Gee, I Wish I Would Have Thought of That

Finding and posting comments and insights by others who cleverly express what many of us often can’t find the words for.

As bloggers, especially those of us who write on social, political and religious views, we will have our share of trolls.

Many of us have in polite fashion, usually on our ABOUT page, indicated how we expect visitors to respond to our posts and warn against uncivil behavior for those who hold opposing views.  Perhaps hiding these comments on another page isn’t the best way to prevent this up front.  Even better is to do it in an acerbic, satirical style.  To wit, I present the perfect example found on Barry Ritholtz’s blog that ought to stop the dumbest and worst possible trolls dead in their tracks before posting any response.

Please use the comments to demonstrate your own ignorance, unfamiliarity with empirical data and lack of respect for scientific knowledge. Be sure to create straw men and argue against things I have neither said nor implied. If you could repeat previously discredited memes or steer the conversation into irrelevant, off topic discussions, it would be appreciated. Lastly, kindly forgo all civility in your discourse . . . you are, after all, anonymous

Read this one on Facebook yesterday

Two hillbillies walked into a restaurant. While having a bite to eat, they talked about their moonshine operation.

Suddenly, a woman at a nearby table who is eating a sandwich, began to cough. After a minute or so, it became apparent that she was in real distress.

One of the hillbillies looked at her and said, “Kin ya swallar?”

The woman shook her head no.

Then he asked, “Kin ya breathe?”

The woman began to turn blue and shook her head no.

The hillbilly walked over to the woman, lifted up her dress, yanked down her drawers, and quickly gave her right butt cheek a lick with his tongue.

The woman was so shocked that she had a violent spasm, and the obstruction flew out of her mouth. As she began to breathe again, the Hillbilly walked slowly back to his table.

His partner said, “Ya know, I’d heerd of that there ‘Hind Lick Maneuver’ but I ain’t niver seed nobody do it!”
