Scott Adams Fafoed


I rarely follow the advice of the majority when it comes to leaving the dead in peace, even if they were miserable human beings. We're not supposed to say they were miserable human beings. My father wasn't a monster, but he was not involved in his five daughter's lives unless it was to yell at us. There were moments he stepped up as a dad like the time my sister got stranded 400 miles away and he drove to get her. He was good with helping others. He kept road flares in the trunk of his car in case there was an accident and someone needed help. He shared the vegetables he grew in his garden with the bar hops at his favorite watering hole. Like all of us he was a complex human being. He was raised in a time where men showed no emotions other than anger. So on the day of his funeral I remained mute after the pastor asked if anyone wanted to get up and say a few kind words for M. You could hear the clock in the hallway tick because of the silence. Finally my brother in law stood up and walked to the podium. It was clear he was angry at us because we refused to even fake it and try and find something good to say. If you're not such a good person in life I'm not going to pretend you were and I don't think we should remain mute when bad people die. 

Yesterday I had planned on writing about Scott Adams, the creator of the comic, Dilbert. I might have read the comic years ago in a print newspaper. I don't recall it being that interesting. Adams died yesterday from cancer. He was 68. If you go through the media today you will find the standard obit, written by some intern years ago, ready to be shared. I'm sure right wing rags will have some nice things to say about him. They'll have to dig pretty deep. I don't see anything nice to write about him. This is where I should leave it, right? But, I keep thinking about this and him and the choices he made in life. I write this because I don't want people glorifying this person after his death like they are doing with Charlie Kirk. Both men were awful human beings. The world is better off without them. Below is an example of some of Adam's beliefs.



When Adams found out he had cancer he begged Trump to help him. I guess he didn't have a million dollars to hand over. Trump doesn't bother otherwise. Adams allegedly converted to Catholicism shortly before his death, " just in case."

As far as I can see, he had no redeeming qualities. But I'm sure I will see little tributes to him, likely the potato head Dilbert crying or some sentimental crap like that. 

Charlie Kirk was a racist, misogynistic piece of garbage. 

Scott Adams was a weird, creepy, horrible human who made a living drawing potato heads.

That it was you need to remember.

She's Still Dead

   Ashli Babbitt was a traitor to this country. They can have all the ceremonial shenanigans the military likes to present as the deceased has been offered full military honors (We all know who requested that) it still won't negate the fact that she and thugs like her stormed a government building to do harm to others. They shit in the hallways. They carried confederate flags. They brought zip ties, bats and rage. The current regime can sugar coat it all they want but one day the orange man will be manure for his golf course grass and we can go back to truth being important. She deserved to be shot. More of them should have been shot that day. Every police officer should have followed the example of the police officer who did his job that day. These deplorables remind me of the fictional character, Ignatius J. Reilly, a lazy, selfish narcissist who decided to gather the factory employees in protest of some useless, archaic self indulgent mischief. He brought from home his soil...

Benny, Benny And No Regrets

  It's just so hard to keep up with maga creeps. Here's Benny  Johnson, the guy who started the rumor that DC was a cesspool. He also claimed his house burned down while his family was in it. He's a liar. His house never burned down. You really can't believe much of what this asshat says because he has a habit of playing with facts. He also likes to steal other people's words. He has been fired and suspended numerous times for plagiarism, at least 41 times. It just boggles my mind when these people blatantly lie, then are outraged when called out. People like Johnson, Trump and Leavitt have probably lived their whole lives creating a make believe existence where lying is the norm. At some point it just becomes routine where they find lying acceptable and necessary. To me they are empty shells of mindless walking automatons. They live in a bubble of falsehoods. These are the people in charge of our country.  The NYTimes has done a story about Pinocchio Johnson. I dec...

An Empty Vessel

Image
He fills his head with Bible quotes  to silence the storm inside  An empty, hollow shell he mimics in disguise  You were not wanted You were unplanned  You are a nothing You have no stand  He bows his head and speaks in tongues  to still the flames of rage the pretender, fake, the fraud  hiding in plain sight You were a mistake  A thirty minute accident  a constant regretful memory  who seeks reason to breathe  from holy ghosts  and devils in red ties  the more you take the lesser man you are smoke and mirrors a shifting shape unseen  You are a mistake  You know it well A fake, a fraud, a lie. *Yes, I'm thinking of a certain someone we know.
