Ok, I would normally feel offended but this is so disjointed rambling, I find it simply amusing. Just wtf?  :D

Why would you be offended?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

You really should look into that.

I don't see anything here that a reasonable person would be offended by.  It certainly is rambling, but the idea of a father marrying a son for tax reasons isn't one I had thought of before, and is an amusing and clever hypothetical.

I know it is the HuffPost so we are supposed to sneer at the people the HuffPost writers sneer at, but this seems to be a innocuous stream-of-consciousness response to a fairly innocuous question.

He is a bit eccentric. He was in a huge battle with his neighbours in Ireland over whether or not he could paint his 12th century tower peach. I think he won in the end.

Don't know if he's crazy, but he's certainly over rated.

He seems crazed but I don't think I could find fault if someone was offended by the early bit where he worries if gays fighting for the name debases what marriage is.
