Blog Export: Please God No Blog Export: Please God No, http://www.pleasegodno.com/ Thursday, September 30. 2021 Posted by at 19:41 My heart and my prayers go out to the 12 year old dog, left alone for days at home awaiting a beating and further abuse because it couldn't wait to go to the bathroom. Animal cruelty is a felony is some jurisdictions. It's not a matter of political correctness, it's just simple human decency to the creatures of this world. I beg you, please take your dog to the local animal shelter where it will receive much more decent care than you're capable of giving it. I hope the neighbors will hear you beating the dog and call the police to arrest you.........no dog deserves to live like this, and you don't deserve to own a dog.

Anonymous on Apr 15 2007, 22:11 I agree. There are only a few people that make me more sick than people like you, and its people like Falwell Anonymous on May 17 2007, 01:05 He's not going to sell much, he aint got no tits. Anonymous on May 31 2007, 05:17 Have you listened to the directors tract on the thing?, it's great. The same for Big trouble in little china. Anonymous on Jun 6 2007, 14:11 Oh my God!! I feel so releived! I thought there must be something wrong with me! I've eaten Kahi for years, but lately this has been happening to me! The gas is so incredible, I thought I must have IBS! Been taking beano, with no results, by the way. NO MORE KASHI for me!! Anonymous on Jun 8 2007, 17:39 OH NO CARI!!!! NOW I AM WORRIED THAT I HAVE IBS AND NOT JUST BAD GAS!!!! Anonymous on Jun 10 2007, 01:26 What are you talking about sicko Anonymous on Jun 24 2007, 19:03 Hey man good work asshole Anonymous on Jun 24 2007, 19:04 That cereal was delicious but the intestinal riot was not worth it. Stomach churning is putting it lightly. I now have stronger sphincter muscles, though, from trying not to fart so much, as the onslaught of gas was sudden then constant. Anonymous on Jun 25 2007, 12:31 Page 1 / 244 Blog Export: Please God No, http://www.pleasegodno.com/ Yeah - this stuff is POTENT. I cut ass for a solid 10 hours after eating this cereal. I'm talking mass quantities of air. Almost unbelievable. I still wonder where the sheer volume of air comes from. Anonymous on Jul 24 2007, 16:03 "Falwell had it right. He prayed about killing fags like you." If he was praying why did he need the kleenex and lotion? Anonymous on Aug 7 2007, 06:24 WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT Anonymous on Sep 24 2007, 02:03 I can't believe that you would put these pictures of the beautiful Princess Diana. You may feel that we are still mourning her, but guess what, you are just probably insanely jealous of all the fabulous and generous things she has done in her life, which is probably something you would never do or even think of doing!!! Anonymous on Oct 2 2007, 00:53 I was in tears reading this. Anonymous on Nov 19 2007, 15:39 me too! (fart) Anonymous on Nov 21 2007, 01:46 Thanks to this blog, I am now a happier girl. Due to olfactory deficiencies I have had problems with vaginal odor for years. I always felt like I was on the outside looking in, people made fun of me all the time. I was very unhappy and misunderstood. I am so glad that the Vagisil company has come to understand girls like me and has fulfilled a need that many of us are too embarrassed to admit. I can now monitor my vaginal odor daily in the comfort and privacy of my own apartment. I even got a new hairdo and makeover! People don't make fun of me anymore! I highly recommend this wonderful product. Anonymous on Nov 23 2007, 01:17 I made the mistake of eating Kashi GoFart crunch an hour or two before a hearty mexican meal with lots of peppers. Needless to say, my ass was like Mount St. Helens. Anonymous on Nov 24 2007, 16:53 How dare you say that about somebody that made people smile you should be ashamed of your self imagin if you died would you like that?no you wouldn't so shutup and don't say bad things about princess diana. Your mother must be gross out that she's your mother.Never again say bad things about people or i'll really get mad. Got it.Good Anonymous on Dec 3 2007, 22:11 hahaha @ "Or I'll get really mad". Are you serious? Anonymous on Jan 3 2008, 21:38 I don't claim to have the smartest readers... Anonymous on Jan 5 2008, 14:55 hahahahhah nasty Anonymous on Jan 5 2008, 18:06 The pictures are gruesome. But I do agree that Princess Diana was just a product of hype and has really done nothing extraordinary (a few photo ops with impoverished Afrcans does not count). Diana made the most of the publicity afforded her as a member of the Royal family, spent her husband's money and generally turned public opinion against the Queen and Charles. I am sorry she went in this way but I do not see why everyone went into hysterics over her. Anonymous on Jan 16 2008, 01:19 My friend Preston said that Kashi's name should be changed to Happy Golden Farty Crunches. He also says that after eating a bowl for two a day, you could apply for a conceal and carry license,as your ass is a deadly weapon. I laughed laughed so hard I sobbed when reading this site, as it is so true, and made me feel so much better to know I'm not the only one. Anonymous on Jan 20 2008, 22:52 Not funny. Anonymous on Jan 22 2008, 22:13 Page 2 / 244 Blog Export: Please God No, http://www.pleasegodno.com/ Haha yeah, it is. I do agree that its a bit rash in retrospect since hes just passed and all.... Anonymous on Jan 22 2008, 22:35 Yeah, very rash. I don't think we saw jokes like this about Marilyn Monroe until at least a couple of decades after her death. Anonymous on Jan 22 2008, 23:58 Oh how terribly amusing-not. This is so not funny and I don't mean out of respect to the dead either. It is not funny because it is not funny. It is annoying because someone thinks it is funny. There are so many not funny people who say not funny things who think that they are funny. I find it depressing that someone has gone to so much trouble to be not funny. After I got over my confusion, I felt bored and depressed which isn't funny at all. In fact it is very not funny. Anonymous on Jan 22 2008, 23:59 LMAO!!! This is Anna Nicole all over again. Anonymous on Jan 23 2008, 00:02 i am about 100% positive someone was joking about it after her death. you just dont see it because the brilliance of the internet lies in the anonymity of it all and if you give someone the sense of being anonymous, then you will see that person say things they wouldnt if people had a face and a voice to associate it with. heath ledger's death is all part of a viral campaign for the new batman movie. promotions for the dark knight have included coordinates to places in america to meet up for special gatherings for the film and defaced websites and the usual ARP related games. this is no different. when the film is released, the joker's biggest prank of all will be revealed and he will indeed laugh at the fools who believed this. Anonymous on Jan 23 2008, 00:15 Ricardo, I am sorry that you don't think I am funny. If it makes you feel any better, I didn't go through "so much trouble". If you look at the rest of the website you can probably tell that I spend less time on my graphics than Perez Hilton and the articles seem to be written by a handicapped mail clerk. I'm a simple guy who loves to hear from people like you who take themselves and this whole crazy culture we live in so seriously.

  • An Abstract of the Thesis Of
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF William Robert Holderness for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Speech Communication, Political Science and Speech Communication presented on June 8, 2010. Title: Why We Worship the Economy: A Burkean Analysis of South Park‘s ―Margaritaville‖ Abstract approved: _________________________________________________ Robert S. Iltis The television show South Park, created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, is viewed by millions of people each week, regularly addresses a number of controversial issues and plays a major role in contemporary popular culture. Current academic research acknowledges Parker and Stone‘s willingness to attack the dominant views surrounding a number of political and social issues. This research also identifies a number of rhetorical devices used in making these attacks. This thesis attempts to reconcile these rhetorical devices with the use of incongruity. Through an interdisciplinary approach to theories on decision making and through applying Burke‘s concepts of perspective by incongruity, master tropes and frames of acceptance and rejection, this thesis analyzes the South Park episode ―Margaritaville.‖ The question that is the focus of this thesis is: How does ―Margaritaville‖ use planned incongruity to reframe dominant discussions concerning the United States financial crisis? The findings of this study indicate that through the use of Burke‘s master tropes and frames of acceptance and rejection ―Margaritaville‖ both identifies and questions the American public‘s tendency to view the economy as they would a deity. This thesis determines that the episode ―Margaritaville‖ has a positive effect on its ideal audience. Furthermore, this study demonstrates both the importance of developing an interdisciplinary theory of human decision-making and notes the utility of using a similar Burkean analysis to examine primetime, adult-oriented cartoons.

She helped me shape the topic and gave me very insightful comments that, hopefully, made this thesis better in quality. Thank you!
