Talk:Hurricane Katrina (2005)

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Think about it. If they want people to fear a hurricane, then shouldn't they give it a more intimidating name than "Katrina"? I mean, who the hell is going to be afraid of something called "Katrina"? I can just imagine some redneck couple in Florida watchin' the teevy, and FOX News says that Hurricane Katrina is coming, and they're like, "oh, how cute, Katrina is coming!" Now imagine if it were called Hurricane Hitler. I don't know about you, but dude, I think that would provoke a much stronger reaction. (And it's catchier, too!) Picture the same couple: "Oh shit! 'Hurricane Hitler' is coming! Get the fucking guns ready!" Although the guns won't be much use against a hurricane, it's the whole reaction that counts. Hear what I'm saying?

Note to the National Weather Service: Here are some more impressive names that you can give to future tropical storms/hurricanes.

too serious[edit]

This is uncyclopedia. If there a tragedy, we relieve it with laugh and dark humor. this article should be largely cut, because of not-uncyclopedian texts, notes and copy-pastes from Wikipedia and other sources.

And if you think that it's not right to laugh from that (or any other) tragedy, well, fuck you. Laugh is most powerful weapon in the world. Uncyclopedia is satirical site. And this article should be satirical, too. Because you in USA should fight with Katrina by any means. With laugh, too. Stalin and Hitler fears laugh. Katrina is not alive, but deserve same attention from humorists and satiric commentaries. --MaDeR 10:23, 27 Oct 2005 (UTC)


I removed the serious section... its retarted and has no place here. If you are offended then go to wikipedia.

Parts of it are still too serious. in my opinion. Gyre 06:57, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
I agree unclyclopedia is getting quite lame--82.45.210.78 15:32, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

I work with Dr. Cataldie. When he gets back from his latest twelve-hour shift, identifying and autopsying corpses that simmered in the boiling crap-waters of No Orleans, I'll be sure to show him this article. He'll probably chuckle. Especially if he huffs a kitten first. -Slander

Split![edit]

I've split this article into Hurricane Katrina and Catrina, dumping most of the serious stuff and the advance predictions into the latter article as the main Hurricane Katrina entry is getting rather large. Content is unchanged, this is just a split of the existing text from these articles. --Carlb 07:56, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Piece of shit[edit]

This article makes me feel like a piece of shit. This is supposed to be funny, and some of it actually is. It starts out pretty hilarious. Much of it, however, is not funny at all but a rehash of actual history, mixed in with unfunny lies about the survivors (nobody actually fired at any helicopters, a lot of stories of violence and looting and rape were just completely made up). We need a new article that doesn't suck. --YourMotherHasMyUnderwear 23:30, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Alright then, since I'm a newbie and everyone seems to agree with me, having not commented in about 24 hours, it's time for the knife. The funny shit stays, the rest of it goes. I hope it's not too short afterwards--YourMotherHasMyUnderwear 02:40, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

No one agrees with you; the "reports that the violence may have been somewhat overstated may also be somewhat overstated" angle has already been addressed and demanding that this page go away just because it displays US incompetence at every governmental level in an unfavourable light does seem a wee bit like agenda-pushing? --66.102.80.212 17:08, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
I think the point is that real quotes (a rehash of actual history) aren't funny. Like seriously, they're not dude. The quotes in the war on Terra section, in particular, mostly aren't funny except the Bush ones. Like, how the crap is this funny? "This is a national disgrace. FEMA has been here three days, yet there is no command and control. We can send massive amounts of aid to tsunami victims, but we can't bail out the city of New Orleans." - Terry Ebbert, head, Gnu Orleans emergency operations [16] " Is it just because of the oh-so-clever replacement of the word New with Gnu? Oh, haha, I get it now! I'm gonna fix this shit someday. Maybe like now, but maybe later, or sometime in-between. Right now I kinda barely give a shit, but maybe if someone like you pisses me off a little more, I'll do it. NeuralSimulation 07:11, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Life Jackets Issued To All Americans For Some Reason[edit]

Hmmm...
June 5, 2002 | WASHINGTON, DC—Assuring the nation that "there is no need for alarm," the Office of Homeland Security issued all U.S. citizens life jackets for some unexplained reason Monday. [1]

Evidently, *someone* saw this disaster coming... years in advance.
