What Did You Expect?
or When You Play With Fire...
Feeling sorry for all of the people in New Orleans? Not me.
What bunch of whiney morons. "Oh no, our city is flooding, save us!" You know, your city wouldn't have flooded nearly so badly if you'd built it somewhere else, say, above sea level. I'd love to take a multi-million dollar yacht and boat around the "streets" of the city, blaring DMB's "Don't Drink the Water" at the people huddled on the rooftops.
Unfortunately, we the taxpayers are going to be paying for every idiot who decided to live at the bottom of the empty pool that was New Orleans. Money for troops, money for buildings, money for food, money for medicine - you can bet that more people have never been fined for the stupidity of others than now. I've never seen people more surprised to see water in a pool in my life. I'd actually give money to Live 8 before I'd voluntarily give money to help those people, yet it's going to be squeezed out of me anyways.
For that, I have to give the citizens of New Orleans, as a collective, the Dumbass of the Year award.
What do you win, you ask? How about an ice cold cup of saltwater? Mmmmm. Tasty.
