Just because it says a political job title does not make it a PK worthy submission.
Do we really need to go through the entire laundy list of what is worthy? Seriously, look at some of the other submissions and tell me those have political connotations as well.
C’mon, Eddie, forget the fact that he’s on your lawn and agree with him while we scream “NO MORE HUMORLESS CAT LOLS! THEY’RE NOT EVEN POLITICAL!”
Since there’s another firefighter picture upload not too much farther down with 62-ish comments and none about the inappropriateness of the content–from being a regular reader, I’d say firefighters/firefighting in general on this site falls under the “LOL News” part of the PK subtitle. If this should be strictly politics, then just call it PunditKitchen: LOL Politics Fun. My two cents.
Not.
Referring to the firefighters.
Since there’s another upload of a firefighter rescuing cats not too far down, we don’t need another.
There have been plenty of “look, this cat is being rescued!” LOLs in the last few days that don’t even have a BAD joke in them.
By the way, this doesn’t fall under the “LOL News” part of the title because there isn’t anything inherently funny about a firefighter rescuing a kitten and saying “pay him more!”
kittens dont = PKstuffs, even if you throw a fireperson in with it.
bitter troll with now wack each kitten beyond this with a mallet who dares get onto the PK pic, unless its a person whom belongs on this site holding a cat..like Kim Jong Il beating a cat against a post..that works…
and whats with that stupid one with the queen…the creator must be a retard
Who, Grimmiekins? Yeah, that guy is never funny.
I hate that guy.
I hate that charro mermaid chick. She’s a pain in the ass. And a statist.
YEAH!…eer wait i mean NO!
Uh oh. Someone’s not getting any tonight.
-does his best Vader impression-
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooOOOOooooOOOooooooooOOoo
It’s ok though, because in our socialist society bitter can just take some booty from someone who’s getting a lot! Because that’s what’s going to happen! Whatever you have a lot of… it’ll get taken away and given to everyone else!
well that makes sense…-grabs jane-
Are you sure that’s Jane bitter…. are you sure that’s not one of her clones? Mwuahaha
*looks up from Max’s pants* I thought we were out of Jane clones. Huh. I must not have checked that last cupboard. Ah well. *burrows back into her hidey hole*
Now I understand why you wear those MC Hammer pants. Lots of room, you know, in the, ah, yeah.
It’s also my own personal way of bringing the 80′s back.
Well played. They look good on you. You really pull them off; there’s just something about you that says “hip hop.”
I hate that Igor dude.
He’s so messed up, and, like, stuff.
What the f*ck is his picture of anyway? I uh… Copied and pasted it on mine because I uh… wanted to give you guys a chance to look at it?
That picture is of your face, asshole.
Literally.
clearly igor this is an evil plot by the amish
The AMISH turned me schizophrenic? Damn them, with their damned alien technology and super-advanced plots!
Am I really that weak?
*Voice in back of head screams*
YES, ASSHOLE!
Who is this Hamish and what has he gone and done with all the anti-psychotics?
I heard that Rando is closed minded. Yah. It’s true. Uh huh. And he doesn’t like people. And he pooped in his pants in high school.
who hasnt pooped his pants in highschool?
If pooping in your pants is cool, then I must be Miles Davis.
close enough
Poopin in your pants is teh coolest!!!11!!
I love all of you.
I want to have sex with that creator. His name is so… Enticing. And his body… Mhm!
He must be a TERRIBLE person to make LOLs that bad!
BWAHAHAHAHAH I just saw who the creator is. That’s hysterical. What would your children’s names be?
bitter igor the wigglious
Couldn’t it be
“bitter Iggler the wigglikins”?
sounds like an angry muppet
LOL. Yes. Our children would be tiny furry puppets…
Should we just name the COOOOKIE MONSTER instead, so they don’t have to change it later?
and eggplant wizard!~.~
(1) If salaries for firefighters and other public servants isn’t one of the most hotly debated political issues, I don’t know what is. And evidently I have to point out that it isn’t merely because they save kittens. (2) The writer of the submission has no control over which category said submission is placed under. (3) Nice to see you missed the larger picture entirely. Clearly you just don’t get it. (4) With front page placement, 1854 votes, and 471 comments, albeit mostly jejune, your opinion matters little.
I’ve found a troll; may we burn her!?
I’ll do that, Paws.
(1) If showing a picture of someone and saying they deserve more money is “LOL” to you, you need the rest of your brain restored.
(2) Refer to Shortright’s post.
(3) I get it, but it doesn’t belong on a humor website. Go post it on a blog named “Political issues”, not “LOL News”. Good job trying to make an assumption based on the fact that I’m tired of the third picture recently of a cat being rescued and complimenting them, followed by no humor.
(4) With yet ANOTHER front page kitty-rescue-yay LOL, a number of votes that don’t matter because it’s on the front page and that is based upon how many people that visit the site and see the front page, and a number of comments that ALSO have nothing to do with quality, my opinion matters just the same as it always has, you idiot. Just the same as yours.
(5) Since people have disagreed with you, and most all parts of the regular PK community agree that the firefighter-saves-kitty-now-compliment-him LOLs need to stop, your opinion matters just as little. Now there’s no need to tell me how much my opinion is worth or what I do and don’t get, you useless little cancerous growth.
but THEY ARE TRUE.
Aww, how sweet
This pic is nice and uplifting.
Yeah, but wait until he takes that cute little kitten home to the wife.
Cat’s have the most expressive faces
Especially when they’re shredding your furniture.. Something along the lines of, “That’ll teach you to miss my dinner time by 5 minutes.”
Or when they see you step into the carefully located cold-but-damp hairball deposit. Definite ‘neener-neerner’ expressions.
Ick.
The cats, they’re evil I tell you.
That’s right, and I have one of them at home.
I heard that cats taste like chicken.
Found on the latest immigration questionaire:
Cats are to chicken like dogs are to ____?
El gato es too chicken, pero el perro is too terrified!
pittypat speaks the moon man lanuage!
*suddenly craves a baon, letuce, and tomao sanuage*
Pollo pitty. Pollo.
Gatitos tiene mucho sabor! Me gusta mucho.
-fears charro has been replaced by a moon woman charro-
Ay, Charro has a problemo with Spanglish?
Wait a minute… Pitty… You said pitty! I understood that! I CAN SPEAK SPANISH!
Soy es una batida de melocoton!
melon cotton?..-confused-
I may have spelled it wrong, I never was any good at El Spanisho.
Ich spreche Deutsch aber nicht so gut.
Ja, ich kann gut Deutsche lesen und horen, aber nicht so gut sprechen.
Or at making umlauts.
How did I miss this conversation?
I am is a peach shake.
you used 2 different verb tenses.
Hah! Brilliant!
I HATE those
Something:Something :: Something Else:Something Else
questions. Give me a number problem any day – Twice on Sunday.
“Hey, guys! Look what the wife put in my lunch today!”
Remember Alf? Comic gold for all the cat abuse jokes. Gave new meaning to the term “trying to get Lucky.”
hihi
Not yet, thanks. The drugs haven’t kicked in.
Whut?
DAMNIT. That was SUPPOSED to say *kaffkaff* Whut?
My hero! So cute!
Why does the kitten deserve to get paid as much as a senator?
becauses its a MURDERER!!!!!
Squash the kitty! The kitty’s a zombie statist!!
Awww..it had been too long
tomorrow is 9-9-9…are you ready for the ZOmbie lennon?
I don’t know…AM I?
Bring you shotgun… and your Anti Yoko spray.
The spray doesn’t work.. ask Paul and Ringo.
Fcuk that. I’m going mano-y-mano against Yoko. There are going to be some VERY SERIOUS FISTICUFFS!!!
*grabs the popcord*
-
What time is the show?
*popcorn*
At 9:09 am London time. It’s coming up soon.
Ooh, pass some this way Eds my good man.
*hands charro the popcorn*
-
I can’t wait to see Yoki have ber ass handed to her!
Me neither! *noms*
I’ve got $50 on the on the blonde chick!
The odds are with her… youth and agilty you know.
But Yoko has the screech. That’s like a fatality move in Mortal Kombat or some shit.
LOL! I forgot about the screech..
Like Screech from Saved by the Bell?
Oh God no.. this is a screech that will send owls into epileptic siezures.
That’s okay…I brought EARPLUGS!!!
Earplugs won’t save you from The Screech. If they did, the Beatles wouldn’t have broken up.
Hey Rando, You Can Be My Yoko Ono……
(whoa whoa whoa!)
You can follow me wherever I go……
Be my, be my, be my Yoko Ono,
Whoa…..whoa!!!!!
If I was john and you were yoko,
I would gladly give up musical genius,
Just to have you as my very own, personal venus.
I know that when I say this
I may be on pins and needles….
But I don’t like all these people slagging her for breaking up the Beatles…..
Don’t blame it on Yoki!
My favorite part of the song is their impression of Yoko singing.
(btw, speaking of Zombie Lennon, linky)
Oh wait, it’s already 09-09-09 here.. AAAAAARGH!
WOOHOO! IT’S ABOUT TIME THAT THIS WORLD GOES UP IN FLAMES!!!
Huh. It’s past 9:09 London time and the world hasn’t come to an end. No Zombie Lennon. My bad.
Well it is, what it is… I’m sorry the truth offends you so viscerally.
I can’t change the facts, and you just need to accept them.
Wha- URgh… BLEH! *head asplodes*
Now Max, if you had simply duct taped your head to begin with, you wouldn’t be having this problem.
*sighs and begins to pick up pieces of Max’s asploded head*
*finishes his duct-taped triage* Thanks froo… My brain runs on linear logic… when you introduce circular logic, its like a potato in a centrifuge…
cause they need chav bling, p.s. BOO
You’re a strange, strange little person.
yes i know, so do i have to be normal or grown up to fit in to this WORLD
No, no… Just act intelligent and/or make your posts legible.
Oh, and make it so when you talk there is a point to the story…
bitter troll has never done that, not once ever
You don’t need to, bitter darling. We love you.
Why is world capitalized?
what the hell is this and what is ceiling cat, this is so weired
We can see you, little sock puppet… Your symbol is the same.
-points and screams like in invasion of the body snatchers-
angie, you’re beautiful, but aint it time we said good-bye?
Angie, angie, when will your avatar disappear?
Angie, angie, please go away from here
With no funneh in our trolls, and not enough hard drugs and alcohol to go around,
You cant say we’re satisfied
But angie, angie, you cant say we never tried
Angie, you’re a big fat buzzkill, and aint it time we said good-bye?
*snort* I’ll be back after I clean up the coffee..
ugh. Firefighters do not get paid much because
1) there are too many of them to pay like senators
2) It’s a job that almost anyone in good physical condition can do with the right training
And that looks like my kitten, who’s on my lap now
In #2, you forgot to say “almost anyone with the sheer brass to walk towards a fire and occasionally enter the building that is filled with burning wood” in your list of requirements.
I grew up in a town where all of the firefighters were volunteers. Now THAT I don’t understand. Except that they apparently had great parties…
My parents live in the same type of town. There is a firefighter there who is (no joke) so tall that he was able to step over our fence to get to a burning bulldozer. If I may put this into perspective, a normal stock fence is a 3 foot high “hog wire” bottom with two strands of barbed wire across the top, putting the total height of the fence somewhere around 4.5-5 feet high, depending on who builds it (ours are around the 4.5′ range). He STEPPED OVER IT. He didn’t push the wire down.
Even if I could step over it, I would push that wire down–there are BARBS there!!!
Here in Kentucky the State Troopers say in their creed, “I ran in as everyone else ran out.”
-
I went to their graduation one year and they shout the creed. Gave me chills when they shout, “I AM A KENTUCKY STATE TROOPER”.
oh cute kitty,
yes all firemen should be paid that much and more
Is it just me, or is ICHC invading PK?
Agreed. Help us insult them with proper English until they go cry to Ceiling Cat.
proper engrish! YAY
Oh mai gawd i can haz LOLspeak plskthx?
I can’t even do it right. I fail.
It is impossible to fail lolspeak, IT HAS NO RULES.
You couldn’t be more wrong!
Well, you probably could. But sure it has rules. Tons of them!
Oooh, grammar class is in session, I’m all ears.
No.
We refuse to teach something as immoral as LOLspeak here, Harkness…. Go to ICHC and witness the atrocity for yourself. :/
Why tygor? WHY!? I trusted you, and followed your suggestion… I went and looked…. OH GOD… MY READING EYES!
*passes saline* Here, try this.
Isn’t there an LOLSpeak dikshunary on ICHC somewhere?
It’s pissing me off. I wonder if it’s accidental on the part of the admins.
Or God forbid the admins are trying to recruit us to join teh kewt *urps*
now now let us not speak poorly of the gods of PK, less they grow angry and allow randomness back…we must remind them we are still thankful for such an act
Oh but I accidental, as in, they’re not aware that all these crappy craptions are seeping over to PK. Maybe some demented ICHC is on the night shift or something …
I think this calls for another spate of emails from our litigation department over at Eddie, Eddie, Charro, Eddie and Charro, LLP.
*pretend I fixed all the typos
what typos? i don’t see no stinkin’ typos in what you wrote. seriously, it looks fine to me (but then i can’t spell and my punctuation is almost as bad)
We did single handedly take down the comment ratings. I approve of that piece of litigation.
Ok, I’ll start the ball rolling and send another e-mail to them. I don’t know if I have an in or not, but I’ll bribe them with the location of Jimmy Hoffa. That should be worth a fair bit.
Ok, this is what I wrote:
*thumbs up* Eddie’s comment
Oh, good. Hope they are not replaced by heartwarming photos of paramedics with puppies.
I haz a puppeh
*brane asplodes*
good night to all the wakyie peps
It’s nice that people are being nice enough to rescue kittehs, but isn’t this, like, the third picture of its kind?
1. Ibid., Deserves the Salary of a Senator, 68.
At least this one has no lolspeak, does not straight out say he’s very nice for saving a cat in particular, and takes a poke at the senator paychecks compared to those of other civil servants.
I hope we’ll get a break from firefighters with kittens now, but I think this is the best so far. Or least bad. ;p
first one was cute, bitter troll admits, but then another, and another, and another, and another…-pulls out his cat wacking hammer-
I suppose everyone’s tired of the old Town Hall Debate/Kim Jong Il jokes and wants to see happy, conflict-free kitten lols? It’s really time someone examined the sociology of the ICHC network.
There is that–less canned political whargarble and leftnizzle. All replaced with general ‘Hey! What’s with the excessitude of kittiness?!?elebenty!!
At least it is a change!
YES! We finally got that change we’ve been looking for since November!
“I will hug him and kiss him and squeeze him and call him George.”
There’s that soapbox again. Would someone just set it on fire already?
What’s up with all these OMG KITTEHS pictures as of late? I swear to god, there’s been at least a picture a day talking about how badass cat saviors supposedly are, and how they deserve to be millionaires for it. It’s starting to get annoying.
yeah really, what do they do, toss the puppies back in the fire?
“Quiet you or we’ll nail you to a cross!”
I have a question:
Is there a contest to get the socks lol up to 2000 comments? Cause if there is, I want to know what the prize will be.
“Congraaaaaaaaaaaaatulations! You’re the 2,000th poster on this lol! You win a lifetime supply of cheese!”
Cheese!? Holy Jesus Christ on a Bike!!
*posts like mad in the socks lol*
Pfft. Jesus never rode a bike.
….I thought it was a pogo stick. *shrugs* You never know what he’s going to do.
He’s entering a decathlon. There’s lot of things for Jesus to do now!
What wouldn’t Jesus do?
Oh that’s awesome.
Yeah… this is the one I want, though. Because he does, you know. He does.
*gasp*
i want it!
That’s what I was thinking.. if ever there was a team smote by God, it has to be the Cubs.
Nesting fail… gah!
well, the indians aren’t doing so hot right now… :-/
Exactly, eddie. 100 years and counting. And Cardinals Nation likes to rub in the Cubs fans faces every single year. Along with our 10 World Series Championships.
Can I get that in a Chicago Cubs version?
*Rushes in and steals the cheese*
-
Sorry guys, I need for my therapy.. I’ll return it later.
But that’s socialist cheese! It belongs to everyone! Especially the freeloaders who don’t have a job!
It can be socialist when I’m done with it… Muuuuuwaahaaaa…
-
And Jimmy H. says hi…
Tell Jimmy he still owes me $500 on that bet of “Will they get me”
He’s laughing.. is this an inside joke or something?
That son of a….. LET ME AT HIM!
Uh, sorry, can’t do that. Then you would know where he is.
Perhaps a trade then? I can give you a pair of these awesome hover boots!
Throw in the silvery jacket and we might have a deal!
Wait, he’s alive? Or is he Zombie Hoffa? Will Zombie Hoffa, Zombie Reagan, and Zombie Lennon have a battle to the undeath?
Eddie, you bastard, you moved my cheese!!
Not to worry, it will be back long before it has any hint of green or bleu.
Oh, darn. I like bleu cheese.
That’s fine. We can have a prize for that. As long as the A-word doesn’t get it.
Um… Yeah, right.
I don’t think the idiot who came up with this caption has ANY idea how hard senators work to make America a better country.
Honestly, they deserve a lot more respect (and yes, better wages) considering how much they do for ALL of us! Of course you right-wingers want them to work for peanuts even though they toil day in and day out to make America a better, more fair, and more equitable place for everyone – Including yourselves… Then again, 8 years of Bush have proven beyond any doubt that Republicans love to vote against their own best interests and bite the hand that feeds them.
As for the fireman, he saved a mangy kitten. So what? You’re saying that saving an animal that costs, what, $10 at a pet store somehow makes him a hero worthy of a large salary? I don’t think so…
As a proud liberal and left winger can I say, That those old lazy pricks should work for peanuts because THEN they’d have the incentive to make things better for EVERYONE instead of themselves.
And we’re saying having the balls to go into a burning building and save not only kittens but PEOPLE as well deserves a much larger salary, especially considering a lot of them are volunteers…
Perhaps you should take your left wing froth… shine it up real nice….
AND STICK IT UP YOUR CANDY ASS!!! Get out of the left wing… we don’t want idiots like you anymore than the right wants the idiots on their side.
yes, take the jingle jangle away from the politicians and give it to the teachers, especially the ones that have to teach the right wing kids — that’s bravery being a teacher!
I do agree teachers should be paid more… But not what senators get.
Brains should equal money, period.
“Brains should equal money, period.”
Stop right there. Are you insinuating that teachers don’t have brains? Are you really that stupid or do you actually have to work hard at it?
Teachers should be paid a heckuva lot more, and yes, as much as senators. I dare you to go into a classroom of 25+ children each and have the guts to stand up there and take questions, sass, attitude, complete lack of interest, over interest, and parents.
Teachers have to know the subject they teach just as much as anyone actually in the profession on top of knowing teaching methods and such.
Am I insinuating that teachers don’t have brains?
Well… YES I AM!
How many “brains” does it take to crank out another basic lesson to a bunch of KIDS and keep a bit of an eye out while they read their textbooks? HARDLY ANY, and you’re an idiot if you actually buy the crap they tell you about being sooooo smart because it’s all a load of bulls**t!
I was smarter than ALL of my teachers from K-12 and regularly proved to be better than 80-90% of my college professors, so don’t give me that “teachers are smart” crap. I do say they deserve more money because they *do* help inspire some of the lower students to achieve more but they aren’t gods… They’re average plain-Jane people who are, as a rule, not all that bright, period-end-of-story.
Just because they teach your children that does not mean they are imbued with magical brain powers…
Okay, seriously, just STFU. You are seriously retarded. Whatever brains you might think you have are completely canceled out by being a complete egotistical anal douche. I’m sure being a total ass all the time makes you very popular with your friends that don’t exist.
Oh btw, wtf do you do that’s so goddamned special besides troll the Internet?
Well, if, as you claim, you are a genius, then being smarter than most teachers and college professors is a shoe-in: Try applying some of that IQ to thinking about degrees of smartness, and you might realise that “not as smart as you” doesn’t stop someone still being in the top 10percentile of the population.
Wow, all of your teachers, including professors, were that stupid?
I don’t care if they were stupid. If they were less of an ass than Again, then I like them better already.
If this intellitroll is smarter than all its teachers, them are some damn stupid teachers.
Considering some of the other things he’s said, it’s quite obvious the folks that taught him weren’t that smart…
We just wish that you were imbued with any semblance of a brain.
Now now Emyni… SOME people can’t help it… they were dropped on their heads as children…
Repeatedly… =)
And they refuse to wear their helmets.. This one is adamant about not messing up his hair.
It makes it easier to stone him, though.
Oh WTF! What makes senators so much smarter than the rest of us? The ability to manipulate people doesn’t necessarily make you smart. Senators aren’t better than any of us. Maxwell is right, pay them less to give them incentive to work harder instead of being lazy fat cats in Washington doing what their lobbyists tell them to.
No, Maxwell is an IDIOT for saying that they deserve less money because without a financial incentive they would probably stray from the will of the people and embrace idiocy like the NRA agenda/Big Oil/Big Pharma/Talk (Hate) Radio/etc because the would “fill in the financial gaps” and influence the votes.
If you want to ensure senators work for the public interests what you should do is RAISE their salaries (About $1-3 million/year + benefits should suffice), which would encourage them to NOT bite the hand that feeds them, namely US. If senators were paid as well as rock stars we would have a much, much smoother government and better lives in general…
Just sayin’
Oh wait, what did the Supreme Court say about the Second, regardless of what the words of it say; what sort of profits does US Pharma return…
Since you’re so smart, you’ll realise that your argument just failed after 15s contact with someone less smart than you are!
Paws, can’t you read? Everyone’s less smart than Again.
It’s, it’s, an intellitroll!
If Again was so smart, he’d have given himself a better name.
That’s horse shit and you know it. I *knew* you were going to say that, fvcking KNEW it. Well, butt fungus, they’re already doing pretty fvcking good, and it doesn’t seem to stop the corruption. Money is only a part of the equation. The important thing? Power. That’s what it comes down to. That’s why they stay in Washington forever. How many of them don’t really need the money? Huh? You raise their pay, and they’re still gonna play the same damn games. If anything, paying them more helps perpetuate their corruption.
This is performance art. No one can be this stupid. I mean, honestly, if you believe the stuff you’re spouting, Mr. Again, I think that either shock treatments or kindly throwing yourself off the nearest cliff is in order.
Please, do this quickly before you have a chance to procreate. We need a few more complete sets of teeth in the world, and I’m sure that your progeny would make up half a set between all 8 of them.
I’ve never been a big fan of performance art. But it sure is fun to rip on this asshole anyway!
Did you know that shock therapy is still used for those with SEVERE depression, and it works. We have no idea why though. Sorry if I interrupted the vibe, but I always found that so interesting.
Did you know that some of the people who undergo shock treatment therapy have gaps in their memory?
Just wanted to point that out.. :/
I did actually, but I still find it fascinating.
a friend of mine used shock therapy for severe depression and it didn’t work
so not only was she depressed but she lost a few months of memory surrounding the procedure. she got her ears pierced and does not remember doing it at all.
I find that kinda scary too.
I’m really sorry about that. Now I feel bad for bringing it up.
it’s ok.
it’s mean to say it but she’s fecking nuts and we don’t have a whole lot to do with her anymore. she decided out of the blue that she was going to get fired one day (even though she’d just gotten a good raise and review) so she quit her job, moved a few hours away and got a job that paid less, at a lower level of work and now complains that she has no friends and no one wants to hang out with her.
she’s got 4 cats and they’re all just as obese as she is. she’s a VERY VERY sick person. not just depression.
“Brains should equal money, period.”
In that case, most of Congress would be getting minimum wage.
As for teachers, 75% of my town’s budget is the School Department. 85% of THAT goes to salary and benefits.
When the city tries to level-fund or *gasp* cut the budget, the school department is allowed by state law (passed by Democratic-controlled Legislature, many of whom are fellow union members) to sue the school for the difference. Most of the budget increases being sued over are due to- wait for it- salary and benefit increases.
The teachers are doing fine. Trust me.
Meanwhile, our state ranks near the bottom of student performance nationwide.
The only thing keeping us off the bottom is our large number of Catholic and other private schools, whose students far outperform their public school peers, and whose teachers are paid 50% less than their public school peers.
You really think that some grunt in a mindless job deserves more money than someone who has studied hard and worked their way into office?
It’s a case of negotiating treaties with people from other nations vs. squirting water onto a fire, dude… No contest.
Senators get more money because they DESERVE it, period end of story – Don’t judge them until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes! You act like being a senator is an “easy job” but I guarantee that it is at LEAST twice as hard as being a fire fighter because you have to use your MIND more than your body to affect change…
Oh, and I’m not going anywhere. Proud liberal for all of my 34 years and not about to let “a proud liberal and left winger” like *you* oust me from my views (and honestly… I think you’re a lying piece of… well, Right-wing idiot. Sorry but that’s how you sound!)
So that’s your opinion of a firefighter? I hope when the time comes and YOU need their services they know who you are and stand back while your house burns or you slowly die from a heart attack. The difference between a firefighter and a senator is firefighting tends to be a lifelong job. Secondly, you twat, it takes a lot more thought to fight a fire than just rushing in with a hose. And third, I wouldn’t have a problem paying Senators huge sums of money if it was only while they are in office and not for the rest of their phucking life.
I think you failed your government class, Senator’s don’t negotiate treaties.
Considering the amount of time they actually spend in Congress, I think they are vastly overpaid. Why not put them on an hourly wage and dock them when they don’t show up to vote.
“It’s a case of negotiating treaties with people from other nations vs. squirting water onto a fire, dude… No contest.
I think you failed your government class, Senator’s don’t negotiate treaties.”
Zing! *high fives Eds*
So you were a liberal before you could walk? I can see you trying to debate with the other 5 year olds in kindergarten. They probably thought you were a twat then as well. All I can say is, thank GOD you’re not a right-winger.
And thank GOODNESS that you *are* a right-wing douchebag and not in my camp!
(GOODNESS is as close as anyone will ever get to a “god”, btw)
Guess what. The left “camp” just canceled your cabin and told you to rot in hell, bitch. We don’t want you either. Go be the island you apparently believe you are somewhere else.
Whoa…. did I just get called a right-wing…. idiot?
*snorts, but holds it in*
I can handle being called an idiot by someone who thinks firefighting is easier than being a senator… (hazardous workplace anyone?) But… being called a right-wing idiot? Do you LIVE on this planet? Did the schools you attended that you were “smarter than 80%-90% of your teachers” composed primarily of primates?
If so, then it explains a whole helluva lot!
Planet of the Apes? He got his name because he knows the Planet of the Apes is coming AGAIN?!
Looks like it to me.. I mean, I would welcome you any time into our camp. But be aware, you would have to check your viewpoints in at the door. Otherwise, welcome!
By the way, Eddie is in no way a douchebag.
Projection, Again, ever heard of it?
And I think Eddie is right in saying he’s glad you’re not misrepresenting his political party so grievously, because I’m sure not glad that you’re giving the idiots who bash Democrats for being self-righteous idiots more ammo…
Comment from Stirling Moss:-
When I retired from motor racing I thought I had a choice of 2 careers; Estate Agent (US Realtor) or politician, because they’re the only jobs that require no skills, no knowledge, and no experience.
Wow… do I really need to direct your attention (I’d link it if I was sure PK wouldn’t nom it) to the fail blog post just last week?? Not one but TWO political talking heads playing SOLITAIRE as they’re supposed to be discussing a budget.
I’m not sure at all why Again has such a love affair with Congress.
I suspect their email address ends in dotgov, ifyaknowwhatImean.
I wondered about that. Again is probably some senator really bored right now. You know, ‘cos saving America doesn’t take ALL day.
If it can’t be done during a 9-5 then it probably cant be done!
You have absolutely NO IDEA about the context in which that picture was taken, so shut up.
They were probably on a (well-deserved) break from debate when this sniveling piece of crap was snapped and they have every right to recreate as they see fit whenever they are not working.
Funny how the right-wing mongoloids snapped onto that stupid thing like its gospel truth! You mouth-breathing trailer dwellers will grab for ANYTHING that makes our Democracy look bad won’t you? Why don’t you crack open another Enfamil for the squalling redhead in the high-chair instead of snorting more meth for once?
Wow. I don’t even know where to start on this one. Number one, “trailer dwellers” are equal opportunity as far as politics go. Number two, well, that’s you. Number three, it’s not a democracy. Don’t drink the kool-aid. Number four, why are conservatives snorting meth? That doesn’t make any sense. And what’s up with the Enfamil reference? Where the hell did that come from?
You’re not a liberal. Stop calling yourself that. We don’t want you.
Conservatives don’t snort meth, we crush up OxyContin and snort that instead. Much cleaner.
Anyway, Again has to be doing this as performance art. Surely there isn’t someone on this planet with the brain skills to be able to type who still needs to be told to breathe regularly. He’s a douche of the highest order (NOT a compliment, just in case his tiny little paramecium brain takes it that way), and Rando, he’s making your side look like a bunch of raving loons. I’m so very, very sorry.
“Conservatives don’t snort meth, we crush up OxyContin and snort that instead. Much cleaner.”
Dude. I fvcking KNEW it!
“Rando, he’s making your side look like a bunch of raving loons. I’m so very, very sorry.”
We try so hard to buck those loony frothy stereotypes and this jackass brings them all back up REPEATEDLY. Unless Again is a conservatroll trying to sabotage we liberals here. I wouldn’t be surprised if the A-word or the M-word pulled that.
m-word?
rhymes with forsythia, with a lisp.
Bingo.
Although, I didn’t get the impression that Nortitha was against liberals; just that she had an incredibly naive, idiotic understanding of the world and only argued ad nauseum.
I’m not sure, short, but… Megabob?
that’s who i was thinking… but i realized we were talking about a-word’s “not” sock.
ah, around these parts we just call it hillbilly heroin (oxy that is)
wow, so much fail. the fact that we’re talking about SENATORS and REPRESENTATIVES means this isn’t a democracy, it’s a republic.
Ehm. What? Democracies come in many different forms!
True, but one of the necessary traits of a democracy is the “one man, one vote,” equal representation for all trait. While we all do get a vote, because of the way our senate works, not everybody is represented equally. The citizens of California, for example, get less representation in the senate than a citizen of Wyoming, since the citizen in Cali is sharing his representation from his 2 senators with several million other people, while the citizen in Wyoming is sharing theirs with only a 600 hundred thousand. This makes us a republic, with some very democratic ideals. The constitution sets up our government this way on purpose, and despite a few recent transgressions, has worked out very well for the American people
lol, “a 600 thousand.” saw it just after I posted. Lame
I believe you have the Senate and the House of Representatives mixed up. Every state has 2 Senators. Where as the House is made up according to population.
I would suggest you retake Government 101..
Oh, right, I see what you mean. But it’s not really because you are a republic – you could theoretically still be a republic but with a different weighting of senate/house chairs. Anyway – it’s still a democracy in that every one person has a vote (unless they aren’t eligible for one reason or other to vote), and the shenanigans you do after the voting is … another matter.
… as usual I fail at getting everything said in one post. A republic just means having an elected head of state, as opposed to for example a monarchy.
Almost. The thing that defines a republic is that instead of all citizens voting on every issue in government (which, nowadays, would be totally disastrous), we elect officials who go and vote for us on issues, and we entrust them with upholding the values of their constituency. The House and senate mostly just present the different ways of representing their states.
Hmm. Differing definitions of republic, simply.
Holy Crap, I fail on an epic level. I just reread what you wrote and man, do I ever feel embarrassed.
-
Please, disregard..
Ed, the chief would like to have a word with you. I’ll sit outside and laugh and plan more explosive ways of dealing with dumbasses.
Well, that went better than expected. I get to keep my badge and the lawn..
Oh, and he enrolled me into Gubmint 101..
he?! um, hello??? i have no bits and pieces down there.
the token-too-hot-female chief is NOT pleased.
Oh, I inadvertantly dropped the ‘s’.. sorry Chief!
Eddie, I know he didn’t mix them up, but didn’t he completely leave out the House of Representative? (As my very funny teacher called them, his only legal HORS)
I’m not sure that it’s relevant to what he’s talking about, but if he’s going to cite the inequality in the senate populations, shouldn’t he mention the fact we DO have one according to the size of populations?
There is that.. thanks for the save, Ty-gor.. unfortunately, I’m not looking forward to attending a repeat of Government class.
No problem!
-Performs a group high-five on Eddie-
I read the purpose of the post as being to point out what would make the US not a democracy becuase not every citizen’s vote is equal, and then the Senate would be the essential bit. So, he could’ve mentioned the House, but I wouldn’t say should’ve.
You’re right, and the reason we have a bicameral congress is the Connecticut Compromise, which was designed specifically to keep America from becoming a complete democracy. The two houses were meant to balance each other, one to represent STATES equally, the other to represent PEOPLE equally. As a result, the people and states are not represented entirely equally, but the final product usually ends up reasonable due to this system of checks and balances
Hey, it’s all good
I do that all the time.
*Rando narrows eyes, glares, mouth twitches slightly*
You.
You came back. Haven’t we had enough of you? All the work we’ve done to make sure liberals don’t sound like complete morons and you’ve got to go and start typing without bothering to think first???
If karma existed (and it doesn’t, trust me), it would be you learning how hard firefighters work by them rescuing your pathetic, whiny ass from your burning home. I’d like to see your senator do that. I have no desire to be a firefighter, but I have massive amounts of respect for what they do. You don’t risk burning alive voting on whatever bill happens to be on the senate floor, assbite.
And back off of Max. Unlike you, he’s one of the many, many good liberals. Part of our liberal core here at PK.
Calling a senator more important than firefighters will get you nothing but bipartisan flaming. STUFGTFOESADITOP.
Oh please “amazing” Rando… (the only “amazing” thing about you is your ignorance).
If karma existed… Well we’d all be up S**T CREEK now wouldn’t we? Fortunately that’s voodoo BS with even less relevance than the big-guy-in-the-sky redneck garbage the right-wingers belch out so cut the crap and stop wishing death on me.
You know as well as I that the way to be successful in life is to get a college education and work hard to distinguish yourself as a thinking, sentient individual who is able to lead others… I would *presume* that as a fellow Liberal that you have paid that cost (as I am sure Maxwell has, though he’s slacking a bit) and I would appreciate it if you would acknowledge my intelligence as well by not trying to make fire fighters out to be “heroes worthy of a senator’s salary” for saving kittens and squirting water onto fires, thank you very much…
I don’t hate fire fighters, but come on people they aren’t gods amongst men because they can hose a burning house down or climb a ladder! How much thinking does *that* take anyways? ANY IDIOT COULD STOP A FIRE, but it takes dedication and hard work over the course of years to become a representative, and as such they get paid more… And SHOULD be paid more!
Come on now, get real.
Fine. YOU go “squirt water on a fire” it if it’s so easy, asshole. I have a college education. Didn’t do much good for me. And I refuse to acknowledge the supposed intelligence of someone so clueless about the world and so fvcking elitist about said intelligence. All the intelligence in the world means NOTHING if you’re just a total asshole to whom nobody wants to listen.
I’ll ask you again, Again, wtf do you do that’s so goddamn important?
And one more thing. I have no problem with you not believing in religion, but you can GFY if you’re gonna sit there and mock me for having beliefs. You’re pathetic. You’re not liberal. You’re not conservative. You’re just an asshole.
slam. dunk.
*crickets*
-
Apparently nothing worth mentioning..
Again, I’m going to have to disagree with you here. It may take years of hard work and senators may be great men (excluding, of course, the corrupt ones), but firefighters put their lives at risk for the sake of others, and do it for a living . Again, you really need to rethink your opinion on people who do jobs for lower pay and are willing to put their lives at risk for others every day- somebody has to work in the trenches, doing the little things for people- someone has to be willing to do that, and not always look at the big picture, or the large groups, and they deserve all the respect we can give them for that.
“You know as well as I that the way to be successful in life is to get a college education and work hard to distinguish yourself as a thinking, sentient individual who is able to lead others…”
Again, you’re missing the point. Even though they may not be college educated, for whatever reason, doesn’t mean they don’t deserve to be just as successful as a senator. Just because you’re not the leader, or even an officer of, the army, doesn’t mean you aren’t a part of the cause, and doing the dirty work that someone has to do can often be much harder than leading, and making those hard decisions. They deserve to succeed just as much as that leader, even if they aren’t as big or as important or as distinguished as him, they do the hard work, and their job directly helps people.
By the way “How much thinking does *that* take anyways? ANY IDIOT COULD STOP A FIRE”- but how many idiots do you know willing to run into a burning building just to save lives other than their own?
(By the way, his name is “The Amazing Rando” because he is F*CKING AMAZING. Unlike you.)
“By the way, his name is “The Amazing Rando” because he is F*CKING AMAZING. Unlike you.”
*snifs* You like me. You really really like me.
Yeah you’re pretty cool, but what happened to that Eric guy?
He was delicious.
-Pats belly suspiciously-
Not cool man. That guy was nice to me when I wanted to become a regular. Helped me make fun of people on roflrazzle for awhile. Gave me confidence! Look where I am now.
*tear*
Not cool Trogdor.
Well, I crapped him out as a shiny, hard diamond named
Randdoooooo, so it all turned out okay.
He’s new, he’s better, he’s faster, he’s stronger.
His anger more focused, his repressed shameless librul tendencies more projected, and his torching of trolls more streamlined.
A beautiful thing, isn’t it?
Well when you’re crapping diamonds, it makes the pain much more bearable. Do you need someone who knows how to move those sort of goods?
I just might. How much for one the size of Everest? (Hey, guess what I just did to Jupiter for this thing?
)
That reminds me. Two words, Igor: Colon cleanse. Get on it.
I’m not sure I would know what to do to put out a fire if it were one that flared up suddenly and was a lot bigger than I expected it to be.
I’m pretty sure my first instinct would be to panic. I think I would need some training to know just what to do if my grill were to go kablooie or a lit kerosene lamp got knocked over or a lit tiki torch fell on my wooden deck.
I’m pretty my first response would be loud, vulgar, and in higher registers than I ordinarily converse. And I have a master’s degree.
Ok, so you got the college education. When are you planning on distinguishing yourself as a thinking, sentient individual who is able to lead others? It doesn’t appear that you’ve been putting forth any effort to accomplish that, based on your comments.
Yeah, insulting others for not being supposedly as intelligent as him isn’t exactly the way to lead.
Hell, I’ve had more coherent arguments with the guy down in the park who talks to aliens and wears a necklace of chicken bones.
But does he pop open an Enfamil? Hey, can someone pass me a nice cold Enfamil? I’m kinda thirsty.
I’m all out, Rando. Um…how about a Similac? Isomil?
Sure, I’m not picky. Got any meth?
Do you snort meth? I have no idea what you do with meth.
When I hath a meth around the houth, I cleanth it up.
I’m not sure what you do with meth either, I just know that you can make it out of stuff you can get at WalMart, the process is dangerous and stinky, and sometimes the labs blow up, so you want them at least a block away from your house.
I should go to my old neighborhood and ask…well, anybody on the ol’ meth strip mall.
I invite you to go to your local Firefighter’s Station/Hall w/e and inquire to them as to how much training and education you might need in order to put out a fire. More than you think.
Representatives were something else before they were in politics… mostly lawyers or political science-types. Not saying that doesn’t take a certain level of education and dedication to achieve – far from it. Quite a bit. LSATs are challenging. I encourage you to try THEM, too.
But comparing these two disciplines is apples and oranges. It can’t be done. I don’t expect my local firefighter chief to suddenly run for congress (though that HAS happened) and neither do I expect my local congressman to save my house in SoCal from burning to the ground from wildfires.
I tell you something, though… I’m more thankful for the firefighter that saved the house I scrimped and saved and worked hard for the past few decades to buy… than I am for the clowns in congress that want to raise my taxes so their budgets won’t dry up when they retire from office and are guaranteed their huge pensions for the simple fact that they were the popular vote at the time. Paid well for the job they do? Sure. They’re helping to run the country. paid well LONG after they’ve left the office and been replaced? WTF for? Hell no. Sorry. Firefighters get nothing when they retire other than a base pension and whatever they were able to get out of their unionized savings.
Like I said… the two can’t be compared. Apples and over-priced oranges.
That brought a tear to my eye. You, sir, totally WIN!
“ANY IDIOT COULD STOP A FIRE, but it takes dedication and hard work over the course of years to become a representative,”
Really? What did Patrick Kennedy do, besides get born with the right last name and move out of state?
You’re being an elitist dipsh*t.
I can’t even discuss this with you anymore, you ignorant tool.
Senator your 2:30 is here for your booze and whores lunch
“Tell him I’ll be right there..”
busy cutting the fire fighters budget? ok sir i will tell the butt secks lobby you will be down in a moment
After the whore’s lunch will he be taking a whore’s bath?
Only if he’s in Re-ho-bath.
Mangy!? HOW DARE YOU SIR!!!
And what pet store sells a kitten for $10?!?!
Yeah seriously… I’m hungry!
Dang, I had the same train of thought…
“Kitty treats, kitty treats
Oh so sweet, they make the kitty tastier to eat!”
I know, I paid $50 for mine and she was a preowned model. I didn’t even get a warranty!
I paid $80 for my kitteh Milo. On the serious side though he was found at only two weeks old, his mommy had passed away and he and four of his brothers and sisters were huddling around her (it was early February) trying to stay warm when the human society found them.
Makes me cry every time I think about it.
*sniff* That is very sad
My mom got my wife a “basement cat” for a graduation present. Worst. Present. Ever. That cat is 100 kinds of dumb. And has the stinkiest poo ever. And he’s less than a year old and is like 15 pounds already.
Kitteh poo advice – try changing the brand of gooshy food you feed it, or switch to a dry food, and make sure it gets more water.
It *does* eat dry food and plenty of water. He’s just a toxic waste machine.
Maybe he’s allergic to something in the dry food you’re feeding him? Have you tried switching brands?
I didn’t know it was possible to be allergic to Cat Chow. I could try the indoor version. I dunno.
I think Purina Cat Chow has soy in it, which is not an uncommon allergen for cats. Could be something else. Cat poo isn’t supposed to be that horrible, though!
Go for either Iams or Eukanuba..
Oh hells bells. That shit’s expensive. LOL
True, but you don’t have to give them as much either..
You could also experiment with other inexpensive brands. If it’s an additive or something that’s affecting him, it may be hit-or-miss.
Eddie, you don’t know these cats. Or more accurately, furry pigs. I might try another brand, but the other cats tend to be…picky. The last time I switched brands didn’t go well.
I think that most politicians deserve respect for how hard they try to make the country a better place, but for a vegan, aren’t you being a little anti-animal rights? Senators try to prevent injustice and make our country better for all of us, but firemen run into accidents that will happen regardless of how great our country is, and try to save the lives of people, and sometimes animals, by risking their own. Having the guts and heart to do that should at the very LEAST earn you enough to live very well.
Agreed.
I don’t get how this is right-wing. Power is power and everyone up there wants it. Right and Left are just different wings of the same bird.
Why would a man (or woman) put their own life on the line for another human being? (The kitten is representitive…..for those to ignorant to understand). Maybe…just maybe… they care about humanity! If our senators cared half as much they wouldn’t be giving themselves pay raises in the middle of one of the worst recessions the US has ever seen. Any of you that believe the gov. is going to save you don’t bother to call 911 if you have a fire, a car accident or any life threatning incident……… just call your local senator.
And you named yourself after a colonic?
You have earned an Epic Fail for being a retard. Congrats!
Speaking from experience I see..
Well, you know, often they’ll let the previous recipient present to this year’s award winner.
Yeah, I do believe I was there when *you* got the last one…
Original insult epic fail.
Actually, no, that wouldn’t have been me. Now put your helmet back on and scoot along.
Senators really don’t make that much……
Maybe, but toss in the fact that they get healthcare for the rest of their lives plus a salary and I would say there’s more pluses than minuses.
It’s still not enough considering what they do for Americans…
LMAO!
I think they get paid too much for what they do TO Americans.
Really? How much do you think senators should make? You have my attention.
I’m not going to nominate a figure, but my friends and family have often speculated that politicians should get performance-related pay. You know, they get paid on the number of positive things they actually do for the people, rather than just for being the “(honourable) member for [area]“.
That could lead to a really ugly partisan battle. I like it!
$1-3 million a year to start, with benefits (health, dental, apartment, etc) so they don’t take lobbyist money… More money if they prove to be actively helping *all* the people of America to prosper, etc…
Simple enough.
So what do firefighters get for DIRECTLY saving the lives of other citizens by risking their own? Because that seems like it’s worth almost as much to me.
You think that paying them more will keep the from taking lobbyist money? Are you INSANE?
I’ve got an idea. How about if we pay our congressmen a good salary in the lower six-figure area like we currently DO, give them a good benefit package, like we currently DO, provide them with an office and a staff, like we currently DO, and, oh, I don’t know, make it illegal for them to accept favors/money/bribes/hookers/weekends in Vegas from lobbyists?
People who are primarily motivated by money are never going to be satisfied even if you throw an exorbitant salary (funded by MY damn tax dollars) at them; they’ll go on sucking up as much extra as they possibly can.
Sponges on society, Diss?
That’s just not exciting enough.
Well…how about if we set them on fire, then?
FIREY sponges on society?
… I guess.
But, no one is intelligent enough to put them out!
Somehow I don’t think sponges are very flammable!
It’s all in what you soak the sponges in, Duckie.
For example, sponges soaked in troll froth is HIGHLY flammable.
The only think simple in that comment was you…
Very funny pittypat. Do any of you really know how much firefighters make? Look it up.
The reply button is your friend.
Oh I didn’t disagree with the content of your post, jpt. I didn’t like the preachy pendantic sweeeeping almost care trolling tone, e.g. “The kitten is representitive…..for those to (sic) ignorant to understand.” A bit self-aggrandizing, in my book. But hey it’s just a book.
And people don’t read anymore, so it’s not like that book has any meaning.
But apparently if he can’t afford decent health insurance on a firefighter’s wage it’s because he’s lazy and wants to leech of others, expecting those hard working senators and bank CEOs to pay more tax to bail him out. Sigh.
Can you clarify?
The implication recently has been that people who struggle to get decent health coverage are simply lazy, and want hard-working people to foot the bill for their healthcare rather than bettering themselves. Firemen are an excellent example of a job filled with hard working people, who perform a vital service, yet receive a wage which puts them firmly in the area where people often end up failed by the current US system.
Huh?
Oh, you were being sarcastic.
(remember the 6th rule (probably) of the internet: If you’re being sarcastic in a post, add “/sarcasm” or “[/sarcasm]” at the end, so people know you’re being sarcastic. Otherwise, there will always be people who misunderstand your post and think you’re being serious).
I think the “apparently” inferred that I was talking about other peoples views.
Em, the sarcasm in Ceefax’s 12:07 in this strand is blatently obvious (well at least if you’re not an American conservatroll).
Well for regulars it is, but I don’t recognize that guy. I personally think his sort of question was valid.
You know, firefighters generally get pretty decent benefits, as they’re municipal employees.
They should. I’d probably respect my senator more if he jumped into a burning building more often to save kittens… =)
Agreed.
I’d respect my Senator more if he would run into a burning building and stay there.
Comment of the Day goes to Eddie!
Thanks, E. BTW – great avatar!
Our local classic rock station is playing the Beatles remasters released today IN THEIR ENTIRETY all day today. We’ve made it up to Rubber Soul.
There was a day when I had hoped they would reunite. 1980 was one of the saddest years for me. Aside from Pink Floyd in my CD stacker, I have four Beatles CD’s as well with Rubber Soul being #1.
I have a really hard time picking a favorite Beatles album. Now they’re on Revolver and that’s another really good one. As for Pink Floyd, well, we just named my two favorite bands.
Excellent! Opposite, yet the same..
That’s the third caption in a week saying “man who rescues kitty < god". It's getting kinda lame. And however brave it may be, I'd rather see that guy helping humans than saving kittens.
And yet still less lame than saying “This is lame; I’d rather see the same man doing something else”.
Something else….while wearing less clothing, maybe? Just a suggestion.
Not really…
Kittens are NOT sacred. This is not Egypt!
If it was you would have been stoned by now.. consider yourself lucky.
I think Again needs to either get stoned or be stoned. Either one might help him get the stick out of his ass.
I wouldn’t waste MY hooch on him.. I say just stone him and be done with it.
Well I think the kitty is less < God too.
I realize you meant to use the other arrow.
Does anyone else think that this kitten looks really pissed? like it’s saying, “you woke me up for THIS?”
Nope. I thought the kitten is wearing it’s ‘You die now’ face.
Ya know… the sheer number of people offended by this pic “Dur Senatorz workz hard 4 theyr muneez n lazee firefighterz r socialistz’ makes it a closet win. =)
But yeah… either less cutesey pictures, put ‘em on LOLCats, change the name of the site so that no further confusion can be made or all of the above. So we can all get back to the left-v-right insanity. lol
No. There’s ONE person saying that. And we don’t like him.
That’s right.. let’s call this Egypt and stone him now!
*uses bulldozer to heft boulder*
just show me where to drop this and i think we should be again-troll free.
He’d probably come back as zombie-again-troll. This one is just too stupid to take the hint that both sides hate him equally.
*click*
It’s okay. I’ve got my boomstick ready for zombie trolls.
Opposite sides of the fence with a common goal. I’m liking it..
Sounds like the beginning of a buddy cop movie. Eddie is the no-nonsense cop who always gets his man. Rando is the edgy cop who won’t play by the rules.
Both with the mission to keep the lawn clear of dumbasses..
“Dammit, Rando, that grenade blew a huge hole in the lawn!”
“But it also blew that dumbass back to his maker.”
“Yeah, good point. Jane, Charro! You two wanna come fix this big ass hole Rando made in the lawn?”
“I found another one!!”
*BOOM*
“Oops. That was a squirrel.”
-Swoops in and lights fire to the dirt hole, taking care not to light a blade of grass on fire-
Hey! Hey Eddie! Doesn’t it look like you have a meteor in your lawn now! Isn’t that cool?
Where is Again? I need him to come troll me.
I’m getting hungry, and his errors are so many in such short posts that he just may be the best food source around!
Igor, even at the state mental hospital, after a while they do notice when a patient’s gone missing. I’m sure an orderly found Again playing on the computer at the nurses’ station and took them back to the dayroom for arts & crafts.
Arts & crafts day always makes me think of Happy Gilmore.
“Anyone else’s fingers hurt? I didn’t think so.”
can i be the “too hot to really be a police chief” token female character? i of course have to drive a fast car, wear skirts that are too short and manage to save the day during the big firefight… all while wearing a ball gown because i was at the mayor’s something or other celebration when all hell breaks loose.
oh, and eds has to say “i’m too old for this shit” at least 5 times an hour.
How did you know? It drives my wife crazy..
lethal weapon: the PK edition
Does that make me Mel Gibson? Okay, just as long as I don’t have to direct Passion of the Christ.
*quickly scribbles out the title and replaces it with The Life of Brian Redux*
Oh hell, Shorty, I forgot you.. yes, you can be the token too-hot-for-words cop. But you better make sure you do your part in keeping the damn lawn clear.
-
I’m too old for this shit..
*pumps fist* yes!
i’ll shoot anyone who gets on the lawn. blood’s sposed to be good for clover… and clover makes for a nice soft, pretty green lawn.
Can I be Bruce, the cop with the strange blood colored eyes and a tendency to say “You won’t like me when I’m angry… Nobody likes me when I’m angry! Especially my wife!”
(Hint: Iggler is trying to imply that the Hulk is really just an alcoholic with an ego)
Oh, and can I keep the consummate V’s, more differenter S, the beefy arm for good measure, and the wings if I’m a wing-a-ling dragon cop?
In for a penny, in for a pound! Welcome aboard, Bruce..
Dude, he’s supposed to be the rookie! Who else is gonna be the rookie????
Oh! Can we make AGAIN play the rookie, and then kill him off in the first episode, but tell him it has to “look real”, and that’s why we’re loading bullets into the sniper rifle?
No, no, no. Again is the inept villain we successfully blow the shit out of in the first 10 minutes of the movie. The real villain is still at large. You know who I’m talking about. And we NEED a rookie!
Ericdo, why don’t we just have BT do it? I’m sure he’ll only cost us like, a handful of granola…
i nominate phaelin as the rookie. i think he’s close to tygor’s age… and he’s not around enough to complain.
Fair enough. That works out well.
I get to be the tough/sexy-but-nurturing coffeeshop waitress in the cops’ favorite hangout, who dispenses coffee, pie, and sarcasm while inadvertently giving them the one piece of information they need to solve the crime.
do you have badly teased hair and a voice that sounds like you smoke a pack of cigarettes an hour? that’s clearly in the casting information for the coffeeshop waitress…
I can work on the hair. *grabs Aquanet*
Hey, Helen, ever hear about a gang of lawn vandals? We just need one piece of info to bust this case wide open.
The waitress name has to be Helen. It’s in the script.
Lawn vandals? Why, just last week I caught those little jerks performing unnatural acts on my garden gnomes. They took off, but I got their tag number….oh, and will this video I took with my cellphone help?
Ed, make sure to leave Helen a big tip.
*drops a 10 spot on the counter for the free cup o’ joe*

Now Helen, we want to know everything that goes on. Since you’re the eyes and ears of this backwater place, you know where all the bodies are buried. Any sign of rising and you give us a call toot sweet, k?

*dons smokey hat and shambles out the door*
I’m driving Ed! *crashes into a parked car*
I meant to do that.
I’d dock your pay for that, but we both know you work for peanuts and that won’t buy a new car.
-
*grabs bike out of the shed in the back*
Yeah, I’m already paying the Chief back for destroying her boat.
Wait, what? Boat? Where the hell are you floating a boat? Have the zombies already gotten to you?
-
*holds up fingers*
How many do you see?
75. Is that bad?
Well, that or the “uniform that you must get out a spraycan because no way could you get it on otherwise” look. You could pull off any of them.
*glares*
i see you’ve been looking through my closet again.
@Amazing Rando
somebody find my glasses – i thought that read broomstick and was going to demand it back and yell at you to get out of my closet –
Hey! I’m not in the closet! Wait…oh shit that came out wrong.
sure you’re not in the closet, and you better not be pulling the pins out of your voodoo doll either (unless you’re sticking them in agains or one of the other all for me and none for you trolls)
Wait, what?
I really said that out loud and then looked at your comment. That made me laugh even harder.
Again said something about Karma being nothing but a stupid, fail voodoo practice, or something?
I don’t know, I can’t keep track of EVERYTHING that comes out of that f*cking idiot’s mouth.
Oh, yeah, that’s right. I forgot about that. LOL
close enough to what he was ranting about. and since i don’t have a dungeon under my trailer house to haul obnoxious trolls down into, so i have to make do with my broom closet and little facsimiles
Ok look, I’m a crazy cat lady; no one loves teh kittehs more than I, but even I say firemen deserve respect and decent salaries for MUCH more than pet rescue.
Dude. I just looked at upcoming. Apparently captioning firefighters with cats is just warming up. And they don’t get any funnier either.
I have a feeling the admins just gave me the finger for the e-mail I sent about the firefighter/cat lols..
I tried to link, but no go. Apparently some (ahem) group pronounced today, 9/9/09, as “no cats on the internet day” or something so they’re starting a new catlol site in protest. I dunno. See ICHC and lookalikes.
That sounds dramatic. And irrelevant. Why are people bothering with such nonsense?
I tried reading the comments on LOLCats, got down to the third one and my head exploded. How in God’s name can people write that way and have it make any sense?!?!

E., I’ll see you on the Dark Side Of The Moon…
I know, Eddie, how I wish, how I wish you were here…on the Dark Side of the Moon of course. (prays for a Pink Floyd post cascade)
One of these days, Rando…
…We’re gonna cut these trolls into little pieces. Careful with that axe, Eugene!
*Runs like hell*
You run. I’m waiting for the worms.
You’re skating on thin ice, son..
What can I say? These are the happiest days of our lives.
But there is no more blue sky, goodbye..
That’s my fault. It was one of my turns.
But, strangers passing in the street by chance, two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me.
I’m having a hard time understanding you, Eddie. All I hear are Echoes. True story. We were all coming home from my mom’s house last night and passed a truck full of pigs. My wife (not a Floyd fan) was rather confused when I said, “Haha, charade you are!”
LOL!! That’s funny.. I used to have images of a plane crashing every time we passed LAX. Never mentioned it to anyone though.
Was it a soul in tension that’s learning to fly?
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter, you piper,
You prisoner, and shine!
Oops. I reached for the secret too soon.
So quit crying for the moon, ok?
With this look in my eyes like black holes in the sky, I’m having a hard time even SEEING the moon.
It’s ok, just know that the sun is the same in the relative way, but you’re older. And shorter of breath and one day closer to death
I’m not worried about it. Life is long. There’s time to kill today. Hey, WTF!!! 10 years just got behind me!!!
Oh please, just dig the hole and forget the sun..
I just can’t. Out of the way, it’s a busy day, I’ve got things on my mind.
One of these days I’m going to cut you into little pieces.
Ouch, that’s rough.
Fvck all that. We’ve got to get on with these.
Got to compete with the wily Japanese.
Practice, the same as how you learn to read and write any other language properly.
Never mind whether or not you like LOLspeek and/or would like some LOL sites free of cats and/or LOLspeek, how can anyone actually dislike LOLcats?
I saw that.
Please kill me.
*pukes* Oh fer fu(k’s sake….
i saw that too. the only remotely humorous one is the lap dog one. but i might be biased because
1 – it’s not a fecking cat
2 – the soldier’s kinda cute
3 – i have lap dogs that behave that way at home and i loves them lots!
Who deserves the salary, the kitten or the fire fighter?
Senator means “A member of an assembly possessing legislative powers”. So i think he deserves the high paid salary, senator does so much of things for us..
It’s so very, very happy?
Enough ‘firefighters saving cats’ front page pictures already! Isn’t this like the third one in a few weeks?
We get it. It’s wonderful that firefighters save cats!
No, a senator should get the salary of a fire-fighter
Firefighters: Media-made heros since 2001. Funny how they are God’s little helpers now, but really werent thought twice about before nine-eleven.
“Happy happy joy joy
Happy happy joy joy
Happy happy joy joy
Happy happy joy joy
Happy happy joy joy
Happy happy joy joy
Happy happy joy joy joy”
…sung a thousand times in different shades…
Yes that kitten does deserve the salary of a Senator.
