I am deeply offended

Submitted by gjohnsit on Fri, 04/08/2016 - 4:54pm

I feel it necessary to point out that a recent, highly recommended diary was very callous and insulting to the persecuted minority group that I am a member of - closed-minded, intolerant assholes.
According to a recent study, Closed-Minded, Intolerant Asshole Syndrome, or CMIAS, afflicts more than 15% of the population. Famous celebrities such Charlie Sheen and Mel Gibson suffer from CMIAS (as well as alcoholism).

People afflicted with CMIAS have been victimized with such things as uncomfortable silences at parties, people not returning phone calls, and refusal to make eye contact on the street.
It's long past time my fellow CMIAS-sufferers spoke out against this rampant discrimination! It's amazing that in the 21st Century we still tolerate this sort of prejudice, instead of the more traditional forms of prejudice that CMIAS victims understand and approve of.

I call on everyone here to denounce in no uncertain terms all forms of discrimination against CMIAS.
I know I have your support.

CMIAS isn't something that needs to be cured

Society in general needs to change to accommodate our alternative lifestyle of being rude, insulting, and all-around dicks.

Is that really too much to ask?

Look friend, I believe there's a place in society for everyone

Whether it be tent jails, mental hospitals, trailer parks etc.
But geeze, ain't a whole American political party, nearly the entire south of the USA as well as many other actual states, cities, hamlets etc. accommodating enough already?
Relax friend, there's a place for you. You'll probably have to move south though.
Anyway, relax, smoke a doobie, have a beer, Shoot some guns. You are not alone.

For years they attempted to...

accommodate CMIAS sufferers with their own state and street. Unfortunately, New Jersey and Wall Street are no longer large enough to hold the crowd.

Not really

But it is considered good form to drop $10 in the tip jar if you're going to do a Kos vent.

I'd like to help you. gj, but...

I've come down with a case of FYIGMOPSS*. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, [no, I'm not], but you'll get it too, 'cause it's an inevitable result of long-term CMIAS.

Wish there was something I could do for you. [Well, actually, no I don't.]

You have no reason to feel offended because of CMIAS

discrimination, these political elites never ever get discriminated even for more than just Closed-Minded, Intolerant Asshole Syndrome (CMIAS), but they also never got discriminated for a worse syndrome, the Paranoid Asshole Conspiratorial Intolerance Syndrome (PACIS). Of course it's a serious problem, and the CMIAS sufferes of the US are co-opted and infiltrated PACIS sufferers. Even boots on the ground and drone warfare is completely weakened by the power of PACIS sufferers.

You should not dismiss this as nonsense. It's not.
Does ‘JuJu / Black Magic’ Play a Part In AFRICAN POLITICS?. The answer to this question is a resounding YES. So, you better believe it and get yourself protected. Get your checkbook ready, protection is not cheap. And you need the strongest protection that is available, otherwise you will get killed. And of course you need to believe in the medication to be effective. Like with all other drugs. Yep.
