What what in da but!
This is from a military ceremony at the India-Pakistan Wagah border. I’ve seen this in a documentary before…they’re lowering the flag in Pakistan about the time they perform this ceremony. Both countries aren’t too fond of each other and this is sort of a ‘choreographed show of contempt’ as a reporter put it and they perform a little dance of sorts as they lower the flag. They’ve got clips of the ceremony on YouTube and just what they do is entertaining…
I saw it on PBS a while ago–fascinating. Martha Graham would be so proud!
You do an eclectic celebration of the dance! You do Fosse, Fosse, Fosse! You do Martha Graham, Martha Graham, Martha Graham! Or Twyla, Twyla, Twyla! Or Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd! Or Madonna, Madonna, Madonna!… but you keep it all inside.
Oh that crazy Robin Williams…
So this is Hell. And there’s a crucifix in it.
Such an awesome film, wish I was watching it RIGHT. NOW.
I love it too.
It’s like riding a psychotic horse toward a burning stable.
Um…okay?
You know what they say — fu(k the shrimp!
That’s what she said.
i saw a bit of this “dance” on the news not to long ago and started laughing, thinking this was some sort of stage show that is meant to produce laughter…but my aunt and uncle went OFF on me about it…apparently the soldiers/dancers are completely serious and this could break out in straight up war any minute…it may look like “you got served: bollywood edition” to us but it is very serious to them. something that baffles me to no end.
Yes, it is strange how serious any misstep could be taken. Better to have silly dances than flying nukes!
TRUE!
You Got Served: World Edition would be so much better than war!
I would love to see that actually, i am pretty sure the US wouldn’t be a dancing super power….
We could start doing this on the Mexican border. Ya know, “you got served” Homey style…
Our futures would be doomed! Have you seen the kids these days dance? I should have been a 70’s child, lol.
yep, a friend who has seen it in person tells me it attracts jingoistic tourists on both sides. They watch the routine and hurl abuses at the other country. It just feeds hate. When the two countries split, the border was crossed by millions of displaced, both alive and dead. It deserves a peace memorial. This absurd ceremony deserves the ridicule it gets on PunditKitchen.
I can’t help it, but I liked the Breaking News one: The Battle of Silly Hats and Mean Stares rages on.
Yeh that sounds much funnier.
Arranged by the Minister of Silly Walks…
Ah that is good! But this one gave me a giggle too
Yeah, I <3 them both.
The outrage on their faces is priceless.
Saw this a few months ago. Rather entertaining. I was on the Indian side and the stands were packed out. The was a lot of cheering from each side. I think they choose the tallest guys in the military for this ceremony cause the guys are between 6″3 and 6″8, which aint bad for the sub continent.
Those expressions are right out of a Bollywood musical!
I think these guys might be *the* two most pissed off looking people I’ve ever seen.
The thing is that it looks like they’ve never not been pissed off, but they also looked shocked. That is certainly a feat…. Or is it a foot?
You dare?!?! You dare piss me off more than my normal state of pissed offness?! I spit on you!!! *pitue*
*wipes spit out of eye and farts in Jane’s general direction*
*feeds elderberries to hamster*
Ahhh…but you’ve never met my former mother-in-law…
How are we supposed to be intimidated by military officers that wear fans on their heads? “No, sir, no, General Peacock, don’t stare at me with your soul-piercing eyes!” Thanks to the people who told us what it was really about.
There is a peculiar notion that elegant plumage
and fine feathers are not proper for the male.
When actually that is the way things are
In most species.
Thanks, Cap.
The Norwegian Blue prefers kippin’ on it back.
Remarkable bird, innit, eh’ Major??
Beautiful plumage!
He’s not dead- he’s stunned! He’s pining for the fjiords back home !
This is an EX PARROT! *whacks it on the counter*
‘E’s not pining, e’s passed on! This parrot is no more. He has ceased to be. ‘E’s expired and gone to meet his maker. This is a late parrot. It’s a stiff! Bereft of life ‘e rests in peace. If you hadn’t nailed him to the perch, ‘e’d be pushin’ up dasies. ‘E’s off the twig. ‘E’s rung the the curtain and joined the bleedin’ choir invisible…..’E FOOKKIN SNUFFED IT!!! This……is an ex-parrot.
This made me lol.
Dude, I’m afraid! That hat looks lethal! Lol.
I think it’s a height thing. Making yourself look as large/tall as possible is a pretty primal tactic for battles in any species.
And as pointed out above me, most males of any species are the more decorated ones, not the females.
lol! nice one
Did they die?
No. But that doesn’t mean we should give up hope.
Seriously. Who the hell are these people?
I googled: I just don’t get it.
Some weirdos that had 8 kids plus a reality show. Their marriage supposedly melted down on television. (I don’t do reality TV except for ‘antiques roadshow’.
I believe they can safely be described as “assholes.” But they’re assholes with 8 kids, so that makes them newsworthy assholes, apparently.
I just don’t get it. Get
those assholes and their eight kids off my gee-dee lawn!
Bitter Troll, eat those little bastards, willya???
Somehow, the media seems to think that the ability to have most of a baseball team in your womb at once is reason enough to put you all over TV and magazines and stuff. There was no reason for those assholes to be on TV at all, and their kids are paying the price for it unfortunately.
Not only do I NOT want to watch that, I want to shove a flaming poker in my mind’s eye for even having the idea of it in my head.
TLC — The Lobotomy Channel
Midgets are also huge on this channel. Wait….did I just say that?
*revokes lib card*
They prefer “lil’ peeps.”
*chucklin’*
Aw man….that’s the third or fourth time for that. Last time was calling Johnny Winter an albino. OH NOOOEESSS!!! Pigmentally challenged!!! Whew….what an unthinking lout I can be. Gonna take a while to get that card back this time.
“Seriously. Who the hell are these people?
I googled: I just don’t get it.”
`
Seriously? I don’t know ONE person who actually watches (watched?) the show, but I also don’t know ONE person who doesn’t know who Jon and Kate are. There’s no getting away from them!
Then you should quit hanging out with boob-toobies.
But seriously, I don’t watch much TV or pay attention to a lot of the crap that the media thinks is important other than political issues.
That, and my head is usually buried in other *ahem* subjects….
I watch TV sometimes…mostly when I’m stoned, and let me tell you, sometimes I find myself watching some pretty weird stuff…food network (it’s like porn for the munchies), MASH, history channel, MXC, bad kung foo movies….but I’ve never even heard of this show.
It must be so terrible that it isn’t even good when you’re high.
Now you know one person Tessie.
Dude….there is no such thing as a bad Kung Fu movie, at least in the Shaw Bros. heyday. The worser, the betterer. Like 50s monster stuff. Cheepnis, in the words of St. Zappa.
John & Kate Who?
What is known in one country is not in another
Do you guys know this where somebody headbutts Putin?
http://www.funpic.hu/hu.picview.php?id=30521
God, another utter twit.
It’s ‘Jon and Kate’ not ‘John and Kate’.
*facepalm*
God help us that you even KNOW that.
It is embarrassing, I know. But one can hardly read the news without being bombarded by that nonsense.
And no, I don’t watch it. I don’t watch TV at all. But that doesn’t mean I live in a cave with no news.
Ok, I give, who is Jon and Kate???
Two assholes who happened to become famous for having somewhere in the vicinity of 274 children, then got a reality show to make sure to maximize exploitation of said family, and then the shit hit the fan when everyone found out what assholes they really are, and they started ACTING like celebrities and not just two idiots who got a TV show and now they’re getting divorced.
That’s my run-on sentence about Jon & Kate Plus 8.
So these were just ‘average’ people that managed to get on TV? (I’m thinking that it’s probably a good thing this one never made it to Australia..)
Well, they had twins and then they had sextuplets, so now they have 8 kids. The whole show was built on the premise that they are this really great loving family and then the guy was caught cheating with some young thing on the side that didn’t mind his obvious hairplugs. Big sh*tstorm ensued.
8 kids you say? 8 tastey tastey childrens?
where be them?
TELL ME
I’d try divorce court.
When asked if he liked children, The Prophet Fields replied, “I do if they’re properly cooked!”
Considering Kate is a total b*tch, it’s hard to blame the guy for wanting something on the side. Not that I agree with cheating, but I wouldn’t want to have to live with someone who was constantly humiliating me for the amusement of a national television audience.
Neither of them should ever have been on TV, frankly. I think being in the spotlight changed them, and not for the better. I’m not about to endorse him cheating on her, but I am gonna say straight out they’re both tools, and deserve whatever nastiness happens to them. I feel bad for their kids though. Exploited by mom and dad and now *8* of them are gonna have to deal with their parents being divorced. What a mess.
Then go to couple’s counseling or hey, maybe even divorce if it’s that bad. He was riding a gravy train and didn’t want it to stop. Don’t give me that “she’s a b*tch so he can cheat” bullsh*t.
he has no excuse to cheat…fact
she had no excuse to be a bitch for years and crush a mans soul….fact
Correlation does not imply causation, or some such nonsense.
-
Look, every man (or woman) has reasons for cheating…..its’ VERY rarely just because they’re a scumbag. HOWEVER, man or woman, you should nut up and end it before you cheat, not because you cheat. It’s not fair to anyone involved if you cheat first and ask questions later.
Hey, I have no doubt that if cameras followed me around all the time they wouldn’t catch the most flattering sides of me. It also bears remembering that “reality” shows do a hell of a lot of editing to create tension and drama to make it watchable. Was she a b*tch? Probably. Was she like this when he married her? Again, probably. Did he do passive aggressive sh*t off camera to get to her? Maybe. Is it any excuse to cheat? Hell no.
You can’t call someone a twit for not knowing the name of a reality show only twits watch.
You can call them a winner, and yourself a twit, but not the other way round.
You too are clearly a twit.
Target acquired.
Commence burnination at will.
Who. Fvcking. Cares.
“God, another utter twit.
It’s ‘Jon and Kate’ not ‘John and Kate’.”
It’s so sad and pathetic that you know that and felt the need to correct me. Forgive my willful ignorance for I care not.
It is the Indian and Pakistani border patrols doing the nightly “drill” off as they ceremonially shut the gates on the main border crossing!
Search for Wagah Border on Wikipedia (link in my name). It’s a show put on by both sides, not serious at all – no chance of it blowing up into an altercation between the two sides. (You can trust Wiki on this, I’m from India, the article is correct).
Ok, did that and it was actually pretty interesting. It reminds me a lot of the Maori Haka which is a dance that’s supposed to intimidate the opponent. Looks damn scary if done by the right people..
John and Kate who?
I like the picture…don’t understand the caption.
does anyone actually care about john and kate
No, but I think that’s the whole point of the joke. The media apparently cares and they think everyone else cares – if everyone REALLY cared the lol wouldn’t work, IMO.
The problem is – the episode they announced their divorce is their highest rated. It’s hard to say no one cares when they had something like 20 or 30 million people tuned in to watch this “special announcement”, despite the fact that the meat of the announcement was pretty easily inferred.
Sadly enough, I know someone who watches Jon and Kate. She also watches the Duggers (all 93 of them, all with the first name starting with the letter J), and Little People, Big World, and that new show about the dwarf couple. The woman I know who watches all of these shows is, herself, a dwarf. She has not been on television exploiting herself though.
I got conned into watching a programme about the Duggers recently. Because it was on an Irish tv channel, I thought it was going to be an objective look at how their religious beliefs are at the back of the life decisions they’ve made, but it was just a puff-piece for them. That’s an hour of my life I won’t be getting back. . .
I do have to ask though: will they stop having kids once they run out of names beginning with J?
Nah, they come up with them as they go- and the eldest son just got his wife pregnant, so it’s going to start all over again.
…Wasn’t the father (I think his name’s Jim Bob) a senator of Arkansas or something? I was channel surfing and saw a commercial for the Dugger kids snowboarding on campaign signs.
We could just nuke both these silly countries, and eliminate the presence of “dance contempt” from our world. Added plus, more parking in the pacific rim.
Yeah. This at the Punjab-Pakistan border in Amritsar. There is a daily opening of the gate as a ceremonial thing…
