Pass the Meathammer
It was reported on Morning Ireland today that some Irish property developers, unable to pay back the huge loans they received from the banks now the economy is in the toilet, are planning on suing said banks for giving them the money in the first place.
Should it go to court those banks, some of which are now in public ownership will be using our money to defend this and if they lose, guess who’ll be paying the bill.
Anyone hear anymore on this? I couldn’t track down any further info. Also, I don’t know if I do want to learn anymore in case my head spontaneously combusts with rage.

I want to sue my credit companies for being so stupid as to give money to someone as stupid as me.

I want to sue them for being so stupid as giving money to you too.

Rage, only rage. News like this replaces my rational mind with a sharp-edged briquette of baked turds that smoulders and smokes and stinks out my whole being until the object of that rage is either forgotten about or destroyed utterly and forever.
If this is true, then the people suggesting this–whether they get their day in court or not–need to be stripped of all their wordly possessions, because the idea of these people having any part of my world in their possession is ridiculous. They need to be stripped of any remaining monies and titles and identifying features and thrown out into the dark.
And there will be no pity for them. For years these scheming wifeswappers have curled up in great mounds of flesh at night, tangles of bare sweaty limbs, whispering platitudes about wolves and sheep and laughing until they cry.

If they keep this up, someone will have to take over for a century or so to fix things, and–I would imagine–the flag of this New Transitional Government will be bright red with a golden claw hammer in the middle, and the claw hammer will be dripping with brains.

See what you’ve gone and done? One post has turned me into an extremist of some sort.

Neil, the post didn’t turn you into an extremist. It simply made you aware of an inner truth: you are an extremist. This is called “enlightenment.” People usually seek it upon a hilltop, and there are inevitably yaks involved somehow. Count your blessings.
