But I thought Bush caused Katrina because of the pact he made in '04 with Great Cthulu.... That was totally his fault. Or maybe it was the Kraken, I dunno my political memory gets hazy every four years or so...

No the pact was made with Bob, Satan's accountant.

Oh GAWD Bob is such an asshat. I bought a Cavalier off the guy a few years ago, he SWORE it was taken care of and in great shape. A month later, the engine was blown, the tranny shot, and all the "body work" he had done to hide all the dents and rust wholes fell out.

I thought it was Dick Cheney that made the pact and it was with with Nyarlathotep?

Exactly.

I agree, Bolt Pistols really aren't that big of a deal. Now Plasma pistols, that's a threat in the making.

Hey Bob sold me a car that he allegedly bought off of Yog-Sothoth, but Fightin'Jesus fixed it up one weekend for some wine in return, and it still runs! All is not lost my friends...

Sorry to hear that your transvestite was shot.......oh, wait, you meant transmission.......

This is another grand-standing opportunity for liberals. It's a tragedy for 11 families (notice, the media has forgot that 11 men were killed, they're just worried that some fish might die) and the environment in general. Instead of figuring out how to get money out of BP, why don't the figure out ways to reduce the chance of a repeat. Were there improper procedures used to construct the well (which has been suggested)? Should BP have had more materials available for clean-up? Nope, don't fix the problem, just try to drive them out of business because you don't like them.

Tar balls off Florida, analyzed, not from BP Horizon well. Thats interesting.

This need not be an attack on 'the liberals'. Those men are dead and that's that. It is the nature of death, no coming back, nothing can be done... so move along. It was made news of (or how would we know that?) the reason they are focussing on the fish is because of concerns about what actually we CAN do something about.

Tough luck for the family members of the killed. Oil rig workers have a hard job and are gone from their loved ones far too long, but they do get payed well.

Hopefully they can get the leak capped off and stop the flow of oil. I don't think BP is to blame for a large bubble of gas getting into the purge pipe. They could have been more vigilant about inspections, but blaming them for the explosion is wrong.

I guess it's kind of like trying to find someone to blame for an earthquake. You can point all the fingers you want about so-and-so not being prepared enough, but the fact is gak happens whether we like it or not.

If you've ever been to Walmart I'm sure you'd find lots of shoppers that would cause earthquakes if they were ever to fall out of those damned electric "I'm too fething lazy" to walk carts.

LOL.

Well people have been crushed to death in the past by a stream of Walmart sale shopper.

Yeah. That's pathetic.

But I'm talking about the individuals who, when they fall down stairs, get the richter scale bouncing. LOL.

Wallmarts the only store with wide enough doors for them.

"When they were saying they had to leave, that an employee got killed, people were yelling, 'I've been on line since Friday morning!'" Cribbs said. "They kept shopping."

No. *edited to avoid ban*. That's just sick.

gentlemen... feast your eyes and enjoy the gag instinct. This is one of the funniest random websites I've ever come accross. It has nothing to do with the oil spill but I figured since we kind of turned into a walmart ogre thread I may as well share.

The stories...

feth me that website is awesome - so addictive! I had to tear myself away when I realised there were 300-odd pages of freaks to look at...
