Dumbshit of the Week Award
I know I have not given this award out in recent weeks, but truthfully, I have been unable to decide to give it too. So many people and organizations have reduced themselves to overwhelming levels of sheer stupidity in recent months, which makes it extremely difficult to pin down a winner. But, as usual, someone or something always finds away to claw their way to the top and latch on to this award. Might take a little longer at times, but some asshole always comes screaming down the aisle to claim this award. And it happened this week.
So without further ado, I present the Dumbshit of the Week Award (and in this case, possibly the year) to the entire fucking nation of Sudan. Their blatant ignorance, self-important, insolent swaggering has plunged the country into a religious sanitarium. Caught in the middle of this, and sparking the international story is one English teacher, Gibbons be her name, a woman who is trying to help the children of the country by providing them with basic skills by which they might one day further their lives to some ending other than homicidal, religiously fueled rage. When the class of schoolchildren, and Islamic, Sudanese schoolchildren at that, named a teddy bear Muhammad, the Sudanese came un-fucking-glued.
So congratulations Sudan, and a particular ‘fuck you’ to the nerve of the apparently all-important clerics that want the ‘full measure of the law applied’, you have earned yourself my award for dumbshit of the week! Congratulations again you miserable dogs, now having done something universally fucking stupid with your time and money, why don’t you focus on more important problems in the world, something that might actually make the world a better place to live. You absolute shitbirds.
