Darwin Day pwnage
As is my custom, I started yesterday morning off by making the rounds at the blogs I read daily. I was pleasantly surprised to see our good friend “For the Kids” was celebrating Darwin Day with me by using the final image in my Darwin Day post.
I wasn’t in any way upset that she had used the image without my permission. To the contrary; I was flattered. My only beef was that I keep all the images I use for off-site purposes on a separate server so that my access logs are nice and tidy. Had she asked in advance, I would have gladly put the image on the other server for her benefit.
I could have sent her a PM at After the Bar Closes, or could have left a message at her blog. No, scratch that. She told me to never leave any comments on her blog, so I wasn’t about to waste my time making a friendly offer.
As Darwin Day progressed, FtK made the usual revisions to her blog after comments that she didn’t let pass through moderation called shenanigans on her bullshit. That gave me an idea… I sent out several PMs at AtBC, giving readers a chance to witness the event live.
All I had to do was change the name of the image I was using for my Darwin Day post, then replace the original image with something that would show up at Reasonable Kansans. Here is a screen capture of her page from earlier in the day:

Seeing that FtK is a living, breathing punchline to a bad joke, it only gets funnier… Once she realized what had happened, she updated the post to reflect the events as she saw them in her Bizarro universe:
Best. Darwin. Day. Ever.
I’m running out of naming options for these increasingly sick people. I started out a month ago with Church Burners. Then I had to add Ebola Boys. Church Burning Ebola Boys. Now what - Church Burning Baby Butchering Ebola Boys? That’s too long. Too unwieldy. Any suggestions would be appreciated. (Source:

LOL! That’s hysterical! All I can do is shake my head sadly at these poor, deluded people, just before I break down and laugh wildly at their idiocy.
Glad you had a good Darwin Day.

Yeah, she really exposed me, didn’t she? After all, I was so embarrassed by the photograph that I linked to Uncommon Descent and posted a link to it at The Panda’s Thumb.
First she steals, then she lies about it when she gets busted. And she has the gall to claim atheists aren’t ethical. It’s like shoot fish in a barrel.

I don’t know exactly how I came to find your blog, but goddamn I’m glad I did. Hilarious.

Magic stuff, chief. Don’t forget the Morphodyke incident, also!

I like the “just pray it’s not YOUR church they’re burning down.”
I love the smell of crazed paranoia in the morning…
Yeah. It WAS a good day, and the Valentine’s Day Meltdown Massacre was better.
