Poop Ship Destroyer

Here is the current headline article on CNN 

"Cruise ship still gross, passengers say, but it's finally moving"

The start of the article:  

"(CNN) -- Ewwwww. 
That about sums up how people are describing conditions aboard the Carnival Triumph Tuesday as tug boats slowly dragged the stricken cruise ship toward Alabama -- and freedom for its 3,143 passengers. Some passengers report sewage sloshing around in hallways, flooded rooms and trouble getting enough to eat after a fire in the ship's engine room Sunday left it drifting in the Gulf of Mexico. Passengers have dragged their mattresses onto the ship's open deck to stay cool and get away from the nasty smells inside..."

Now, this should ripe with good stuff...


and it is... but wait, could it be that someone is upset with this toilet humor...




 Oh Ashley, I'm not sure that appealing to everyone will get you the response that you are looking for. Let's see...




Yeah, that seems about right. Wait, someone actually is going to give some constructive feedback that can aid Ashley and her mom.

Guess the Article

This post labeled "Guess the Article" will be a re-occurring topic within the blog. The idea here is we will supply some user comments and you need to guess what the article is about. Sounds easy, yes? Well, here is the first one...


The above comments come from an article on CNN today. A couple of unique things to recognize here:

1.) Apparently, regardless of what you were taught in school... name calling is an appropriate way to get "ya" point across.

2.) Afghanistan is located in China.

3.) User "SickOfTheStupid" is an expert on the rare earth minerals and your cell phone can double as a salt-lick, in case you are ever attacked by angry, hungry deer!

Be back tomorrow with the name of the Article...

Welcome to The Stoup

Have you every watched the E! TV Series - The Soup? If not, please do... It is a weekly series that "focuses on recaps of various pop culture and television show moments of the week" according to Wikipedia. In reality, a bunch of people are employed to watch TV, find <<insert adjectives>> clips and let  Joel McHale rip them apart. The show really is great... Go watch it.

Following in this tradition, this blog will focus on recapping user comments, tweets and other message (via social media) that are found on the internets. In the same vein, we will do our best to provide some sarcasm, but I am guessing that the comments alone will win out...

What's the best part about the Internet? No, not porn. Try again. One word.

Anonymity.

You think that people say some completely absurd things on TV? Well, with the ability to be almost completely anonymous, the internet truly does bring out the best of the best.
