God was making the line at the Social Security office move quickly today.
Waiting with the wife at the Social Security office today, a Man was telling another that he prayed to god the line would keep moving quickly. I just don't understand the level of stupidity one must have to pray so your number would get called quickly and to believe that it was a higher powers doing that made it happen. I posted this here on this forum because any where else I would be called a smarmy jerk for mentioning the level of stupidity it would take to pray for the line to move quicker.

1. Clearly, God's an under-achiever
Otherwise, praying guy wouldn't need to be at the fucking Social Security office.

4. Did he not realize that
his suffering in line was a lesson from God intended to draw him closer to righteousness?

Nothing happens without purpose and he must never question or doubt the Lord's plan.

6. That explains a lot
The reason so many people die of starvation, natural disasters, plane crashes, child abuse, drive-by shootings and the like is because god is so busy helping make the line at the SS office move faster. If the selfish SOBs waiting in line would just be more patient god could attend to more important matters.

7. God helped the Pittsburgh Penguins win.
One of my friends actually encouraged her daughter to pray a prayer of thanks for god helping them win. Supposedly he was conferring with their deceased family member who was a huge Pens fan. The stupidity of it all!

11. Well than apparently the nonexistent man in the sky..
Edited on Wed Jun-17-09 05:47 AM by and-justice-for-all
was more concerned about that man getting in and out of that hell hole, the Social Security office, and not the millions of people who do not have anything to eat.

That is a one fake dude with some fucked up priorities.
