Take a Hike Ike

Ah, hurricane Ike. I wanted to check up on my beloved city of New Orleans, to ensure it was out of harm’s way this last Friday. So I typed in Hurricane Ike NOLA and it brought me to a blog forum, where I tripped unknowingly upon a forum of posts that made me wish I had come home and gone straight to bed instead. That's another hour of my life I will never get back. But I did get a little chuckle at the end.

This is me- about to vomit. Entitled: Ummm, No thin mint please.
Despite being disgusted at the flame posts and reiterations upon reiterations of the same sentiment in this forum, the below ding-dong triggered my gag-reflex the most. She even had the dipshititude to repost this revised poem in the second post you’ll find below. We can only find ourselves blessed she did not attempt a ”third times charm.” Seriously.

It sucked ass the first time. My guess is this tenacious f*cktard has an alphabet across the top of her page so she can go through every letter to find something that rhymes, which does NOT make good poetry I assure you. Now don’t get me wrong, I respect loveandlight’s right to post her thoughts-- this is America and free speech and all that jazz-- but please don’t shove the whole box of powdered sugar down our throats again. Find something else you are talented in and partake in that endeavor.

Hundred bucks says she is also a scrapbooker. Holy DOG. What is the world coming to?

Hi folks, I have been through several hurricanes and tropical storms. I wrote a silly poem about Ike even though the situation could become very serious. I hope you all in New Orleans well as you have suffered so much the past few years. I think the storm will miss you in New Orleans. The poem (revised):
"Take a hike Ike"
Yike, It's Ike
(Which no one likes)
Coming up the pike.
So Mike...
Take your wife and tyke.
Get out on your Harley bike
Before Ike breaks the dike
Take a hike Ike!

We can only hope Mike doesn't evac to NWArk for BBBBQ (Bikes, Blues, and BBQ.) Unless he's trying desperately to escape the poetry of his creator. Please, please, please, please, please loveandlight… spare us any more of your torturous soul-infused offerings of comedic diversion and go smoke some pixie dust in your bathroom. I think you’ve lived through so many tropical storms that your head is full of air. Pray you blow the candy dander elsewhere. My ulcer doesn't need any help revolting thank you.

...But wait here’s more to love. Except this time, high five to GrannyCharli and dafountain for their little retorts to these two holy-rolling ding dongers! loveandlight made my stomach churn voraciously, but twigs224 and tampaman made my whole essence hurl with vomitous loathing. I hear this type of inane crap all the time where I live.

I've read a lot of stupid and ignorant comments on this board but the above has to be close to the top of the list!!
I would take the time to reiterate my reasons but I feel certain my *point* would be totally lost on someone with your level of intelligence.

What good does come out of New Orleans? It does make me wonder about the Acts of God and the future of New Orleans.

I'm suprised we got so far down into the comments until the "punishment from god" nuts came out. If sin were the criteria for god's wrath I doubt the entire planet would still be here. The only punishment I feel is from religious zealots, the true menace in the world. Oh and yeeeaaa, the track has moved south. Let's hope it stays that way.


Finally. I got something worthwhile and a damn good chuckle from dafountain (despite the misspelling of ‘surpised’.) I think the “punishment from god nuts” need a little of their own elixir. Like maybe some cyanide koolaid in a beer keg field. With some chili cheese fritos. Come on up to Bible Belt, Midwest, and I’ll take ya’ll on a little tour. Yee-haw!

Glad to know these type of nuts and cheeseballs exist everywhere. I was starting to get a complex. I thought they primarily lived in my region. Guess it's time to ring the stupid bell.


*On a serious note, good energy and wishes go out to everyone and everything that got the brunt of Hanna, Gustav, and Ike in both the U.S. and beyond. Poor Cuba. And although I deplore the city of Houston and would never live there willingly in conscious and lucid mind, I don't wish it's citizens ill either. Let's hope hurricane season has passed, and we don't have any more of this shit to go through for awhile and can recover...

Come now... the esteemed poet was only following in the example of The Royal Mayor Nagin when he publically stated that hurricane evacuees coming to NOLA should just, "Ask the hotels for the Nagin discount."

Now, I'm unsure whether this is the discount that he gets for his midday visits or the one that he gets for overstating occupancy as a measure of Mardi Gras attendance. Personally, I recommend that my favorite corrupt Mayor go back to tonnage of trash to measure Mardi Gras success, but that is another story.

When asked about it, Nagin said that he was trying to make light of a serious situation and that the hotels should do their best to accommodate.

Oh, and never-you-mind that hotel collusion as a means to price-fixing is a crime, Mr. Nagin. Open mouth. Insert foot (unless that is already your fetish).
