From “Inherently Funny Words”:
Dave Barry contrasts the phrases “Richard Nixon wearing a necktie” with “Richard Nixon wearing a neck weasel”, and “Scientists have discovered a 23rd moon orbiting Jupiter” with “Scientists have discovered a giant weasel orbiting Jupiter.” Barry concludes that “You can improve the humor value of almost any situation by injecting a weasel into it.”

We eagerly await a Greasemonkey script that will do that automagically to a Comments thread.

Actually it’s the Great Mosque of Cordoba. You’d think the name would have tipped them off.

thanks for the research,aka, I thought it was the Alhambra, but I was reall pissed up that weekend. Are they trying to be ironic or are they really tha stupid?

“Hey Colorado, I know a GREAT cigar place, and they ship. All hand rolled beautifully in store, and the guys are from Cuba even if their cigars aren’t. La Herencia. I should find a link. They’re in Ybor City, Tampa FL, pretty close to “The Idiot Stone” (the paver that says “Evolution: The Opiate of the Uninformed”). But really, fabulous cigars from a small family owned shop. Very nice.”

Thanks Lex. I’ve actually visited that place (or one very similar?) in the Ybar. Ah, cubano’s, cafecito and cigars. Good stuff.

Still, real Cuban cigars have that forbidden fruit aspect to them. Part of the allure. The thrill of sneaking a bunch thru customs. Sticking it to the man. Similar to sneaking into bars as a 16 year old. Teh taboo…

Sadly, my advancing age has sharply curtailed the tobacco consumption (and most other vices). For the best, I suppose. Not that I would turn one down, mind you.

And who mentioned Zionism? Talk about flying off the handle.

Look up the USS Liberty sometime, and AIPAC. Just like US conservative politics (abortion rights, etc), religion is the smokescreen, it’s really just realpolitik. No boogie-boogie conspiracies required, unless they make you feel warm inside.

I did think it was amusing that the Spanish one (December) actually imposed a crescent on a building that was either built by Muslims, or was at least inspired by them (I think it’s the alhambra).

Actually it's the Great Mosque of Cordoba. You'd think the name would have tipped them off. shake Djibouti I'd love to see that in a headline someday, that and Rice goes mushy

Lex, you make a good point:

Shorter Wingnut: All that is human and civilized and dear will be brutally raped and murdered unless we abolish civil rights, bomb indiscriminately, and stop the brownies from breeding so many vermin offspring. Why won’t so-called “moderate” Muslims join us?

Rufus–I just hope that the extreme wingers will keep marginalizing themselves so that normal folks can discuss actual religious extremism (including Islamic) without being accused of being wingnuts. These people think that anyone more to the left don’t even notice things like the Saudi rape victim story or the Mohammed Teddy Bear nonsense in Sudan, then act surprised that Muslims don’t comment on their sites expressing a “moderate” view. The mind reels.

I honestly don’t think many of these folks spend much time outside of the web.

Surely you’ve all read enough wingnut blogposts to understand that the significance of the Muslim population of Ireland is that Ireland is entirely under the control of Euro-Leftist commies who want to abolish Christianity and institute Sharia law, and within 50 years, through a combination of governmental decrees and simple breeding rates, Ireland will be 100% Muslim.

Sheesh! Do I have to explain this every time?

Let’s not even address that ZIONISM ISN’T A RELIGION.

Looks like one of the fanboys didn’t get the message.

That idiot’s got a book to pimp and came to the Ron Paul cult after he’d already gotten the spam habit.
