Irony is officially dead.


Shorter Brian Lemon: "I'm shocked at how all the rest of you are such racists."

Good God. Lemon is far more ignorant than racist. Why is he being so defensive? Ignorance is easily overcome; racism, less so, especially by a certain age, when you run out of energy to modify your attitudes.

Liberals in their Rosedale salons like thinking of aboriginal people as different.

...ok, that's it. I'm cretined out for today.

That's what happens when you traffic in stereotypes and generalizations, I guess.

Niles said...

'the industry of inuit art is a bit of a fraud' ...but that's ok, because Morriseau didn't participate in *that*.

He just insists on piling it on, Higher and Deeper. I wonder how many Inuit words there are for 'HeadStuckInOwnButtkus'.

Red Tory said...

Does he even remember what he's previously written?

In the comments he says "Norval WAS an accomplished artist - not because he was an aboriginal, but because he was an accomplished artist"

In the post he says "The art is primitive and poor. No more than scribbles."

Yup, no contradiction there!

Oops. Wednesday, I mean.

I wonder if you grasp the irony of you going on about Brian's obvious brain fart considering your own intellectual train wreck re: Wanda Watkins a while back.

CC said...

Well, let's see here, KC, what might the difference be between those two situations? Oh, I know ... I still stand behind what I wrote.

Now what say you toddle off and come up with a second comeback?

There's a good boy.

kitchener conservative said ...Wanda Watkins, Wanda Watkins, blah, blah, blah

Lather, rinse, repeat ... I win again! And I'm still waiting for my prize. Gimme. Now.

Red Tory said...

Owing to your sacrilegious offense to St. Wanda you have no right to say boo about ANYTHING... EVER.

Now, was there some part of that little memo that you didn't get?

CC said...

lulu:

So it really is true, what they say about you chicks and your need for instant gratification.

LuLu said...

cc:

You say that like it's a bad thing. Now gimme.

Braaaawk! Wanda Watkins! Braaaaawk!

Yep it's the answer to cover up all conservative evils, mistakes, immoralities and illegalities. Just bring up something completely irrelevant to the conversation and repeat it until everyone believes it is relevant.

Braaaawk! Bill Clinton! Braaaawk!
Braaaawk! Gore invented the Internet! Braaaawk!

What's sad is these idiots see some equivalence here. With Wanda Watkins you had CC who had a negative reaction and opinion about one specific statement ( that we must all sacrifice our children to make her child's death have meaning) from a single specific person ( Saint Watkins ).

With Lemonaid here, you have one person telling an entire people that their culture and art is irrelevant because he isn't interested in it.

Yep that's exactly the same.

Braaaawk! Nope, just irony. Braaaawk!

LuLu said...

Nope, just irony.

I don't think that word means what you think it means ...

"Incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs: "Hyde noted the irony of Ireland's copying the nation she most hated" (Richard Kain)." *

You might expect someone who makes outrageous statements like "ef you" wouldn't be so quick to point out someone else's outrageous statement.

I keep forgetting that it CC we're talking about, my mistake

LuLu said...

kc, my dear, there's no point in arguing when you so easily excuse Brian's screed as "a brain fart" thus removing all accountability. I thought accountability was important to conservatives - my bad.

And yet, you're so terribly quick to attempt forcing the same on CC for anything he says with the oh-so-tiresome rejoinder of "But, but, Wanda Watkins!!!" Today's conservatives - trying to put the hip back in hypocritical ....

HUH? LuLu 'my dear'....using the term "brain fart" doesn't remove any accountability what so ever.

Where the hell are you coming from?

I'm merely pointing out...ah forget it!

Merry Christmas all!

LuLu said...

And a very merry to you as well, KC.

As to where I'm coming from - a brain fart in my world implies an oopsie not a bigoted diatribe ... where are you coming from?

"Brain Fart" is a Malfunction of the brain on a given thought process, usually occurring during an important situation.

One might describe a bigoted diatribe as such.
