rant alert

As most of you know, I tweet our TPC posts on Twitter all day, so I am exposed to many, many wonderful people, but also a whole lot of truly deranged types. After awhile it adds up. Then I compound that by making the mistake of watching the Sunday Talkers, and bam! I occasionally gotta vent.

This is one of those times. So forgive me for this extended Moment of Negative, but my poor head is about to explode. Feel free to jump in any time with your own “had-its.” I’m certain I forgot a few and may add more later. And with that…

I’ve had it with:

Stupid people.

Rape jokes.

Extremists.

Liars.

Fear-mongers.

Bullies.

Needless misunderstandings.

BP ads boasting about awesome Gulf coast vacation spots that are even better now that they’ve killed everything off with their deadly oil pollution.

Sunday talk show hosts.

Sunday talk show guests.

Sunday talk shows.

Conservative pundits.

Loud overtalking/constant interrupting.

Trolls.

Nasty trolls.

Judgmental righties.

Judgmental lefties.

Phonies.

Did I mention stupid people?

Dishonesty.

War on Women.

War on Voters.

War on LGBT.

Hypocrisy.

Bigots.

Racists.

People who don’t listen.

People who judge blog posts and articles solely by their titles without reading the post itself.

People who judge blog posts and articles solely by their titles without reading the post itself, then comment inappropriately.

People who comment on posts without having followed the links in the post that would answer any questions they have.

People on Twitter who assume all retweets are endorsements, as opposed to realizing that sometimes a retweet is simply to point out an interesting, different, or controversial p.o.v.

People on Twitter who consistently confuse “lose” and “loose,” “it’s” and “its,” “your” and “you’re” (not typos).

People on Twitter WHO INSIST ON USING ALL CAPS.

People on Twitter who don’t provide context to their tweets– sometimes threads are not traceable or visible– who tweet things like, “Me too!” or “When?” or “How can you say that?!”

Republicans who can’t see beyond their own donors.

Republicans who can’t see beyond their own power grabs.

Republicans who can’t see beyond their own ideology.

Climate change deniers.

People with no sense of humor.

People who think they have a sense of humor, but don’t.

What a bunch of dumbasses. If they are “surprised” by these reactions they’re bloody sheltered idjits. Love Tim Wise’s rebuttal in the video.

(CNN) — Campus Republicans at the University of California Berkeley have cooked up a storm of controversy with their plans for a bake sale.

But it’s not your everyday collegiate fundraiser they’ve got in mind. They’ve developed a sliding scale where the price of the cookie or brownie depends on your gender and the color of your skin.

During the sale, scheduled for Tuesday, baked goods will be sold to white men for $2.00, Asian men for $1.50, Latino men for $1.00, black men for $0.75 and Native American men for $0.25. All women will get $0.25 off those prices.

“The pricing structure is there to bring attention, to cause people to get a little upset,” Campus Republican President Shawn Lewis, who planned the event, told CNN-affiliate KGO. “But it’s really there to cause people to think more critically about what this kind of policy would do in university admissions.”

Lewis says it’s a way to make a statement about pending legislation that would let the California universities consider race or national origin during the admission process.
