Yet more new categories
The Ministry, in its relentless quest to improve no matter the price in blood or suffering, has developed another new category, and a new icon for an old one.
|
|
The Miracle of Science, for news on medicine, biology and the squishy sciences. |
This icon, we felt captured the essence of the Horseshit category far better than any sophomoric fecal imagery, and so the old one was liquidated: [Update] this has been altered to reflect the new category name.
|
|
Unmitigated Gall, for Ridiculous or offensive thoughts, plans, or ideas. |

For your edification, here is how the Ministry uses, and abuses, the categories:
|
|
Perfidy, for announcements from the Ministry. |
|
|
Perfidy Responds, for a minister to respond to polite or incisive questions or posts. |
|
|
Perfidy Attacks, for when a minister feels the need to administer a thorough fisking, or beat someone about the head for stupidity or offensiveness. |
|
|
That Buck Rogers Stuff, generally for Buckethead's confused musings on space travel, but also for news from the hard sciences and engineering, and anything that strikes us as science fiction become reality. |
|
|
The Miracle of Science, for news on medicine, biology and the squishy sciences. |
|
|
Crazy Foreigners, for commentary on the queer behavior of outlanders. |
|
|
War, for cogitation on matters military, strategery, and specifically the War on Terror. |
|
|
Partisan Politics, for news and insults relating to domestic politics. |
|
|
Filthy Lucre, for economics and the gross abuse of the same. Also lifestyles of the rich and shameless. |
|
|
Entertainment, for the Ministry's thinkings on the Media, the glamorous entertainment bidness and like matters. |
|
|
Music Wonkery, for Johno's musical logorrhea on issues relating specifically to arcane and obscure technical issues involved in the production or performance of music. |
The following categories may seem similar, but here are the guidelines for their use:
|
|
Unmitigated Gall, for Ridiculous or offensive thoughts, plans, or ideas. |
|
|
Darwin Award Contender, for people or organizations who commit dangerously stupid acts . |
|
|
Lead Pipe Cruelty, for Outrageous cruelty, or callousness we notice in the world, or a short brutal comment on someone. (longer attacks would be "Perfidy Attacks"). |
|
|
Holy Shit!, for something amazing, remarkable and most of all unexpected; or maybe even something that people should just really be aware of . |
|
|
It'll Be a Cold Day in Hell, for an idea or plan that will never, ever come to pass - It'll be a cold day in hell. . |
|
|
Just So You Know, as before, the catch all category - now with a slightly smaller domain. |
[wik] The Ministry of Future Perfidies notes from the distant vantage point of the year of our Lord 2025, that many of these categories proved to be unnecessarily precise, and were merged. Intermittent improvements to the quality of icons was seen every time someone bothered to pay attention to the site. (So, on average, about every 5-7 years.)
