious, tat-fondling, Tory-party-at-prayer, whinging, whining, women-hating snob.

RooK posting on the TICTH thread made the following statement that tickled me and I thought was worth preserving...

A fab little gem from Firenze:
"perpetually obliging hot tottie"
Would make a fantastic Ship title
quote: From her post on Mark Driscoll's article about pastor's wives: There's all the rockstar babe-magnet stuff - which I don't doubt. Pastors/ministers have an in to people's lives, and swooning female congregants are nothing new in the history of the church. A bad consequence, IMFO, of male leadership. I don't know which is worse - celibacy, or this kind of snorting, dominant-male sexuality. And the peeved insistence that the payback for not succumbing to all this adulation, is a wife who is perpetually obliging hot tottie. In these circles I suspect she is also supposed to produce and rear a brood of children, be unpaid secretary, informal social worker - and smiling helpmeet at all times - without, for an instant, 'letting herself go'. Poor bitch.
The whole thing was fantastic really.

Someone posted this a little while back:
Blackadder: Baldrick, have you no idea what irony is? Baldrick: Yeah, it's just like goldy and bronzey but it's irony.
And this was from a Purg thread ages ago: Maybe the only answer we really get to prayers is "I love you." Sometimes it's hard to hear.
Sorry but I don't know who! Any claimers?

Perhaps only one who is devoutly C of E has the right to fall on the floor laughing at this quote - and I am one to exercise my rights freely.
the coiled spring introduced a thread in Purgatory regarding "Elton John gives interview in which he say organised religion should be banned because of attitude towards gays."
My favourite amongst coiled spring's responses to his own thread was this:
quote: I can see Elton the Lad having trouble with Islam if UK goes over to Shia law, but don`t know why he would have a problem with the C of E With a bit of an effort on his part, should quickly become a pri-matey and wear one of those funny card hats to cover his bald spot.

Ah, we could have a whole thread just on Sineisms.
Very recently: quote: Not Feeding the Troll doesn't allow one to be Irate, Holier Than Thou, or Claiming The Moral High Ground, which is the way a lot of folks get their rocks off, figuratively (I hope) speaking.
On the other hand Feeding the Troll is a way of feeling you've done a Brave And Noble Thing without actually having done much of anything. Plus it gives one a Warm Glow of Self-Satisfaction.
Who could resist?

And now a message from John Donne: quote: ...all mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated; God employs several translators; some pieces are translated by age, some by sickness, some by war, some by justice; but God’s hand is in every translation, and his hand shall bind up all our scattered leaves again for that library where every book shall lie open to one another.

From Foxy on the thread in Heaven about loving Christmas:
quote: I am utterly slain by the idea of Almighty God, Creator of the Universe, being born amongst us as a helpless baby in a stable, warmed by the breath of animals. Wow.
Absolutely!
Though I normally reference very witty posts, this is one time when no Franciscan could resist a quote that is so warm and spot on.

Riverfalls demonstrates the proper application of 1 Corinthians 13 to nurks:
quote: 3If I give away all I have, and if I give my body to be burned, but if I do not love people, I get nothing out of it. 4Nurks is patient and kind. Nurks is not jealous. Nurks is not proud and does not boast. 5Nurks does not do things that are not nice. Nurks does not just think of itself. Nurks does not get angry. Nurks holds no wrong feelings in the heart. 6Nurks is not glad when people do wrong things. But it is always glad when they do right. 7Nurks forgives everything. Nurks is always trusting, and always hoping, and never gives up.

I know you all will agree this needs to be archived:
Miss Sarkycow, on nebie flamebait: quote: Why do we periodically get random newbies who come across the Ship and think that the best possible way to have fun here is to come to Hell and see: 1.How stupid a thing they can say in an OP.
2.How many people can provide a rebuttal within 24 hours.
3.How many 6yr old insults they can hurl.
Is there some board elsewhere having a competition? Because surely the chance of lots and lots of random people all independently deciding that's the best way forward is too small to be believable. Or am I underestimating the stupidity of the human race again?
And why do they all say some variation on these lines:
quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I wanted to see how hot it gets down here. Your insults are nothing to me. I am TEH UBER FLAMEGOD I will win this. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not a fucking competition.
