A Voice for Men takes the last gravy train to Clicheville

Over on A Voice for Men, Paul Elam is knocking the clichés out of the park! In a post about … oh, something about feminists being about to get their big comeuppance, who the fuck cares, all his posts are pretty much the same at this point, he explains how the mean feminists’

gravy train is about to derail, and that right quickly. One set of wheels is already off the track. … the choo choo is hittin’ poo poo.

That’s right, the metaphorical feminist gravy train is metaphorically derailing into a metaphorical mountain of metaphorical poop.

After a few more paragraphs of this poopery, Elam offers up a bit of inspiration for his troops:

[T]he times they are a changing. The worm is turning and lies are burning. Their whole house of cards is about to go up in a puff. What you are seeing is just the desperation that comes with them waking up to it.

Believe me, it does my heart good. Just to see their frantic scrambling to point the finger at me and my brothers, while they comically pretend our sisters aren’t standing right next to us, every time one more their lies bites the dust, is an absolute highlight in my day.

Must be time to crank up the action around here.

And then he really kicks it into high gear:

Keep your eye on the ball, boys. Put the pedal to the metal.  Wake up and smell the coffee, feminists, because the shoe is on the other foot now!  We’re burning the candle at both ends  — because when the going gets tough the tough get going. What goes around comes around. Feminists and manginas, you made your bed, now you’re going to have to lie in it. The tide’s beginning to turn, all you gender ideologues and your lackeys at the SPLC, and it looks like there’s a new sheriff in town! Remember, nice guys finish last. And it ain’t over till the fat lady sings!

Ok, that’s not really Elam any more. That’s just a bunch of random clichés borrowed from Steve’s Cliché List, with some references to feminists and manginas and the Southern Poverty Law Center shoved in here and there.

Huh. I think I just figured out how Elam writes his posts.

EDITED TO ADD: For whatever reason, this post is no longer up at AVFM; here’s the Google cache version. Read the comments there too; quite a little shitstorm going on there.

@abeegoesbuzz

I was heaping sarcasm on top of your sarcasm to make a delicious sarcasm sundae. Too bad it’s the internet. Without tone of voice and body language it’s difficult to see that.

Hee hee! Ah, that sarcasm font thing again. Or maybe we all need our own blinking sarcasm signs… Curses, WordPress!

I think it one of his standard posts whenever the donations begin to slack off or rumours of his arrest and conviction circulate the manosphere.

Oh and Maya, a substantial part of manboob’s and other feminist’s site’s traffic are MRA’s scoping the latest “intelligence” so site traffic is a “gender” equitable indicator.

lol, you can’t possibly actually believe your own fairy tales

I’ve never seen David brag about the traffic he gets, so I don’t know what MRAMonkey is hoping to prove.

I think “burning the candle at both ends” is one of Elam’s few apt stolen cliches — It burns hot and fast, but will scorch the hand of whoever’s holding it, and extinguish itself in the sloppy pool of wax it leaves behind.

Ugh, it’s like reading bad lyrics. What did the English language ever do to him?

I am amused by the idea of the SPLC being anyone’s lackey, though.

Oh, that last part wasn’t real…sounds just like the first two parts, though.

HollyPervocracy if my computer dies from the amount of tea that I just spat on it I am coming after you! For this:

“Holy shit. I’m as surprised as a tin cat in a tiny forest of electric horse polishers.”

Bless.

And for the record Dr Canning, here is one Manboobz reader who never visits any MR websites any more. I refuse to add to their web traffic.

@xardoz – It burns hot and fast, but will scorch the hand of whoever’s holding it, and extinguish itself in the sloppy pool of wax it leaves behind.

Oh, so that’s just wax? I guess I don’t need these rubber gloves, this long-handled scrubbing brush and this bottle of bleach after all.

My mistake! I was thinking it was WAY more coherent than Elam’s usual bloviating. 😀

As for the “I hate Dr. Tara,” he was being sarcastic; he was defending himself against charges of misogyny by pointing out that there are several women he likes and that like him back.

I don’t hate x! Some of my best friends are x! Always a solid defense.

Our great leader was enthusiastic because feminist man-hater Kellett bit the dust. The MRMs rhiteous influence grows every day, while the corrupt power of feminist bigotry continues to putrify and wane. On days like this, I feel sorry for you people.

To see what I am talking about, google “Obamacare sexism”. My March article has several follow ups. This is why we will win. It just is not very hard to point out vile feminist discrimination.

Evil feminist operatives are incompetent and ineffective. MRM voices continue to multiply and grow. Your time has come. Soon you will join white supremacists and slave traders in the dustbin of history. Bon voyage, bigots. Most of you will be forgotten. Some will be remembered with scorn, as object lessons on the dark side of human nature.

In the long run, EVERYONE gets forgotten. And most of us within two generations.

Sad hard truth, man.

You keep telling yourself that, AntZ. Whatever gets you through the night besides VR and FOREIGN BRIDE.

Poor Antz is so confused. We will inevitably win! I know we won’t win, feminism is too powerful and runs the world. But we shall prevail! Nope, back to work on the plan to divide the country in half. But no, we’re winning and all the rest of you will be fish food!

It must be terrible to live like that.

He should ask the Susan B. Komen foundation and the GOP whether the feminist gravy train is going off the rails. If anything, women are gaining more power by the day.

Your great leader thinks that female rape victims are “stupid conniving bitches” who were “begging for it”.

Do you agree with that sentiment, Antzy?

David’s paragraph sounds like it was written by Zombie Ann Landers.

The MRM will win because people will Google “Obamacare sexism!”

Of course everyone who would Google “Obamacare sexism” is probably already an MRA. And for that matter probably doesn’t use Google.

I googled Obamacare sexism and the followup article was on a Tea party website. Real accomplishment.

Hey AntZ? look at what Planned Parenthood offers men:

Services offered at Planned Parenthood health centers vary by location. Some of the services include
checkups for reproductive or sexual health problems
colon cancer screening
erectile dysfunction services, including education, exams, treatment, and referral
jock itch exam and treatment
male infertility screening and referral
premature ejaculation services, including education, exams, treatment, and referral
routine physical exams
testicular cancer screenings
prostate cancer screenings
urinary tract infections testing and treatment
vasectomy

http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-topics/men-4285.htm

Stop lying and saying men are dying from sexual health issues or have no services available to them. Just a heads up though, vote Republican and you can kiss those services goodbye because the repubs despise Planned Parenthood.

You know, for what it’s worth, I hope the MRM does actually succeed in helping men. If its true that Mary Kellett was discriminating or whatever the fuck she did and was fired for it then great! though I have a hunch if she was reprimanded or fired it had more to do with her superiors finding out and blowing the whistle, not the MRM.

Oh my god, yeah. I need to thank you guys for that. I was laughing for a really long time this afternoon about the MRM’s misunderstanding of how bar disciplinary hearings work.

Also, isn’t “dear leader” a bit culty? The only other person I can think of who’s commonly referred to that way is Kim Jong-un.

Oh, sorry, it was “great leader”. Nope, that doesn’t sound any better.
