Helltown Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Guess I'm just one of those weird people who think all people regardless or race, religion, orientation (sexual or otherwise), or tendency to whine/piss/moan/complain about stupid stuff. Wish me a Merry Christmas and you'll get a cheerful "Happy Holidays!" back, same goes for any holiday in December. I worked at a Jewish Community Center as a teen and was consistently wished a Happy Hannukah (sp?) by the patrons and most of the senior staff (most of the lesser peons were Catholic and the Merry Christmas sort) and I would happily fire back "Happy Hannukah to you too!", even to the jerks that thought I was their personal towel wrangler (I was the lifeguard, there to make sure they didn't drown not hand out towels). Guess my point is that every group has their whiners, every group has their jerks, and once that's universally acknowledged we can all get around to the big points of every last holiday this season... Freedom, peace, and the continued survival of the species that is Man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CuCulain42 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 All I'm going to say is I don't care if you wish me a happy whatever-holiday-your-religion-happens-to-celebrate, I'll still wish you a Happy Darwin Day in Feb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclimbin Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Freedom, peace, and the continued survival of the species that is Man. I think you mean "The species that is Personness," right, Helltown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vejlin Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 So um, are they gonna put up a Darwin Decoration? I'm thinking some kind of installation where it's possible to get seriously hurt if you're an idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vejlin Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 would work for me. As long as it's capable of making idiots unable to reproduce it will qualify as a Darwin Ornament IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qwyksilver Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 So um, are they gonna put up a Darwin Decoration? Do they even make such a thing? It's in the shape of a foot being driven into the gonadatorial region of a man's equator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you mean "The species that is Personness," right, Helltown? Well I can only think of a small handful of feminists that object to the species being referred to as Man. I mean it's biblical and all that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Jack Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I've decided to celebrate my own holiday this year... I'll call it Mug Ap Owgro. It's going to be one of the Great Religious Celebrations of my Me-ism religion. I'm going to celebrate it by tying a dead decaying duck around my neck with a rope and running naked through the streets on Dec. 25th screaming out pornographic limmericks in ancient Etruscan, and then sue the pants off anybody who complains about it.

smokingwreckage Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I thought a Darwin Tree would start off as algae, then move towards some sort of grass, then cycad, and finally be a flowering tree of some sort. Besides, evolution isn't about survival of the SMARTEST. It's about survival of whoever breeds the fastest and then eats everyone else. As such a big family gathering at which a great many smaller and/or slower animals are eaten would be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kheprera Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 Actually, grass didn't come into existence until after the last major Ice Age, IIRC. Trees and ferns came first. So it would probably be algae, mold, fern, conifer, scrub brush, grass... Ary - full of useless stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
