Topic: Brainless things people say on Facebook

proof?

My 30 year old cousin (paraphrasing, and reposting from some other thread where I posted this)  You should probably add misspellings and loltext to this on your own:

"Found out I'm gonna have a grandson today!  She's not showing too much, so she'll fit into her wedding dress this weekend!"

THe vast majority of the people on my facebook are pretty normal to my standards.  I got rid of all the anti science atheist a few years back.  Now, my family tends to be the only ones posting crazy, and that's pretty rare.

my brother posted this:

Lost a lot of money betting on the game last night. I know I shouldn’t gamble, but it’s the only way I can enjoy Words with Friends.

Okay, not brainless. Actually my brother's posts are one of my daily highlights.

That's pretty funny really.

I only go to fb to play Scrabble. Can't stand the entire thing anymore.

Love Scrabble but got fed up of people playing exotic, unheard-of words on every turn (especially suspicious when they didn't seem to know how to maximise there score) - far better when the person's there beside you and a 'challenge' system.

Not that I was brilliant at it mind you, but I have this silly thing in my head about playing honestly.

Oh I only have one consistent player in the US and two in GB at the moment.  Karyn and Andrew used to play with me but don't anymore. :-(  I used to play with a lot of random people when I lived in Korea but the North American isn't really set up to do that very well.

My brother's latest post is another good one.

This weekend I'll do something I wish I'd done 13 years ago: Not see The Phantom Menace in the theater.

The Onion's headlines/News stories are hilarious to begin with, but when you pair them with idiotic facebookers; I cannot help but get a HUGE belly-laugh at many of the comments regarding a FAKE news story. I think even a congressman recently fell for one of these articles and he posted it on Facebook...

(Just look at all the "Abortion Mega-Plex" comments...it's insane!)

I spoke with Bora and got a reservation to attend his lecture on traveling to Turkmenistan (AM47 Point of Elemental AIR) and Iran/Central Asia to be held at the Fisherman's Wharf Marroitt in San Francisco on 26 Feb 2012. AM47 was scheduled to be in Turkmenistan, just north of Iran on 29 Feb 2012, but is now aiming for 28 Feb 2013. And at just 3 days off the mark!, I suppose this will have to suffice in place of traveling there this year
Synchronicity is magic. Yet again, I must find a way to incorporate Alchemy and metaphysics into a threateningly mundane public forum...Let it be. I'll need to revamp the presentation of the AM47 website and update all the pertinent info in regard to the Point of Elemental AIR... the opportunity is exciting! I've been looking for a contact in Central Asia for quite some time, and to have found one in my backyard is magic. And he's a folklorist too!!

This is from somebody who constantly posts about something called "sidereal astrology," and has a blog devoted to the subject. He's always talking about this grand yachting adventure he has planned, in which he will sail around the world with a bunch of Burning Man type artists and mystics to the Earth's various energy vortexes, where they will perform "magickal" rituals. Also, a documentary will be filmed along the way.

The only problem is that no millionaire has stepped forward to loan him a boat and finance the "expedition."

I have no idea what "AM47" means, but he's constantly talking about it. The AM part apparently stands for "AlterMan," but I don't know what the 47 is for.

He also uses the phrase, "AM47 point of elemental air" quite often.

Got into an argument with a Kent Hovind disciple, a few gems:

After I said that Kent spreads a wealth of misinformation:
 

I have not seen a single piece of misinformation comeing from him (Kent Hovind) , but plenty from that idiotic Junk Science Cr@p known as Evolution . You are just another Small-Minded Yankee Child . I will lay odds that I have read and understood nearly 10 times the books you have , both Religious and Evolution. You sound so Brain-Washed! Run and hide like all Evolutionist do when backed into a corner .

After trying to explain the big bang theory and evolution:

YES student NOTHING exploded nd became something! hahahaha ... then tell me whyyyyy everytime we see an explosion it DESTROYS something? nd not create something?? make fun of us but you think we came from soup o.O okkkaayyy. Why dont monkeys give birth to baby humans? I HAV NEVER EVEN SEEN THAT HAPPEN ONCE

After I asked her to read a few basic introductory articles on evolution/the big bang theory (As you will see, she didn't really read them):

BECAUSE I AM SMART AND OPEN MINDED, i read it...... but doesn't make sense why killing or stealing is against the law when the gov't obviously believes in evolution.. doesn't natural selection say only the FITTEST survive? might as well killl the obese nd old people.  so why is the billions always changing? i was taught 16 billions now it's 14? tomorrow 30? why don't scientist know? Maybe because they weren't there? nd i was taught natural selection that way. apparently people are being told to teach students things like this to make sure we don't make God be in it the plan. nd it kept saying UNIVERSE. don't you know UNI in latin means single? nd VERSE is SPOKEN setence? because God SPOKE "Let there be" nd there was

After i back her into a corner and answer all of her questions:

i know the Bible is God's word because it's the ONLY book that tells the future before it happens. nd no. God gives us a choice. satan is the one decieving you. read the book of Job. don't you know satan still goes to Heaven? he talks to God about YOU. saying if God allows him to do something to you it'll make you deny God. nd God allows it. Nd you proved satan right. God is a loving God. so give credit where it's due. Satan is putting doubt in your mind. It's his playground. So your serving satan who's been lying to you.

It begs the question, so i ask it: what does the bible predict?.....It turned into a fuknut free for all

who said anything about predicting? i'm saying it TELLS us the future. not predict the future. It teld us that the earth was round, it told us that there are nine planets, it told us about how vaccinations are evil, it told us about gravity, it told us about 9/11 before it happened, it predicted world war II and wolrd war I!

I exited the conversation, seeing that she needs help beyond my capabilities.

Oh wow. I think if I'd been in that fight, I would have quoted for her the Bible verses which specifically describe the Earth's shape as non-spherical:

Jeremiah 16:19:
O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.

Revelation 7:1:
And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.

My sidereal astrology friend has more gems. He posted the following link:

Along with this comment:

Finally, astrology is becoming "acceptable to science". The paradigm is shifting and the sparks are flying!
