Schadenfreude is for lovers

Having established that certain things are crap, and seeing how much people love to complain about crap, it's no surprise that the 'net is littered with angry comments and posts about said crap.
Yet, there is a special brand of person who will get super-ass angry 13 or 14 times a day, often for no other reason than extreme boredom and/or gas pains. I like to call those people a**holes who spend most of their life leaving bitter and divisive comments.

Here is the process I believe these jerk-heads use:

1)First write the review out on a word processing program and go over the text a few times. I find reading it out loud helps! Make sure to check your spelling!

2)Next stand up and walk away from the computer and take a break for about 15 minutes. Have a spot of tea, or perhaps even a nice cookie.

3)Then return to your desk, slam your hand in a drawer repeatedly, drink a bottle of widow cleaner, scream "I hate (Item/person that does not deserve enough attention to merit any response positive or negative) more than Nazis, the Devil and lukewarm light beer!"

4)Erase every half way intelligent thing you previously wrote and then type as fast as possible with all the force and anger you can muster, leaving no doubt that you are upset in a way that would make people uncomfortable at parties, if in fact you were ever invited to parties. (please avoid dripping blood on the keyboard as they are hard to clean blood out of).

5)Press "enter" in a dramatic fashion.
6)Repeat everyday until you die in a horrible Rascal accident at an all-you-can eat seafood restaurant

Sometimes even a headless cardinal finds a nut

Not all web commentary is vapid, worthless and unnecessarily profane. Occasionally, you come across a product review that hits the nail (or in this case the cardinal) right on the head. I think you will agree* the following is why Amazon has customer reviews. Oh, and it doesn't hurt that it made me laugh 'til I cried. I'm a sick that way.

Perky Pet 337 Squirrel-Be-Gone III Feeder, 8 lb capacity
Bird Guillotine!
August 31, 2008 By J. Morris (Delray Beach, FL USA)

"This bird feeder became a guillotine for one of our cardinals when a black bird landed on the perch and the weigh closed off the hole that the cardinal was eating from... I'd rather feed a squirrel than to kill beautiful cardinals."
I'd rather do neither, but thanks for the heads-up J. Morris!

p.s sorry about all the hack head/decapition jokes, I'm not getting enough sleep.

Who Knew?

Today, we here at Stupid Galore thought it was time to get serious.
To our shock, we have discovered a worldwide scourge few knew existed. Is it the terrible economy? Nope. Global Warming? Not even close. The lack of a high quality scented toilet paper? No way.
The real evil looming over mankind turns out to be: Left-Handed Popes who don't double check the cover of their book before it goes to the printer.

I wish I was kidding.

Check out this kinda weird and totally sad/stupid review on Amazon of Pope Benedict XVI's book Jesus of Nazareth.

Jesus of Nazareth (Paperback)
by Pope Benedict XVI (Author)
left-handed Christ, May 22, 2008
By
Pauline T. Moulder (Pensacola, FL USA)
Jesus of Nazareth (Hardcover)

"The picture of Jesus is from an original work of art. In the original picture, Jesus is blessing with his right hand. In this picture, Jesus is blessing with his left hand. Now when you publish a book, accuracy, at least for the cover photo is most important and easy to spot. A true pope would never allow such a "mistake." Benedict XVI preaches contrary to Catholic Doctrine; He even baptizes people on the backs of their heads, creating invalid baptisms. The heresy in this book is badly disguised as Catholicism, but nobody wants to notice the left-handed antichrist or the left-handed pope and his heresies. The devil must be laughing up a storm. Benedict XVI could show up with red horns on his head breathing fire and still they would make excuses for him. They would probably call it a medical condition."

Sponge Bob's Death Pool

Vacations can be a giant pain in the ass. If you're traveling with kids just multiply your worries by X (x=number of brats - number of xanax you can take without falling into a coma).

Just thinking about it makes me want to burn my passport and run, not walk, to get a vasectomy, but there are ways to avoid having a terrible time on your trip into madness. The travel experts here at Stupid Galore strongly suggest that you do your homework before embarking on a soul-crushing family vacation. Handy websites like TripAdvisor will help you find the right hotel at the right price and in the right location!

Let's say your little booze-induced mistakes worship at the feet of one Mr. Sponge Bob, if so then you might want to look into Nickelodeon's Family Hotel in Orlando. Browsing the reviews yields what you might expect: some people think it's the bee's knees, others think it's the bee's crotch. But one review jumped out at us as not only being hilariously tragic but also tragically hilarious. Before you read the review please remember to keep this invaluable travel tip in mind: Nothing will ruin a trip like warm beer and dead children. Enjoy!

Trauma that we'll never recover from
by: Traveling-Momma5

"Not enough life jackets to accomodate the families that wanted them, and we witnessed a small lifeless boy being drug from the pool, which completely tramatized our family. We're hoping and praying he will fully recover, we were told by the staff that he eventually did begin breathing.
Dirty room, many things broken (lights, phones, refrigerator, safe). Restricted shuttle hours, broken icee machine, broken coffee machine, warm beer.
NOT worth the money, not even close."
