The achingly bad amateur 'satirists' on this site could learn a lot from that post. :patriot:

...wish I'd thought of it!

:P

it was there, in plain sight, and i didn't see it. so thanks for pointing it out. that post is going to become a major DU classic!

My biggest regret is not having written it. :D

Hilarious!

sets of posters. Know it all snarky fucks who claim to have "been there and done that" and know exactly what its like...and what should be done
And the idealists who feels overwhelmed by the tragedy and see's not much happening.
I butted heads with that first group last night, what a cadre of glib, articulate and empty people.
Who think that "structure" is is the first ingredient.
These types need directions because they have seemingly been trained to NOT think for themselves.

"Armchair quarterbacks who can't move groceries from their car to the kitchen without breaking the eggs are experts in a devastating natural disaster-turned- humanitarian relief emergency of biblical proportion."

That post is funny because it goes to both sides of last nights flamefest.
The so-called 'expert' gets it in the ass as does the idealist who can't understand why the rescue teams can't fill a back pack with gear and water and do something, anything.

What was sad (and it's still happening) is the cadre of old school DU'ers pouncing en masse on the idealists.
Of course, a ratpack is still full of rats.

Burns my ass to see such schoolyard tactics here.

Carry on.

As one idealist who was flamed, I thank you.

My part in it was deleted...lolz...
Don't let the ratpack get to you, they suck, they know it.
I winced as you and another poster took the brunt of a certain poster's uh...expertismology...:evilgrin:


To Idealists!
:toast:

there, it was quid pro quo in effect... keep the idealism but also look to see the realities as well, i lost my idealism in regards to these operations many years ago as a defense mechanism to sanity...

of some dumbfuck who can't shit without permission.
Some of us don't need permission to do what we do.


You want to ratpack this thread too?
I make no bones, I don't like you.
Go away.
And take your defense mechanisms with you.

you dont need permission to do what you do lol im shocked that you even leave your parents basement you plamf...

No?

Go find your pack.
And take your best three day old underwear and your stupid little grammatically fucked up insults with you.
Once again, no bones, I don't like you, go away.

for sure...

The first was locked several hours ago. Those who were there know what I'm talking about.
