I think we all need to take a second and thank Ingrid for her consistent wackyness. She’s been a source of amusement for several years now. I even find myself trying to view the world through Ingrid’s eyes. And quite frankly, its rather exhausting. Every day must be one trauma after the other. Go to the mall, and you’re senses are assaulted by rock and roll music played through the sound systems. Listen…there’s a Beatles song…those evil “moptops that spoiled everything”. I must cover my ears. Look over there, in that store window…a mannequin in a bathing suit. More Lustful fleshly carnality. Quick, cover the kid’s eyes. And those teenagers…why aren’t they wearing nice tastefull granny gowns, or shapeless jumpers that cover them from neck to ankle. Oh the immodesty of it all. Don’t even think about going in that book store, I can see the magazine covers from here. And there’s that terrible Merlin Muffler repair shop down the street. As everone knows, magicians and the devil go hand in hand with sorcery, Black Magic and witchcraft. I’m not letting Satan anywhere near my minivan! And he looks so innocent on the logo. But who knows what evil lurks under that pointed hat. It looks like something out of Harry Potter, but don’t even get me started on that.

A church that brings people together for good, healthy fellowship, and a toast to the New Year. In Ingrid’s wacky world of over the top hyperbole, it can never be just that. It has to become an event of such decadent proportions that it makes the Ten Commandments scene of Moses hurling the tablets into the revelers look like a quilting bee.

All you can really count on is that somebody, somewhere, is doing something Ingrid doesn’t approve of, and in some weird way, that makes life even more interesting.

Not everything is a stumbling block. Sometimes, all you have to do is step around it. Its not that difficult. You do have some control over the things you respond to, don’t you?

Anyway. I hope Ingrid stays slightly crazy. Her website and radio show would become very boring if she were to lose her very special form of intolerance.

OMDB – perhaps you missed it, but Tim apologized for the ‘jerkhole’ terminology.

As for “Cambellite”, I don’t know anyone who goes by that moniker, certainly nobody here…

The bit that Iâ€m sure hasnâ€™t escaped their notice on all this is all of my critiques of Ingrid canâ€™t be reviewed since sheâ€™s pulled down all of the articles I responded to. Was she a jerkhole? Does she have an idiotic hermeneutic? Well, we canâ€™t tell now.
Tim, you sure have mastered the fine art of the pot calling the kettle black. Then again, this is not surprising, considering that this sort of vitriolic and un-Christian rhetoric is coming from a Campbellite.

Julie,

I recall a FARK photoshop contest several years ago for fake state tourism advertising. The winning entry has a picture of Mount Rushmore along with a bright friendly banner saying:

VISIT NORTH DAKOTA*

At the bottom was this disclaimer:

“*Yes, we know Mt. Rushmore is in South Dakota, but work with us here, people!”

Comedy gold…

Chris,
Yeah, I thought about that. Is she a prurient poster now?

Yup I had “senoir math” also, but at my pervious school I had taken the other math classes in 8th grade, so I left me with extra time everyday. In fact I washed dishes after lunch because I had no class to take, I least i made 5.00 each day at school!

Can we eat some lutefisk also!! UmmUmm;)

Yeah but its fun, and probably somewhat productive.

Anything other than talking about Ingrid is probably more productive… OOOOOOOOO!

*an attempt to put it back on track*

Did anyone else notice that Ingrid, who uses the word “whore” in this post, also raked Driscoll over the coals about using the same word?

Winnipeg — drove me crazy; didn’t really number their streets. But they have a lot of used book stores.

Lefse — a tasty potato-based Norwegian food, despite me being one of eight people in the state of North Dakota without a bit of Norwegian in me.

Math — had a class of 16, had three years algebra, geometry, and pre-calculs “senior math”; your school ripped you off.
