NEW WHITE HOUSE SPORT: *SYNCHRONIZED FACEPALMING*
(Barack Obama & Joe Biden)
picture: dunno source, via our lol builder. lol caption: heatherjlc
To be followed in later years by synchronized head-desking.
Followed by synchronized keyboard-smashing and synchronized Blackberry-tossing.
Rho or Frou – Clinton smear, Aisle 3… repeat Clinton smear,Aisle 3… you may want re-breathers for this one…
Whuh? I don’t see it.
Unless you’re taking “head-desking” to new and dirty places it wasn’t meant to go.
Keyboard smashing and blackberry tossing were allegations about the Clintons leaving the Whitehouse…
Clearly Biden just let one rip, and Obama is trying to ignore it. Any other idea is stupid. Like you. Douchebag
Why thank you…
I give them a 9!
Slightly less popular now that Bush has left.
More popular now than ever. Under Bush it was synchronized Alfred E. Neuman impressions: “What, me worry?”
Haha.
What is this? A post-election Obama-related meme that gets a 5!?
It’s a miracle!
(and pretty funny too)
It looks like they may be allergic to the Executive office…
it’s just a plant allergy, you know they used to keep bushes in there. It’ll get better after the room has a chance to air out.
Oh right! I heard those bushes are among the top allergens in the country. Most people can’t stand to be around them for more than two seconds before they start experiencing symptoms.
it might be a placebo effect in some cases. I’ve seen someone start frothing at the mouth just at the mention of bushes. it’s such a strange allergin really.
bush hay-fever allergy
alright, who did literal have to pay off to get all these on the front page?!
There was an off involved but I don’t think it was pay so much as it was jerk…
She offed a jerk? Goot.
i was thinking something along these lines too. but i was gonna ask who she blew…
Wasn’t me, that’s for sure…
Of course not, you have no real influence here…
on a further note… i just went to the voting page and the only lol there was from literal…
Also, the fact that Literal is a very prolific producer of lols contributes to the number she gets on the front. The fact that a lot of them are quite funny doesn’t hurt, either!
And I just submitted another one; maybe this one will turn up in voting. I’m starting to feel like all mine are just going down a black hole.
Thank you, dissimilitude. You are truly an honorable person.
I wouldn’t take the teasing about using questionable means to get lols posted too seriously, hon. It’s just that; teasing. You make good lols…they get voted up. I think it’s that simple.
Why must you hurt me with the truth?
because, deep down inside… he really loves you. remember back in elementary school, the girl who was the meanest to you at recess was the one who secretly liked you.
He knows I want him in sordid, depraved,
Marquis-De-Sade-Would-Blanche ways… he keeps turning
me down…
thus proving my point about the meanest girl at recess…
I was agreeing… but he doesn’t want me… no taste!
I just know my limits.
I know… there’s only so much mindless ecstasy a boy can take…
Wow. Thanks.
Nope. Sorry to burst your bubble.
One can only assume they keep finding files the last lot forgot to shred…
“THEY DID WHAT?”
This made me laugh
Well at least these two have the smarts to see when somethings going pear-shaped and to admit their mistakes and correct them. The last lot would just Loudly announce that everything was going according to plan and push on regardless
The ‘Are You Being Served?’ Young Mister Grace School of Governance…. gotta love it…
Problem is, people don’t like to be told ‘It’s going to hell in a hand basket…’ regularly, even when it’s true…
wtf? their contacts were acting up… they didn’t have some grandiose we’re honest and they’re not moment…
Now, ya see where ya went wrong there? You implied politicians could be honest like it wasn’t a joke…
it is a joke…
It’s all a joke
Hey! What’s wrong with being pear-shaped?!
*swings hips*
*keeps spanking comments to self as well as hands*
keeping your hands to yourself usually *is* the problem. just sayin…
I usually find it best to assume that nobody wants my hands on them so I keep them to myself when around others. I also find that assuming wiggling hips are an invitation tends to lead to more lawsuits than good times.
Unless you’re a politician, a police man, or a judge, they are an invitation to a lawsuit…
Precisely since I am none of those…
BOOT-TAY!
…to the head!
Now that I have your attention, could someone explain to me how i can get a personal avatar?

“Joe, the sound of that woman’s voice gives me a splitting headache…”
Sorry Barry, what did you say? My head is thrumming….
No, it was taken when Daschle’s tax shenanigans went public.
“Jesus, Joe… don’t we have -anybody- in this party who pays taxes?”
Just because one guy is a slime ball who cheats on his taxes doesn’t mean the entire party is corrupt. The generalization was nice though.
Obama: Isn’t there someone we can nominate that didn’t break the law somehow?
Biden: I could name some conservatives…
*synchronized facepalm*
I thought you had to have at least one Oxycontin conviction to be conservative…
Or at least a semi-illegal sex scandal.
Dead girl or live boy, take your pick.
Leave Teddy Kennedy and Barney Frank out of this.
Conservatives get addicted to drugs prescribed by their physicians.
Liberals don’t need any stupid doctor telling them what to snort.
ah, the canard of ‘I once needed it…’ yeah, sure, whatever lets you vote in convicted junkies while pretending they’re not junkies, right?
….off a hookers ass.
Least the hooker isn’t dead…
….unless she takes a drive. Or a walk in the park.
that’s interns… but as I say, seems to be the pot calling the kettle black…
Addendum, play the long game on ‘moral high ground’ expect it to be an issue…
I refuse to deny that, considering that there are pots and kettles on both sides slinging names.
both sides?
I am on both sides… [link]
I’m saying that the Right’s view of drug dependency is a hypocrisy… they seem to want to play both ends… they need ot pick a position ans stick to it… Zero Tolerance or context is important for ALL.
Ok, I understand now. If you’re only talking about drug stuff, then yes, the Right has a lock on it. But sex scandals included, and you’ve got your typical congressman, regardless of side.
Of course, sex scandals are pretty much exected… again, however, one would expect a considerably stronger reaction from the self-proclaimed’ family values’ side, to the point of spitting and calling ‘Judas’ as opposed to ‘the drugs made him do it’ style apologia one commonly sees.
And as for the taxes, that’s just a matter of style. You get some Democrats who neglect to report items, you get some Republicans whose questionable income disappears offshore in a manner perfectly legal thanks to that amendment they slipped through without debate a few years before.
lol. nice one fester… i’d favorite that one too…
and I seem to remember there is a zero tolerance policy on the war on drugs.
The right seem to think it doesn’t matter how you get hooked, unless it’s one of their own… and then they usually buy their way to probation, rather than being nailed by Bubba three times a week…
Just saying, hypocrisy seems to be a watch word on this…
Hypocrisy – Highly addictive opium based drugs are prescribed routinely, while non-addictive cannabis remains illegal on a federal level, even as a medicine.
The point of having licenced Physicians is so they CAN
prescribe dangerous and addictive drugs. However, it’s
supposed to be managed… Seems the ‘prescription pain
killer’ brigade are somehow weaklings, since, tbh, I’ve been
stuck on all sorts of crap for pain, and simply walked away
without a backward glance once the course is done.
I’m nothing special. If I have the ability, then it’s something
wrong with them. Yet people still elect them, and respect
their opinions, when they really are impaired.
That’s odd because I’ve only ONCE in my life even been prescribed pain medication. That was Vicodin, and only 5 tablets after my wisdom teeth were removed. I’ve had broken bones, stitches, and surgery and have always been told “take some Tylenol when you get home”.
-
Maybe that’s because my parents are lower-middle class so our insurance probably didn’t cover prescriptions.
Very likely. I just got back from the pharmacist with amoxycilin for my 14
year old who has bronchitis. I paid $40 for 20 pills. I am glad to have them.
-
I was given percoset (percodan? long time ago) after my wisdom teeth
were removed. I slept like a baby. Which was okay until I needed to go back
to work at the hamburger stand and couldn’t take meds that would make
me fall face first into the fryer.
So, I took some left over coedine that was in the medicine cabinet and got
stoned off my butt. Work was great that night until I came back down and
was not only in pain again, but at work again. Bummer.
TBH, I’ve enver found opiates (Codeine et al) to be
much more than disassociative. Acetaminophen is
probably the most reliable for me, and that is
pretty weak.
I’ve found paracetamol to be practically inert, unless combined with something jovial like codeine or percodan.
Same here. Paracetamol tends to give me fever relief though, but for pain relief – meh.
Depends on the pain. When I lost a sliver of
jaw bone, opiates didn’t touch it yet simple
branded ‘Panadol’ did… Yet with TN, nothing
touched it until I was put on
anti-depressants.
They still keep it at bay.
Ibuprofen gel works best on the index finger
I once had all the joints dislocated in… the
old spiral fracture in it doesn’t act up…
It is why I almost never take pain medication. I’m crazy enough as is, I don’t need to get any worse. I am trying to remember what I took for my hand because I hardly took anything for it and we ended up tossing the meds because they expired months later…
–”I paid $40 for 20 pills.”–
For generic amoxicillin? You should think about changing pharmacies. In my opinion, you got badly ripped off. That’s something you should be able to get as a $4.00 generic at Kroger, WalMart, Target, etc. Which would be $36.00 you could spend on something else.
Like OxyContins
Codeine is the only thing that will keep me on my feet during the first day of my period. Which is a bummer, because codeine is just a little bit too good at numbing, not just the pain. Very good at it. :/

Well, up until yesterday, when I was lucky enough to try a ´new pain killer substance the other day, and for the first time ever I have found a non-prescription drug that actually has some effect on menstrual pain.
.
Of course, prescription drugs usually end up being cheaper. :p
What was it that worked? In my experience (as witness and humble/terrified servant to the sufferer) the most effective cure has been really high quality chocolate truffles……
Something called “naproxen”. I’ve only had opportunity to try it this once, though, so I can’t say if the pain relief was a fluke or if I’ve actually been lucky to find “my drug”. I hope for the latter.
My personal OTC recommendation is ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, etc.) One day at work I took 4 (800 mg total) and then went back and took 3 more an hour later, stating that it would either make it better or kill me and I didn’t much care either way. (1400 mg is not enough to kill you, by the way, although if you took that level regularly you’d tear your stomach lining the hell up.) Anyway, it does seem to work for me.
@danbala: Naproxen’s good, too, that’s Aleve, etc. I still like the ibuprofen better.
I’ve heard tons of people swear to it, but it has not helped me.
But yeah, it seems to work for a lot of people.
My post was re the ibuprofen. I HATESSSS “Comments wont nest below this level”, my precioussss.
Naproxen sodium, US trade name Aleve. NSAID, same family as ibuprofen. Does work well but it can be harsh on your digestion. Not recommended to take more than twice a day and not for an extended period; given that one of the possible side effects is gastric bleeding I’d take that seriously.
Yep. Fortunately, my menstrual pains only show up for about 6, 7 hours a month. I can live with that. (And I have what we refer to as “plåtmage” which’d be a “stomach made of plate”, fortunately.)
On the bright side, when you’re dealing with menstrual issues, you generally have only a few days a month when it’s bad enough that you have to take a lot, so it’s less likely you’ll trash your digestive system than if you were taking it for something daily and chronic.
UNfortunately, I can’t proof read, and overuse some words sometimes. :p
(I can live with taking meds once a month, I mean. I can live with the pain too, or I’d be dead now, obviously, but I’d rather not have to.)
.
I do wish I’d learn to check my posts before hitting “Add comment”.
Good thing about Ibuprofen is that, if you have to, you can cocktail it with Paracetamol and Codeine… also, as long as you don’t do it too often, you can take a double dose of Brufen (never double dose paracetamol… ever)
But has at least been decriminalized in some states.
It’s on its way Steve.
And while it’s true that weed isn’t physiologically addictive, it can be psychologically addictive, or at least habit forming.
Which is why I wonder at all those “This sleeping pill is non habit forming” since anything that alters your consciousness can be habit forming even if in a non-physical way.
Yeah, I don’t believe sleeping pills can be non-habit forming. Anything you do every single day at the same time is habit forming…like brushing your teeth!
Very, Very Hypocritical, The government will outlaw marijuana anytime,
But not Tobacco, No not that. They do not want to outlaw it because of
politics. Because Tobacco farmers and Factory workers will be out of
work. At least Marijuana is not as addictive as Tobacco, at least Marijuana d]
does not destroy your lungs, and cause Mouth Cancer. The war on drugs,
is a war on everything that the majority opposes. Well, that’s the way
America works, if they try hard enough.
I snorted a purple pixy stix back in 4th grade. I will never snort anything again. Ever.
My brain chem is odd enough for me not to want to mess… I blame an accident in my teens that left me trepanned…
I had purple snot for 2 days.
I bet you were the coolest kid in school for that time…
or did you waste it by doing it on a Friday evening…
… *curious*
You tried to let the evil spirits out, and missed?
accident on a flight of stairs.
what’s your excuse for being a creep, or was it simply nature made yo u that way.
I usually find your sort had an abusive mother…
You poor thing…
Actually, no offense was intended. It’s just that ancient cultures believed that headaches were caused by evil spirits, and that trepanation would release them and end the suffering.
People did it voluntarily.
Therefore the comment was intended as humorous.
Unreserved apologies… a case of mistaken Avatar…
I was in, shall we say, something of a hurry, and jumped down 6 step in a dark stairwell… I found an RSJ with the top of my head…
I was sort of thinking the same thing, but I was afraid of getting that reaction
Have a Bush LOL
Isn’t touching your face a sign that you just lied? Maybe it is your nose… oh wait… they are touching their noses. LIARS!!!
heheeee!!
They’re politicians… they lie… I’m not seeing the funny here…
I am glad there are others who think that too. There are a lot of people out there who forget that. Too many think he has a halo… I say: He isn’t a saint and his gestures are proving it!
The gestures prove nothing. Their selection of profession says it all.
I agree that anyone who wants to be a politician should automatically be disqualified from running for any office.
But there are some individuals out there who think people run for public office out of some desire to do good for thier community…and by some strange happenstance, one of those individuals (Obama) has made it to the Presidency… this is for them.
I think there’s some who initially do run for office out of a desire to serve their community and/or change things for the better; however, most of them are never going to get elected and the ones that do get elected are generally then either frustrated by the system or corrupted by power.
@dis – most of them never make it out of the city council…
.
.
cincinnatus has been dead for more than 2000 years…
he was the last honest politician…
Exactly, if they make it into the city council in the first place. In my city, I think there’s a requirement that you fail some basic ethics test to get on the coucil. In general, the decent people who are seeking to actually serve their constituents aren’t cutthroat enough to make it past, say, school board.
i think the school board is more cutthroat then the us senate… at least around here… the idea behind a school board is: let’s get a bunch of whiny parents in a room and have them decide how best to teach our children… it’s like giving soccer moms real power…
so, a near miss… I’d worry about 2012…
And ~~~~ just maybe one of them let a ‘poot’ and it was such a stinker that they were wiping the tears from their eyes ~~~~~ neither claiming responsibility. That’s the political way, isn’t it ~~~~~ not claiming responsibility for one’s actions ? Oh, and UF, you are making loads fo good sense on this one. Love it. Thanks.
Funny thing, what he was doing the other day sounded an awful lot like taking responsibility.
Hey, Joe! Try this – when you push on your eye just like this? You see red spots! Do it, do it!
dammit joe… your nose is growing from the lies… cover it like this. Heck, BO, my nose is red from being drunk.. I know how to cover it….
Are they practicing for synchronized face-huggers?
now, i’m not arguing, that just got me thinking of what is a politician. Forinstance is it any leader of a group of people or must they be elected? not much of a distinction if you think about it, even the pope was elected, just the particular leader I had in mind was the Dalai Lama, who…was the leader of tibet at least. So would he be a politician? perhaps I should stop getting distracted in my philosophy classes. I ponder too much.
curse you PK and your nesting fail. this went under the cincinnatus was the last good politician
Syncronized Farting…
Still fits…
