Army Dinner Jacket is Number 1!!
But number one of which category?
Does it matter which category?
Well I figure he is number one in the Ahmanutjob category, but maybe not in the ‘reasonably competent leader of a country’ one?
He’s number one in my mind when it comes to batshitcrazydickheads. Right underneath him is Dick Cheney.
Try someone who thinks he can negotiate with Akhmadenajad without preconditions. Of course, that would be an inexperienced, narcissistic, in-over-his-head batshitcrazydickhead.
*shudder*
Who’s fixing the mistakes of the previous leaders of the country.
No one! Call for teleprompter, teleprompter can do it. Send in teleprompter! Here it comes to save the day:

On a more serious note, Obama is the first “leader” of the country whose fixes are so obviously going to make the situation far worse. FDR might be forgiven, at least for the first five years of his administration, for dragging a recession into a depression. He could arguably be said to be trying a different solution, socialism. But when it dragged on for another 5 years, at some point he should have realized his solutions had failed. He did not. It was only WWII that got us out of the great depression, had it not been for WWII, FDR might of had us in depression for several years after his death. Going back to Obama, I dont want to be in a great depression until 2018 and beyond. Of course that assumes his re-election, but given the debt he has racked up already, the effects of his policies might become clear early in his administration. Carter’s mistakes led to high inflation, stagnation, and a 21 percent mortgage rate. When the economy gets that bad, it becomes increasingly hard to blame it on your predecessor.
I’d ask for some evidence of this, but my horse won’t need new bedding for the next 6 months after I collected your last assortment of straw men.
Oh don’t worry, the evidence will find you. Well, actually, it will find your wallet.
I decided to start making my straw men out of gold in January, …when it was $250 an ounce cheaper. They are more expensive to make now, but, I figure, hey, by the time Obama leaves office or the country collapses they will be worth much more.
Tax the rich – there’s your solution. Particularly those that started the economy down this path in the first place by exploiting their workers, treating consumers like dipshit cashcows, and bribing (oh, I’m sorry, “issuing graft to”) politicians in order to deregulate the economy so they could suck more from the dried out tit that is America.
Socialism, regulated in its proper form, coupled with Democracy and Capitalism could never work! No, not at all. Especially in places like Sweden or Canada.

Whoah, girl got balls!
This one actually IS photoshopped.

Still. Very brave.
Totally off topic, but doesn’t that one character in the liscense plate look like an upside down heart?
ahaha.. that’s funny thing.
you go girl show that ass you have a life, up yours mahmoud ahmedinejad
And no one ever saw her again…….
Bet she’s one of the 5 sentenced to be executed for disputing the fraudulent election
Hey, she got a trial then! Beats the random street execution Neda got…
In a kangaroo court? I would rather have it over quickly.
Oh, you said election.. at first I thought you said erection!
*perks up* Erection?
It’s one way to uplift the country’s spirits.
Is this trying to insinuate that Tienanmen Square was photoshopped too?
Win!
Chopsticked!
Pu-pu plattered!
moo goo gai panned!
Ipso facto dim sum
Squid erat demonstrat yum!
etu pittypat? etu?
And a nasi goreng in a peartree..
You know it would be funnier if she actually gave him the finger, but we learned LAST time this pic came up that she didn’t really give him the finger. That being said, she still has balls of steel.
Just standing in front of his vehicle is defiant!
hm i wonder where you could blocking the Vehicle of a Country Head of State without getting beating by his Bodyguards?
Thats a good point, Akhmadinejad must feel pretty confident among his people. Same with his protective service. Our Secret Service has gone completely over the top today.
on meth you can =-D
This picture has been up before?! Say it ain’t so..
You don’t remember this one?
perhaps if she was a belgian flag people would remember
She should put on a bikini top and ride a bomb.
*puts on bikini and rides bomb*
That’s awesome.
I remember Rando. I was being sarcastic.. Damn interwebs.
I thought maybe you were being sarcastic, but I didn’t want to take that chance. Plus, it was my first attempt at embedding a link, and I needed an excuse to do so.
I am honoured to have been your first, Rando.
It looks like she is giving him the thumb.
In some cultures that’s even worse!
a the fake again,
google it:
iran fake middlefinger
give her a stone cold Steve Austin finger next time
i hate the stupid faker he lower her courage action by photoshopping adding a western gesture which iranian dont use i think its a irainen “middlefinger” in the original.
i know and when i love smart liers he bring brave in the side of microsoft with pictures by being in where they aren’t massachusetts but i really disagree anyway if and why.
Makes perfect sense to me.
James Joyce FTW..
Can’t you see how she put the rose in her hair and how she asked him with her eyes to ask again yes and then he asked her would she yes to say yes and he put his arms around her yes and drew her down to him so she could feel his heart going like mad and yes he said yes I will Yes.
Stream of consciousness is lazy writing.
Ooh, ooh, ooh! Stream of not-really-consciousness writing is interesting, though! I tend to solve crossword puzzles in bed, and if I kinda fall asleep while still holding the pen near the paper I can find strange things written there the next day.
What’s even better is stream of not-really-consciousness talking. I’ll be drifting off, half asleep, and say something completely nonsensical to my wife and a few seconds later think, wait, what did I say???
Heh. I did that in a meeting once, which I was chairing. I woke up to find 12 people staring at me in horror. I still don’t know what I said as I drifted off… that was some party the night before.
or involuntary reflexive movements of arms or legs as you fall asleep, but before your motor movements are shut down.
I’ve been known to do quite a bit of that in my sleep actually. Supposedly as a part of restless leg syndrome or some shit. (Yes, it’s real. It’s REAL, goddammit!!! LOL)
My brother used to talk in his sleep. You could carry on a pretty good conversation with him, but at some point his mind would realize something was fishy and he would wake up.
It is real! I did a sleep study years ago and the doctor said it was like I was running 28k marathon everynight in my sleep.
It is DEFINITELY real, and it’s made worse by pregnancy. It’s the damnedest thing….
I sympathize with you, Eds. It sucks majorly.
“there’s the door”. hopefully you didn’t say that. from experience, not a good thing to just throw out there.
No, it was something completely nonsensical. I can’t remember what it was at all. My wife was just like “uh…what?”
burger cheese milk tits no please get air problem love ha.
“What?”
thats how i picture it.
ROFLMAO. Sort of. It was a real sentence but the sentence was complete nonsense. I can’t remember what it was, but I think it was along the lines of “Did Jason ever get down from the church balcony?”
My college boyfriend woke me up yelling in his sleep, “Oh where are you, shining hypotenuse of the diagonal?!1!”
Oh, I have some real beauties.. I fell asleep on the couch and when my wife woke me up I went to the corner and started singing the Star Spangled Banner.. another time it was Anchors Aweigh.
There’s others, but those are mostly flashbacks which scares the bejeezus out of the wife.
And Mr. J. was so terribly, terribly lazy.
For sure. He didn’t even manage to write ten novles, did he? Compare that to someone with a bit of work ethics and discipline, like Barbara Cartland, with 660+ novels.
Joyce? Bum and hobo. Pfft.
Well he did write Finnegan Can’t Wake up and its sequel, You Listless Slob.
And that most famous one, “Ule” … “Uesl” … “Useless”.
And that spacey little novella, The Dumblondiners.
I have tried several times to read Ulysses, and it just doesn’t work for me.
Ditto, my favorite author (one of them anyway) just released a new novel, for which I gladly shelled out big bucks for the hardcover version. However, in his new novel, he has decided to use this Joycean device where the characters speak an almost-english language, and the words that aren’t english require a love of poetry and post modern literature to be able to understand. I’ve only read the first fifty pages, and the book now sits unread, under my bed. (Neal Stephenson is the author)
Anathem?
The last one I tried reading was Cryptonomicon.. I remember being confused and I don’t have that book anymore. I plan to try again sometime.
On the other hand.. Snow Crash is one of my favourite books of all time. OF ALL TIME!
I liked Cryptonomicon. And loved Snow Crash, and Diamond Age somewhere in between those emotions.
Diamond Age was damn good.
I loved everything Stephenson wrote until Anathem. His “System of the World” trilogy is absolutely brilliant in it’s attempt to fuse an excellent story with a description of financial theory. I just wish I could get into Anathem; most of his books leave me thinking that someone just a little bit smarter than me gets a whole ‘nother level of the book that I’m too dim to perceive.
I have not yet read the System of the World trilogy. It’s on the list.
Wait.. *looks at list*
Isn’t that the name of the third book in the Baroque Cycle?
Hmm, maybe you’re right and the trilogy is actually the “Baroque Cycle”. I’d better follow up on that.

I liked stream of consciousness, but it has to be heard rather than read, especially if the stream is from another age. We read John Dos Passos, but until we heard it, I think a lot of the references went by most of the class.
are you saying literature shouldn’t be read; instead it should be heard?
Sometimes, yep. To hear someone like ee cummings read well is a far more rewarding than simply reading it, even if you read it aloud yourself. It’s meant to be an auditory experience.
Come to think of it, that is probably true with most written word. Hearing Lee J. Cobb do “Death of a Salesman” brought it to life in a way that I never could have duplicated by reading it 100 times.
Damnit. I agree with you. Promise not to make that happen again, it scares me.
As well you should be scared, very scared. But I think you’re safe until you begin to agree with me on politics.
Indeed.
I love audio books, and a highlight of the day is at 11.30 every weekday when they read a book (as a serial, not one book per day). Currently it’s “Het huis van de moskee” by Kader Abdolah (The House of the Mosque). Great way to hear books I’d never get the idea to buy or loan to read on my own.
I don’t really have time to sit with books, but I get through many by listening to them while I walk, wait in line, etc. I love it. I also get a digest of the New York Times on weekdays. There are “frequent listener” programs that make it more affordable – just download to itunes, then onto the mp3, et voila.
I agree completely. The original image is truly moving and meaningful. Whoever altered it for the sake of a cheap gag should be ashamed of themselves.
But nothing can undermine that woman’s courage.
do jpeg artifacts each time it happen increasing too? O_O
What?
do you get when you cross
A chicken in a rubber sui?
*suit.
a kinky chicken?
a WAL-MART chicken dinner??
Poulet dîner chez Tar-zshay?
The El Pollo Loco guy when he takes off that human suit of his.
Back to relevant discussion. I think the photo is ’shopped. A gallant effort if authentic, but it somehow doesn’t ring true.
*points up to the previous comments where the shopping of the photo is discussed*
We had such colored revolutions in Ukraine, Georgia. Total bogus. The chick is hawt, though.
Needs moar kaboom.
Heh, Ahmedinejad is just sitting there going WTF?
Ok, I’m officially bored. With all of the pictures to comment to, why are we getting recycled rubbish?
Because we’re saving the earth Eddie! Dammit, one crappy recycled lol at a time we lower our carbon footprint! It’s for the Earth!
Nah, screw that.. I’ll let my grandkids deal with it. Meanwhile, I want the funny, and I want it now!
This was a great thing to drink my coffee too. Girls rock! Especially that one. Oh, and her purse is really cute.
100 post is think her thumb(original iranian insult) was big!
Hadn’t we established this image was photoshopped the last time it came up? And didn’t it allude to Tianmen Square too? Seriously. We (the public) have a memory. We know it’s not original.
O, Brother, Where Art Thou?
I’ts just somewhere outta there.
This lol upsets DogHouseTreat.
It’s a Fake!

Iranians don’t use the middle finger for that gesture.
