Thou Shalt Not Do Stuff That Annoys Me: The Daily Nooner (EST)!

La Pequeña Amy Winehouse

In case you haven’t heard, the Catholic Church has announced that some new sins have been added to the list. No joke. If you are a practicing Catholic, you now have seven additional “social sins” to worry about: everything from polluting the environment to using birth control to “excessive wealth” now constitutes a “social sin” and will totally make you go to hell forever.

What does this mean to you? Probably not a whole lot (unless you were about to throw a used condom off the side of your yacht), but I think there are a few more that need to be tacked onto the list:

  • Eating fast food lunch items before 11:00 am
  • Driving on the shoulder of the highway if you’re not in a life-or-death situation
  • Using a personal check to pay for something in public (sending one by mail is still ok)
  • Operating a cash-only business without having an ATM
  • Asking someone “whatcha readin?” when they are clearly reading SOMETHING
  • Casting a vote for an American Idol contestant without ironic intent
  • Dancing on YouTube if you’re a Chilean tranny dwarf dressed up as Amy Winehouse
  • I’m sure there are plenty more that I’m forgetting… anyone have any ideas?

      damn you, catholic church! what’s that sizzling sou- [lightning hits]

      Thank you for the “Whatcha readin?” add. I read during my breaks at work…and whenever else I can…and if I have to answer that question one more God damned time, I’m going to rip someone’s throat out with my teeth. I’ll be in the middle of a deep explanation of politics and religion 20,000+ years from now (which is still meaningful now), when I hear that question. Everything goes out the window, and I’m dragged kicking and screaming back to work. It takes me a moment to figure out what the question was, and because lifting the book so the person can read the title is never good enough, I usually launch into a ten-minute spiel about how the main character has been dumped onto a new planet because of an old family feud, his father gets killed in the ensuing battle, he and his mother run into the desert where they are saved by the locals, the protagonist becomes their leader due to his political and religious savvy and eventually gets to take back the planet and then the universe and unleash his maniacal followers in a jihad. It’s okay, though, because the race needed to mix its genes. Things were growing stagnant. By this time, the person has rolled his or her eyes and walked away. I follow them, just to prove the point that you shouldn’t bug someone when they’re reading! I think it’s safe to say I’m not the popular one at my job.

      what i always think is in 1000 years people will think this was the actual words god said. think about that next time you read your bible.

    8. kate Says:

      birth control? They’ve been after that one for years.

      But this list is rich, coming from these guys…a bunch of cloistered, celibate old men living in a gem-encrusted, gilded palace in the middle of an industrialized nation. Hah.

    9. benihana Says:

      And the media ACTUALLY vilifying the Catholic church is a ’sin’ too obviously since they are either too full of shit,too much of a racist hypocrite,or too much of a bunch of pussies I say all of the above.

    10. Andy Says:

      Right, Dave, because someone concerned with violating the church’s view on condoms has no problem violating the church’s view on fornication, right?

      The “new seven sins” are no such thing. It’s just one guy’s opinion, and he lives in Vatican City. Therefore, the media thinks he’s official.

    11. Dave Says:

      How about contributing to the worldwide AIDS problem by portraying condoms as a terrible affront to God?

    12. glendoor42 Says:

      @Amy I agreee with you that crocs are fucking stupid looking , they look like something the
      NVA would have made out of old tires.

      Now an Escalade, that’s just cool and if I’m a pretentious fuck for wanting one, so be it.
      I’ve been called worse.

    13. glendoor42 Says:

      That’s what I thought kingmonkey +1. I also don’t buy that it’s cheaper to move to the beach for the winter, than to pay our heating bill bullshit.

      I think it’s just some vast Casnadian money laundering scheme to trade in that funny looking money with beavers, moose and that old lady on it, for money with eagles, monuments and dead white guys on it.

      I’ve noticed this year, however, that you Casnadian have held on to the funny looking money this year for some reason.

    14. kingmonkey +1 Says:

      I know spamming your mom is a sin; I just can’t help it. She’s such a minx!

    15. HelenWaite Says:

      Spamming the comment sections of entertainment blogs.

    16. Amy Says:

      Driving an escalade should count as a sin. Pretentious fucks.

      Also, wearing/selling/allowing ownership of crocs. They make you look like a douche.

    17. kingmonkey +1 Says:

      You got us, glendoor42. It’s to hide our cloven feet.

      ohhh hahah yeah i see it now. thanks pschoscquirrel.

    22. glendoor42 Says:

      Well kingmonkey+1 most of the Casnadians I see are of the snowbird variety.(I live now and grew up about an hour from the lovely Redneck Riviera) They still wear their socks and sandals down here.

      hey Juggadore, they have a tag for Hannah Montana it’s just under “That Bitch Who Plays Hannah Montana”

    25. kingmonkey +1 Says:

      It’s too cold to expose your bare skin in Casnadia, glenmoor42.

    26. Mike S. Says:

      Putting a vanity plate on an expensive car that brags about how expensive the car is. Talk about grounds for justifiable vehicular homicide.

    27. glendoor42 Says:

      Yes, and so what is the rest of Canada’s excuse?

    28. kingmonkey +1 Says:

      I only wear socks with sandals to cover the horrible lesions and buboes on my calves.

      Too much information?

    29. Chiemi Maloy Says:

      Actually, Jedoc, it’s really easy to find good bud in Salt Lake City. Obviously you don’t know anyone who lives here. There are worse places to be and worse punishments for drug trafficers. Like being butt-raped in prison. Or having to sit through a Hanna Montana concert in SLC. That would be painful.

    30. AngryHank Says:

      The Vatican has not changed the list of Mortal Sins. Gianfranco Girotti was being interviewed and started talking out of his holy butt. He is only the bishop in charge of the Apostolic Penitentiary. He has no real authority and can not change the list put out in the 6th century by Pope Gregory the Great.
      Once again in the quest to destroy all religions that are not Muslim they got it wrong. Fear not boys and girls you are still only guilty of envy, gluttony, greed, lust, wrath and pride.

    31. gemlink Says:

      Well, excessive wealth being a sin now makes the Vatican the most egregious sinner in history… oh sorry, we already knew that.

    32. glendoor42 Says:

      Yes, but that is gonna fuck kingmonkey+1 because I have only seen Casnadian do that.

    33. Joobles Says:

      Can we add wearing socks with sandals to the new sins?

    34. Jeremy D Says:

      How about believing in a religion that is corrupt as fuck? That should be on there.

    35. Tommy P Says:

      Thou shall not watch entertainment news shows where they inform you who’s beautiful. Especially really wierd or ugly looking people.

    36. Professor THE Guy Says:

      Haha. SRHCFC, that was the first thought I had when I saw the new list.

      Here’s what I think should be a sin: applying centuries old doctrine to modern times.

      That’s right I said it. Religion should be a sin.

    37. kingmonkey +1 Says:

      Sieg, “miss-spelling is a sin?”

      Not Tori Spelling! Dammit, I bet Hannah Montana’s behind this somehow!

    38. SRHCFC Says:

      * Environmental pollution
      * Genetic manipulation
      * Accumulating excessive wealth
      * Inflicting poverty
      * Drug trafficking and consumption
      * Morally debatable experiments
      * Violation of fundamental rights of human nature

      The new version of Se7en is going to suck…

    39. Ellie Says:

      Thou shalt not be jealous of Gladstone’s children…
      because you’d have to be fucking batshit insane and would pose an immanent threat to society.

    40. glendoor42 Says:

      No.

    41. Sonic PR Department Says:

      Those new cinna-snacks at Sonic should be a sin, they’re so sinfully delicious. Am I right? Yeah?

    42. Sieg Says:

      look at your mom’s boobs is a sin too
      miss-spelling is a sin
      cough tree times is a sin and a call for the anti-christ
      ate onion is a sin
      the word sin is sinful

      holy shit! (that is my new favorited word)
      holy shit is FUCKING HOLY!!

    43. Nadia Says:

      This blue format is scary. I’m afraid of change.

    44. Nadia Says:

      That Amy Winehouse little person was just too precious when she decided to fuck air. I would enjoy it so much more if somehow an expensive hat was incorporated in her routine. Maybe she could freakily crawl to the expensive hat, put it on, and then swing left to right with the rhythm of the music. I really need to choreograph the next one. It would be fierce.

    45. glendoor42 Says:

      Hey Wolinsky, apparently your cross dressing migdet buddy is now posing as a gnome wearing a mini black colored klansmans outfit and scaring teenagers in South America. Saw a video of it on you tube. They are calling it the killer gnome of Titicaca.

    46. juggadore Says:

      did anyone else notice that there was no “Hannah Montana” tag on the right?

    47. juggadore Says:

      woah. who is that chick in that video??

      about the drug abuse sin, what makes something drug abuse? is excessive caffiene a drug? how bout getting drunk one night every week during karaoke at the harvest moon? how bout smoking a doobie every 2 weeks while listening to christian music?

      what im trying to say is that “drug abuse” is based on man-made laws. smoking a joint is drug abuse where having 2 long island ice teas and a shot of jager before singing Superfreak is not. if alcohol was illegal, then they would both be considered drug abuse.

      fill me in popester. what is god’s definition of drug abuse?

    48. BloodyPopsicle Says:

      Is it a sin if you watch one of Hannah Montana’s annoying videos and think “I’d still hit it”? What if you promise to give her absolutely no sexual gratification and she cries for hours after? And you don’t return her calls? And maybe give her an STD for good measure?

    49. alirio Says:

      “Gladstone stop being so hard on yourself! I think you are funny!”

      That’s because you’re a square, Peace bitch!!

      *drives away in an escalade*

    50. lbh Says:

      Also… P.P. (pet peave): Loud, lip-smacking, molar-grinding EATING during a phone conversation. uggg! hate it, hate it, hate it.

      It’s way more annoying and disrespectful than holding up the line at the check-out by writing a check.

      (I’m a telephone operator BTW)

    51. lbh Says:

      I read a bit about this in the paper today. The thing that stood out most, for me anyway, is that diddling alter boys or covering up for the priests who diddled alter boys was no where on this list.

      Gladstone did an Amy Winehouse impression but didn’t dance. Does this mean he’s only going to purgatory?

      @Jedoc: I don’t play Afterlife but just the same…well said.

      @Apoc: Hey, welcome back. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you on this site. What gives?

    52. squaresquare Says:

      Gladstone stop being so hard on yourself! I think you are funny!

    53. Commander Ross Says:

      Please make it a sin for mush-headed morons to so zealously defend reality tv singers.

      When someone rightly insults their talent/morals/staying power it’s not an invite to put down that person just because they ‘represent’ our country. If they really did represent our country, I’d probably just throw myself into a giant magi-mix right now.

      Oh, and if you do adore these special talented singers so much, just wait 5 years when you can go down to your local McDonalds and like, totally meet them in person! Who knows, mention their godawful career and they might just give you a free upgrade to a large on your value meal.

    54. Vimmy Says:

      It is from here on a sin to leave man titties uncovered in public. Seriously, this is allowed while female titties aren’t?

    55. Sieg Says:

      the pope and hannah montana are lovers

      HOLY SHIT!!

    56. Apoc Says:

      Uh, how about the most obvious one?

      Thou Shalt Not Be Hannah Montana

      and its corollary…

      Thou Shalt Neither Like Nor Encourage Hannah Montana

      What else do we really need to add to the list? And by the way, I really think the Church ought to go back to the old days of punishing sinners with raining fire and angels wielding flaming swords. But I suppose that’s mainly because I’d like to see Hannah Montana get ruined by an angel with a flaming sword.

    57. Jedoc Says:

      Good news, everyone. Since we can’t trust Lucasarts to do anything right these days, I have compiled a list of the top-tier fate structures for Afterlife 2. Ironically, the third punishment is probably where George Lucas is going to end up. Money grubbing little troll.

      Polluting: Malebolge in the Balance. The damned are trapped in a vast boiling lake of toxic waste, radioactive sludge, that yellowish slime out of vienna sausage cans, and good old fashioned raw sewage, while a gigantic, bloated Al Gore harangues them from the shore.

      Genetic Engineering: Jurassic Park. Nothing says “it’s not nice to fool mother nature” like an eternity as the prey of Spielbergian velociraptors. Clever girl.

      Posessing Obscene Riches: An Honest Day’s Work. Anyone who ever claimed to be “richer than God” in life spends the afterlife in the service of the lowest of the low. Mealtimes are spent working at an overcrowded and ill-maintained soup kitchen where every day is Thanksgiving. A solid six-hour shift is spent at the Mint shoveling retired currency into the incinerator. And all the time in between is spent going door-to-door drumming up support for the Democratic party.

      Taking Drugs: Salt Lake City. That’s about it. Druggies are condemned to an eternity in an exact working replica of Salt Lake City. If you’ve ever tried to score pot in Utah, you should be trembling uncontrollably by now.

      Abortion: Coathanger Junction. Not much needs to be added here, except to point out that the endlessly repeating soundtrack is Ben Folds Five – Brick.

      Pedophilia: A Seat Over There. The damned spend an eternity in a moderately uncomfortable chair being talked down to by Chris Hanson while everyone they knew and admired parades past a large window to register their shame and disgust. Also, there are—fuck, I dunno—flaming rabid bats all over the place.

      Causing Social Injustice: You Bastards Are Gonna Get It. All the lawyers in Hell couldn’t really come up with a clear definition for this garbled mess of a sin. The damned are forced to sit through an endless committee meeting where boring and pedantic demons slowly try to come up with a proper punishment. There are cookies and punch clearly visible, but as they are meant to be served at the end of the meeting, the damned know that they will never have any. Every once in a while, just to be dicks, a demon will make a motion to adjourn. Just as the burgeoning hope rises in the battered consciousness of the damned, a second demon will bring up a new order of business. After several hundred years of this, the only possible emotion remaining is a terrible envy for those damned souls who are stewing in molten plutonium and shit.

    58. Gladstone Says:

      Inserting nonsensical Norbit clips into Joss Stone commercials in a failed attempt at humor.

    59. Pharaoh Mustafa Says:

      God damn, that video made me tremble more than Amy Winehouse after freebasing enriched uranium…

    60. BingoThreat Says:

      Making videos of Amy Winehouse impersonators is def grounds to be sent to Hell… and this video will probably be playing there for all of eternity for everyones Hellish enjoyment.

    61. Jedoc Says:

      Two blog entries on the same topic? Well, looks like there’s only one way to settle this. We’ll need an enclosed arena, two knives, and a very short rope.

      Also, Lucasarts pretty much has to come out with another Afterlife game to reflect the updated list. The new punishments for abortion and genetic engineering should be awesome.

    62. kingmonkey +1 Says:

      Or how about people who hit all the buttons in an elevator when they get out?

    63. Mobbarelli Says:

      Social Sin…

      Not returning your shopping cart to the “cart corral”, thereby allowing it to get caught by the wind and scrape my car while I’m grocery shopping!

    64. Johnny Vigor Says:

      These new fangled sins just don’t have the ‘zest’ the old ones have. I mean, compare “excessive wealth” to “GLUTTONY,” or “PRIDE.”

      Can’t be done. Catholicism is officially uncool now.

    65. kingmonkey +1 Says:

      I thought Arny Whinehouse was taller…

      So, the Vatican has declared excessive wealth a social sin? Why is my irony gland swelling up like that? Ouch. Say, how do they determine exactly what ‘excessive’ is?
