I'd only contemplate a bumper/window decal like that if I drove a banger. Asking for trouble from a Strident Militant God Botherer. Heck, when I first started doing a blade one all over on my head and found 3 little bald spot chicken pox scars close together in a little triangle, I thought it might be a laugh to write the number 6 in each of them a la Damien. Then I realised I didn't want to risk giving a Paranoid Schizophrenic ideas that I was the devils voice that was in his head and end up with a 6 inch Kitchen knife in my back.

I had a Darwin fish on the top box of my bike. Came out of work to find in on the ground behind my bike in pieces. Only had it about two days.

Enda Kenny went to greet people who came to Knock because somebody said they once saw ghosts there http://www.rte.ie/news/2015/0809/720099-knock-pilgrimage-flight/ this is the guy ultimately in charge of our education system

Do you think he was there to meet them because somebody said they once saw ghosts there, or was he there to meet them because somebody has just started flying in planeloads of Americans to spend cash in the region and he'd like to be seen to be part of doing something that helps the economy?

How to freak out the kids of your religious friends. I'm sure any resemblance to a hieratic butt-plug is entirely coincidental.

Have you watched that? It is either a spoof, or one of the most irrational, perverted bits of double-think I have seen. Some of the details are amazing - 'rational' being used as a kind of scientific negative, warnings against the dangers of indoctrination, a definition of atheism that has no basis in linguistics, there is no end to it, kinda frightening really. Or, I suppose, most likely, a bit of cynical hijacking of Creationism for money-making purposes.

It's pretty clear towards the end that it's a spoof, but Poe's law strikes again: until they pretty much out themselves, it's sadly all too believable.

I knew there was a parody in there somewhere, but it got me as well , I thought the game was real until near the end when he started talking about the "goddidit cards" and that you might need to bu extra packs :pac:

The following has got nothing - I repeat, nothing - to do with religion etc (unless one considers Harry Potter to have religious content), but I was so struck by this that I had to share.

Even on the silver screen, English translations for Chinese releases can be a bit dodgy. But we're not sure if we've ever seen subtitles fail so epically as the ones from a recent Chinese-dubbed edition of Harry Potter.

It's not certain if these hilarious screencaps were taken from an official release or a bootleg DVD (we sure hope so), but either way it's pure magic. It's been a while since we've seen Harry Potter, but let's try to set up the story for those unfamiliar:

The film begins with a young wizard, the eponymous Hally Porter, who must escape from the clutches of his Melon uncle along with two pigeons.
Hally finds his way to the Hogawalz School of Wizardly, where he befriends a red-haired wizard name Rond after inspecting his magic stick. When the bratty Draco Malfoy tries to bully Hally, Ron sticks up for his friend and tells the bully to eat crickets. Malfoy responds by calling everyone dirty Melons.
Later in the film, Harry must confront the evil wizard Fodi and get the gold voice, all while trying not to get fired.

They are all Melons.
