In a recent move by parliment, the ban on baby dropping which has been in effect since late 2001, was repealed yesterday in a unamimous vote.

Villagers place bets on which baby's will live through the ordeal. This tradition goes back centuries, to 1974 when gambling became legal in India. Villigers like Mupok think this will boost tourism in the area, he sees that as a good thing. "When people come from China, I sell them goat meat for they watch the babies fall." a soft spoken Mupok points out. "When they make us stop dropping the babies, I sold no goat meat.". Baby dropping is still against the law in China, but may change with pressure from the international community.

It's tradition. It's their civilization. It's their bag, not mine, and I intend to enjoy it.

All I could tell was that they dropped the babies a few stories, somehow for their health. Sounds a little counter efficient to me, but I'm not enlightened chinese monk, and it's not like I like babies anyways.

This post makes no sense. Is it a joke? This practice is isolated to a single shrine in India, there is no betting and it is claimed that no baby has ever been injured. Where does china, goat meat and dead pools come into this?

I'd place bets and grab a curry-dog from one of the vendors. I hear they have a seventh inning baby stretch.
For good luck of course.

I can't believe you are so dumb that you had to stop and wonder if I really do work for the BBC and this is all true. Worse yet, you think your smart because you got all synical about it and tried to point me out for the fraud I am.
Good work dick head!

I didn't get cynical, I saw a legit link to CNN then BBC World News written into the footer which I thought you were citing from. I never thought you worked for the BBC. I was asking a question and the media has reported stranger things based on real events.
It's not my fault you're not funny or amusing and I couldn't tell you were joking.
Oh, and fuck you too douche bag.

Penaud also had advertisements in his tagline. Ads for COMMERCIAL sites that are in direct competition with I-Mockery's paid placements. I think we should ban him, I love pointing out people who should be banned.

Yes. I'm a rebel.
You show me the commercial ads I'm in direct competition with here on i-mockery and I would be more than happy to ignore you and kick you square in the throat. You really rub me the wrong way.
If a mod had an issue, I'm sure they would have brought it up in my time here and I would still be happy to conform to any rule or regulation. But, see, I'm usually pretty polite around these parts, contribute where I can and participate when able.
You, on the other hand, apparently joined in '03 and I haven't a clue who you are. Other than the fact that you are a royal asshole, I know nothing about you. I'm sure you've been around, you just never say anything interesting.
My site isn't commercial, by the way. The Zombie Portraits one is just plain cool and links back to both i-mockery and zombiewalk.com. Furthermore, the artist's other site zombiedaily.com also links back to zombiewalk.com. Dumbass.
Vet or not, you are one stupid son-of-a-bitch and I love pointing out people who really should be removed from the gene pool.

So you cross-dress?

http://www.zombieportraits.com/
Zombie paraphenilia can probably be found on this site and it's advertising partners. Plus it is SEVERELY LAME to have a FUCKING ADVERTISEMENT in your FUCKING TAGLINE
and that human marvel shit is just another shock value site devoted to exploiting people with deformities, many of which look like "burns" from gamma radiation. Tell me something, do you have a problem with Hiroshima surviors? Evil Robot thinks you do.
and I would be more than happy to ignore you and kick you square in the throat.
No you won't, as am American, I am a gun owner. Bitch.
You really rub me the wrong way.
Oh baby, you don't like it when I call you bitch do you? DO YOU? how about I rub you this way, oh yes oh yeah oh GOD YES!!!!
If a mod had an issue, I'm sure they would have brought it up in my time here
Mods are to lazy for confrontation, they just ban without warning and never have to deal with it again.
and I would still be happy to conform to any rule or regulation.
I bet you would, your an obedient little bitch aren't you?
But, see, I'm usually pretty polite around these parts,
Howdy ya'll! I'm know as the pretty and polite cowboy round these parts!
contribute where I can and participate when able.
You mean like shitting all over threads like this one? Or helping me break you for all to see?
You, on the other hand, apparently joined in '03 and I haven't a clue who you are.
Actaully, I joined in 2001. They changed software for the boards in 2003. But that means nothing, I'm not the one on trail here, you are.
Other than the fact that you are a royal asshole, I know nothing about you.
Well, I'm 6'1", enjoy long walks on the beach, and enjoy arguing with people on the internet.
I'm sure you've been around, you just never say anything interesting.
Thats not true! What I do here is post some incredibly harsh remarks to people who probably don't deserve it (you do, though) who then get defensive and snippy. My goal here is to get you so worked up that you stay angry after walking away from the computer, for at least ten minutes.
My site isn't commercial, by the way. The Zombie Portraits one is just plain cool and links back to both i-mockery and zombiewalk.com. Furthermore, the artist's other site zombiedaily.com also links back to zombiewalk.com. Dumbass.
zombie zombie zombie zombie zombie zombie zombie zombie what the fuck is with you and zombies?
Furthermore, the artist's other site zombiedaily.com also links back to zombiewalk.com. Dumbass.
Let me show everybody what they can get for thier money on this site:

$160 dollars for a hack artist to drop acid and puke that out.
Vet or not, you are one stupid son-of-a-bitch and I love pointing out people who really should be removed from the gene pool.
What are you saying? You would like to eliminate other peoples DNA so everybody will be white like you?
