Brilliant parody? Or Sign of Right-Wing Interbreeding?
From this gem of a blog, via Atrios.
"Once I realized what happen I moved to where there was an open seat by me. My brothers did not say anything at first. But after class when they saw why I changed seats. And found out what happened the night before led them to make some very hurtful accusations. Specifically that I was starting to be wiped........
If you are a women or an under educated man let me explain the seriousness of wiped accusations. And the even greater seriousness of actually being wiped.
Though out human history men have always been the leaders. It is the natural way things should be. And is also the case in most other species. As men we have the ability to make decisions with a clear mind. We are not slaves to our emotions. That is why our nations for founding fathers in their great wisdom decided that only men should vote and hold office.....
All of this to say Men have a responsibility to make sure things is kept under control. Part of this is peer to peer accountability. That is why when you see your friend is taking orders from a skirt. You have the moral and social duty to give him hell. So he sees the air of his ways and turns to the light so that he can reclaim is manhood.
So now you know why them saying this is so serious. Because their false accusations show that they are starting to question my manhood.
But when they were giving me a hard time about this at lunch new more troubling problem came to light about another one of my fraternity brothers. He legally went to go see Vagina Monologs last month with his girl friend. If these acquisitions are true. I don’t think I could look at him again the same way. If you go to see that satanic worship you are wiped beyond repair. You would have already been wiped before you went to see it but now she is just running up the score."
wiped = whipped
I'm pretty sure this site is parody. The comments seem to confirm that as every single one of them either mocks the author or congratulates him on his brilliant humor.
Myself, I think the site is moderately amusing if parody, but not outstanding. It's not hard to pretend to be an idiot.
Parody. I couln't stomach anything past the current post (on his friend getting married), but comparing that with the excerpt that you posted here, it's either a parody or a self-consciously hyperbolic manifesto. I didn't see anything on there about politics, though (again, I didn't read much), so why color him right wing? Whether parody or not, isn't it a little flattering to associate his ramblings with any kind of directed political philosophy?
Because, as we all know, idiots are all conservative.
Good point. I suppose I said that because the people making fun of him are on left-wing sites and this is the kind of person left-wingers enjoy making fun of.
For myself--at first I kind of doubted it was a parody, but the last few posts (after all the comments) leave little room for another conclusion. Assuming it is a parody though, I think it's pretty brilliant--not only because so many people were fooled, but also because the material seems so original.
You're kidding, right? Brilliant? Puh-leeze! It's not even very funny, much less original. The famed German humorlessness must be messing with your funny bone.
Are you serious? Did you read the post about the blasphemous professor and the perils of being wiped? Or when his girlfriend tries to kiss him and he compares it to a dog peeing on the wall? Or when he coins the word "desingleized"?
I'll have to respectfully disagree.
Ok.
Also, there's a true stroke of genius in misspelling "err" as "air." I also loved reading about his desire to go to lawschool - one of the great pleasures of my current job is the rich schadenfreude of witnessing exactly this sort of asshat get dinged. And yes, we DO get calls from people alleging that "if I was black" they would've gotten in.
Um, no.
Although, when he spells "accusations" as "acquisitions," it's a bit over the line.
looks like i got some people hear to
John, you're a great man. Keep up the struggle against those that would keep us wiped!
Bros before hos, man. Bros before hos.
Nuts before sluts, man. Nuts before sluts.
So yeah, apparently it was a joke - he's put up a message. The great thing is that apparently he really is a terrible speller, which is what lent the experiment most of its versimilitude.
