Remember What Days It Is!

Courtesy of Canadian Cynic, lefty/progressive/whatever-we-are bloggers are today celebrating two brand new holidays.

a) “Be Polite to People With Whom You Disagree Ideologically” Day, in order to demonstrate to our political adversaries that we exemplify civility (as well as clarity of thought, reason and intelligence, of course.)

b) “Refrain From Scraping Your Genitals Across A Cheese Grater Day”. Bloggers who bragged about deliberately and ostentatiously wasting energy on Earth Hour are asked to note that we lefties/progressives/whatever-we-ares are all going to be refraining from that between 8 and 9 pm tonight.

UPDATE:

CC, Event Founder, has corrected us: “Refrain From Scraping Your Genitals Across A Cheese Grater Day” will be celebrated between 8 and 9 pm TOMORROW Night. Thank goodness, I only have to remember ONE thing today.

    ‘b” sounds like it is something you shouldn’t do, doesn’t it? Well I for one know better. I KNOW that scraping genitals on a cheese grater is actually good for you. The Cheese marketing board, the Ontario Dairy Producers and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Williams Sonoma are conspiring (with the communist media of course) to get more grant money from the government so that they can study this “issue” further and give us more pious rhetoric about how this is going to be the downfall of civilization as we know it. I am smarter than all of them….scrape, scrape.

    No, no, Treehugger, DON’T DO IT! I’m almost SURE I remember Al Gore and Michael Moore agreeing that people SHOULDN’T SCRAPE THEIR GENITALS WITH A CHEESE GRATER. If I’m not mistaken, Nancy Pelosi and Germaine Greer advised exactly the same thing – they said DON’T SCRAPE YOUR GENITALS WITH A CHEESE GRATER. Why, if there’s only ONE THING that Clinton and Obama agree on, it’s that smart people SHOULDN’T SCRAPE THEIR GENITALS WITH A CHEESE GRATER.

    Pay close attention to all these VERY SMART and PROGRESSIVE PEOPLE, Treehugger, my brother!

    Typical libtard bed-wetting. Jesus wants me to grate my genitals.

    Boys:

    If you read carefully, you’ll note that “Don’t Run Your Genitals Over A Cheese Grater” Hour isn’t until May 1. However, we here at CC HQ are more than happy to have “Don’t Slam Your Head In The Oven Door” Day sooner than that.

    We’re flexible that way.

    So when do we start the campaign to make “Be Polite to People With Whom You Disagree Ideologically” Day and “Refrain From Scraping Your Genitals Across A Cheese Grater” Day recognized as a statutory holiday? If I have to spend the entire day being polite to my ideological opponents while refraining from scraping my genitals across a cheese grater then I should at least have the day off.

    ““Be Polite to People With Whom You Disagree Ideologically” Day”

    I don’t think I’ve ever been impolite to anyone on the basis of “ideological difference” unless egregious dishonesty is an ideology.

    Is it?

    It IS a lot to remember, isn’t it?

    Well, given the current government, perhaps we could integrate the terminology, and suggest that we also refrain from scraping the genitals of Tory Statues.

    Hummmm…… did the bunker actually buy into this “Be Polite to People With Whom You Disagree Ideologically” gig? I’m with ti-guy here, ideology is one thing but being nice to ********** who can’t string three words together without showing just how ********** and ********** they are, and/or, actually work at ********** me off… well, I think they need to be told just exactly what sort of flaming ********** they are.

    ?!?!? ********** ********** ********** just happened to my comment?

    My dear colleague, we are an autonomous collective with Bakuninist leanings, as you very well know. No decision made by any party is binding on the other members unless ratified by a plebiscite yielding a not less than 85% majority. This was presented as an information item only. You are certainly free to cheese-grate your genitals or tell Kate McMillan to )@&$&, or to *&#$^! herself with a *$^@&&$ &#$%@@%#@! to your heart’s content.

    What a lovely discussion – so spirited yet civil. It’s quite soothing …

    Whooee! Is there gonna be a Genital Hour when we all leave our cheese graters home, pull up our pants and listen to Nellie Furtado singin’ a buncha grate songs? There oughta be a bigass demonstration of genital grating curtailment. That way, the counter-demonstration will be so much more meaningful.

    Republican booster Chuck Norris is already prepared.

    I believe that website is subscritption only, JB, and based somewhere in Manila.

    You know one reason I like us better than them?

    We’re funny. They’re not.

    I bet this movement has “Big Grater” crapping their pants.
