    Is this the new Milli Vanilli ?

  2. Alicia says:

    Dubya sure is working that thing. Strike a pose!

    • pittypat says:

      George W. Zoolander: he’s pretty sure there’s a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And he plans on finding out what that is.

    • the_original_shortright says:

      the outfit actually reminds me a bit of eddie izzards ensemble in his “dress to kill” dvd. so now i’m picturing george telling all of eddie’s “executive transvestite” jokes…

      • see the (link) to see the eddie outfit about which i’m speaking.

      • Jane St.Clair says:

        Now I’m picturing it too, only with George mixing up the punchlines. :/

        • the_original_shortright says:

          picture him getting them *right*. it’s WAY funnier.

          like the “would you like a cup of coffee” routine. imagine george tongue-molesting an invisible spoon talking about how he likes his women like he likes his coffee “strong and black and… with a spoon in them”. especially because it’s possible he’s MET the king of burundi! :)

          • I always preferred “crushed to a fine powder and drowned in boiling water”.
            Yeah, I have a taste for offbeat humor.

            • Or like how Jefferson liked his women/coffee. Dark and hand picked from a field…

              • We have a new champion of the coffee joke!
                Now I’m curious… was Jefferson a racist getting his kicks or a progressive practicing what he preached?

                • He was a man banging chics who were his personal property and thus no recourse.

                  While it is possible that all of them loved him, I have my doubts. He could have simply been a product of his times and lusts. Either way, there was a good chance that he was a rapist with access and opportunity.

                  If I was a man in a time where I could have servants whom I could get anything from, would I not have some kind of harem? As I am right now, I couldn’t despite all my jokes stating otherwise. I require a reciprocation I just couldn’t force.

                  However, do you fault somebody when they are a product of their culture or do you give them leeway because they were at least a few shades less nasty than others in their time?

                  That would be our great question today?

                  • Wow, that was poorly worded.

                    “That would be our great question this evening.”

                    Bad DWN, BAD. Use better grammar!

                    • Alicia says:

                      meh, i’ve seen worse grammar come from one of my professors before, haha, so you’re fine in comparison.

                  • Jane St.Clair says:

                    Interesting philosophical question…

                  • I’m always of the opinion that the only way to judge a person morally is from their own perspective.
                    Anyone who thinks they’re really a good guy is simply misguided, to one degree or another, and deserving of sympathy and guidance when possible.
                    I’m becoming less and less convinced that there is actually anyone of sound mind who doesn’t see themselves as on the side of truth, justice and right, somewhere deep down. But, if there is, they’re the only ones we get to condemn.
                    So long as you take the time to figure out what right and wrong mean to you, and do your best to live by that, you’re doing alright. There’s also a moral duty to look at those ideas critically, and adapt and develop them, but that’s secondary.

                    So, after the long-winded diatribe, I have to give a weak ‘I don’t know’. Yeah, I studied philosophy, and enjoyed it a bit too much. It became my duty to inflict it on the innocent.

                    • Now what if I think I am of sound mind but do not consider myself a really good guy but a guy doing what he can with the cards dealt him?

                      I simply worry about my family and friends. I have empathy for others but I can’t say that I go completely out of my way to help others, which I would find to be a way to be a “really good guy.”

                      As for infliction of philosophy, you will find that my mind makes me a willing masochist for such torture, carry on.

                      • It’s more about wanting to become good, and doing the best you can right now to both 1. be good and 2. become better.

                        Bad wording in that sentence on my part, I meant “they really think they are a good guy” not “they think they are a really good guy”. Inflated self-opinion is not normally a helpful trait when trying to act morally.

                        This is basically pared-down virtue ethics, with a modern slant allowing for a personal definition of virtue. It realy gets me down that people assume that right and wrong don’t matter if you can pick them yourself. Surely the personal stake makes it matter more?

                        I’ve always found the idea of objective values kind of pointless, which is why I lean on the value we can place on our own subjective ideas. Whether or not there is some perfect, objective idea of right and wrong out there, you’ll only have your own flawed percepton of it to work with anyway. Better to trust your own judgement, and work to improve that judgement so that it is deserving of trust.

                        • Objectively speaking, morals and values are subjective so there is a full stop there already. There isn’t a supreme idea of good. There is ethics but morals are more flexible than the women in my dreams…

                          So the idea is rather moot but people never get it. A society of cannibals would find it well and good or at least morally neutral to eat another human whereas my personal morals find it repellant to an extreme. However, ethically meat is meat, it is the matter of how you obtain said meat. Ethically, there wouldn’t be a problem with eating a passed on relative as long as you didn’t bring about their demise since they cannot be harmed after their death and if there was an expectation of said consumption after their demise.

                          So from the beginning, you are opposing something that doesn’t really exist, the concept of objective morals when morals are subjective by nature.

                        • It’s the idea of an objective foundation for morality that should be adhered to that I oppose. Foundationalism is sadly alive and well, and the basis for a lot of holier-than-thou moralizing that does no-one any good. When you give people permission to argue that one moral stance s superior to another, they grab it with both hands and don’t let go.
                          Sadly the idea of ’self -evident’ or ‘fundamental’ morals gets a lot of public backing, because of how we’ve evolved certain moral traits, and because it’s a psychological crutch to avoid accepting other cultures and beliefs.

                        • Yet the problem is that those descriptors are for ethical ideals not moral ideals, least in a logical sense. Wording, however, is easily blundered as people have a tendency to think they are the same.

                          Pretty much boils down to people believing in an easy route out and then defending it with the same strength that should be used to finding a better way.

                        • Exactly. People thinking that their set of morals are the answer to all the problems of ethics. It’s ben awhile and my terminology is rusty, never was that into ethical theory.
                          There’s no such thing as a perfect answer to any philosophical problem; we can only try and work on the ones we have to make them as good as possible. When people lose sight of this, it causes problems.

                        • Glad we could talk that into a circle of agreement. :D

                    • slaggingham says:

                      What if I think I’m actually a selfish bastard who’s amoral at best and downright gleefully evil at worst, but I’m at least trying to put that fact to use towards the general good?

                      I mean, it’s like I say: “Fluffy Bunnies never defeated Godzilla. If you must defend yourself from Dragons, it’s good to have at least one Dragon on your side. I aim to breathe some fire.”

                  • PortlandMark says:

                    “He was a man banging chics who were his personal property and thus no recourse.”

                    I’d like to point out that white women were also regarded as being the property of their husbands. Okay, granted, they couldn’t be sold, but they still had no rights to their own bodies. Kind of like in Afghanistan today.

                    • slaggingham says:

                      Pity Afghanistan seems to be rather poorly apportioned with Jeffersons at the moment.

                      In any case, I’d always head that Jefferson’s excuse for not freeing his slaves was that they weren’t “ready for it,” as he believed that a newly-freed, uneducated, cultureless, propertyless people would have no sense of community and no real chance of “making it” and would become a perpetually poor and criminally-inclined underclass.

                      • I am sure the rape without chance of escape was a better option in his eyes… Heh.

                        @Portland Mark: Good point.

                      • PortlandMark says:

                        “In any case, I’d always head that Jefferson’s excuse for not freeing his slaves was that they weren’t “ready for it,” as he believed that a newly-freed, uneducated, cultureless, propertyless people would have no sense of community and no real chance of “making it” and would become a perpetually poor and criminally-inclined underclass.”

                        Thom Hartmann points out that the legal and economic realities of the time were against Jefferson as well. It wasn’t possible to just say, “Okay, y’all are free. Go on out and live a good life.” The state had to be paid for the slave’s warrant of freedom, and even legally freed slaves faced a number challenges that made it likely they would be turned into slaves by some other landowner, especially if they lacked the financial resources to hire a lawyer.

                  He was a captive in those days moral values. One could call them traditional..

      • Alicia says:

        i LOVE izzard. they had a marathon of him on BBC one day, of all his shows, and I watched every single special. ^^ What a way to waste a sunday!

    • Captain Wow says:

      I captioned this one with ‘Abort, Dmitri, Abort. I’ll never win the Miss World pagent if George Bush looks better in a dress. Look at that pout!’

  9. VAdame says:

    This Snuggie craze is gettin’ out of hand!

    • Wholesome says:

      Early test runs of the Snuggie unfortunately proved that it could not contain evil. The Snuggie did, however, have a side affect that was marketable, it could make people warm while still being able to use their arms.

  10. Kitti Ritter says:

    My man Putin even looks good in a dress!

  11. missmaikittehs says:

    I’m so excited! They published my LOL!!!!!!!

    WTF? No one noticed his pigeon-toed stance? C’mon, all! It’s so obvious…

    This is a cool picture I thought. He look great in those outfit and color.
