I have no problem with the 10 Commandments
being displayed in courtrooms, as long as the IPU's
10 Idle Threats are displayed too.
THE TEN IDLE THREATS
1. I, the IPU, am the Coolest, thy Ideal. Worship
me. (Or don't. Flattery will get you nowhere.)
2. Thou shalt not make any graven images,
except of these 10 Idle Threats.
3. Thou shalt not use my name in vain.
Neither shalt thou pray to Me during My dinner time
nor block thy prayer ID.
4. Thou shalt keep right except when passing.
(Left for thou in the Commonwealth.)
5. Thou shalt not kill. (Yeah, I know you
pretty much figured that one out on your
own, but I just thought I'd remind you.)
Oh, and self defense is OK.
Preemptive self defense? ... that's a little
iffy. ... uh let me get back to you on that.
6. Thou shalt not commit adultery unless
thou live in a red state and thy spouse doesn't
understand you or you are away on business or
some real hottie comes along.
7. This Threat reserved for future use.
8. Thou shalt not bear false witness
against thy neighbor without good reason.
9. There is no Threat number 9.
10. And the number ten Idle Threat:
Thou shalt not spam.
