i've affectionately hid like 17 fb "friends", i just can't handle all the stupid. One clever one: "Osama Bin Laden must have been using an iPhone". Got any noteworthy statuses you'd like to share??

Ridin dirty
Re: FB Status re: bin laden
My brother just posted this:
Roy Oswalt= leaves the Phillies for 5 days.
Osama Bin Laden= Dead.
Coincidence? I don't think so.
I am about to hide my uncle. I am not sure how he gets any work done with all of his FBing!
It was a tweet, but I loved:
"Man, I sure hope Osama was killed by a gay soldier!"
Also, along the lines of the Roy Oswalt stuff, which was all funny, I give you this:

Also, please read the google user reviews of Osama's hideout!

My favorite:
Located in cozy, quiet neighborhood. Interrupted only occasionally by machine gun fire. Lacking in ameneties, but an up and coming area. Handyman special. One satellite phone available with smoking bullet hole for comms back home. CIA helicoptors offering complimentary air lift service for corpses. Great property to get away from it all. Must See!
From Twitter:
Donald Glover (Troy on Community): "Best part of twitter when things like this happen are people who don't know it happened yet and tweet "so crazy at the club right now"***.
From FB:
"Goodbye Saudi Arabia's rose... your candle burned out long before your legend ever did..."
"Jack Bauer would be proud"
and:
"Meet me at Frankford and Cottman" (there were seriously people there last night from what I gathered via fb, ridiculous)
I thought this was hilarious, slightly modified for names:
"This morning I texted FI: "Morning update: I'm admitting I like the song S&M by Rihanna and Britney, I had a dream that I was pet sitting Jenny's jellyfish tank, but she also had a slug tank and the slugs got out, and a dream that we got sued because my son beat up a 21 year old woman."
FI responded: "Bin Laden's dead."
Oh."
From a former coworkers FB:
bin Douchbag's body should be placed in a dress, with the skirt hiked up exposing his cut of schlong and his face should be made up like Tammy Faye Baker and it should be enclosed in a glass box and placed at Ground Zero in perpetuity.
and in response to someone mentioning the virgins waiting for Bin Laden in heaven:
I hope they're hermaphrodites with huge schlongs with razor blades sticking out the sides.
I think ooodsie wins!
Here is someone's status from my FB:
I bet Toby Keith has been running around his yard with an American flag since last night!
Somali pirates, Gaddafi's son, now bin Laden - do NOT f*ck with Obama, he's Gangsta!!
"If Osama bin Laden has horcruxes, we are screwed."
"1. ?B?i?n? ?L?a?d?e?n? 2. Waldo 3. Carmen Sandiego"
My favorite was on twitter too
This was actually my favorite status:
?I will mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.? - Martin Luther King Jr.
I 100% get why we needed to kill Bin Laden but I still don't think killing a persone should be celebrated and made fun of the way it is no matter who it was. All the celebrating and people showing pictures of him dead on FB makes me feel kind of sick because I feel like we look no better than they do when they kill one of our people and parade around the streets celebrating.
Everyone on my feed was C&P-ing the MLK quote. Nice sentiment, except the MLK quote is not real. http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2011/05/out-of-osamas-death-a-fake-quotation-is-born/238220/
That's interesting. When I first read it I thought the quote did sound a little too perfect for this given situation but I really didn't think twice about it to look it up. Whomever wrote it should have just taken credit because it really is a nice sentiment.
