Hmm… something’s not quite right here…
Try looking at it from a different fangle.
Yeah, get a better fangle on that dangle!
After all they call him “The Dark Knight”, so….
Morgan Freeman in: Blackman Begins.
Blackman?
*shivers* I hated that post!
Which post?
The one with the white dude wearing the pink undies.
Great, now I got that image stuck in my head! *pukes*
It’s a SUPER close up of the undies too……..
I had already forgotten that one. You really need to get out more. Of course, you are at an impressionable age but there are so many worse things out there, and if you gradually get used to them you will stop being shocked and be able to decide how much they really matter in the Grand Scheme of Things.
(click name for horror)
Well, that wasn’t so bad.
Do you freak out if you stand in front of a mirror in your undies?
Nah, I don’t wear undies!

Just kidding!
She’s a woman, and a married one at that. I’m sure this is nothing new for her.
So the logo isn’t really a winged mammal at all — it’s a stylized “M”?
Yeah, symbol of Matman.
He wins by getting evildoers to walk over him.
Yeah, that’ll show them!
It is hard to be a superhero’s assistant when the last script cast you as god.
WIN!
Maybe YOUR children are all fangle. Here, the children are all above average.
Are the women strong and the men good-looking?
Why thank you! *blushes*
If ALL children are above average, wouldn’t you then have a new average out of all those children. Therefore, some would be under average and some would be average?
Shh!
…….my brain just borked!
No – you just take the average of a larger population. All the CHILDREN are above average, but that’s the average of the ENTIRE population. Therefore…
“All the children are above average” is a joke line I cribbed shamelessly from Garrison Keillor (bluejade obviously knew the ref), and yes, that is not statistically possible, although it seems that many school boards have that expectation.
It is a belief that when you are comfortable with a place, some things are a little better here than anywhere else.
check out prairiehome.org and listen to some of the archives.
I’ve gotten out of the habit of listening; my life got crazy for a long time. I think it’s time to go back. Ah, “Lives of a Cowboy…”
Riders in the Sky are good, also!
I haven’t listened in awhile either. Now I’m going to want to but may not be able to because of my crazy work schedule, bummer.
They archive it online at their web site. I think they have it in podcast download, too.
Oh grud, now I’m going to have “The Young Lutheran’s Guide To The Orchestra” running through my head all day (complete with bible blues performance by the piccolo).
Thanks for the reminder! I thought those lines sounded familiar but I haven’t heard of Garrison Keillor in quite a while.
He’s on Radio Old Fart (i.e. Radio National) on Sunday nights. Brought to you by Powdermilk Biscuits.
He’s also taken to writing a newspaper column that appears in our local paper every Friday. He suffered a stroke recently, but only missed one column and was back at it the next week. He also does a daily radio bit called the “Writer’s Almanac” in which he reflects upon writers for whom the particular date is significant, and ends by quoting from a poem of particular poignancy. It’s only a 10-minute show, and I don’t know if you can get it down there (I think you can get the podcasts from the American National Public Radio site), but I find it nice to have a thoughtful, literary moment each morning.
Heh, exactly. I don’t see what’s so hard to understand here, SS. Simply, if the average is set by the children, and ALL the children go above the previous average, then a new average is set, and they become normal! (Which, since they apparently were all the same in this theoretical explanation, they already were normal, being at the same level to begin with.)
*kills self*
All the women are strong and all the men are good looking.
I’ve always wanted a high quality fangle.
I want a new fangle.
Might be able to finangle one.
*rips Stan’s fangle off, then throws a new set at him*
If you don’t normally check their links, make an exception; there is some seriously high grade LOLROFHYS Engrish on the far end of that one!
Oh yes! This is your engrish on drugs!
Yes, it’s completely batty!
I had quite thoroughly perused it when it first appeared, but nonetheless it was deja-lol all over again!
That’s going to be stuck in my head all day now: “Spiderbat, spiderbat, does whatever a spiderbat does…”
This is the correct answer to Jack Nicholson’s question of “Where does he get all of those wonderful Toys?”
or was that The Joker?
The Joker, as played by Jack Nicholson, so I understand the confusion.
You sure it wasn’t Jack Nicholson, as played by The Joker?
That would explain a lot.
Reality is suppressive burdensome, and overrated
I reject your reality and substitute my own.
I suspect you meant to put this in some other place, but in any case, I doubt you know my reality!
( psst. nested to paws4thot. i know you are a fellow reality outlier, 4 or 5 sigmas away from the standard deviates. )
Oh, yeah!
Where does that put me?
sign me,
curious
Reality is a statistical study. The more matches you get with any group, the more you fall into their accepted norm of beliefs. The more controlling the group is, the more matches you must score to align with their error probability width profile.
Never confuse the facts with the need to align with their beliefs.
I will willingly accept any one that believes that there is the truth, the facts, and what really happened, as a outlier observer. You are one of us jesters that reviews history by seeing the reaction when the absurd is injected into reality and that rationality is the cause of the absurd.
I also believe that I would never join any organization that would accept someone like me as a member.
“rationality is the cause of the absurd?” I’m having a little trouble here. Would you tot that paragraph up again?
Are you talking about the compartmentalization of Western thought?
The greatest atrocities against man and nature have always had rationality rigidly set into dogma. Enforcing the letter of the rules over their intent, or rationalizing to change the intent and hijack it for a different need is the basis of the absurd.
I left my thought in the glove compartment and it ended up in a salvage yard.
Now I get it.
Rationalizing the absurd means hijacking reality. And, that is linked to compartmentalization and regarding phenomena in isolation.
Get your mind out of the glove box, and back in the gutter!
If thinking outside the box doesn’t work, try thinking inside a different box.
Or boxing inside a different think.
Or differentiating a thinking box.
I have a couple of skids of different sized boxes stored in my barn. Does that help?
Sounds like plenty of thinking room but it’s not going to help if they’re on the skids.
In the words of my namesake: “The hell?”
Methinks you confuse or otherwise conflate “rationality” with “rationalization”.
The greatest crimes against humanity and nature are irrational at their core, e.g. Nazi-ism, religion, etc.
(Does that last invoke the Hitler rule?)
I have pretty much given up on the proper use of the word “rationalization,” since more people use the word improperly than properly and therefore misunderstand me. But I disagree most emphatically with your attribution of blame to irrationality for humanity’s greatest crimes, because to place a value upon anything requires an emotional, and therefore irrational, judgment. The most coldly rational, calculating people you will ever meet are the true sociopaths.
I just cleaned and steamed my hat. The solvents and mercury vapors must have given me a brief spurt of lucidity.
This a site for humor and absurdity. I like to put in some postings that trip people’s thinking. It is the internet equivalent of watching people do a face plant on their keyboard.
My original comment was to question whether The Joker or the pop culture image of Jack Nicholson was closer to reality.
I don’t have time for playing whack-a-troll. The last time debate of humor.vs.the indefensible came up it became the pedobear posting with 450+ responses.
Absurd rationality is happening now with people convincing others to detonate suicide vests because they are afraid of change and losing power and respect. They feel that everything would be better if they could return to a romanticized past.
Pol Pot felt that the educated and upper class had no respect for the dignity of hard work. The cities had no means to support the unemployed and eliminate crime and poverty. He decided to stop the mechanization of agriculture and reform everyone’s work ethic and attitude in what became known as the killing fields.
I think you actually have to call someone a nazi in order for Godwin’s Law to be invoked, but I stand (well, actually sit) to be corrected.
ISTR that you can not call someone a Nazi, or mention Hitler deliberately, simply to invoke Godwin’s Law.
We all need to unload sometimes.
If we didn’t allow ourselves to blur the boundaries, we’d be back in the real world. hell with that.
I have found that I much prefer joining disorganizations.
WOW!! you cleaned your hat?? *looks at faithful old hat on floorboards, feels guilty* *whacks at mud and tries to adjust brim*
(Psst. sneaky tribute to the mad hatter in the new Alice movie)
Wouldn’t surprise me. How many different “Batmans” have there been over the years?
Maybe the manufacturer got this copy from Fox News.
Is it Glenn Beck in that tight black outfit? I knew it!
>:(
Nah. Glenn Beck recently admitted that his doctor had told him he had the “worst muscle tone he’d ever seen.” I’d guess the doctor was not inspecting the jaw or throat muscles at the time.
From what I’ve heard, they are not capable of doing their job and keeping his mouth shut.
And why should he keep his mouth shut? He is telling the horrible truth!
Well, at least we can agree that what he says is horrible.
But it is true.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Oh, my.
I mean no disrespect, but, please… books.
Books on logic and argument (in the classic sense). Read them, learn them. Then you can tell real reasoning from blatantly false.
There are people making reasoned arguments from all political sides, but they are not the Becks or Olbermans, the Coulters or the Moores.
And, not to get too serious on our happy little site, but the future of human society literally depends on younger folks knowing the difference….
Sorry, really bummed out this morning.
Let us not forget critical thinking. What an abandoned pursuit…
And because we know that the future depends on the younger folks, we have hired bluejade to educate ShadowSplicer. All teenagers will not turn out to be great, but if we can reform one of them to, think of the possibilities!
Talmudic proverb: To save a life is to save the whole world.
My addition: To form a life is to reform the world.
That’s why the most important job that any of us ever have on this planet is to be a parent. And it’s a really tough job, and it costs LOTS of money, rather than paying any. But the two forms of payment–the love of a child, and to assist in the formation of a worthwhile person–are priceless.
I think they see it as their job to present to us the Village Idiot.
Heh. I like to watch him cry. It gives me a creepy feeling of power. Then I go into schlock.
I would love to see Morgan Freeman as Batman.
With all due respect to Marvelous Morgan, he’s getting a little long in the tooth. Maybe a nice wizard or pirate role?
How about a god from a different cult? After all, he doesn’t want to be typecast as yahweh.
Anything, as long as he talks.
Uh, Dr. Handle. I think Morgan Freeman did play God already. He was the God in the movie Bruce Almighty with Jim Carrey.
Best. Movie. EVUR!
I was suggesting that he play god from a different brand of religion, having already done Yahweh in “Bruce Almighty” and also “Evan Almighty”. He’d make a great Ra, perhaps, if someone wanted to do a take on Egyptology.
Hail to the sun god!
He is the fun god!
Ra Ra Ra!
I see him fitting comfortably into the role of Ahura Mazda, the positive god of the Zoroastrians. (The Zoroastrians were very dualistic in their thinking, and had two chief deities, one the epitome of negativity and the other the positive pole.)
I’d like to see him in a really good film where he plays a bad guy. (Please don’t mention The Contract!) I don’t know about “fitting comfortably” but I’m sure he could be convincing.
“Wanted”, perhaps?
Morgan Freeman as Cthulhu! “Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn!” (Ha, choke on that, mod-bot).
He doesn’t really have enough tentacles, does he? Perhaps Cthulu should be played by Bill Nighy – he has tentacle experience.
He stops the criminals with his soothing voice.
A Gordon Freeman action figure would be so much better. (Crowbar sold separately)
ok the morgan freeman thing is engrish… but its obviously two pictures put together… why?
Oh my goodness. I actually cried laughing at this. What the hell is a fangle?! It sounds as though it should be real, and yet…
BATMAN!!!!!!!!
Another painful MIchael jackson joke.
