On "Fixing DU" and Whether I'm An Asshole (Karma Rating Proposal)

[Beetwasher]

I'm against "fixing" DU per Skinner's proposal because I think I'm such an asshole I'd get kicked off from serious bad Karma. :evilgrin:

Thoughts?

Skinners thread for those of you who are like "Whuh?"

[demnan]

[DrWeird]

5. I've got that Dennis Leary jingle stuck in my head.

"cause I'm an asshole!..."

[IronLionZion]

8. lyrics, just for you

Asshole - Denis Leary

(Spoken)
Folks, I'd like to sing a song about the American dream.
About me, about you, about the way our American hearts beat way down
in the bottom of our chests. About that special feeling we get in the
cockles of our hearts, maybe below the cockles, maybe in the subcockle
area. Maybe in the liver. Maybe in the kidneys. Maybe even in the
colon, we don't know.

(Sung)
I'm just a regular Joe with a regular job.
I'm your average white suburbanite slob.
I like football and porno and books about war.
I got an average house with a nice hardwood floor.

My wife and my job, my kids and my car.
My feet on my table...and a cuban cigar.

But sometimes that just ain't enough to keep a man like me interested
no way
No, I've gotta go out and have fun at someone else's expense
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I drive really slow in the ultra-fast lane,
While people behind me are going insane.

I'm an asshole
I'm an asshole

I use public toilets and I piss on the seat,
I walk around in the summertime saying "How about this heat?"

I'm an asshole
I'm an asshole

Sometimes I park in handicapped spaces,
While handicapped people make handicapped faces.

I'm an asshole
I'm an asshole

Maybe I shouldn't be singing this song
Ranting and raving and carrying on
Maybe they're right when they tell me I'm wrong...

NAAAAH!

I'm an asshole
I'm an asshole

(Spoken)
Know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac El Dorado
Convertible, hot pink, with whaleskin hubcaps and all-leather cow
interior and big brown baby seal eyes for headlights... yeah! And I'm
gonna drive around in that baby at 115 miles per hour, getting 1 mile
per gallon, suckin' down quarter pound cheeseburgers from McDonald's
in the old-fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers and when
I'm done suckin' down those greaseball burgers I'm gonna wipe my mouth
on the American Flag and then I'm gonna toss the styrofoam containers
right out the side, and there ain't a goddamn thing anybody can
do about it. You know why? Because we got the bombs, that's why Two
words: Nuclear fuckin' weapons, OK? Russia, Germany, Romania, they
can have all the democracy they want...they can have a big democracy
cakewalk right through the middle of Tienamen Square and it won't make
a lick of difference, because we got the bombs, OK? John Wayne's not
dead, he's frozen! And as soon as we find a cure for cancer, we're
gonna thaw out the Duke and he's gonna be pretty pissed off. You know
why? Have you ever taken a cold shower? Well, multiply that by 15
million times, that's how pissed off the Duke's gonna be.
I'm gonna get the Duke and John Casavetti and Lee Marvin

and Sam Peckinpaw

and a case of whisky

and drive to Texas...(HEY, HEY HEY!>



Why don't you shut up and sing the song, pal?

(Sung)
I'm an asshole
I'm an asshole
A S-S H-O L-E
Everybody, A S-S H-O L-E
Arf, Arf Arf, Arf Arf, Arf Arf
Thoomph A-thoom-thoom A-thoom-thoom A-thoom-thoom
Oooooooo

(Spoken)
I'm an asshole and I'm proud of it

[jswordy]

29. And Denis Leary is right!

He is an asshole! I hate that obnoxious creep.

Other than that, life is good! Heheheheheheh...

[IronLionZion]

6. I'd be kicked out in a heartbeat

Sometimes I can hardly believe I'm still here. :P

DU would be very very small if we kicked out all the assholes :silly:

[alexisfree]

9. ???

I dont get it...:crazy:

[Beetwasher]

22. Huh?

Whuh?

[burythehatchet]

10. I'M ALL FOR IT

as long as I can be the deliverer of INSTANT KARMA - ZZZZZZZZAP

[Modem Butterfly]

11. Shit, I've gotten three e-mails telling me to leave DU

And I'm not even to 2000 posts yet. Sign me up as a resident of Asshole City.

[Beetwasher]

12. Really?????????

Damn, I NEVER get emails asking me to leave! I feel left out. I guess I have to try harder!

[Modem Butterfly]

14. And the ironical part is I've never had a post deleted...

...well, except for one post calling someone a moron, but other than that, nope.

I guess I'm just good at pissing some people off.

[LynneSin]

18. Hey Beetwasher - will you leave DU

Now do you feel better

:loveya:

[Beetwasher]

21. Whew!

Thought I was losing my touch! ;-)

Can't wait to see you in a bunny suit! You are going to look soooo adorable!

[LynneSin]

23. HEY, Will Pitt will look even cuter

so there!

[Beetwasher]

26. *shudder* Don't Creep Me Out Like That!

It's an image I don't need...You in the suit though?!?! GO PATS!!!

[SarahB]

17. Every time I get something negative...

they turn out to be trolls and are banned within a couple of days. It never fails. I know awhile back a few long time DUers had some serious misconceptions about me, but hopefully that has since been more than cleared up.

[Modem Butterfly]

19. Yeah, they've all gone bye-bye

I find the situation more amusing than distressing, but I'm a hard-core liberal living in a red state, so I'm a natural contrarian!

[underpants]

13. Kill them all and let GOD sort them out

DAMN! I keep posting that on the wrong threads.

Mods please remove

[GRLMGC]

15. There are plenty of assholes

There's no way they could get rid of them all. You should be fine :evilgrin:

[JVS]

16. I believe that user input should only be redemptive, never vindictive

[txaslftist]

20. I don't wanna know what people think of me...

fragile ego, you know?

I could stand being called a neocon or damn libertarian or deaniac shill & stuff, but "you're not really funny." would cut me right to the bone.

[buddhamama]

24. hmmm...

if you're an asshole than i must be one too, cause you're one of my absolute favorite DUers. You are seriously friggin funny too! The funniest, imo.

[Beetwasher]

27. Awww shucks!

:hi:

[rbnyc]

25. I don't think you're an asshole.

But I'm worried that I'd be afraid to be an asshole, and sometimes, I'm better when I'man asshole.

[Beetwasher]

28. That's Because YOUR So Nice!

How's mom-life? :hi:

[rbnyc]

30. Love it.

Except when I call home from work and the baby is crying in the background. It makes my heart ache and my boobs explode!

[Beetwasher]

31. LOL! Ahhh! 'Splodin' Boobs!

;-)
