Pedro Picasso on fire
« on: May 17, 2009, 08:05:27 AM »
Being semi-ambulatory since Saturday morning, I haven't been able to sit at the computer, and so had to settle in bed yesterday to read The Gallic Wars by Julius Caesar.  It's interesting.

I suppose by reading and commenting upon Julius Caesar, I was stalking Julius Caesar.

Anyway.

Fire departments intentionally start fires to practice putting them out.

That doesn't make it legal for an arsonist to torch a house.

BAM. Another hole shot in Torture Party's rationalization for their criminal behavior.

Only one primitive showed up at the bonfire.

1. By coincidence from yesterday here in the UK

A fleet of 11 fire engines worth £1.3m and belonging to the national Fire Service College in Gloucestershire has been destroyed in a blaze.

The engines, costing £116,000 each, were stored in a workshop at the college in Moreton-in-Marsh, along with diesel and hydraulic oil.

Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service sent 58 firefighters to the fire. Crews from two other counties assisted.

An investigation is under way to establish the cause.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/gloucestershire/8053... 

Okay, so my job here is to promote the DUmpster, to "sell" the DUmpster, and it's best done by content and thread-title, or "headline".

Of the three possible headlines for this primitive bonfire, which one's the best eye-grabber?

But sir, you neglected to vote on the headline.

This is a serious attempt to see what sorts of headlines grab the eye better than others.

The question becomes:  If Pedo Picasso were on fire, how would you react?  Would you:

1) Let him burn?

2) Put him out?

If the answer is 2) above, would you do this by:

1) Pissing on him?

2) Smothering the whole mess with an asbestos blanket?

3) Try to add gasoline (thus trying to put the fire out with too much fuel)?

What about an option to to try and smother the fire by throwing more gas soaked DUmmies on him? :fuelfire:

I voted for number one, "primitives discuss arson" the second one could be any of the fairy's that congregate at the DUmp and the third one was real close for number one.

He's kicked his own post, but no one else has bothered showing up for the weenie roast.

Actually, it's pretty funny.

It's obvious Pedro Picasso wants to discuss bashing the Republican party.

And then the dipsomanic primitive chimes in with a story about real arson, having missed Pedro Picasso's point entirely.

I'll bet the law-breaking Pedro Picasso is really gnashing his teeth in vexation.

2. I posted this so early this morning not many got a chance to see it.
   It's nothing earth-shattering, just another fatal flaw in the twisted logic of the Torture Party -- just because we trained our own people on how to withstand the illegal techniques doesn't make them legal outside of the training session.

Nobody seems to care now either idiot...you are a joke to your own demented ilk at this point.

It kind of makes me wonder.  When Pedro called attention to the posts about him on here, did the other DUmmies do some reading and see how ridiculous he really is?

He is on a website that I bet half the membership at least are truther nuts.
That is a thing beyond insane as they can look at what happened and then still deny the reality of the events.

Seeing how he is clearly coming here but doesn`t have the balls to sign up and attempt to have a civil discussion (hear that DUmbass coward) he is desperate for back slaps from his own peers and maybe yes those few that are not completely batshit crazy are now shunning him.

You know, sir, it's his own damned fault.

You might recall when Pedro Picasso showed up at our old home, and immediately, from the get-go, displayed significant problems with (a) expressing his ideas, (b) getting along with other people, and (c) public relations.

I gently approached Pedro Picasso, offering him the hand of friendship, and to be his public relations agent, so as to clean up his image.

Pedro Picasso bit the hand that friendshipped him.

It's his own damned fault.

No doubt, yet it is all of a piece with the basic character of the little creeps, in Pedro's case as in nearly all of their difficulties collectively and generally, the problems are mostly of their own making.

"Pedro Picasso on fire."

The more I think about it, Frank, the more I think the biggest problem with that title is that it raises false hope.
