Irma hits Florida, Ann Coulter does her nails: Today in Tweets

Irma: View from a car

By David Futrelle

Irma is now wreaking its destruction on Florida. And Ann Coulter remains an asshole.

Plus: I get blocked by Scott Adams. And other news.

Any of you who are in Irma’s path, I hope you’re well protected and well provisioned; please let us know you’re ok in the comments if you can.

If you ever wonder where all the extra water in storm surges comes from, well, it’s borrowed from elsewhere.

This happens with tsunamis, too, but with hurricanes the process is much slower; in other words, don;t worry about the people walking around out there.

Oh, and try not to think about this too much:

Ann Coulter offered her unique perspective on the hurricane.

It’s like all rightwing pundits are dissing the hurricane concern as a reflex to counter any mainstream media narrative. They’d say the sky is blue if mainstream media told it’s dark grey and littered with flying debris.

Congratulations on getting blocked, David!

Ann Coulter is one of the stupidest pundits I’ve ever seen. Just breathtakingly moronic.

Or they’re dissing it because climate change denial is getting really hard.

Ann is still at it.

It’s a shame dear Ann cannot be transported straight to where Irma is making landfall. Now.

LOL good timing on visiting Orlando, Valentine. Hope it doesn’t turn into a nightmare scenario for you.

Good to hear from you, and good luck with the hurricane.

I’ve a friend who is a professor at UCF. Fortunately for him and Valentine he figures that unless Irma changes track they’ll get storm force winds at the most (yeah, ‘only’ storm force winds? Yipe).

Tampa and the rest of the west coast isn’t going to be so lucky. 🙁

Note to self:

1. Find out where Valentine chooses holiday.

2. Don’t go there.

Great to hear from you though; and glad you’re safe.

No, no, the only way to stop a bad guy with a hurricane is a good guy with a hurricane.

@Valentine,

Hello! Stay safe!

Alan, you are correct! Little bit stupid to come in hurricane season…we plan for nearly one year and half for this holiday and only now did I think about hurricanes ?

Unfortunately, Coulter gets even dumber and more shitty than that.

Fortunately though, Ron Perlman is still awesome.

Coulter has always been a troll, but she’s now veering into pathetic lulz troll who swiftly gets banned from from blogs like this after a good mocking. It’s the only way she can get attention now that the aggressively awful and bigoted right wing media personality market has gotten so saturated.

If I were a nicer person, I’d feel bad for her.

Wow, Anne Coulter really can’t see a barrel without scraping its bottom, can she?

Hey, Valentine! Stay safe and dry, and I hope all the Mammotheers in the path – or the aftermath – of any of the latest run of disasters stay safe.

I can get somebody wondering idly (xkcd-style) about what happens if you shoot a bullet into a hurricane; I’m somewhat gobsmacked at somebody suggesting actually doing it (seriously, you’re going to start shooting for fun in the middle of a densely-inhabited disaster zone?) and the notion getting taken seriously enough by so many people that a formal request not to has to be officially announced on TV.

Is Coulter trying to be funny and cool or something? Well I suppose the death-toll doesn’t register with her – as long as it’s in other countries, at least. What a hack.

Also in tweets: Pizza hut is demanding their florida workers follow some shitty guidelines to not lose their job because they evacuated for a fucking hurricane.

Those are almost hilariously stupid (“Be prepared NOW but don’t evacuate now, we need our stores staffed in case people want to order hurricane pizza”) but of course there’s nothing funny about someone having to choose between a job and safety.

My area of Florida has around 12 hours before we get hit, and my friends throughout the state are safe so far.

Oh, Ann Coulter? Fuck off. Fuck all the way off.

I have liked Ron Perlman for 30 years. That remains unchanged.

I’m gonna say it: the ocean life must be massively confused right now.

I hope you’re all as safe as can be over there.

Ann Coulter tweets “Everything is fine” as construction cranes blow over in Miami. What an attention seeking buttwiper.

Rush evacuated from the “liberal hoax”, but Coulter decided to stay and prove that it wasn’t as bad as “liberal MSM predictions”. At least Irma weakened to 3 before US landfall.

Anyone else care to swear at Bernina serger sewing machines?

I blocked Scott Adams ages ago, myself. He kept showing up via a (not close) friend. Twitter (and everything else) is better without him!
