the sad thing is, the things talked about here, are soo far over the head of ALOT of Americans

maybe not for lack of intelligence... but literally for people getting so caught up in the theatre, so caught up in Republican/Democrat bs that they fail to see what is really going on

politics for the politicians, not the people
corruption and corporate mandates

and the people eat this all up as the rich get richer, and they become serfs once again

because its all wrapped up in patriotism and religion... and any sane person leaves those at the door when it comes to politics

honestly, do Americans realize for all their "USA USA" and "WE'RE NUMBER 1" chanting, that the rest of the world sees this as the decline of an empire? (wonder how many angry Americans that will rile up)... and by this, I don't just mean the debt ceiling debate... but the apathy towards your fellow Americans when it comes to health care and other social services... let alone the other 95% of the world's population...

the saddest thing is this has all happened before, the economics even in America itself... sad not to learn from history... but then, it's usually only onlookers as opposed to the subject themselves who realize exactly whats going to happen when the subject jumps off the ledge, soo hopped up on patriotism that they think they can fly

General Leo, FF3, was my saddest. 7 is close though.

Allegedly the saddest song in the world:

the saddest thing about this statement is that the ironic hypocripsy of it is completely lost on you. this brand of stupidity is precisely the reason why the bible states that any one who says in their heart there is no god is a fool.


In reply to this comment by JiggaJonson:
If anything, our discussion has reminded me of why I detest people like you. You've rekindled my passion for arguing on this subject because it bothers me when people simply refuse to budge on a position. Unwavering opinions are inherently ignorant because they don't allow for criticism.

If you walk away from our discussions with anything let it be this; I am your enemy so long as you refuse to allow for the possibility that your position could be refuted; or in other words, as long as you are unreasonable. I will come at you with all tenacity and rigor presently available to me to exercise my belief that being unreasonable is a bad thing. Fictitious beliefs often cause real harm, and I intend to "show you the light" as it were.

Your video, QI - The Saddest Song, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Jesus Christ, that was like the saddest video I've ever seen. We need a *sad channel just for this video. I'm glad that dog got at least a couple of good years, but jeez... videos like this make me lose faith in humanity.

The statist solution would be to prevent the corps from selling to anyone but themselves.


Right. What a dream world you must live in. I bet Santa Claus is real, too.

Haha! Way to go statist libertarian idiots!


FTFY. This is pure capitalism at work. The manufacturers, sociopathic corporations (by definition) run by sociopathic CEOs (by training), sell the weapons to whomever will buy them. Gotta make a buck, you know.

The statist solution would be to prevent the corps from selling to anyone but themselves.

The saddest thing about this is that even this pile of poo poo her sorry excuse for a brain managed to come up with and convince itself is brilliant is nothing new, it's been done before (unfortunately). I have a better idea, we round up girls like you, introduce them to prostitution and explain to them they would be better serving mankind by whoring themselves out than by trying to be creative, I can't claim pimping is a concept I came up with but at least we know it works.

Also, why do people "mercy-clap"? Wouldn't it be better to shatter her tiny world by letting her know she's retarded than to encourage her to spread her idiocy and bask in it?

The year's saddest video by far.


Didn't you used to play "Cowboys and Indians" (aka Manifest destiny)?

The year's saddest video by far.

I think it was a while ago. Apparently shortly after Lucky Louie was cancelled. He has a new show which you are referring to, now. If I had to guess this is probably from '06 or '07. If you remember, one of the opening scenes of his new show was him getting a divorce, so that makes sense that his divorce happened somewhere inbetween. Also if you listen to his standup "Shameless" released in 2007 he talks about the saddest handjob he's ever gotten from his (then) wife and he refers to her as his wife. Looking back on it, that story could be an indicator of the state of his marriage.

Here's a link to that bit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWhSfln1O4k

That Louis CK radio thing you posted - when was that recorded? He's talking about being married, and having his show cancelled. I thought he was divorced and his show was going to a second season? Where am I?

This is one of the greatest animated things I've ever seen. How could anyone not laugh at ear jerking and space boner?!

That is the single saddest thing I have ever heard.
