KFC Botches Order - Customer Calls Police

Image
In the U.S. city of Waukesha , a woman called 911 after Kentucky Fried flubbed her order . After stating the order was wrong, the dispatcher went all hardcore dramatic and threw the food on the ground in front of the customer. A supervisor came over with a new sandwich at which point a refund was asked for. The refund was refused, the law was informed. To be fair to the woman, the employee who delivered the sandwich she ordered sounds like a little punk but you don't tie up the emergency lines with this sort of hoo-hah. Seriously.

The Divine Image.

Image
taken from Songs of Innocence (1789) by  William Blake To Mercy Pity Peace and Love. All pray in their distress: And to these virtues of delight Return their thankfulness. For Mercy Pity Peace and Love, Is God our father dear: And Mercy Pity Peace and Love, Is Man his child and care. For Mercy has a human heart Pity, a human face: And Love, the human form divine, And Peace, the human dress. Then every man of every clime, That prays in his distress, Prays to the human form divine Love Mercy Pity Peace, And all must love the human form. In heathen, turk or jew, Where Mércy, Love & Pity dwell, There God is dwelling too.

It's Clichéd to Be Cynical at Christmas

Father Christmas, where you been? Avoiding me again this year, I see I left him day old warm flat beer Then hijacked his sleigh and reindeer There are no ifs, there are no buts Father Christmas hates my guts

Christmas Hating "Christians"

Image
Some miserable bastard or possibly bastards are  slipping notes into toys saying Father Christmas is a myth in order to shatter children's perception of the yuletide season. Complete zealots, they instruct children about the fakery of Santa and to fall to their knees to beg forgiveness from Jesus. Jesus himself probably would have  berated these killjoys. These people aren't Christians. They are in fact Cretins.
