"I've never seen such a display of intolerance, bigotry and hatred."

[A'isha]

The above was tweeted by Fox News' Todd Starnes. What was the terrible, horrific incident which sparked his outrage:

A) Spray painting a swastika on a synagogue

B) Burning a cross on an African-American family's lawn

C) A Buddhist high school student being told that he should just convert to Christianity if he wants to stop being harassed at school

D) 34 couples, both gay and straight, getting married during a musical performance by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis during the Grammys last night

Answer:

"D", of course.

Isn't getting married synonymous with hatred? And getting married en masse? That's downright hostile.

I don't think there's a smiley to properly capture my bafflement at his stupidity. I'm glad I don't know who he is. My life is better without that knowledge

And social media buffoons are saying it was 33 gay couples, and since the 33rd degree Mason are all Illuminati...

I know the old people in my family likely cringed this morning when a 30 second clip of this was shown during their news. Some of them will reason past the cringe, others won't.

OT/I've never really liked rap much and now I have a bit of a man-crush on Macklemore. The more I listen to his music the more I like it. My kids think its hilarious that I am drawn into modern music by the lyrics and not the beats. As James brown would say "they don't want music, they just want the boom, boom, boom."

I agree. That song was a genocide on my eardrums.

Maybe he was tweeting the reaction in the FOX News Room.

No? No.

Given how common divorce is, you may be on to something there.

I was going to go there, but I figured I'd just toss out that softball for someone else to crush.

Like, why should only straight people be miserable?

 

[Monketi Ghost]

Raise your hands, who had to guess?

 

[TragicMonkey]

Did he confuse a mirror for the TV again?

 

[Gawdzilla Sama]

And people wonder why the GOP/Fox News are going down the drain.

 

[Monketi Ghost]

I know too many that are devoted watchers.

 

[BStrong]

If that's the worse thing he's seen, he needs to get out more often.

 

[Polaris]

And social media buffoons are saying it was 33 gay couples, and since the 33rd degree Mason are all Illuminati...

And they all love Rolling Rock.

Ftfy, nitpick

Most of my relatives watch the talking heads. The actual news bores them, but they have learned to parrot Hannity, et al. I love that because they have about one molecule of depth and I can frustrate the **** out of them by asking them to expand on a topic.

Obviously he mistweeted. He meant to tweet:
