Quotes revealed, with context


We have a winner! Chris Hayduk-Costa matched the atheists to their quotes correctly, with the following logic:

The only statements I can see Dawkins saying (as a result of his normal speech and reading of hatemail) are 1 and 4. From reading Jen’s blog for a year, I would only feel comfortable attributing 1 or 2 to her. Given the options already proven wrong (if I’ve gone through them properly) the above is the only answer left (assuming my assumptions hold obviously).

The answers, with context, as as follows:

1. “I feel like a prostitute!”

Said by Richard Dawkins, after finding out that 10 more students registered for the conference after finding out that they could effectively pay to have a private breakfast with him. Wish I had a recording.

2. “Now, back to buttfucking!”

Said by yours truly, after a conversation with Greta and JT about…well, buttfucking got sidetracked because JT had to make a phone call.

3. “Eat a bag of dicks!”

Said by JT Eberhard, after Greta was rubbing it in about how great being a lesbian is and how bad we have it. It was extra funny because he didn’t initially realize how that particular saying related to the situation at hand.

4. “Eat shit and die!”

Said by Greta Christina, after JT and I were whining about having to wake up at 7am to go have our private fancy breakfast with Richard Dawkins.

I love how most people correctly guessed that the only plausible thing for Dawkins to say was number 1, unless he was reading hate mail. But I love more that pretty much everyone assumed Greta had to be the one talking about buttfucking. I tricked you, mwahaha!

Atheist conferences are so fun.

    What does it feel like to be an atheist superstar?One day I will overshadow your oratorical and prosaical skills. Feel afraid.

    I was (quietly, over in my corner, where no one could hear me) going “Jen, Jen, Jen and Jen”.

    Well….now I feel like a prostitute….for all I care you can all eat a bag of dicks, then eat shit and die….anyway, now, back to buttfucking!

    I’m still entertained by how almost everyone assumed that I had the buttfucking quote… even though I didn’t. Funny to be pigeonholed like that.Hm. Funny how, in the right context, the word “pigeonholed” suddenly sounds dirty.

    I like that Dawkins was pretty easy and the rest of us were wild cards who could have said any of them. I love the wonder triplets. :)JT

    Hey, Greta, I guessed you for “eat a bag of dicks!” Then again, you’re the only person on the list whom I have not met, so maybe if I had met you, I would have then pigeonholed you just like everyone else.

    But I love the bubble of respect they all left around him… kind of like a halo… hahaha!
