Cavallaro is best known for his quirky work with food as art: Past efforts include repainting a Manhattan hotel room in melted mozzarella, spraying five tons of pepper jack cheese on a Wyoming home, and festooning a four-poster bed with 312 pounds of processed ham.

Jesus christ. Can you imagine what those must have been like after sitting there for a week?

Communism wafers

The wafer eats you?

 

[Zephyrus]

The wafer eats you?

No. The wafers are all you can afford.

 

[supseudonymous]

Wrong again. In communism there is only one wafer, and it belongs to everyone. Get too close to it and your life shan't be spared.

 

[Zephyrus]

What about wafer-thin mints?

 

[supseudonymous]

No such things exist. Individuality among wafers won't be recognized.

 

[Valerie]

In socialism, one person works 18 hours a day for his wafer, but you sit on your ass all the time and get your wafer.

So you can atone for raping a virgin by paying the dad 50 shekels? That doesn't sound very fair.

EDIT: Again, if this book is talking about a different time period, why is it so relevant today? Why do people take moral lessons from it when clearly it has some very bad lessons in it? And if you pick and choose, how do you know which are the right messages to take when this is the source of morality?

The old testament laws aren't relevant today.

that was kinda the whole point of Christ coming, abolishing the old laws and bringing the new covenant of forgiveness. You guys seem to forget completely about the existence of the new testament in these discussions.

Mostly because all the right wing christians run around screaming about the old testament, even though they stole the book from the jews. RIght before they decided to pitch them into boiling tar.

How christ-like.

The New Testament has possibly the worst thing of all: Hell. Do you really think it is justified for people to be TORTURED ETERNALLY for a finite crime? I certainly don't.

you go girl

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

But the fact that you touched your pee-pee last night makes everyone in the world suffer so much!

Why would it make the world suffer?

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

I said that because christians say that all sins effect other people, and I fail to see how jerking off effects anyone but you.

 

[cookiecutter]

It affects the 200-500 millions babies you just spilt on your barren gym sock

It affects God, namely by making him unhappy that you're disobeying him.

You know something, I've always found the notion of some all-powerful, non-corporeal father figure who knows everything I do to be rather creepy. I mean, I've never been caught jerking off even by my own mother or father yet there's supposed to be some fucking guy I don't even know watching me get myself off? God is basically that creepy homeless guy that shows his penis to all the girls at my school library.

You sir, are a fucking genius.
