Welcome to Don't Poke the Crazy, your guide to crazy on the internet!
This blog chronicles the domestic adventures (and misadventures) of That Feisty Redhead as well as any crazy we can find on the internet.
When we say crazy, we don't mean the "oh the woecakes that has transpired" type pf crazy. We're talking about the full out nut-fest "leave Britney alone!" kind of thing. Everything from random people with utterly hilarious views of "how things work" to the "HOLY FUCKING HELL that guy just launched his wife from a catapult!" Is that enough quotations for you?
That's how we define crazy: so far out of the realm of normal that it is completely beyond the common understanding of the universe. And considering this is the internet, that's pretty fucked up!
People, pictures, websites, chat rooms, even IM conversations. We don't discriminate. If it's got the crazy, we'll share it with you!
This site was not only inspired by That Scotch-Irish Bastard's uncanny ability to unwittingly engage in the weirdest conversations with some of the craziest women on the web, but also the Rubberneckers group on
Ravelry. The Rubberneckers are a group devoted to finding the humor in just about everything, particularly drama and crazy. It was created to laugh at such without actually engaging.
Remember, you can never win against the crazy! The crazy exists on a different plane of reality than the rest of us. So consider this your place to laugh at the crazy instead of engaging it!
