Good Grief Friday

It's Good Friday, the day on which the world's Christians somberly reflect on the torture and slow, painful execution of Jesus Christ... so let's see how the man the Evangelicals love has commemorated this most solemn day of the liturgical calendar:



Christ wept... the man is an idiot. I can picture him standing at the foot of Golgotha, looking up at the suffering Nazarene and telling him, "You think you've got it bad, the Fake News Media is being mean to me!" Holy Week started off with Facepalm Sunday and it hasn't gotten any better.

Among the lunatic fringe (sorry to be mentioning them in back-to-back posts, but not sorry, I love this stuff), it's a day of full-blown idolatry, according to their stupid number-letter substitution 'code', 4/10/20 corresponds to DJT:



Who needs that peacenik Jesus guy when you can swap him out for the God-Emperor Trump? The nutters had been talking about Ten Days of Darkness, which many of them had interpreted as an internet blackout that would have ended today with the announcement that Hillary Clinton is in Gitmo. Some of them, Rapture Preacher style, revised this to start today, the Dear Leader's Alphanumeric Code Day. Poor things, they are suffering from a bad case of Q Waitus Interruptus.

It's been a weird day, and I'm just reading about these nutbags. I'd spend the afternoon in solemn contemplation of the Passion of the MAGAts, but my time is better spent taking a nap before a big family conference call/happy hour this evening. I'd bust out the bottle of Tullamore Dew, but I have to be at work at midnight.

    >>I can picture him standing at the foot of Golgotha, looking up at the suffering Nazarene and telling him, "You think you've got it bad, the Fake News Media is being mean to me!"<<

    This is wonderful. I can picture it as a scene in a movie. If it can't be in a movie, I pictured it as a cartoon. If it can't be a cartoon, I can picture it inscribed on the front facade of the Fifth Avenue Trump Tower after the city of New York uses eminent domain to take it over for use as a homeless shelter.

    Yours very crankily,
