Anyone want to play a new game, called "Applaud or Appalled"?

Asked by ibstubro (18804points) August 27th, 2014

It’s simple.

One Jelly gives the name of a person, place or thing.

The next Jelly says that they either Applaud or are Appalled by that person, place or thing. If you peek in and see that you don’t have much opinion on the current person, place or thing, pass on by and please peek back in later.

A person example might be:
“Kim Kardashian”
To which I would reply:
“APPALLED! To think that someone with so little talent and average looks could garner that much attention.

Obviously it helps if you pick a person, place or thing that is somewhat to very controversial.

I’ll start with an easy one!

More appalled than not. I was put off by some early work, and never really revisited him.

Mmm, think I’ll steer clear of your area, @KNOWITALL. ;-)

kids supervised with appropriate firearms in a controlled environment can be ok. Everything about that 9 year old with a fully automatic sub-machine gun was just wrong.

appalled

Sorry, this is supposed to be modeled on TJBM format. You respond to the person above you, then give an example to be responded to

Putin appalls me, too, @ARE_you_kidding_me. He’s playing with lives as though it’s a board game.

Appalled,
A perfect example of what playing political games with “racism” can do to gullible, uninformed segments of society. It also distorts the reality of the people who police them. That place is exists all over this country as little islands of alien landscapes. We look at it like it’s a different world, but it’s down the street. Fox, cnn, Al Sharpton and assorted pundits just keep fanning the flames.

I’m appalled at his behavior while at the same time applauding his ability to entertain vast numbers of people. (With whom I seem to have nothing in common.)

Applaud, and appalled. He was very effective in so many ways. He was also very defective in so many dangerous ways.

I beg to differ about the burial at sea of Bin Laden. It was a very smart move; they didn’t need a shrine of martyrdom for terrorists to come to.

ragingloli's avatar

it was an assassination and a silencing, to forever get rid of the one guy that could demolish the official 9/11 explanation

janbb's avatar

Of course it was an assassination; nobody is disputing that!
