You do know “The Holy land” was not inhabited by Muslims 1st. Not sure where this impression that Muslims were just innocents being invaded by evil Europeans comes from, but learn your history.

Can’t wait to see what status “Religion of Peace” puts up. That is, if the author is honest and treats the (historical) atrocities committed by both Abrahamic religions the same way, i.e. equal opportunity offender, a la the writer of Jesus and Mo. And has balls. <— Most important
But I won't be holding my breath, since we all know which religion is an easy target for jokes.

The Chernobyl accident was IN NO WAY a routine test of the reactor. They shut off the safeties and were essentially trying to overclock it, to simplify the terms. Plus, the technology they had then sucked compared to ours at that time, and even more so compared to present safety tech.
Good job propagating the myth that nuclear power is dangerous, tho.

You’re right, “The Holy land” was not inhabited by Muslims 1st . but he is talking about the crusade and that was when the land was sacred to Muslims.
Posted by Juice on September 2nd, 2010 at 10:58 pm
Very good. But man you need to brush up on your history. Please point to the place in history where Richard I ever re-conquered Jerusalem. It was taken by Saladin in 1187 and wasn’t recaptured by Christian forces until the British defeated Ottoman forces in 1917.

I.e. Mount vesuvius blowing up 1936 years ago (or whatever) but the reply by the Pompeiians was like 20 MINUTES ago, so kind of a delayed/anachronistic reaction, don’tcha think? LOL

Posted by allgoodboy on October 5th, 2010 at 10:00 am
yeah, pretty funny and, damn witty. I agree that it’s just a joke and historical inaccuracies should be taken lightly. Problem is, even tho most (hopefully) people know that; there were 2 tablets with ten commandments and not ten; that “the Holy Bible” does not state that the earth was made 6000yrs ago but only certain evangelists located mainly in the Southern US; that it’s the Muslims who kicked the Christians out of the Holy Land before anyone ever thought of a crusade, a lot of kids these days don’t get to reading as much as some of us did and they take this kinda kidding around fro granted. Food for thought: what do we do about it?
Posted by allgoodboy on October 5th, 2010 at 10:04 am
Goes without saying that this whole idea is genius tho!!
I pissed myself laughing with the first edition!
Posted by sma on October 5th, 2010 at 2:41 pm
I hadn’t seen the first one, but these are still pretty funny. Except for the Pearl Harbor one; you don’t joke about that. That will NEVER be funny.
Also I think the people who are like take-the-religious-stuff-as-a-joke kind of thing and lighten-up say that because they are not religious, so they don’t really get that it could in fact be offensive to some people.

“Native Muslims” in the Holy Land? Um, no. They were conquerors. Jews and Christians were the “natives.” The Crusades were an attempt to wrest it back.

Er … you mean after conquering a land by the sword, you’re considered “Native”?
It’s too bad ignorance on this is so widespread … or maybe just trying to avoid being killed by the “Natives”?
Posted by Grimmy on October 14th, 2010 at 5:06 pm
“seriously, these pages are LMAO funny and you guys want to debate politics and religion… lighten up!!”
Unfortunately, many get their “knowledge” of history from sources like this. It’d be tragic to let them continue in their cluelessness, since it leads to messed up world views.
“It’s funny because it’s true”; when it’s not true, it kinda breaks the “funny” part.

RFK: Jackaroo! Woot woot Partayyyy!
Bidness or is you takin’ the missus?
JFK: All Missus and no kisses on b b bidness…just Jackie no Smackie. First time visit stuff–gotta keep it legit the whole way. Buncha Catholic haters down there…juss In & Out quickie is all…parade or somethin I think.
RFK: Das allright. Dump got no hockey anyway. Plus these days they say you get shanked pickin’ up a rock in the Redbird.
JFK: Aiiiit–they got the whole police force comin’ out anyway. Juss in & out like I said.
What’s Redbird? we writin’ at the same time. Technology sux–can’t tell if somethin’s comin’ or goin.
RFK: No doubt dat!
Yo check it criss-cross again. I wrote No doubt that about the cops protectin Your Homesilk Catholic Bitch Ass. Hey Giancanna’s guy is there–Whiskey A Go Go it is I think. Jack somethingorother owns it. Emerald his last name, or Diamonds or Rubies–sumthin like dat. He could get you summadat sweeeet Texas Tang if you can ditch the missus for a coupla hours.
JFK: Naw cuzz thanks tho. Straight shot this time. No rocks OR Go Go, in & out’s all it is. But hey checkit, seriously cuzz, election’s comin’ up and my back’s killin’ me. This new cortisone stuff ain’t workin’ too well–givin’ me a fat frog’s neck too. We need to dog N pony up on that bill. Can you have somethin ready to go next week?
RFK: Nuthin’ cuzz, already covered it. Dang I can’t believe you passin up Texas Tang! U want me to call down on “urgent bizz” so you can bail out for a hitNrun at the Go Go?
JFK: Naw cuzz–just call Lyndon and Hubert and get those ass kissing newsboys over to the house–gotta get that civil rights bill signed Monday when I get back.

RFK: Yo man jus think. Between that and the the tax cuts and all that space bidness, Repub ass gonna get Pwn’d next Nov.
JFK: I hear dat. You him. Who? Da man.
Latro–love ya bro!
RFK: C U Monday. We’ll drive over and get you ourselves.
Oooh. Speaking of that – Yeesh man, have your girl call down to the plane and make sure those pilots made a vodka run.

You do realize that LBJ really didn’t want to sign the Civil Rights Bill and that it took Republicans to overcome a Democrat filibuster led by I believe Al Gore, Sr and everyone’s favorite Democrat/Grand Kleagle Senator Byrd.
Posted by Dalshanks on October 15th, 2010 at 6:34 pm
JFK today would be a Republican. He was a hawk, he loved America, and he understood that low taxes would make the economy roar (which it did). Democrats today have nothing in common with JFK, but instead are a bunch of blame-America-first, anti-capitalism, high-tax, wealth redistributionist lovers of the Israel-hating United Nations and the Islamofascist-apologetic European Left. Barack Obama et al are taking this country off the edge of a cliff. Coming Brown/Boxer wins in California spell out plainly that Americans do not yet understand the stark reality that our nation is bankrupt and business as usual is yesterday’s manna.
Posted by 0.0 on October 15th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
@ELO: Man, if you guys were still that party (for the most part) you’d have a lot more people interesting in voting for Lincoln’s party of abolition and progress. The fact remains that when the Dixiecrats jumped ship, you let their hateful a**es pollute YOUR party. It’s a shame. (It’s also why we should do away with this two-party nonsense altogether and try and get the religious contingents under some control; no more lobbies trying to bankroll our senators, be they Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist or the like.)
Speaking of which, for all of the people who were offended by a practically innocuous article, are you seriously trying to say that the people who bankroll the government and the media are less protected? Seriously? You folks need to wake up and stop sending money to those televangelists.

……..Mississippi would be more pissed at Lyndon Johnson signing the Civil Rights act…. they didn’t even pass the amendment that abolished slavery until 1995… sheesh.
Absolutely hilarious. Crying out loud material.. I soooooo hope there will be a part 3!!
You do know “The Holy land” was not inhabited by Muslims 1st. Not sure where this impression that Muslims were just innocents being invaded by evil Europeans comes from, but learn your history.
Hilarious! Please make a part three!!!!
Whoops, looks like you let a couple mythical events slip in there. :p
lmfao Awesome. Make more!XD
haha. here come the religious wing nuts. I knew someone would comment on the holy land. It’s a joke. chill
holy shit the hellen keller post was hilarious
Can’t wait to see what status “Religion of Peace” puts up. That is, if the author is honest and treats the (historical) atrocities committed by both Abrahamic religions the same way, i.e. equal opportunity offender, a la the writer of Jesus and Mo. And has balls. <— Most important
But I won't be holding my breath, since we all know which religion is an easy target for jokes.
The Chernobyl accident was IN NO WAY a routine test of the reactor. They shut off the safeties and were essentially trying to overclock it, to simplify the terms. Plus, the technology they had then sucked compared to ours at that time, and even more so compared to present safety tech.
Good job propagating the myth that nuclear power is dangerous, tho.
What about my statuses? I talk about jews a lot !
I don’t get it?
In replay to me:
You’re right, “The Holy land” was not inhabited by Muslims 1st . but he is talking about the crusade and that was when the land was sacred to Muslims.
Very good. But man you need to brush up on your history. Please point to the place in history where Richard I ever re-conquered Jerusalem. It was taken by Saladin in 1187 and wasn’t recaptured by Christian forces until the British defeated Ottoman forces in 1917.
seriously, these pages are LMAO funny and you guys want to debate politics and religion… lighten up!!
Hilarious…!!!
DAMMIT! WHAT PART OF HOLY DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND???
hahahahahaha
spot on, spot on.
I love these! I can’t wait to show this to my history teacher he is gonna love it! Keep um coming
This is hysterical! Lighten up guys, it’s a JOKE!
Lighten up folks, or you will have wasted my gift of life to you … and you REALLY don’t want to piss me off !!
(Even Hellen Keller laughed at that one. Trust me, I know.)
The individual posts are funny, but their being out of chronological order bugs the hell out of me.
Ok Hitler, what about:
MRS HITLER is thrilled to announce the arrival of little Adolf.
NOSTRADAMUS Whoa, world, you are f****d now!
…
HITLER changed his current location to Underground Bunker.
JAPAN hey dude, did you realise you’ve got your privacy settings set to ‘everyone’?
HITLER got a splitting headache. This looks like an aspirin. What the hell is that stuck in my gu…
Yes, part 3 ASAP, please.
I love the Exxon Valdez where BP comments about not wanting to be him. ROFLMAO….
BTW, on the ‘Catholic Church adds Burning and Wooden stakes to it’s interests’, there should be ‘its’ and NOT ‘it’s.’ The possessive, not the contraction for ‘it is.’ Sorry, grammar police. VERY funny tho!!
These actually aren’t that funny. Bummer.
I should not have read the comments… ruined the page. People doing grammar checks, arguing historical facts etc. It was a joke, something funny.. and seeing it was a take on Facebook, where we all know that everything is accurate, we should all lighten up and enjoy.
I am out!
(((POOF)))
I think improper grammar is sort of the point here guys. These are Facebook updates, which always have f-ed up grammar!
Simply hilarious. Literally almost peed myself laughing at work. Good job, guy!
lol this iz so funny and should not have ur so right this iz all a joke i mean really and no one cares about proper spelling or grammer and seriously part 3 please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved it, AND I enjoy the comments almost as much. I appreciate some of the historical annecdotes (how much of a dweeb am I?). The grammar police are always welcome, helps us slow the pace of intellectual degradation brought on by facebook, twitter, et.al, especially when it’s done in a pleasant way. Rock on!
bahahaha the hellen keller one is what got me lol
@Whoever; LOVED the use of et.al, just thought you should know.
The Exxon Valdez one had me chuckling, but the Helen Keller one made me lose it. More! And I still want a 9/11 one.
Actually, how about an NYC mosque one?
this is hilarious! there are def more that you could do
1. hitler/WW2
2. civil war
3. ussr (maybe a reference to the beatles songs)
4. martin luther (something like martin luther made a note called the 95 theses and tagged the church and the pope)
5. some sports references would be good too
Part 3!!!
religious freaks can’t even take a joke… this is freakin funny…. i want to see more…
these are kinda awesom i want the part 3!! do fb-status for:
-Hitler
-Napoleon
-Lenin
-Lev Trotski
ps. ima not a fan of russia lol
Helen Keller was jilarious
Hilarious. The only part that bugged me were the fact that they screwed up on the time stamp on the responses.
I.e. Mount vesuvius blowing up 1936 years ago (or whatever) but the reply by the Pompeiians was like 20 MINUTES ago, so kind of a delayed/anachronistic reaction, don’tcha think? LOL
At first this was hysterical!! And I was all like XD
And then I got to the comments. Then I was like =/
I like how half of it is anti-religious history revisionism.
I think Osama said some correct hings on how Americans tthink.
I’m a little sensitive about the Catholic comments, because, really, we’re trying harder! But the Crusades and the Inquisition; yeah, okay, we deserve that. Generally pretty funny.
Holy hell, this was one of the most creative, hilarious things I’ve ever read. You should also do some stuff with their names like George DelawareCrossing Washington
I wanna see some civil war stuff
Jonestown “Making Kool-aid for everyone, I always use too much sugar, hope someone doesn’t get a stomach ache :-/”
Reply Jonestown “This.Isn’t.Good”

Jackie O just checked in at Darby’s Drycleaners in Dallas.

Just some suggestions
Ira Goldstein: “Just got on a train to camp auschwitz. Really cramped, can’t wait to get there and take a shower”
Hey, love your stuff, some of it reaaally funny
I dnt know if someone said it before but there were only 2 tablets from God with 10 commandment that is…
Pls get that rgt, thx.
btw, Im not hatin. Just want ur stuff to be correct
Luv, nel
i especially like the Helen Keller one.. LOL
watch this end up the way we teach history to em young fawkers eh…
How do I know these aren’t fabricated as well?
Aaah… that’s how
Come on, break a leg guys! lets not spoil it getting all political, historical and grammatical.
good job for making a sullen person ROFLing!
The indians actually invited the pilgrims, not the other way around, way to go Euro-trash
This made me laugh, but I don’t appreciate being called a “religious freak” or a “religious wing nut”. I wasn’t insulted, but I am now. Good job promoting tolerance.
When is part three coming out?
lmao helen keller
Awesome stuff!! Starting work with a smile with our great historians in mind!
omg, too damn funny. LOVED the Helen Keller status. lol
who cares how incorrect some of it is… it’s supposed to be humorous so
get a sense of humour!
Oh for crying out loud people!! It’s a JOKE!!!! And sometimes jokes are funnier when they twist, or conveniently ignore the truth. Thanks so much for a laugh – I don’t know why people didn’t find it funny – I thought it was the most hilarious thing I’ve read for ages!!
Helen Keller was the best!
Ira Goldstein: I know you are gonna get some heat about your remark, but it really made me laugh…I think this site is hilarious….FB really need this …sometimes things get too serious and political on main page….
Absolutely great with all the bad new we have to read this was refreshing …made my day keep it up….also would like to thank my friend from Australia for sharing this.
Congrats WYLO on a good job making history funny… we take ourselves too seriously sometimes – laughter IS the best medicine. Helen Keller was priceless!
This is great! But the reply times are wrong (eg: a reply 10 minutes ago to something that happened 400 years ago)
if possible, even better than the first. Mt Vesuvius is hysterical and i love the god ones from the 1st. nice @ alabama wanting a dislike button
really really creative peeps doing this. i love it.
yeah, pretty funny and, damn witty. I agree that it’s just a joke and historical inaccuracies should be taken lightly. Problem is, even tho most (hopefully) people know that; there were 2 tablets with ten commandments and not ten; that “the Holy Bible” does not state that the earth was made 6000yrs ago but only certain evangelists located mainly in the Southern US; that it’s the Muslims who kicked the Christians out of the Holy Land before anyone ever thought of a crusade, a lot of kids these days don’t get to reading as much as some of us did and they take this kinda kidding around fro granted. Food for thought: what do we do about it?
Goes without saying that this whole idea is genius tho!!
I pissed myself laughing with the first edition!
I hadn’t seen the first one, but these are still pretty funny. Except for the Pearl Harbor one; you don’t joke about that. That will NEVER be funny.
Also I think the people who are like take-the-religious-stuff-as-a-joke kind of thing and lighten-up say that because they are not religious, so they don’t really get that it could in fact be offensive to some people.
Good stuff. Hope you’re working on more. We’ve got centuries of material, so take your pick. =o)
“Marie Antionette is no longer in a relation ship with Her Head.”
classic shit LOL!
Actually, Jerusalem isn’t that hot. Israel usually is (esp. the half of it that is a desert) but J’lem is on a mountain.. it gets pretty cold there.
Not Alaska-cold, but cold.
Other than that – lolz
Omg people, the christians never got kicked out in first place by the muslims. the jews got kicked out by the muslims, and later the crusade with the christian’s came along, pls get your history right if you try to correct someone. \
Great Work Love it!!!
Hey, cool job on both versions, BUT the Marie Antoinette qoute has long been disproven as fictional.
too much Christian bashing for me, but that gets a cheap laugh from most morons. part 1 put “the world is flat” (fact) equal with evolution (were you there?). Most idiots saying “its just a joke,lighten up” dont get whats going on here. Love all the muslim jokes (?) .. oh yeah, they are victims.
Not enough christian bashing for me really.
Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky are in a relationship.
Kenneth Starr likes this.
It’s Complicated with Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton.
Rj thats what I would expect from someone who creates a page about fisting an old mans ass, what are you 12? good luck in your life your going to need it.
really cool! great ideas – and so funny…
Why so precious people, this stuff is as good as any comic I have seen perform and better than most. I agree that there should be at least a part3 in fact all the way to 100 would be good.
Many thanks to Stumble
LMFAO This is fab!!!! Love it! I like how its light hearted and there’s something for everyone! Part 3 ASAP! and to those who are bitching about accuracy and grammer, anyone can tell an accurate summation of history, its easily researched but to make it funny, GENIUS!!!! xxx
do something about Martin Luther King…lol.
Just saw “The Social Network”. It is incredible how things have changed. You guys really hit the spot! I wish I was so creative! Hope we’ll get some more. Anything about EU?
Sincerely LMFAO!
ROFL… part 2!… Almost died chokin’ from LMFAO… genuine! RSPCT!
Would be much funnier if it was in chronological order. Just my two cents.
LOLOLOL
That’s brave, taking on Christianity like that. I’m sure you beat up Islam pretty good, too.
OMG ! hillariiousss !! pleaase keep it goiing !
This is SO very funny we enjoyed it bunches, but some of your data is inaccurate
Can we do Mohamed joking about beheading everyone, or will that qualify as “muslim outrage” and make them attack infidels again…
“Native Muslims” in the Holy Land? Um, no. They were conquerors. Jews and Christians were the “natives.” The Crusades were an attempt to wrest it back.
Unfortunately, you can’t tell the truth about Muslims. You might get your head cut off. So you gotta make up shit and pretend they’re the poor innocents ones.
Silence! I keel you, infidel!
“NATIVE MUSLIMS”???
Er … you mean after conquering a land by the sword, you’re considered “Native”?
It’s too bad ignorance on this is so widespread … or maybe just trying to avoid being killed by the “Natives”?
“seriously, these pages are LMAO funny and you guys want to debate politics and religion… lighten up!!”
Unfortunately, many get their “knowledge” of history from sources like this. It’d be tragic to let them continue in their cluelessness, since it leads to messed up world views.
“It’s funny because it’s true”; when it’s not true, it kinda breaks the “funny” part.
Love these … though I think at least one of them should have someone commenting “FIRST!” … best place for that I thought was in part one, for the signing of the Declaration of Independence … could have had John Hancock comment.
wow, this is so classic!
Still prefer the Facebook version of “Hamlet” by Sarah Schmelling:
http://www.mcsweeneys.net/2008/7/30schmelling.html
@Grimmy Honestly do Europeas look native to the region? NO they don’t? at that period of time Muslims were the natives of the region get over yourself!
I never comment on this stuff…. But that Helen Keller thread was one of the funniest things I’ve ever read. I don’t feel good about that, but LMAO!
Chat thread between John and Bobby Kennedy
JFK>RFK: Bobbyboy I’m headin’ down to Big D this weekend. Need you to drop by and feed the cat.
RFK: Jackaroo! Woot woot Partayyyy!
Bidness or is you takin’ the missus?
JFK: All Missus and no kisses on b b bidness…just Jackie no Smackie. First time visit stuff–gotta keep it legit the whole way. Buncha Catholic haters down there…juss In & Out quickie is all…parade or somethin I think.
RFK: Das allright. Dump got no hockey anyway. Plus these days they say you get shanked pickin’ up a rock in the Redbird.
JFK: Aiiiit–they got the whole police force comin’ out anyway. Juss in & out like I said.
What’s Redbird? we writin’ at the same time. Technology sux–can’t tell if somethin’s comin’ or goin.
RFK: No doubt dat!
Yo check it criss-cross again. I wrote No doubt that about the cops protectin Your Homesilk Catholic Bitch Ass. Hey Giancanna’s guy is there–Whiskey A Go Go it is I think. Jack somethingorother owns it. Emerald his last name, or Diamonds or Rubies–sumthin like dat. He could get you summadat sweeeet Texas Tang if you can ditch the missus for a coupla hours.
JFK: Naw cuzz thanks tho. Straight shot this time. No rocks OR Go Go, in & out’s all it is. But hey checkit, seriously cuzz, election’s comin’ up and my back’s killin’ me. This new cortisone stuff ain’t workin’ too well–givin’ me a fat frog’s neck too. We need to dog N pony up on that bill. Can you have somethin ready to go next week?
RFK: Nuthin’ cuzz, already covered it. Dang I can’t believe you passin up Texas Tang! U want me to call down on “urgent bizz” so you can bail out for a hitNrun at the Go Go?
JFK: Naw cuzz–just call Lyndon and Hubert and get those ass kissing newsboys over to the house–gotta get that civil rights bill signed Monday when I get back.
RFK: C-Rights It Is Captain Skip Skip Sniffy! Later!
RFK: Yo man jus think. Between that and the the tax cuts and all that space bidness, Repub ass gonna get Pwn’d next Nov.
JFK: I hear dat. You him. Who? Da man.
Latro–love ya bro!
RFK: C U Monday. We’ll drive over and get you ourselves.
Oooh. Speaking of that – Yeesh man, have your girl call down to the plane and make sure those pilots made a vodka run. I think we finished off most of it week before last headed to Grand Rapids for the mud bog nationals. See if they got that killer puke stain off the rear bulkhead—Yup it’s mine if not…sorry bout dat. Missed the crapper by thiiiiiis much.
This is hilarious. very interesting and creative.
Very cool. Historical inaccuracy detracts from the funny a little, though…
You do realize that LBJ really didn’t want to sign the Civil Rights Bill and that it took Republicans to overcome a Democrat filibuster led by I believe Al Gore, Sr and everyone’s favorite Democrat/Grand Kleagle Senator Byrd.
JFK today would be a Republican. He was a hawk, he loved America, and he understood that low taxes would make the economy roar (which it did). Democrats today have nothing in common with JFK, but instead are a bunch of blame-America-first, anti-capitalism, high-tax, wealth redistributionist lovers of the Israel-hating United Nations and the Islamofascist-apologetic European Left. Barack Obama et al are taking this country off the edge of a cliff. Coming Brown/Boxer wins in California spell out plainly that Americans do not yet understand the stark reality that our nation is bankrupt and business as usual is yesterday’s manna.
@ELO: Man, if you guys were still that party (for the most part) you’d have a lot more people interesting in voting for Lincoln’s party of abolition and progress. The fact remains that when the Dixiecrats jumped ship, you let their hateful a**es pollute YOUR party. It’s a shame. (It’s also why we should do away with this two-party nonsense altogether and try and get the religious contingents under some control; no more lobbies trying to bankroll our senators, be they Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist or the like.)
Speaking of which, for all of the people who were offended by a practically innocuous article, are you seriously trying to say that the people who bankroll the government and the media are less protected? Seriously? You folks need to wake up and stop sending money to those televangelists.
THEY ARE FUCKING JOKES, no one gives a shit if the info is right, just as long as its funny. You tight ass shit wads piss me off, no wonder there was a flood.
Was that the guy from The Last of the Mohicans in the Thanksgiving one?
Man, you should write for cracked.com. Seriously.
The second EPA comment says “4 hours ago” like the first one, but the Exxon-Valdez comment before it says “50 minutes ago.”
Excellent I wanna bed the the next Pope I like pointy hats.
HAHA oh man these are great!!
I was kind of down today after messing up at a play, and opened this page. What a great way to bring me right back up! I am laughing and cannot stop reading. Gracias.
Do a third one please!!! Include Watergate and Hurricane Katrina!
I CALLED EDITH AND SHE SAID THAT THIS IS FUNNY.
JO H
Wickedd funny. Keep em coming man. And to everyone that’s yelling about ignorance and grammar, you fail at being happy.
OMG I haven’t laughed this hard in about 6 mos. By far the funniest stuff I’ve seen on the net since I got on 2 yrs ago.The best was in the comment section about the train to the camp. Thank you STUMBLE.
what I’d like to see would be:

Religious idiots can’t take a joke

I am a Muslim and I find this really funny!! Thanks.
Funny stuff
