    One does not simply walk into Kmart!

  2. Airigh says:

    WTF?

    I have to move back to Miami. I hate North Carolina!

    • Kelly says:

      We didn’t want you anyway.

      • rhorho says:

        …and you think Florida does, why?

        • Maxwell Silverhammer says:

          Whoa wait a minute did someone actually said they wanted to go BACK to
          florida? At least here in North Carolina we have that ONE guy who can drive.
          And he moved from florida to get away from the bad drivers.

          • Boris says:

            Unfortunately, all the bad drivers *from* Florida came with him.

            • Maxwell Silverhammer says:

              My brother was stationed at Camp Lejune for 3 years before he got reassigned
              to Chopper training in Jacksonville FL. Everytime I talk to him on the phone
              he’s driving to and from classing/exercises, and all I hear is “Its called a TURN SIGNAL A$$HOLE!” or my personal favorite “Aw Cmon! The middle lane is NOT for right hand turns!”

            • jules says:

              They were just passing through for the seasonal migration. I assume they’re back in Florida until the winter passes…

          • Danbala says:

            So… Is this a US-wide thing, complaining about how people from the neighbour state drives? ‘Cause when I was an exchange student, all people said about peeps from the other side of the river was that they couldn’t drive (and this was way up north along the misisiiisisisissisiisi-thingie.

            • Jane St.Clair says:

              Sometimes we complain about people from other counties. As in, “Is it a law that everyone from Brown county has to go ten miles under the speed limit at all times?! Move it Granny!!!”

        • eddiepscetti says:

          I vote for Mississippi! Mississippi was created so people in Alabama would have someone to make fun of.

          • dissimilitude says:

            Not just people in Alabama, people in Tennessee, too.

            • J says:

              Eh, the feeling is mutual. At least we’re not Arkansas.

              And that shirt is just plain creepy.

              • dissimilitude says:

                Yeah, I know….and yes, it is.

                • dissimilitude says:

                  Ok, this is a total WTF nesting failure. I have no idea what happened. Move along, people, nothing to see here.

                  • dissimilitude says:

                    Wait, now it’s in the right place. It was all by itself at the bottom of the page! Aaaaaargh! *head explodes*

                    Stupid wordpress….

                    • rhorho says:

                      Welcome to the wonderful world of PK, Dear. I’m surprised the Moving Post Phenomenon hasn’t happened to you before now. There are rumors that if you post really fast, it will throw you over into GraphJam.

                      • jules says:

                        Also, occasionally you get stuck in an infinite lolcat loop.

                        • rhorho says:

                          …or a monorail jam.

                        • pittypat says:

                          more at 11

                        • rhorho says:

                          less at 12:00…

                        • Danbala says:

                          I had an hysterically exhilirating experience earlier today, where my “Vote” page ended up showing lolcat and Pk pictures, perfectly mixed. (As in, every other lol I voted for was from ICHC, and the other was PK. It was MOST interesting.
                          .
                          Now, if only I could get that particular bug … sorry, feature, to repeat itself always.

                        • rhorho says:

                          That *always* happens to me! Also, I’ll get the same series of 5-6 LOLs twice, then on to the next set. That voting thing is totally fried!

                        • Danbala says:

                          I always get long bouts of reruns, but today was the first time it mixed ichc and pk. (In other words, the first time I was actually happy about its fornicated-up-ness.)

                        • rhorho says:

                          Srsly, maybe it’s just me, but PK *always* gets fornicated up (love that!) with ICHC when I try to vote. My theory is that if you stay on PK voting long enough, you will see a kewt kitteh. Ai lubz teh kewteez, but aiz naut alwaiz in teh moodz, ya knoes?

          • Oddly enough, those in Mississippi laugh at Alabama. Then again that is North Mississippi which is more like Tennessee anyway. South Mississippi, I can see people laughing at.

    • KartoonNotWerk says:

      Don’t let the door hit you on your way out, honey. And put down those grits, you ain’t takin’ them with you…

  3. dissimilitude says:

    Not to be overly pissy, but this could be anywhere. We don’t have a monopoly on tasteless fashion in the south, you know. This could totally be from North Dakota or somewhere.

  4. Airigh says:

    But seriously. Who is that?

  5. Adam says:

    How do we know this picture is from the South?

  6. AC says:

    I kept dreaming I had to destroy the one ring……..
    It was really annoying: I’d get all the way through Mordor, past the Ringwraiths, up mount Doom, chuck the ring in the flippin magma and then what? THE DAMN RING WOULDN’T MELT!!! Ringwraiths left, right and centre and would it melt? Naw.

  7. pittypat says:

    I think her eyeballs are erect.

  8. ZanDPY says:

    Yes. Yes it is.

  9. Confoozled says:

    AAAAHHHHHH!!!! MY EYES!!!!

  10. She says:

    Huzzah for sweeping generalizations!

    • Uncle Fester says:

      It it’s so many preconceptions as to be hysterical.

      To quote Homer Simpson, “It’s funny cuz it’s true”

      As a $5 caption, it’s like Mordor with Wal*Mart and all the niceness removed

  11. Curben says:

    I saw an obama shirt like that at the museum in chicago.

    • Uncle Fester says:

      Well, Chicago is more or less ‘Leng’ and the home of Nyarlathotep

      • Musicmom870 says:

        Uncle Fester, why do you call him that? I’ve googled it and all, but I’m still missing it.

        • It is a Lovecraft reference. IIRC, he is an ever changing god. And none of the Gods in Lovecraftian tales were ever pleasant.

        • Uncle Fester says:

          In Dream Quest of the Unknown Kadath, Nyarlathotep lives on the Plateau of Leng, a cold, windswept, desolate place, in the high castle of Kadath…

          Now, doesn’t cold, windswept and desolate just scream ‘Chicago’? With or without Fosse choreography?

          “I do not recall distinctly when it began, but it was months ago. The general tension was horrible. To a season of political and social upheaval was added a strange and brooding apprehension of hideous physical danger; a danger widespread and all-embracing, such a danger as may be imagined only in the most terrible phantasms of the night. I recall that the people went about with pale and worried faces, and whispered warnings and prophecies which no one dared consciously repeat or acknowledge to himself that he had heard. A sense of monstrous guilt was upon the land, and out of the abysses between the stars swept chill currents that made men shiver in dark and lonely places. There was a daemoniac alteration in the sequence of the seasons — the autumn heat lingered fearsomely, and everyone felt that the world and perhaps the universe had passed from the control of known gods or forces to that of gods or forces which were unknown.

          And it was then that Nyarlathotep came out of Egypt. Who he was, none could tell, but he was of the old native blood and looked like a Pharaoh. The fellahin knelt when they saw him, yet could not say why. He said he had risen up out of the blackness of twenty-seven centuries, and that he had heard messages from places not on this planet. Into the lands of civilisation came Nyarlathotep, swarthy, slender, and sinister…”

          Now, doesn’t that sound like old Uncle Barack to you?

  12. Jewna says:

    This.
    Is.
    TERRIFYING!

  13. binxbinx says:

    scaryer than oprah comming at you with a box of condoms

  14. Roy says:

    I hate it when they say “Who is that in the picture? Tell us in the comments” when it obviously doesn’t matter.

    Ah, Southern girls. They may not be intelligent, but at least they have big boobies.

  15. Catguy says:

    This must be from one of the coasts… does not make any sense

    • rhorho says:

      Broad Brush Tour 2008 has now passed through the south and both major coasts. Anyone want to finish by trash talking the heartland?

      • lowly grunt says:

        Ohio was mentioned up above and yeah there are people there who would proudly wear this.

        • lowly grunt says:

          Oh, wait, you mean like Kansas or Oklahoma or Nebraska or Colorado or the Dakotas or Texas? There, too!

          • rhorho says:

            Painting with a broad brush. First the caption, now Catguy sweeps the east and west coasts. I just thought someone would want to make a pointless, sweeping generalization about the rest of the U.S., to tidy up and finish the work.

            • eddiepscetti says:

              Seriously, there are some things about the South (everything below the Mason-Dixon line and east of New Mexico) that are naturally tacky, but even THIS goes against what is socially acceptable. My feeling on this is it’s probably someplace like Wisconsin or Michigan (and if you’re from there, sorry, it’s not an insult.)

              • pittypat says:

                oh yes it is lol

              • rhorho says:

                Correction, Eds: Fort Worth is widely known as “Where the West Begins.” Only half of Texas is the South, so you Westerners get AMARILLO!
                Bwahahaha!!!

                • eddiepscetti says:

                  Oh hell no, no way, no how, no amount of begging! If anything, Amarillo can shuffle right off to Oklahoma with the next wind storm.

                • Uncle Fester says:

                  I think, based on the Deneke case, Amarillo is ‘South’ in the most perjorative sense of the word… Primitive, nasty, parochial, and just intelligent enough to be corrupt and venal in equal measure…

                  When members of the jury admit on exit that if all the elements of the case were the same, but Deneke was in the dock rather than the morgue, it would have been a death penalty verdict rather than probation, you have some SERIOUSLY sick people… but the lad who killed him was a ‘good’ boy… his pastor and his football coach both said so… Ninja in a Caddy… yeah right… Dustin Camps… a ‘good’ boy…

                  • eddiepscetti says:

                    Amarillo is literally in a world of it’s own. And the only reason for that is the smell of the place has caused massive, collective brain damage. People I know who have moved to Amarillo are never heard from again. Not that they disappear completely, just their mind goes on holiday. It’s the only way to cope with the place.

                    • rhorho says:

                      I wish Texas would exercise it’s constitutional right to split into five states. It would be a relief to lose the association with that place! I’m even willing to give the entire panhandle to Oklahoma, so it can become a proper “red square” state. That’s AFTER you get your house sold, of course… ;o)

              • Danbala says:

                Heheh. Yeah. Seriously, you could find someone like this just about anywhere. The fact that it’s Palin (or Fey…) on the shirt makes it highly unlikely to be outside the US, of course, but other than that, this woman could be from anywhere. Odd, tacky groups are, alas, an international phenomenon.
                .
                I’ve seen people looking worse walking the streets in Sweden, for sure. For some reason, changing clothes before you leave your home is not seen as any form of necessity here, for instance. So yeah, just from the looks and the style (or rather lack thereof) I’d say she could be anything. :o P

  16. Zed says:

    HA, it very likely could be the WALMART in ANCHORAGE, ALASKA!!!
    lol.

  17. NorthAveBoy says:

    I’m sorry, do you know how many Obama stickers I see on cars in Atlanta?

    A rediculous number. Hardly any McCain ones. Obama lost by a VERY small margin in GA.

    You other states can fight your own battles.. I’m just sayin.

  18. CINDY says:

    Anyone else notice the random dude in the back with the Ayumi Hamasaki shirt? It made my day. =)

  19. Frank says:

    That shirt is kind of frightening…

    I think I’m gonna have nightmares about it tonight… O_o

  20. Anna says:

    The real question is, where in the world did the dude in the back get an Ayumi Hamasaki (circa Rainbow) t-shirt? (Also, godawful)

  21. The Crapture says:

    I’m gonna differ with the captioner, that lady either has to be from Texas or Oklahoma, she has that look of someone who occupies those bizzare stretches of geography where the last strains of the Confederate mindset cross paths with the sun-baked craziness of the West and the end result is almost apocalyptically creepy

  22. froofrou says:

    One day, when Seth is old and in a nursing home and can’t fight back, I’m going to find him and put that shirt on him :o )

  23. Gnet says:

    Such large head, such tiny brain.

  24. Jae says:

    Palin is from Alaska. We don’t have to claim her. Alaska is North. We are not responsible for this one. (For once.)

  25. beingwyrd says:

    Ok, so no one is going to mention the scary ogre behind her?

    is that a dead girl on his shirt?

    now HE is scary.

  26. Tamilee says:

    One does not simply walk into the south either. To be really southern one must be born here, and it helps if your grandpa was too.
    She is NOT from the south, (no true southern belle would be caught wearing a political shirt after Sept.) I’d say she’s from la-la-land, that special far away land….ya know….California.

    • I assure you, she wasn’t well-liked in CA. Only in the few very Republican pockets.

      • raelalt says:

        Could be Bakersfield. I swear there is a tear in the time-space continuum out there and the distance between Oklahoma and California is warped, which resulted in Bakersfield.

    • Lynnda says:

      [i]One does not simply walk into the south either.[/i]

      Not to mention one should call first and be extended a gracious invite which one must, with equal grace, accept. Then, and only then, can one spend an afternoon inside a house sharing smiles and polite conversation with a group of people who, in reality, hate you and refer to you with the phrase “bless his/her heart” when you’re not around.

      Only in the south can you have two “friends” for 15 years who secretly cannot stand each other.

  27. The guy behind her has a real weird shirt on, too.

  28. m00finsan says:

    I dunno. My part of the South is relatively K-Mart free…

  29. toxftw says:

    scary on too many levels to list them all…

  30. Melody says:

    Lousy caption. Stupidity knows no region…or country.

  31. wtf says:

    please, don’t insult the south like this.

  32. Jochi says:

    =[ Poor deluded lady..

  33. lance says:

    my god! It’s a nice close.

  34. Eee says:

    That shirt is scary, but I’ve seen women like that in the southern part of Illinois. No fair blaming the southern states for her…
    Unless you’re going to have another pic captioned “The North, it’s like Mordor with a Whole Foods”.

    • dropping in says:

      Whole Foods was born and raised in AUSTIN, TX…and I love them. One of the only things that got me through 6 years of living in that crappy state (for me- not everyone- some really great pp like it there- that I love- can’t quite figure it out- but I love them and they love TX), so BACK OFF WHOLE FOODS—seriously, I can’t handle random pp criticizing something I support on a random website…oh wait I can. Never mind, By WF started and is primarily expanded in, the South too….sort of as a balance to Walmart IMO.

  35. Retaba says:

    I can’t believe no one said this, maybe I missed it? She looks like of like Scotty from StarTrek >.>

  36. tyler says:

    Thank you melody. How about you just make fun of Republicans and leave us southern folk alone? Ignorant Americans exist everywhere. Damn yankees.

  37. Peaches says:

    OMG That’s My Mom!
    I’m so embarrassed!!
    *hides face in shame*

    (ps not all southerners are heter republicans ~ that’s why it’s called a GROSS generalization right tyler?)

  38. wundawomun says:

    I LOL’d too hard at this.

  39. Ms. Valit says:

    So, is that a man or a woman? the face says “woman” but the chest seems to say “man”…also…Palin airbrushed like she was a gangsta rapper or something makes me laugh.

  40. Ben says:

    I wonder if that guy with the Hamasaki Ayumi shirt even knows who she is…

  41. Dana says:

    Wal-Mart. WAL-MART. GET IT RIGHT, YANKEES. :P

    • jules says:

      Us yanks have Wal-Mart too. That trampling incident happened in NY. Not sure if we still have K-Mart, all the ones near philly (that I know of anyway) were deleted when the company almost folded a few years ago.

  42. 57yo says:

    Unfortunately, the South is far more than Mordor witha K-mart.

    If it was Mordor, there’d be a way to get rid of it…

    *An exasperated resident of the southern United States since I was three. And surprisingly, you don’t get used to it, it just becomes more and more painful every moment.

  43. Sari says:

    What’s with the redneck in the Ayumi Hamasaki shirt? D:

  44. cherryflosser says:

    So…….how do we know that’s the south again?

  45. tsfiles says:

    Before you display regional bigotry, it might be nice to learn how to actually punctuate first.

    • OhMyGoodness says:

      I sincerely recommend that you read Lynn Truss’s “Eats, Shoots and Leaves”, taking particular note on her chapter concerning the humble comma. Will you accept regional bigotry then?

  46. AC says:

    I’m slightly depressed by the lack of Lord of the rings geekiness on this page…

  47. MEH. says:

    I’ve always thought Palin is totally hot…and thought “this is the only way that chick could get me to cum on her tits.” And then I was completely ashamed at how completely disgusting and immature my little joke was…but equally proud at how much that dumb joke made me chuckle.

  48. DarthxXxNeji says:

    awww come on thats not fair that crazy $%^&@ is from ALASKA :(

  49. BamaSlama says:

    It doesn’t matter. There’s plenty more where she came from…heheheh
