You haven't had cornbread till you've tried my cornbread

Sarzy says...

She seems like a really nice lady, but in what universe is cornbread you make from a mix "my" cornbread, and something you should boast about, no less?? Bizarre.

The Truth About Jerusalem

bcglorf says...

The video rant is over the top, but so is the reaction to moving the embassy to Jerusalem.

Saying something like "there goes the peace process" is just bizarre.

Can anyone honestly tell me that in our wildest dreams a future two state solution with Jerusalem split down the middle was EVER going to happen? That's like a Miss America speech level naivety.

It sounded like a provocation of the dowtrodden displaced natives and their allies every time to me.
It also sounded like the end of middle east peace process, which is the reason all previous presidents didn't follow through. I guess all that nonsense about Iran being months from a nuke was just that, nonsense, or they wouldn't consider this unless they want Israel to be nuked.

Edit: chances are, he won't follow through because his advisors will explain what a horrible idea it is, and what a giveaway of a major bargaining chip for absolutely nothing in return but trouble.
Nobody knew middle east peace was so complicated!

Don Lemon is not having it

Mammaltron says...

Regrettably I watched this whole thing waiting for a single counter-argument. It's just some idiot derping and fake-laughing at entirely reasonable criticism of your president's fucking bizarre ramblings?

Sarah Silverman Comments on Louis CK

vil says...

Am I missing something in the Laura Silverman story?

Why did she read a book that she did not enjoy? Why was she sharing a room with someone she did not want to share a room with? Why did she not leave the room?

This is a bizarre situation but IMHO not cause to complain years later.

"I broke up with this guy who is now famous but wasnt then. I still agreed to go on a cross country trip and stay in motel rooms together with him and he would warn me he wanted to masturbate in the morning and that i should leave if i minded but i stayed, turned around and read a book that i did not enjoy and now - me too!"

Meh.

When road rage goes terribly wrong

Jinx says...

Intent is important, yeah... but I dunno if I want to be on road with people that "react bizarrely", whether or not it is out of rage or nerves.

Lot of people in various places around the internet saying the driver definitely swerved into the bike on purpose, which i'm not gonna rule out. But i've known enough very timid/nervous drivers who have reacted bizarrely under pressure to not rule that out either.

How to break Google Translate

MilkmanDan says...

I've been having fun practicing my spoken Thai by using the microphone input button in Google translate, saying something in Thai, and attempting to
A) get it to "hear" what I said in Thai correctly, and
B) predict how it will translate what I said into English.

Since Thai is a tonal language, if I'm off a bit I sometimes end up with bizarre randomness like shown here... Fun way to practice though.

"One word says it all. Asian"

SFOGuy says...

The Sift isn't in to..doxxing...but despite the host's best attempts to disappear in the past 12 hrs...her info is all over the web.

The most bizarre part (or maybe not?)---she is an ESL teacher...attended two fundamentalist colleges, one for a masters.

Strange. Or not?

newtboy said:

So, they reported her to airbnb, right? They'll kick that stupid racist out instantly for that and probably pay for this woman's replacement lodgings, or at least her next trip. Airbnb is far from perfect, but they absolutely don't allow this behavior. Report it.

Too bad the interview didn't happen in front of the place they were denied, it would be nice to expose and identify her as the racist idiot she is before she does this again..

I grew up in the Westboro Baptist Church.

bcglorf says...

Maybe more simple would be to observe that from the evangelical interpretation, if you were to go out and kill every person that failed to live up to the law, the global population would be zero. From there it is hardly rational to believe that Jesus was teaching anyone was supposed to go around meting out judgement. I don't find it such a harsh leap of logic then to read the old testament laws stating if person X commits crime Y they must be killed as being admonitions against the crime. I think it's not that bizarre to read them as the act of stoning others as not a law itself, but a sentence, and a sentence that Jesus death rendered moot.

newtboy said:

Again that doesn't jibe with the text, or his exact words "For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven"
That also contradicts the theory that his death ended the laws....."until heaven and earth pass away" clearly is a different thing from 'until I, Jesus, pass away'.
This is clear that the letter of the laws, not just the spirit of love, are the focus here, and anyone ignoring a single jot will be judged harshly.
In the old testament, those punishments are for failing to live by the specific, set forth rules as written, not failing to live up to some underlying, contradictory, unwritten, hidden message of love behind them.

That's not what the bible says. It's what 3rd parties have told people it says. It also clearly warns about those people....warns against listening to them, and tells you what happens to them....they are called the least, which I interpret to mean considered unworthy of heaven so are sent elsewhere.
It clearly, unambiguously, undeniably tells believers to murder infidels themselves, personally, with rocks. Any other interpretation ignores clearly written specific and detailed instructions in favor of insane mental gymnastics to think " You must certainly put them to death. Your hand must be the first in putting them to death, and then the hands of all the people. 10 Stone them to death, because they tried to turn you away from the Lord your God" somehow, inexplicably means 'love and tolerate them with respect and kindness' and not 'go murder them ASAP'.

Evangelicals have never once lived up to your theory of what they believe, they can't even follow the basic golden rule. The respect they demand for their beliefs is never returned to others, in my experience.
Evangelicals in practice usually take the entirety of the Bible as a message telling them they should go out and force others to love their version of God and the righteous, not all people, and without a hint of humility, and that they must accept the grace of their version of God or else are deserving of hatred and damnation.


Edit: As I read it, Jesus said follow every letter of the old laws, but instructed people that he without sin should cast the first stone (that would have been him, wouldn't it?). The old laws said he who casts no stones is committing a horrendous sin and should themselves be stoned to death. Believers somehow don't see the contradiction, while I see nothing but.

The Pogues "Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah"

ulysses1904 says...

A sad footnote, I just read that Phil Chevron died of cancer in 2013. He wrote some great songs like "Thousands are Sailing".

And "Rabinga", from the "Straight To Hell" soundtrack. That was a bizarre movie, with The Pogues, Joe Strummer, Courtney Love, Dennis Hopper, Grace Jones in a spaghetti western in Almeria, Spain.
