According to this Yahoo! News article, former Carol Burnett Show regular Vicki Lawrence was in Holland, Michigan recently where she made an appearance at a church about a community weight loss and healthy lifestyles initiative.

“Obscene language and inappropriate humor cheapens our dignity as human beings made in the image of God,” he told The Grand Rapids Press for a story published Friday. “It degrades life and relationships. People laugh, but there is no joy in it.”

Lankheet declined to disclose any of Lawrence’s words, other than to say, “God’s name was used in ways that weren’t respectful.”

I dunno. When I laugh at obscene language and inappropriate humor I find that I have a lot of joy in it. Depending on how funny whatever I’m laughing at is. Not that I need obscene language and inappropriate humor to laugh at something. I found that article pretty funny all by itself.

I guess it is just what your into.  The family joke is, “Asshole is a term of endearment at home.”  But hey I’m for whatever makes a person happy and as you all know I’m certainly open unusual humor!

If our existence depends on our ability to reflect our conscious on our given waking reality we choose to live in, isn’t it safe to say we have no conscious? Infact no mind at all, our mind must be the reality and whats in our head just a mirror to reflect it on.  Are the thoughts your having truly yours? or simply a reconstruction of a situation that has already happened which you now choose to elaborate on.  If everything is speculation until proven then we can only speculate we have a conscious system in which to think and comprehend.  GO BACK TO BED!!

please disregard anything you have just read.

Forgive me SEB for I have sinned. I have sinned against humanity. My sins are so horrible that I can only whisper them.  whisper whisper whisper
See I told you they were bad. Now you want me to die don’t you, you want to wait till i go to sleep and take a dump in my face, you want to take my order at Taco Bell Then spit in my taco, you want to drink my 2 liter of Mello Yello then fill it back up with your urine dont you. DONT YOU!?!? Whoa….sorry…I got a little carried away there….. I forgot what I was talking about…....um anyway, have a day filled with sorrow and grief then run around your workplace wearing nothing but briefs. Have a Day.

Hmmm. Seems I’m attracting more than my fair share of oddballs these days.

I like my fucking filthy language, damn it! 
Yes, overuse of the seven heavy words, damn shit fuck bitch bastard ass and hell, makes them lose their potency in average conversation.  However, one looney preacher can’t speak for the entire trucker, sailor, adolescent, and adult community, so rock the fuck on!

Mello Yellow is garbage, all hail Dr Pepper!

Mirth, honor and hatred.  All are me, throughout and complete, and I indulge when and where I choose.  Therein, I will have the knowledge of self and objective, the fury to carry it out ruthlessly, and the smile of a deed done and peace to come to bring me home.

“Obscene language and inappropriate humor cheapens our dignity as human beings made in the image of God, It degrades life and relationships. People laugh, but there is no joy in it.?

‘inappropriate humor’ ?
George Carlin said: “I think it’s the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately.”
I like his take on religion too. “Results like these do not belong on the résumé of a supreme being.”
I wasn’t brought up with any religiosity; I’m lucky. LOL

I’ve discovered that it all boils down to brain wiring: your brain is wired to worship magic or it isn’t, either it’s wired to utilize logic or it isn’t, either it’s analytical of myths or it isn’t.

Oh how I love that man!!! Because of him and people like him, I’ve come to feel it’s my duty as a patriot to deliberately cross lines in order to make a point.
