So, a friend of mine on Facebook, who I always figured was an intelligent and thoughtful guy, posted a note which was, in my humble opinion, composed entirely of 100% pure, uncut, hand-picked, dry-roasted Columbian fail. In it, this friend, who is a Lutheran pastor, lambasted President Obama and the Democratic Congress for daring to go after AIG's misuse of bailout funds to pay bonuses to their executives.
Yeah, I know.
Here, for those of you who would be interested in a sampling of such high-test fail, and for context purposes, is the letter he wrote. I have taken the liberty of redacting his actual name (Facebook being what it is, everyone's real name shows), and replaced it with initials.
( Cut for those who wish to skip )
I'm not sure on what planet he's been preaching for the last eight years. It sure as hell wasn't Earth.
Obviously, such a posting spawned a comment thread. That thread proved to be, for the most part, a generous helping of farm-fresh failcream to add to the initial dose. I could not decide what part to post, so I posted all of it here.
Again, I have changed all names but mine to initials, and replaced my actual name with "Flewellyn" and "Flew" as appropriate.
( Cut to spare your friends page )
This was, on the whole, such a wonderous serving of fail that I felt a duty to preserve it for posterity. Or perhaps posterior. I'm still ruminating on the events recorded herein, so I may post some thoughts later.
