Ni!

Welcome to personality disorder level narcissism.

Bill Hicks Recorded live at the Dominion Theatre, London, 1992:

By the way, if anyone here’s in advertising or marketing… kill yourself. [audience approval] Thank you. Just a little thought… Kill yourself. Seriously though, if you are [in advertising/marketing], do [kill yourself — laughter] … There’s no rationalisation for what you do and you’re Satan’s little helpers, OK? Kill yourself, seriously. You’re the ruiner of all things good, seriously… No, this is not a joke. You’re going: “there’s gonna to be a joke coming”. There’s no fucking joke coming. You are Satan’s spawn filling the world with bile and garbage. You are fucked and you are fucking us. Kill yourself. It’s the only way to save your soul. Kill yourself. [applause, laughter] … I know all the marketing people are going, “he’s doing a joke”… There’s no joke here whatsoever. Suck a tail pipe, hang yourself, borrow a gun from a Yank friend. I don’t care how you do it. Rid the world of your evil fucking machinations.

I know what all the marketing people are thinking right now too, “Oh, you know what Bill’s doing, he’s going for that anti-marketing dollar. That’s a good market, he’s very smart.” [laughter] Oh man, I’m not doing that, you fucking evil scumbags. “Ooh, you know what Bill’s doing now, he’s going for the righteous indignation dollar. That’s a big dollar. A lot of people are feeling that indignation. We’ve done research. Huge market. He’s doing a good thing.” Goddammit, I’m not doing that, you scumbags. Quit putting a goddamm dollar sign on every fucking thing on this planet! “Ooh, the anger dollar. Huge. Huge in times of recession. Giant market. Bill’s very bright to do that.” God, I’m just caught in a fucking web. “Ooh, the trapped dollar, big dollar, huge dollar. Good market. Look at our research. We see that many people feel trapped. If we play to that and then separate them into the trapped dollar…” God, how do you live like that? I bet you sleep like fucking babies at night, don’t you? “What did you do tonight honey?” “Oh, we made ah, we made ah, arsenic ah, childhood food now, goodnight.” [lies down and snores] “Yeah, we just said you know is your baby really too loud? You know?” [snores] “Yeah, it’ll… you know the mums will love it.” [snores] [stands up] Sleep like fucking children, don’t you? This is your world isn’t it?

It’s not a question of where he grips it!

Where’s the lightning bug table?

Why is this guy always on the wrong side of things?

In with you and I’m still alive. Food is too expensive to throw out.

There are worst ways to die than keeling over after eating. I’ll take it.

I think she ate all the other creepy Black Hole Sun people and now she’s the Black Hole Sun Boss.

Can you imagine waking up and seeing that face staring at you?

Who approved this photo btw? Was this the best one of all of them they took? How much money do you have to have to get someone to help you look better than that in a photo? Like what?

Edit: oh no, whatever you do, do not zoom in, trust me

Title leaves out “or passport.”

In a push to get you to think you must have a Real ID, I’ve noticed the media constantly leaves out or minimizes the fact that a passport is sufficient to get you through an airport or any other place a Real ID is required.

So no extra fee of you have a passport.

This made me think of the episode Plague of Madness from Genndy Tartakovsky’s Primal.

Of course you’re right, and I would argue that calling a woman a “fat, ugly pig” stems from the associations I point out.

The pig insult is so common, I think we’re all trying to understand why such a common and known insult would be so much more shocking to us. It isn’t just because it comes from a sitting US president. Trump is known for his viscous insults and we’ve all heard them.

Saying, “quiet, piggy” was a mask slip more revealing than many of us can even consciously comprehend.

I grew up in the 70s and 80s when it was acceptable for parents to physically beat their children, and when when I saw this clip of Trump it shocked me because the look on his face, the finger pointing, and the sound of his voice was exactly how my father looked and sounded right before he would take off his belt to beat us with it. I can’t be the only one who has these memories.

Also using the word “piggy” is revealing of how he sees people. Pigs are associated with slaughter and murder in nearly all of our stories. We kill and eat pigs. The upper classes see the rest of us as pigs to harvest and slaughter and consume. In their eyes how dare a lowly pig meant for their dinner plates question them and talk back to them. What Trump did and said revealed all this horror.

Yeah. The minute I read the title I thought, Please don’t tell me they’re sticking cameras on these poor creatures. It disturbs me that no scientists seem to care about strapping cameras to wild creatures and what effect that has on their already difficult lives.

Even if they convince themselves that what they’re doing is somehow necessary they could at the very least admit the harm they are doing to the animal.
