I seriously just think we should put lurking_guest, adhay, and ivan astikov in a room together and see if they can start a cult, or something.

If you make our heads hurt we cannot help organize the revolution which is so fervently to be desired. No more fluoridated water - check. Remove amalgam fillings - check. Maintain an alkaline acid-base balance - check. Real paragraphs and complete words - PLEASE!!!

A couple of hundreds dollars at Home depot will buy a RO filter to remove most of the fluoride and any dentist will remove your old mercury fillings easily. Not sure if the maintaining an alkaline-acid balance is much left to run a revolution over. I can't see it fitting easily on a poster or generating much of a rallying cry from the masses.

What I've learned from the OP's rant. 6 billion people are idiots.

What's shocking is that he got smacked down in his last thread for whining about the top 1%, which he believed required tens of millions of dollars. After being shown to be wrong, he expands his definition of the elite tenfold.

By the transitive property, he'll next resurface to rally us against the mean ol' top 100%.
 
I got as far as "Sarah Palin is right" and my mind just wouldn't let me read any more.

The People of the world have more in common with one another than the privileged "TOP" ten percent of the world.

Lurking, have you ever slowed down long enough to realize that you are part of that top ten percent? Yes. If you have enough to eat every day, shelter, hot and cold running water -- not to mention the absurd luxuries of things like computers and ipods and celll phones and cars -- you are definitely in that top ten percent. And when those luxuries are added, you are probably in the top two or three percent.

Someone posted a chart showing the distribution of wealth and how most Americans fit in. Does anyone remember something similar to that? Lurking needs to count her or his blessings and then go out and make the world a better place.
 
Here is my condensed version of the OP:

Some people have money and power.

Many other people don't.

This is a very BAD thing! umkay?

Sprinkle in various names of people and organizations and write your own crazy rant! It's fun, it's easy, anyone can do it!
 
I don't quite make it into the top 10% if I count only my own wages, though I make it into the top 15%. Of course, I don't know anyone in the U.S. who doesn't make more than a couple thousand a year, especially if you average it across their lifetime.

This was proved about three threads ago, and I've been trying to get her to acknowledge it since then. But she seems to lose interest in these threads after a day or two, and never comes back, until it's time to post the next installment in a new thread.
 
Is there some meaning to splitting the word as "LIB ER AL"? I've seen "LIE-BERAL" and variations, the meaning there is pretty obvious, but wtf is "LIB ER AL"?
 
Next time I write an essay, or need to submit something for publication, I'm going to use the OP's writing style. It's just so gosh darn effective and persuasive!

OBAMA..the "Great White (0r, not so 'white'...) Hope" that has proven that his election speeches are nothing more than screed.

As Sarah Palin has said, "How is that 'Hopey/Changey 'Thing' workin' for you?"

About the same as it would have worked if (God fucking forbid) she had been elected to office (I mean, the real office). Funny how things people say aren't always congruent with things people do.

"Hmm, I've tried CAPITALIZING for emphasis but my message still isn't getting across. I know, I'll break up words into their SYL LAB LES as well. They'll have to take my arguments seriously after that!"
