We have a new leader in the Dumbest Hot Take of 2023 contest.

It's called Chavez Ravine.

 

ra·vine rə-ˈvēn 

Synonyms of ravine

: a small narrow steep-sided valley that is larger than a gully and smaller than a canyon and that is usually worn by running water

 

Ravine flooding generally occurs with excessive seasonal rainfall. The end result is the overflowing of riverbanks or the rise in lake levels at the ravine or river mouth. 

 

Can't wait for Pizzagate's take on the next hurricane to slam into Florida.

Aerial photos showed the area surrounding the ballpark in Chavez Ravine completely submerged, a stunning sight in an area that rarely gets enough rain to affect games.

 

There have been only 17 postponements in the history of Dodger Stadium, most coming in April, but the arrival of Hilary -- the first tropical cyclone to make landfall in California since 1939 -- forced the league to shift schedules for the Dodgers, Angels, and Padres.

I apologize. You are correct.

List of plagues visited on the heathens (recent memory):

1. Maui wildfire. Hawaii democrats to blame.

2. Missouri tornadoes. God enjoys Drag Queen Story Hour and let 'em know it in no uncertain terms.

3. Vermont flooding. Come on. This one's obvious. Ben and Jerry's rainbow ice cream, etc.

 

I predict God will show his anti-DeSantis bias by bringing a hurricane next month, forcing Ron back into his kinky white boots as retribution for all that anti-Disney stuff (God likes Disney too). He may even spend a night at Mar-a-Lago disguised as Hurricane Melania.

 

This is fun! 

More, please.

And here I was thinking the Babylon Bee was not very clever. Perhaps you can freelance for them.

I should offer my services.

But really: look at the original post (coming from Pizzagate Fool) blaming the flooding of Dodger Stadium on their LGBT day. And that was presumably offered up as a serious take on a news event, the old "God is punishing the heathens."

I did. It’s worth an eye-roll. That someone would turn it into an unfunny screed is what I find more interesting.

Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.

i.e. Build Doger Stadium in Chavez RAVINE.

There's a really good documentary about how the Dodgers, with government support, essentially forcibly displaced a hispanic community that used to live there in order to build their stadium and it surrounding parking lots.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Chavez_Ravine

This after screwing over the people of Brooklyn.

I will always hate the Dodgers ...

It was before my time but wasn't Robert Moses the one who screwed over Brooklyn. Walter O'Malley was looking into building a new ballpark in Brooklyn to replace aging Ebbets Field, but Moses wanted them to go to Queens which became the future home of the Mets. When O'Malley realized he wasn't getting a new ballpark in Brooklyn then he started to think about moving the team out of NY.

I think you're right. It was the era of urban redevelopment and a lot of those mega projects really had no concern for the fate of the existing neighborhoods, etc. As the documentary shows, O'Malley was more of an opportunist when LA politicians came calling, promising a brighter future on the west coast.

It will be prepared and protected unlike Maui.  


They weren’t prepared in Jacksonville.

 

They weren’t prepared for Hurricanes Ian and Nicole.

 

They still aren’t prepared for the out of control inflation and insurance rates.

 

Florida is a disaster under DeSaster.
