Remembering the Little Things

There is something immeasurably satisfying, on a deeply spiritual level, to kill your ninth hero in a row for "GODLIKE". Then, within seconds, to blink next to a dying Medusa running for her fountain, and totally ruin her day with a Culling Blade as "HOLY SHIT" and "DOUBLE KILL" echo.

DotA, it's good for the soul.

Fat fucks fly for free

Well actually they don't... But this article made me rage.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Obese people have the right to two seats for the price of one on flights within Canada, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled on Thursday.

The high court declined to hear an appeal by Canadian airlines of a decision by the Canadian Transportation Agency that people who are "functionally disabled by obesity" deserve to have two seats for one fare.

The airlines had lost an appeal at the Federal Court of Appeal in May and had sought to launch a fresh appeal at the Supreme Court. The court's decision not to hear a new appeal means the one-person-one-fare policy stands.

The appeal had been launched by Air Canada, Air Canada Jazz and WestJet.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now in the land of maple syrup and hockey, being obese is legally considered a disability? Time for some common sense, people. Getting knocked down by a bus and losing your legs is a disability. Being born with the mental capacity of a sand fly is a disability. A consistent failure to resist that extra round of a buffet is not a fucking disability, it's being a weak-willed food hole.

I like the whole tolerance and diversity thing as much as the next pinko liberal, but the line of legislative protection ought to be drawn between nature and choice. Want to draft anti-discrimination laws for gender, race, sexual orientation, disability? Knock yourselves out. But it's my Satan given right to call pregnant women "breeders", laugh at adults with imaginary friends, and most importantly, throw cake at human walruses, without getting charged with a hate crime.

You know, it seems that every time someone complains about fat people, there will be some new age hippie asshole bitching about how this "skinny culture" is causing teenage girls to develop eating disorders and lose self-esteem and all that jazz. To which I say, absolute fucking bullshit! Take a look at any weight chart. There is a thick red line between "obese" and "underweight", and that line is called "moderation". It's not like some beached whale is suddenly going to turn into a walking skeleton by losing a few calories.

So yeah, I'm going to write about fat people, and bitching fat hippies can go get stuffed (more than what they are already stuffing, at any rate). The thing that probably pisses me off the most, other than the whole "BAAAAAAAAAAW we r disableds, gif free stuffz pl0x" routine, is the "fat is beautiful" movement. What irks me is the way this movement is intentionally out of touch with what is reasonably perceived (some call it "reality") just to give its followers license to continue wallowing in their lard tubs.

A good dose of reality goes a long way in curing delusion, so here are five facts which, in my awesome opinion, most people would agree with:

1. This

is not beautiful, in any shape, form, or context, or by any measure, or for any purpose, or intent, whatsoever.

2. Creatures in photo above do not belong anywhere near the beach, much less in bikinis. It's a known fact that exposure to the sun might cause dizziness, and their presence would dramatically increase the risk of nausea for other beach-goers.

3. Obesity poses many health risks, which in turn make them a heavier (lol pun) strain on the healthcare system and a burden on taxpayers (many of whom are healthily-sized). Stop grabbing a bigger piece of the tax pie, aren't the meat pies enough?

4. Fat culture + breeder culture = Idiot parents who think that their kids' obesity is someone else's fault and call for banning of food.

5. It is not superficial to say that fat is not beautiful. Sure, beauty is somewhat subjective, but there is still an objective standard that obese people largely fall short of. If I show you a picture of a guy with half his face blown off by a shotgun, would you say it's superficial to think he is not beautiful? Didn't think so.

Fatties of the world, get off your "fat is beautiful" pipe dreams and either gracefully accept that you're fat and be happy, or hit the treadmill. Whichever your choice, burn the damn bikinis, or I'll throw an Ultra Ball at you.

So, so, awwwwwwesome!

'No God' slogans for city's buses

Bendy-buses with the slogan "There's probably no God" could soon be running on the streets of London.

The atheist posters are the idea of the British Humanist Association (BHA) and have been supported by prominent atheist Professor Richard Dawkins. The BHA planned only to raise £5,500, which was to be matched by Professor Dawkins, but it has now raised more than £36,000 of its own accord. It aims to have two sets of 30 buses carrying the signs for four weeks.

The complete slogan reads: "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life."

As the campaign has raised more than anticipated, it will also have posters on the inside of buses as well. The BHA is also considering extending the campaign to cities including Birmingham, Manchester and Edinburgh.

Professor Dawkins said: "Religion is accustomed to getting a free ride - automatic tax breaks, unearned respect and the right not to be offended, the right to brainwash children. Even on the buses, nobody thinks twice when they see a religious slogan plastered across the side. This campaign to put alternative slogans on London buses will make people think - and thinking is anathema to religion." [Emphasis for truth]

Hanne Stinson, chief executive of the BHA, said: "We see so many posters advertising salvation through Jesus or threatening us with eternal damnation, that I feel sure that a bus advert like this will be welcomed as a breath of fresh air. If it raises a smile as well as making people think, so much the better."

But Stephen Green of pressure group Christian Voice said: "Bendy-buses, like atheism, are a danger to the public at large. I should be surprised if a quasi-religious advertising campaign like this did not attract graffiti. People don't like being preached at. Sometimes it does them good, but they still don't like it." [Emphasis for hypocrisy]

However the Methodist Church said it thanked Professor Dawkins for encouraging a "continued interest in God".

Spirituality and discipleship officer Rev Jenny Ellis said: "This campaign will be a good thing if it gets people to engage with the deepest questions of life."

She added: "Christianity is for people who aren't afraid to think about life and meaning." [Emphasis for setting a good example]

The buses with the slogans will run in Westminster from January.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All I can say is that, well, it's about damn time! Some will argue that it's hypocrisy for freethinkers to use the same tactics as the religious. I see it more as a case of learning from best practices, even those of your opponents. After all, they have had centuries, if not millennia, to perfect the craft of mass attraction and control. And it's an unfortunate social fact that popularity, not intellect, is power.

The comment from Stephen Green was hilarious. Does that man not sit back and think (oops, BAD WORD BAD WORD) before he speaks? Firstly, this religious guy accuses the atheists of "preaching". Secondly, banners which threaten one with eternal hell for not living according to the dictates of religious leaders are fine and dandy, but a banner which tells you to "stop worrying and enjoy your life" should be a target of vandalism?

At least not all Christians are like that. Kudos to the Methodist Church for encouraging tolerance, intellectual engagement and a willingness to debate. Guess we won't be seeing any "God says it, I believe it, that settles it!" bullshit from these folks.

The Irony... It's Delicious

Keeping an eye on the US presidential election campaigns can yield awesome bits of lulz sometimes.

You know how fundamentalist nutjobs tend to associate bad weather with God's wrath on the immoral? In a Singapore church, I have heard a pastor linking hurricane Katrina with New Orlean's gay pride parade and the California fires with California's supreme court's decision to allow gay marriage.

In line with this proud tradition, an employee of Focus on the Family decided to pray for rain on Barack Obama's speech at the Democratic National Convention. The Democrats, as we all know, are baby killing, fag enabling sinners. As opposed to the super righteous darling party of the super righteous religious crazies: the Republicans. If God is going to smite anyone, what better way to make his message clear than to rain hailstones on Obama's speech, right?

Well, it looks like evil Obama's speech took place in perfect weather. Meanwhile, the Republican National Convention looks set to get hit by some rain... oh wait, make that a fucking hurricane. Oops, guess God got tired of certain groups using his name to promote their own moral views.

In related news, Sarah Palin, the hot Vice President pick of the Republicans, is showing herself to be a wonderful conservative. She's staunchly pro-life, anti-gay, creationist, and pushes an abstinence-only programme. Like all good moral conservatives, she also has a healthy dose of hypocrisy. As it turns out, her unmarried daughter is pregnant. Yep, effectiveness of abstinence-only sex education on brilliant display right there.

Now all we need is for one of their children to come out of the closet, or to declare that he's atheist.

Here comes the Slippery Slope

The scariest thing I've read in a while:

Singapore's religious rightwing trains its sights on abortion

In case you can't be arsed to read the article, it's a commentary on a forum letter written by a law lecturer calling for abortion to be outlawed in Singapore. So here we have it, kids, the pro-lifers have landed. And they have one hell of an agenda to push, right down your throats.

What happens if they succeed in outlawing abortion? Just imagine this: You are happily having sex with your partner, you use protection and all. Then one day, a little accident happens (and accidents do happen no matter how careful you are). While it will cost 500 bucks and a crying girlfriend to clear up the mess now, in the future it could well mean nine months of expenditure and pain. Or maybe a dead girl, if she chooses to get rid of it illegally.

Personally, I am not particularly worried. Should the worst come to pass, I can easily leave and move to a country where these nutjobs are laughed at and dismissed with the middle finger. I don't see a point in staying in any country with a population so stupid that such people can take control. I'm just doing my civic duty in this entry by giving fair warning against organised insanity.

I bet the reaction of many people during the whole 377a debate was, "Well who cares, I'm straight. Doesn't affect me." This forum letter illustrates very clearly why we should care. Moral fascism comes in a package. It's not just about criminalising gay sex. If they had their way, I believe that we could be seeing abortion, contraceptives, pre-marital sex, clubbing and even alcohol (don't laugh, it happened before) being illegal in our lifetime.

Think Singapore is boring and sterile now? Wait till they get their paws on the censors' scissors. Enjoy "wholesome family programming" on television 24/7. Games and movies will no longer need a rating system, because you can bet your ass that any remotely sexual or violent parts will be snipped right out. Never forget that we are talking about a group of people who want nothing more than for Singaporean society to conform absolutely to their personal morality. Now you see how it affects YOU.
