Mm, America’s Sexiest President since 2008. Sorry Jefferson.
Since 2008? So you’re saying Bush is sexier?
Anyway, I kind of think he looks a bit weird. His arms are too lanky for his torso.
I wouldn’t throw him out of bed for eating crackers though.
No, I’m saying he wasn’t president until 2008.
he’s *not* president in 2008. he gets that title in jan 2009…
Fail squared.
On seddah, not on you shortright.
I’m Canadian. What the hell do I care? Besides, I was going on him being voted in. He’s currently the president elect so it still applies. Fail on you.
Well… considering that whatever America does causes ripples across the entire world, you probably should care. Good and bad ripples that is.
*shrugs*
No wonder the whole world thinks Americans are assholes.
No wonder we blame canada.
My favorite joke about Canada is as follows:
If Canada didn’t suck so much, the USA would fall down on Mexico!
*crickets*
I love Canadians. They go great on pizza…
…with a penis.
*more crickets*
Tough crowd.
… I don’t use that kind of ham on my pizzas…
When I heard it, it was “If Oklahoma didn’t suck so
much, Texas would be in Mexico.”
Depends on your juxtaposition, I suppose…
You -must- be Quebecois…
IF they’re not, I think it’s the equivalent of saying their mother give drugs to 8th graders and procures young girls to work the Dock Road when they’re hooked…
If they are, they need to work on their disdain. That was no where near up to standard.
Causes nipples?
Sorry, caught up in the moment there. = )
Somewhere I’m missing how shortright correctly pointing out how you were wrong is a fail on her part. In addition to your other fails I’d like to add a logical reasoning fail and a projection fail. Your sash and tiara will arrive by mail.
Quit trolling.
Good advice, care to take it?
yeah and you can kiss me on the ellipses …
The ellipsis is my favorite form of punctuation. I have a soft spot for the semicolon, but it can’t quite match the ellipsis in style.
No wonder you fell so hard for me… It all makes sense now.
OMNOMNOMNOM…
Bwahahha.
You’re just jealous. The love between an evil warlord and his captive bride is special and you can’t handle it. :p
Jealous? Of course I am…
*adds armored condoms to Max’s supply list for next requisition run with blacksmiths.*
*injured tone* Well I TOLD him I would take the dentures out but he wouldn’t believe me. That’s the thing about evil warlords, they have trust issues.
That they do. They see one flesh devouring hole, they think they’ve seen them all.
I, of course, know nothing of such things as a humble servant. Yaaaaa, that’s what I am… *adds to note to make them ribbed armored condoms*
*whiney voice*
But then I can’t -feel- anything!
Well really, without the dentures it’ll only gum you a little bit, no need for extra precautions…
Pointing out when someone is being an antagonistic troll is trolling? My my, you must be one hell of a troll yourself.
Picking a fight with a person who is pointing out flaws in a debate…
Yes, that is trolling. Now you are trolling me. Good times.
I’m pretty sure … is in the troll baby name book. Its origins are greek, meaning “one who is too limited to create an actual name”.
But he’s so kewt! Just look at those dimples…*sigh*
That’s his ass, rho. I know it’s easy to mistake, as the dimples are in roughly the same places, but that’s not his face. THIS is his face *turns …… around*
*grabs chest; runs away screaming*
*sound of running footsteps fades*
*replaced by sound of retching*
Come on guys, that’s the best you can do? Weak.
So sorry we didn’t meet your expectations. We’ll try harder. We want to meet your needs ever so much, since you are a worthy contributor and deserve our respect.
Well you’re none of that to me, but thanks for the compliment!
Obvious stupid troll is obviously stupid. And a troll.
That was mean, froo. Now that my stomach is empty,
he looks cute again. Maybe if he would get a name,
we could talk to him and make friends. Maybe he can
make funny comments about LOLs with us. What say
you, froo?
I’m down with that. What if we put a little makeup on him *here*, and a little rouge *there* and dressed him in a LOLkitteh dress? What shall we name him?
Yum! I love the caption!
I wouldn’t throw him out of bed for eating crackers either.
How refreshing. In SO many ways.
Uh…
fail fail fail fail fail
He coulda been shot before he got inaugurated, dumbass.
Come on. It’s rhetorically acceptable to pin the election year as the start of a presidency. It always has been.
he was elected then, everyone knows what seddah means, no-one likes
a smart arse =)
True now, but I wouldn’t mind seeing that shot of the 1965 version of McCain. (linked under my name…)
In uniform too! Nice! Not bad, Johnny boy… not bad.
Hmm. Not my type.
True. John McCain is clearly no viking.
Owen Wilson-Steve Martin look?
George Eades’ slightly homely brother was what I thought…
*sigh* Ya know, sometimes I am painfully unsurprised at how tacky the news business can be.
Let me guess: It’s tacky because it’s not a photo of a topless woman?
I actually would say the same if a woman had won and they were blasting us with picks of her in a bikini. I’ve seen these before on CNN and somehow I don’t think Obama’s HI adventure was worth coverage. Then again, perhaps I am projecting and empathizing that being camera stalked on vacation would annoy me and seems tacky when done to anybody else.
So don’t pay me any heed and the assumption was nice too. So nice try on the guess but I do have more depth than a tablespoon.
*pics…
Damn typing fails.
What? Come on. We totally needed to know what kind of sandwich Obama had!
I know right? Because if we don’t take pictures and report his life every second, the terrorists win. Or we might actually be presented with something worthwhile. Or some random combination thereof.
The terrorists will win something worthwhile?
THE TERRORISTS WILL GET OBAMA’S SAMMICH!
Not if I eat it for the sake of Freedom first!!! Stand back Mr. Prez Elect, I have my patriotic duty to attend. *eats Obama’s sammich while he looks confused*
Now I dash to freedom!!! *flees with Secret Service men in pursuit*
Given this clarification, I totally understand and generally agree. Tacky might not have been the best word to convey what you meant, but I’m not sure what would be most clear. Intrusive, voyeuristic, shallow?
Tacky… It worked for me. Cheap, pointless, just for a buzz of entertainment. Tabloids are tacky to me and this has tabloid wannabe written all over it. I went with the word that worked in my humblest of views.
And YET, if someone had fired off a shot of Hillary Clinton in a bikini, you’d all be sitting here talking about her chicken wings. Gimme a break.
Even with us having a laugh over it, we still wouldn’t call it newsworthy. So do you have a point or what?
I was making my remarks because I saw this as a news story on CNN. That is my issue. Pictures, smictures. Still isn’t news.
actually no, my opinion for heads of state in swim wear spans all genders, it’s not news. I don’t think we live in a perfect world where paparazzi will ceast to exist, but i prefer it’s kept to the professions where image matters over mind. We don’t need half naked pictures of govenors, kings, presidents, senators, or anything like that.
So if someone fired off a picture of Hillary Clinton in a bikini, I’d still be questioning the turn that media is taking toward our government. nice try though
And THEN we’d laugh at her chicken wings. Good times.
Can’t we do both at the same time? Or is that multitasking too much?
Well, it’s like when your friend falls flat on their face while ice skating. For politeness sake you must first inquire as to their general well being. Next, when you find that all is well, you laugh your ass off with much pointing and ridicule.
Ah…
So you’re not supposed to do both then… >_>
Well damn…
I agree. The tabloid obsession of celebrity annoys the f* out of me.
He went on vacation in Hi. Great. I hope he had a good time. Still none of my business.
*with*
preposition fail!
I am setting myself up here, but don’t you think that knowing he’s a media figure and knowing that people are trying to get pictures of him, if he had actually wanted to have a private vacation in Hawaii he could have arraigned for it? From what I heard, the SS were using seaweed to form a perimeter around where they were vacationing……..aren’t there mountains and volcanoes and secluded places on the island that are breathtaking and stunning and just as good for vacationing as a public beach, and that can only be reached by helicopter? Forgive me for thinking that he was asking for it. Or begging for it.
It’s probably planned. Obama needs to show that he’s a normal guy from time to time, just as Bush was often photographed in Crawford and at the Bush compound in Kennebunkport. It seemed alright then, right? Why isn’t it alright now?
I’m not saying it’s not right. But people shouldn’t cry about him getting caught on camera as it was more than likely planned. The Clintons were caught on camera ‘dancing on the beach’ like a week before the Lewinski thing broke, so it’s par for the course. Photo ops are just that: ops. No more, no less. If a media figure gets photographed by a pap, they shouldn’t cry about it, nor should their ‘fans’. There are ways around it if you’re serious about not getting pictures taken.
Did I miss something? Are people upset because someone snapped a photo of him? Politics aside, Richard Nixon was widely criticized for having “candid” photos made of himself on a beach, wearing a suit and dress shoes. The photos make him look awkward and out of place. Here, Obama looks natural and normal, so fine. /politics aside
There are still people out there who think he’s a Muslim terrorist, so it behooves him to work on presenting a “normal guy” image. I don’t know why anyone’s upset. Do you?
I dont’ know why anyone is upset, but here are some quotes from further up:
“I’ve seen these before on CNN and somehow I don’t think Obama’s HI adventure was worth coverage. Then again, perhaps I am projecting and empathizing that being camera stalked on vacation would annoy me and seems tacky when done to anybody else.”
“Intrusive, voyeuristic, shallow?”
“He went on vacation in Hi. Great. I hope he had a good time. Still none of my business.”
“The tabloid obsession of celebrity annoys the f* out of me.”
Seems people were irritated that the pictures were taken at all, even though it is obvious that they were MEANT to be taken. Any good public figure knows how to work the cameras, and Obama is no different. It just means he’s good at portraying the right image, a must when you’re the next leader of the free world.
I’m often mistaken, but imo those comments seem to be more “why is this NEWS?” and less “leave Britney alooone!” I think the line about being “camera stalked is true with most celebrities, but, as you indicated, not likely with Obama. From what I’ve seen (as an outsider) of Secret Service operations, those guys don’t flock around!
OT: The USSS operations I saw were in Waco, when H.W. dedicated the Floyd Casey Stadium in 1988.
LOL, I’d love to see the YouTube post of ‘LEAVE OBAMA ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!!!!’ hehehe.
I’m putting on extra water soluble mascara
right now!
It is definitely “news”. Certainly more than half the “news” that coms out of California is pictures of famous people.
I don’t think so. I live in CA & most news has nothing to do with celebrities. It cracks me up when people think like that. Or when they learn you live in CA they ask how many movie stars you know.
It’s okay, when I say I am in IA, people think I live in a cornfield and care about football.
When I say I’m in TN, they ask if I have shoes and indoor plumbing…
When I tell people I lived in Alaska as a child they ask if I lived in an igloo.
When people hear I’m from Texas, they usually
think I have to bat away tumble weeds to get
to my horse for a ride into town.
I guarantee that people think Rho and I ride horses to work.
I will admit that whenever I talk to somebody from HI, I want to ask if they are from ComonaIwannaLaiU. I suppress the urgue luckily but dammit, it is still there.
Wait a darn minute here: Froo and Rho DON’T ride in some sort of posse to work?! WTF is this sh*t? Thanks for ruining my fun ladies. :p
Well as the daughter of a military man, don’t you ride to work in some kind of battle hummer with a rifle on your back?
Naw, Charlie was in intel. That means I get spy gear.
Oooh, and night vision goggles?
Yeah, and the poison pen, and the closet full
of evening attire???
Rho, unrelated, but for you: LINKY
Also unrelated: THANKS A LOT, SETH. I’m now addicted to ANOTHER site that will eventually get me fired
LMAO!! I wonder if that’s where one of last
night’s trolls got “…” for a name.
I thought I detected a certain brain dead quality. Also, yes to pens, evening wear, night goggles, and some things that are still classified so I can’t discuss them in an internet forum.
I never said most of the news in California was celebrities, just that most of the news that comes out is.
.
There are people who think I ride a kangaroo to work and have a pet koala.
Think of the Simpsons episode in Australia, then ignore everything in it.
Conversely, South Park’s Canadian portrayal
couldn’t have been more accurate.
You mean they all have detached heads above the jaw? I’m impressed.
xkcd black hat guy FTW!
When people hear I’m from Connecticut they…
um…
they think I…
*sigh*
I was gonna try and help you out slan, but I got nothing. Sorry pal.
Gotta admit, in some of the smaller towns it’s not unusual to see someone on a horse at the Sonic drive-in….
re Connecticut: STEPFORD WIVES!!
“From what I heard, the SS were using seaweed to form a perimeter ”
`
For God’s sake, get back! They’ve got SEAWEED!!!
*screams*
I haven’t seen Obama beach pictures in real news… However, I saw him twice in “Best Beach Bodies” section of magazines lately… He’s not THAT great. Is Hollywood running out of hot guys?
How many of his competitors were 47 years old?
Very true. I give the man his credit. He looks better at 47 than I do at 27 and definitely better than I will at 47.
I’d love to see the comments that would be flying here if there was a shot of Obama and Rahm doin’ the old “Top Gun” beach volleyball routine…
I seem to remember a doctored photo of Ms Palin with shotgun and bikini making its way down here – there were complaints, but only that it wasn’t an accurate description. Tacky? Some people like tacky…
Point taken but I don’t recall CNN picking up the picture of Palin like that and calling it worth reporting on… Eh, perhaps I am just picky.
Though, I’d say, the shot of Palin with the bikini and shotgun seemed pretty rigged. Or rather, it felt more like a pre meditated shot than this, which more resembles a paparazzo shot.
That pic you’re referencing was not only rigged, it was a complete photo shop. If you go to snopes.com they debunk it rather quickly.
The link under my name shows the before-and-after of the photo.
It’s from froo’s favorite website. I don’t know how she missed it…
Har-de-har. Here’s one for you on your favorite website, dealing with the staged pictures in Hawaii……..
Rush Limbaugh: “Drudge got hold of this picture and also got hold of a similar one of Vladimir Putin. He’s running an online poll asking people to vote on who looks more buff, and so far Putin’s winning 18,000 to 12,000 for Obama, and I’m kind of surprised, I thought Obama would run away with this, given the popularity of The Messiah. So now, ladies and gentlemen, it’s not just what he says but how he says it, but now how he looks when he says it. And the Drive-Bys are having Obasms over this.”
Obasms? Obamagasms? Is Rush jealous???
hehe, probably. But that’s beside the point. I love that Drudge is running a contest exactly stating what we’ve been taling about here, is Putin sexier than Obama? hehehe.
Gack, TALKING. Not ‘taling’. I’m not even sure what ‘taling’ is.
Putin’s has that malevolent, skin-crawly kind of sexy. Obama has that really-nice-guy-you-would-like-as-a-neighbor sexy.
It doesn’t surprise me in the slightest that Drudge fans would vote the way they did. Are you shocked?
No, LOL. I’m not shocked at all, especially in light of the conversations we have in here all the time. Obama just doesn’t appeal to me physically, though. You’ve seen my type, hehe. Obama’s a little too boyish through the frame to suit my tastes.
It’s funny. PK wasn’t around back then, but I somehow
suspect that W wouldn’t have gotten the same treatment,
had a shirtless beach photo arisen.
That said, Putin’s got the scary-sexy thing going on, but
I’m taller than he is. Is that shallow enough?
Bush isn’t exactly even CLOSE to sexy. And I’m a dyed in the wool Purple Lizard Republican.
-
And yes. It’s shallow. Now go sit down. And take those heels off!
The dude’s 5′ 5″ / 1.65 m, so you’re asking me to take my heels off *literally?* …my actual body-part heels?
Wow, you Baptists are serious folk!
It’s the constant disappointment of the Apocalypse not arriving that does it… despite electing Neo-cons.
Damn thing was supposed to be here last week. *bangs watch on table* Damn apocalypse watch. I was swindled. *mutters under breath*
I hereby award you a partial internet… that raised a small smile at Fester Towers…
My apocalypse watch has been stuck at five minutes to midnight for almost two years now.
My Mayan apocalypse watch keeps excellent
time…
But only for a few more years…
@Pi – the Apocalypse watch has been stuck between 10 to and 5 to midnight since before Professor Bronowski died…
And I don’t much expect that to change in the near future.
Fester, unless there’s someone keeping a separate one I wasn’t aware of, the Doomsday Clock was moved as recently as 17.01.2007 (link). Moved from 2353 to 2355 in light of the North Korean situation plus new climate change data.
But what about Captain Kirk? How is he going to enter all of his Captain’s Logs if the Apocalypse has already happened?????
We survive the Apocalypse, of course. Like a movie, it was mostly hype.
“How’d you die?”
“How’d I die? IN THE MOTHER F*CKING APOCALYPE!!!”
Damn it, apocalypse^ What I wrote sounds like a person with really big lips.
I died in traffic during the Apocalypse. I was three days from retirement and going to have a threesome on the weekend. Was going to marry both of the girls in a handfasting.
Stupid Apocalypse, couldn’t even kill me with a fireball. Nooooo, just had to be some old bat behind the wheel trying to cash in her lottery ticket… *grumbles*
There is nothing sexy about malevolent and skin crawly. Not both together. Malevolent by itself, maybe. Too bad Putin’s both. I suspect he “won” ’cause he’s the white guy.
People still take notice of that tired old junkie? Quite how he finagled a suspended sentence is beyond me, especially as he was found in possession of MORE prescribed drugs in someone else’s name. Having said that, they were viagra tabs, rather than his usual weapon of choice. Just in another man’s name…. a ‘Mr Tumnus’ perhaps?
“they were viagra tabs, rather than his usual weapon of choice. Just in another man’s name…. a ‘Mr Tumnus’ perhaps?”
`
?? I thought it was spelled “tumescent”.
you have viagra tabs in the name of another man when you’re on probation for falsifying your name on prescriptions and they don’t charge you?
Means when you were packing up from the motel you were in, you picked up the other guy’s viagra and could prove it…
‘We had a weekend of wild, drug fuelled, gay sex, and I picked up his viagra… ooops’
and the word I think is turgid when applied to erectile tissue.
Well, he’s been married like 5 times, maybe that’s why none of the marriages stuck.
-
“Honey, I’m off for a drug-filled gay sex binge. I’ll call later.”
… That was almost enough to make me choke on my drink. Luckily my paranoia gives me restraint at work.
He’s got some pretty good he-boobies for such a skinny guy.
“manboobs”, not heboobs!
“barackrack”
Moobs?
That was my first thought. Needs more over the shoulder boulder holder.
Finally! I was worried Vladimir Putin would be the only sexy world leader.
Mm, and sexy Putin is.
You got that right…
Da. <3 Vlad!
I’m so glad I’m not alone in my Putin lust. Y’know, Emanuel in this shot wouldn’t be bad either. What can I say? I have a thing for dudes with power
“Power is the great aphrodisiac.”
Henry Kissinger, as quoted in The New York Times (19 January 1971)
(Thanks to: Wikipedia: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Henry_Kissinger )
I would say this too, except when I first saw him I was like, “damn that guy is sexy and I don’t know why.” Then I check to see who it was. Nice surprise. Sexiness and power.
He puts the “dick” in dictator.
Beach bunny ‘bama is gonna be tested early and probably more than from one source. Xinhua (China), Russian media and of course Middle Eastern rags all cranking up the volume. Hopefully he will stand up to them.
TRUST ME, this a-hole isn’t Adonis either! YUK!!!!
Damn, but that man is good looking.
Hence the caption of him and his wife, with the caption saying, “Face it: we’re the only political couple whom you could bear to see naked”.
;D
*gags at image of Michelle nekkid*
-
*runs away*
Now, now, now…
Didn’t we determine just a few lols ago that W himself was all ready to grab a piece of that bootay?
This picture ain’t too pretty either…
Ok- someone has to say it…..”Shopped!”
Commence poo flinging fest.
“staged”, not ’shopped.
Definitely ’shopped.
=== ()()()()()()
Attempt at drawing a flung poo fail…
Someone MUST be able to do better…
Nice jiggly man-boobies, Barry.
Haha, obviously you’re too fat/boney to ever have had well toned muscles if you think those are manboobs.
those do not seem to toned. better than most, but not toned.
agreed. they probably have had better days. but the sexy factor is still there. yumm ;x
Probably fairer to say toned but not buff…
i admit, he is one sexy ass man
Hot. I issue a challenge for some RPS with Putin.
This idea has merit. Throw in some baby oil and I think we can start talking to sponsers.
YUCK! and this is better how?
I shall nick-name him “Shaft”.
Not because of who he looks like, but what we shall probably receive from him and the IRS soon.
You may be pleasantly surprised, but we’ll never hear of it if you are…
The reason “this shot of McCain is NOT pretty” is because he was a tortured war hero. Go ahead and read his Wikipedia page. See if you’d like that done to you, while denying the oppurtinity of freedom for renouncing your nation and making sure you were the last POW in the camp to leave. Then read about how his arms were broken so many times, he can’t lift them above his head anymore. And that’s just a summary.
Y’know, I won’t dispute that McCain got the sh!t beat out of him by the Vietnamese, that it shows some spirit that he refused to pull strings to come home earlier than his fellow prisoners (the only time he didn’t exercise the privilege of his father’s rank, from what I can tell). But what makes me pause to think is: how do we define a hero? Where is that bar and how do we set it?
Are you a hero simply for taking a beating? Seems pretty shaky.
Are you a hero for getting hurt to spare other people from suffering? Weeeeeell, if you are, then the GOP have a lot of groveling to do to make it up to John Kerry and Max Cleland. And if so, did McCain’s determination to stay at the Hanoi Hilton relieve anyone of suffering? Did any of his mates get out any sooner because of him? There’s no conclusive answer there.
In short, are you a hero for what’s done to you, or for what you’ve done? We have to be careful about what terms mean, or else they don’t mean anything.
Not to mention that is SO besides the point. What does torture have to do with swimsuit shots? My grandmother wasn’t a war hero but that doesn’t mean I want to see her in a bikini.
Ya, we aren’t talking about quality of character. We are talking about who we want to see in a swimsuit…
Wyde is crazy like that. I imagine someone could be like, “McCain doesn’t believe in abortion” and he’d be like, “For the love of God, the man can’t lift his arms above his head! How about we torture you and see how YOU feel about women’s rights?!”
I now have that Jibjab video about Kerry and Bush where Kerry keeps mentioning his purple hearts…
Doh…
Add “stuck in my head” to that. Stupid typing fail.
I KNEW IT!!!! HE’S WHITE!!!!
This shot isn’t pretty either.
Ugh, Obama is NOT attractive. He may be physically fit, but he is not pretty.
I always thought he was kinda fat…
