Oh sky cake, Why are you so delicious!?
…the old sky cake dodge…
lol
I really need to just think of that when I hear people carry on about their faith. Great post!
Its very funny, but not very accurate. “don’t rape and kill each other” has existed long before religion.
John Locke – Do you mean to tell me that this isn’t the way it actually happened? I am so disillusioned, I may just have to kill a sky cookieist.
No sky doughnut? Damn!
What about sky ice cream! I call a delicious, yet brutal jihad against all you sky ice cream deniers!
Bring it.
frickin’ funny, but i gotta admit disappointment at the religion=morality premise… Patton’s smarter than that. ¿right?
Unfortunately, it does seem like some people need the threats of religion to keep them moral.
DF, you’ve introduced me to Patton, and I shall be thankful forever! He’s so fantastic. I will have to see him live at some point — clearly. The cleverness of this kind of humour is how insidiously accurate it is. Boil off the magic, and one is left with … cake.
Why do you mock me, O God?
*Lord
Oh! It’s Remy from Ratatouille!
