DU rescues a Haitian earthquake victim.

One day, in Haiti...

DUer #1: No it isn't.
DUer #2: Yes it is.
DUer #1: No it isn't.
DUer #2: Yes it is.
DUer #1: Hey, check out that dude.
Haitian man: Please help me! My leg is trapped under a collapsed building!
DUer #2: No it isn't.
DUer #1: Yes it is.
DUer #3: Yes it is. Unrec.
DUer #2: Why'd you unrec?
DUer #3: Because your thread sucks.
Haitian man: Please! Help!
DUer #2: MY THREAD DOESN'T SUCK. YOU SUCK.
DUer #3: Here, give him a bottle of water.

DUer #4: Yes it is.
DUer #3: No it isn't.

DUer #2: Unrec.
DUer #4: Unrec.
Haitian man: Water! Medicine! Please!
DUer #6: MEDICINE IS JUST A SCAM FROM BIG PHARMA.
DUer #5: No it isn't. This man needs pain killers!
DUer #6: Yes it is a scam.
DUer #5: No it isn't.
DUer #7: The only reason this happened is because Haitians don't have guns.

Haitian man: THERE'S A BUILDING... COLLAPSED ON MY LEG.
DUer #10: Unfortunately the security situation precludes us from helping you.
DUer #7: I *TOLD* YOU THEY NEEDED GUNS!!!
DUer #1: K&R!

DUer #11: Yes it is.
DUer #5: No it isn't.
DUer #11: Yes it is.
DUer #12: You people have NO IDEA what you're talking about. I once visited a place with poor people and it gave me a sad.
DUer #11: Well aren't you special!
Haitian man: Please! I'm dying!
DUers #1-#12: SHUT UP!
DUer #13: OMG USSC DESTROYS TEH DEMOCRACIES TURN ON CSPAN FUCKING SHIT!
Haitian man: Hello?
Haitian man: Hello? Is... anybody there?
Red Cross volunteer: Hey there, looks like you could use some help.
Haitian man: Yes, please! Water! Medicine! Are the crazy people gone?
Red Cross volunteer: Yeah, they're gone. It's the same way in every disaster. They appear out of nowhere and then just vanish off the face of the earth. Only reason we ever know they were here is because we find these goddamn keyboards all over the place.
Haitian man: Please, can I eat one of the keyboards? I'm so very, very hungry.
Red Cross volunteer: Well, I could give you an MRE... You know what, go with the keyboard.
Haitian man: Thank you!

Have you no shame, sir?!



You should have made it about the DUers not saving a kitten in Haiti, however, if you really wanted to stoke the fires of outrage.

All of them.

:rofl: :applause:

But otherwise... yeah. :rofl:

They were over at the airport arguing logistics with a bunch of other DUers who are upset that we aren't using more hemp in our relief efforts.

And that was not a pro-military remark. Necessarily.

That's spot on - oh yeah :sarcasm:

actually it's pretty lame

I didn't think I would need to write Cliff's Notes for this post, but maybe I do: It's a joke about people who insist upon using this event as some kind of narrative lesson regarding their own pet doctrine, no matter how unrelated it might be.

it is coming home to roost and they don't even manage to ID it....

<------ Austerity Plan for those wondering... oh wait, the more polite name... spending freeze, targeted spending freeze.

I was like unfrigging unbelievable.

...Give me a few minutes and I'll use this THREAD as some kind of narrative lesson for my own unrelated pet doctrine. ;)

Adopt a child who'd been in an orphanage for 14 years, even though there was word his second cousin twice-removed might come claim him at some point in the future.

So yes, I AM special.
