The hurricane barely killed a dozen people. Of course the hurricane was soooo overrated, unless you were one of the unlucky dozen. Or, maybe you were one of those losers who fell victim to flash flooding and now find your homes under 5 feet of water.
Oh, and the media, OMGLMAO! The Geraldo Rivera’s of the world were so busy warning people that the storm would be dangerous, for no good reason. After all, tough men can fight mother nature with their own hands. When the flood waters threaten the homes of said tough guys, they throw cigars and beer cans at it and the water recedes.
I know several people whose homes have been rendered uninhabitable. Trees slammed through the living rooms and water flooded to the top of their televisions. But who cares right? The media should be focused on Libya or the corrupt nature of Obama, instead of this bullshit hurricane Irene.
In closing, as I sift through my Twitter and/or Facebook streams, I am so pleased to know there are so many brave men out there, unbending to the will of mother nature. These men are monuments to humanity and should be lauded for their bravery, albeit from their very dry and low end computer swivel chairs. Nevertheless, “The Fly” tips his top hat to you, brave man from the internet, and thanks you for being the backbone of this milquetoast society.
