Did anyone read the comments below the You Tube version? they were almost all like, "Yeah, thank the lard for sending a ghastly tornado to kill more than 50…"

The World's Largest Coalition of Nontheists and Nontheist Communities!
Hang With Friends
Information
Come on in, pull up a chair!
Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Thanks for the great quotes Tony and Loren! And for the chuckle, Chris!
I'm upset because Cheezburger had a front page picture of a man smashing a woman's face, like it was something to cheer for. I always went there for cute cats, not to be virtually assaulted.
Is the cat with the really big bite yours, booklover?
Have a peaceful night, all.

That's true Lillie!
@sk8eycat, that is a scary situation to be in. We are in tornado country here, but there is also a fault-line, but I don't think it would do too much damage in my city.

@booklover and Lille: I live in Southern California...I think most of my (English-speaking) neighbors would get the joke. We know from experience that you can't "stop" it, but wish we could. We're ALL sort of quietly biting our nails knowing "The Big One" is 25 - 50 years overdue. 1994 was bad enough.

Or they wouldn't know you couldn't stop it. (plate tectonics, that is)

Love your thought for the day sk8eycat. I'll bet if you put that on a shirt, 3/4 of the people you ran into wouldn't even know what it meant.

Great quotes Tony and Loren. :) Good morning everyone!

And in congruence with your quote, Tony:
It is impossible to debate a person who will not handicap himself with a knowledge of the facts.

Natalie A Sera commented on Dallas the Phallus's group LINGUAPHILES & SESQUIPEDALIANS"And then, just to confuse things, there's polymath, which is from the Greek poly = much and manthanein = to learn.
