"Guess Heaven Needed a X" rant

[Flash]

Burning in the pits of hell?

That's my guess. But my religion doesn't believe in purgatory.

My purgatory doesn't believe in religion.

Read somewhere today that "Heaven Needed a Tenor". Apparently Heaven needed a shortstop a couple weeks ago too.

Can we ****ing stop with this horrible saying? Heaven doesn't need ****. Celebrities get old, or they get sick, and they die. Just like us. A little while back, my mother called to tell me the guy who lived next door to me when i was growing up had just died. Nobody said "guess Heaven needed a mechanic". Maybe they just don't drive cars there and instead walk to all the operas and baseball games that apparently happen so often that God is plucking retired celebrities left and right.

sorry, but it just bugs me--rant over.

And if the heaven thing is true, I'm not sure I want to go there if they need as many soldiers as they've been getting there in the last six years.

When Eddie Griffin died, there was a quote from someone, an old coach or friend I believe, who said, "Heaven needed a power forward." If Eddie did fill that role, heaven better hope Marty Blake arrives soon because heaven needs a decent basketball scout too.

Next time I'll just say "Good career move."

'Hell needed a fat guy with pancreatic cancer' wouldn't fit in the headline.

Damn it, Buck. I'm laughing so hard the bed is shaking, and I think it's going to wake up my wife.

Yeah, it's an annoyance for folks to say it, but what else can they say most of the time? "I'm sorry for the poor *******"?

Mystery Meat had filed an complaint last night about "R(est). I(n). P(eace)."

It's a good rant that is needed, but what would you offer as an alternative? Just asking. :-\

Had to revive this to rant against this little number:

Robinson did die, however, doing what he loved to do.

This little cliche also needs to be expunged from our lexicon. For God's sake, people ...

All I know is, when I get up there, Heaven will have immediate openings for some whores, a couple of the Keebler elves, and a hydroponic gardener.

So you'll have fresh veggies, have the ***** bake treats ... what the hell are you gonna do with the Keebler elves, Mr. Sicko?

i'll bet dollars to keebler elves fudge shoppe cookies that jones doesn't want that hydroponic gardener for fresh veggies.

What happened? They got tired of looking at pictures on the internet in heaven and wanted a (red) X to break up the monotany? ;D
