Edie Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I still don't think anyone was making fun. A little hurricane humor I found on teh Interwebs: -------------------- Top 10 Reasons Hurricane Season is Like Christmas..... --------------------Major vibes to those in Ike's path. 42.gif Did you see that part? I don't think Jack meant anything nasty with his. Poon = Neil = whatdidisay. Sistersooie and Neil are friends. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Me likey...wonder if I can make that an avatar I was going to send it in a PM - but it would not work. It is an animated gif file. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Edie Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 'Major vibes' doesn't give a free pass Really. Based on both of what I know about Cryptique (and how genuinely nice he is) and the contents of that specific post, I disagree. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cryptique Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 'Major vibes' doesn't give a free passOh, you were talking about me. People who know me know how genuinely concerned I've been for Galveston, Houston, and the whole Texas coast. If you can't make light of a bad situation (well before it even began, I might add), maybe you need to reexamine your own attitude. You don't know me at all, so you might want to think twice before you try to portray me as some kind of insensitive monster. edit: I should also point out that the humorous piece I posted was something I copied from the website of a resident of the Houston area.

Maybe I was a bit harsh, but as I sit here trying desperately to get in touch with my brother who was unable to leave due to his job, I find no real avenue to find a way to 'make light of a bad situation'/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bobbob1313 Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I mean, really, where I live, hurricanes are a part of life. We make jokes about them because it's easier than getting freaked out 4+ times a summer. People have hurricane parties. I fully understand what people are going through, but I don't think people can't be a little lighthearted about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tellya Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 oooh hurricane parties. I just learned that people actually do this. I want to attend a hurricane party. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bobbob1313 Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 was that shit that hit us saturday night considered a hurricane? Have you ever looted after a hurricane b2? I have not looted, though everyone I know has street signs that were knocked off from storms, and I've got a big stop sign in my garage. I also very nearly took a stop light that was knocked out, but that thing was surprisingly heavy. Well, finish it! I've got nothing... But really, what needs to happen is that the rest of the south and eastern parts of this country need to wake up and adopt the building codes that South Florida put into place after Andrew. A hurricane of similar strength hitting South Florida won't do near as much damage as it would almost anywhere else because we actually prepare for them, know what to expect, and build our houses accordingly.

It isn't often you can just get your hands on a stoplight these days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
