Hatecookies!
Published by Sabotabby July 16th, 2008 in Imperialism for Dummies, We Eat, Torture, Human Rights, Shame on you for not being rich white and privileged, sharing the awesomeFolks, the internet has been won.
Background: Something Awful commentators react to recently-released footage of then 16-year-old Omar Khadr being cruelly interrogated by Canadian officials at Guantanamo. Their reactions range from sympathetic to death threats—these soft children of privilege who never leave the comfort of their parents’ basement, let alone face unending hell in an illegal American gulag.
Anyway. GvB responds by baking cookies for the torture apologists.
Here’s the cookies being scooped out onto the sheet just before they head into the oven. I really like Anolon jelly-roll baking sheets because they seem to heat evenly and the high sides make them useful for a lot of baking tasks, but none of you would know that because you feed like animals from a trough of violent sensationalist news and glory in the abuse of fundamental human rights. You discuss the semantics of what it means to truly torture a person as if you had the faintest inkling of what it means to suffer. Mercy is foreign to you. You are ignorant savages so far removed from principles of human decency that if you were suddenly thrust into the resurrected presence of the framers of the Constitution, they would immediately begin spewing blood from every orifice and their souls would yearn for the grave.

You need to read the whole thing, because there are pictures. And also, delicious, delicious cookies.
I actually can’t stand crispy cookies, but w/e, this still rocks.
I’m going to make these cookies this weekend, if I can figure out how to do it in my broiler (I don’t have a regular oven). Love the variety of smileys
OMG.
This makes me happier than anything so far today.
Cookies flavoured with the tears and bile of righteous outrage.
SWEET!
Sweet, and a little bit salty.
Yup, the internet has been won. That was great.
The only way they could be better is if they contained the brains of my enemies (so I could gain their courage and psychoses).
