Anybody else care to emulate any murderers and killers today?
Edmund Kemper III is my favourite serial killer.
He had a beautiful sense of humour, especially when dealing with psychologists.
eg. "When I see a pretty girl walking down the street, I think two things. One part of me wants to take her out and talk to her, be real nice and sweet and treat her right. [And the other part of me thinks] what her head would look like on a stick"
This quote is often mis-attributed to Ed Gein.
I got this information from Wiki - although I have read some literature attributed to him. I think there should be more. I find him vastly more interesting than Gein.
Strange that would be attributed to Gein sometimes; I can't ever imagine him having said something like that.
Comedians have made light of far far worse people. *cue the Manson jokes*
Oh well, I keep forgetting that if lots of people do something then it's okay.
***jumps off cliff with the rest of the lemmings***
I suppose you would love to roll back 50 years to good old God Save the Queen crap and anything against religion or the national ideal being strictly verboten. Because that is what comedians have helped to break.
And yes, you do need to lighten up. Or go and live in mother Russia,
No, I'm conservative in some areas, liberal in others. And America's just as much a dictatorship as Russia thank you, so I reckon I may as well stay here.
I wonder where this mix of policies comes from. Lets guess your political views take the line of being harsh on everyone else whilst being soft on yourself. Your being self-centric here, and of course what you want I suspect would be utterly unworkable.
Russia is far more autocratic than the US, ask any political commentator. Of course, that in effect means Russia is rather more dictatorial too.
Laughing to ease the pain, to break social boundaries which are so constrictive that people end up choking even if they smile, that's one thing.
Oh, so we should have social boundaries, but ones that just suit yourself. If thats your attitude, I am sure there is a nice empty cave somewhere for you to live in and go and have your own code of social boundaries.
The reality is that social boundaries harm us collectively as a whole, and should be gotten rid of in near entirety. What you are failing to recognize is how social boundaries affect different people depending on which boundary, and are only picking out the ones that harm you...
But there is no "light side" to pure suffering and unnecessary suffering at that. That's just sadism. You wish to place this under the guise of "comedy" or some Free Speech type of bullshit, have at it; nothing I say or do can obviously do a damn thing to convince you other wise. But don't expect me to sit by and just laaaaaaaaaugh. This isn't the fucking Three Stooges or Looney Tunes where somebody gets hit and just jumps right back up as though nothing happened. People died. And I have better things to laugh at than this.
Once you bar one thing for being tasteless, its a slippery slope. And yes, there are those who would argue for the abolition of Looney Tunes for inciting violence, with very similar arguments to yourself.
