The Old Cow
- This joke about Nancy Pelosi being an old cow is the funniest thing I’ve ever heard in my entire life. It’s particularly funny to a young, hunky stud like myself.
‘Shorter’ concept created by Daniel Davies and perfected by Elton Beard. We are aware of all Internet traditions.™
Holy fucking sheep shit FRIST!!!!!
Also.
La Surb likes old cows. Especially if they’re to old to run away when he drops his pants.
Ah don’ keer who y’are, ‘ats funny rahtchere
The solution to beaverboard is more secks.
BTW, to everyone–it’s OK to get off of the boat for this one. The water’s not very deep
‘I’m
Nancy Pelosi’s chauffeurDon Surber, and I’ve just killed the old cow‘m a douche gargling hog rapist.’HAR HAR
Fixxxled
This is from episode 14 of “Beverly Hillbillies” I believe.
Tintin, you are far too kind: that photo makes ol’ thumbhead appear to have a neck!
Comment offered without comment for our comments.
It’s funny because it’s mysogynistic and ageist.
Episode 14? I thought that was the one where Tinsdale sells Hathaway to a rich Middle-easterner?
In a weird way, this represents an advancement in civics education for the country at large. How many of these knuckle-dragging troglodytes ever knew who the Speaker of the House was before? Even when it was fucking Newt fucking Gingrich? Now they all do.
Scuse me, Drysdale.
True, maybe it was Hee Haw.
fucking Newt fucking Gingrich
That involves wetsuits and dildos, correct?
Ohh Ohh now you wanna make fun of the the Heartlanders. PeeJ must be docked an artichoke heartless.
“The water’s not very deep”
More like a damp towel.
From Billy Bob Dickbrain’s common taters, a choice example of reactionary Photoshop™ humor. Srsly, izzat the Tin Man?
Surbnormal, surbhuman and thoroughly insurbstantial.
OT, but has it occurred to these people who so hate hollywood elites that their greatest hero is a hollywood actor wh, een though he was in uniform in WWII never left the US and went home to his wife in Beverly Hills every night of the war?
…and went home to his wife in Beverly Hills every night of the war?
Except when he found a necktie on the doorknob. Then he had to go to a hotel while Nancy was blowing Sinatra.
Actually, Reagan was still married to Jane Wyman during the war, which means he went home to his wife but didn’t necessarily find her there.
Don Surber walks into a bar and orders a Double Entendre, so the bartender gives it to him.
You think Sarah Palin is pissed that Don didn’t identify her as the emailer?
BLARR-HARRR-T
holy schnizzle goddamed batman, he really looks like that!
You’re messing with the whole fantasy/reality confusion that they hold so dear.
I got a joke! I got a joke!
Nancy Pelosi was touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven car. Suddenly, the chauffeur throws her in a vat of acid. Then he blows up a bunch of liberals with great big explosions. Then he runs over Michael Moore. Then everybody thinks that he’s totally cool and babes think he’s hot. Then he runs over Michael Moore again and there are more explosions.
Fixed so well, I can’t see the mend! I can’t see the stove either!
The column originally read in its entirety: “Wanna hear a joke? Women’s rights!!!1!!!”
Dinsdale!
Too awesome. But remember that in math or philosophy “identity” means 1 = 1, and this is only for coastal elite latte fag France blargle flurmp pooopy slup.
Obama gets all the attention, but their seems to be a special breed of wingnut-hate for Pelosi. Part of that whole Evil Scary Bitchqueen archetype that they just can’t fucking let go of, even though their own ranks are stocked to the larders with ’em. But what’s a little cognitive dissonance between friends.
It never ceases to amaze me how easily these “people” are amused. I, on the other hand need something more substantial, like, “Palin/Some Other Meathead- 2012” to really tickle my fancy. Unlike this “old cow joke”, that one is current and good for the future, to be enjoyed for the next 3 years (at least). And, ATTS, dammit!
Totally sweet!
Murder is always hilarious!
What do you call a white guy surrounded by five black guys? Coach.
What do you call a black guy surrounded by five white guys? Mr. President.
dang, don surber has a pretty sweet job if all he has to do is publish unfunny “jokes” that other people email to him.

From teh comments:
Nancy Pelosi is 69. Heh.
A nice though OT example of creative misprision, which I feel obliged to pass on:
Nick Allen, in the Daily Torygraph, asserts that “Major Nidal Malik Hasan, the gunman who killed 13 at America’s Fort Hood military base, once gave a lecture to other doctors in which he said non-believers should be beheaded and have boiling oil poured down their throats.”
There is no source for the assertion, and a cursory browse of the Interducts turns up no source more primary than the Torygraph (or Allen by name). Given that one role of the newspaper in question within the Murdoch empire has traditionally been to print bullshit that can then be cited as authoritative in other journals within the stable, I am going for the “Made up from whole cloth” explanation until further evidence comes along.
Naturally, National Review reprints the story as an example of how political correctness suppresses important information (h/t Whiskey Fire). According to the inventive reading of one K. Lopez, “This happened at Walter Reed Medical Center, years before he would find himself at Fort Hood.”
Sadly, even within the fact-limited confines of Allen’s original narrative, he gives no date for the alleged lecture, other than that it occurred during Hasan’s tenure at WRMC, “where he worked for six years before arriving at Fort Hood in July”. It is almost as if Ms Lopez’s expectations of a shamefully long history of neglected red flags have blinded her to the words in front of her eyes.
I am eagerly awaiting the next re-telling of this story, once it has been given more artistic verisimilitude by even more corroborative detail.
Slightly-OT, one of the guys commenting on the “old cow” joke is still working the “His last name’s really SOETORO!” angle. Have any of them explained why they think Soetoro is any blacker or more Muslim than Obama? Even if he did change his name, it’s not like he changed it to Anderson or Smith to hide his ethnicity, or whatever they’re claiming.
once gave a lecture to other doctors in which he said non-believers should be beheaded and have boiling oil poured down their throats.
Wouldn’t you love to see the abstract for this lecture? “In this work we show that 3-4-cyclokinase can reduce symptoms of suicidal ideation in some patient populations. Thus, all infidels must be beheaded. ALSO”
John Boehner was touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven car. Suddenly, a huge orange lizard jumps out into the road, they hit it full on, and the car comes to a stop. Boehner, in his usual charming manner, says to the chauffeur: ‘You get out and check – you were driving.’
The chauffeur gets out, checks, and reports that the animal is dead but it was old.
‘You were driving; go and tell the farmer,’ says Boehner.
Two hours later, the chauffeur returns wearing a kaffia, hair ruffled with a big grin on his face.
‘My God, what happened to you?’ asks Boehner.
The chauffeur replies: ‘When I got there, the farmer gave me an ACORN tattoo, the wife performed a Wiccan ritual and the son made love to me. Then we had forced gay abortions ’
‘What on earth did you say?’ asks Boehner. ‘I just knocked on the door and when it was answered, I said to them: ‘I’m John Boehner’s chauffeur, and I’ve just killed the old orange lizard.’
The Torygraph, though it is becoming more and more Murdoch-like, isn’t actually a Murdoch paper. It’s owned by two other tax-dodging lunatics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_and_Frederick_Barclay.
ALWAYS. Trust. The. Shorter.™
Nothing like a fat old man telling jokes about an old cow.
Sarah Palin was touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven car. Suddenly, a leathery cougar jumps out into the road, they swerve at the last moment, just barely missing it – but the cougar is apparently completely bonkers as it stays right there on the road, staring the limo down. Palin, in her usual charming manner, asks to the chauffeur: ‘Are thems good eatin’?’ as she rolls down the window, rifle in hand.

Why did she get out of the car to get in front of it anyway?
Although Surber’s joke is older than dirt, it ain’t conservative enough. That joke is GETOFFAMAHLAWN In Name Only. Let’s run it through the Conserv-arama-ding-dong-dilly-POOP-amajig™:
Nancy Pelosi was touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven gold-plated, powered by fetus-burning engine car. Suddenly, a cow jumps out into the road, they hit it full on, and the car comes to a stop. Nancy, in her usual charming manner, says to the chauffeur:
‘You get out and check – you were driving.’‘You think that was bad, wait till you see what I’m going to do to the American taxpayer!!11!!one’ and then tore off the rubber mask revealing Osama bin Laden.At-there’s amost as funny as the one about the dead terrorist.

(Teh Clenis makes a cameo, if you can wait it out)
Nominative singular of Lat. for “mind” is mens. Mens fugit. If we’re working on analogy with tempus fugit. Etiam stercus. Atque virga. Etiam.
Help me peel back the onion of conservative idiocy here. I get that the author wants Michelle dead (though Pelosi doesn’t die in the joke), but is the subtext here that Obama supposedly wants Michelle offed?
Mens fugit
Mens fugit. Hell, Mens fug anything that mooooooooooves!
Ok, Ok, so Don Surber was touring the country side in a chauffeur driven car…
Oh hell, even I can’t make that one funny.
I’ve been to the American Gothic house – it’s in Eldon, Iowa, and these days, they have one of those cutouts of the famer and his wife standing out in front, so the few tourists who might drive by can pose with their heads in the cutouts. And by the time you get down to city hall, someone will have called the woman who works there to report on the state license plates of the cars that were parked in front of the house. It’s real Mayberry RFD, all the way.
Is beaverboard when they strap you down on your back and try to drown you by putting wet stuff on your face?
So, wait, I’m confused…
Publishing a picture of Sarah Palin that she voluntarily had taken six months ago on the cover of Newsweek is ZOMG SESCKSIST!!111!!!11, but jokes about Nancy Pelosi being murdered that refer to her as an “old cow” are a-okay?
Time to go back to Remedial Feminism 101, kiddos.
The farm people must have been “ree’l ‘muricans”.
Think about it: They are told two clear and simple facts, which they immediately twist according to their wierd political views. They they proceed to booze, gluttony and sex with a complete stranger.
I wonder if they paid the chauffor too…

Welcome to Real Amurica!
I get the joke!! They’re identifying themselves with people who peddle their daughter for sex!
From now on, this should be our stock response to trolling.
Surber actually prefers horses to cows.
But he’s also a very lazy fucker. He just stands behind the horse, sticks his dick in, grabs the reins, and keeps saying, “Giddyup. Whoa. Back. Giddyup. Whoa. Back.Giddyup. Whoa. Back…”

Look, even a cattle auctioneer can’t speak fast enough for the horse to stay on that tiny dick…

I am eagerly awaiting the next re-telling of this story, once it has been given more artistic verisimilitude by even more corroborative detail.
I think we have our new “people shredders”/”Jews in Iran” story. Get ready to hear this over and over, folks. They want it to be true, so they’ll act like it is.
Gross. Can we talk about drowning in beavers some more?

OK, here’s my prediction: Pam Atlass, a week and a half from now (after she’s finished her cigarette from the mudwrestling with Schlussel)

You don’t understand. Wingnuts don’t think there’s anything wrong with sexism. In fact, they like it. They only scream ZOMG SESCKSIST!!111!!!11 to shove something in the face of those DFH lie-bruls to make them cry.
Now, the DFH lie-bruls do a similar thing when they point out the hypocrisy of a gay-hating Republican fundie minister being found dead in two greasy wetsuits with a dildo up his ass. The difference being that the fundie dildo lover doesn’t pose for magazine covers in flagrante delicto.

Smut:
The story originally aired on NPR, by Daniel Zwerdling, based on first person accounts. It happened on “grand rounds”, where the doctor giving the lecture has the latitude to discuss (nearly) anything.
linky to NPR transcript
So while the Telegraph may be the Wahshington Times of London, this particular story is grounded in reality.
OK, according to the link, Hasan meant that this (begeading, oil pouring etc.) is what happens to unbelievers in Hell, not what should be done to them on Earth.
Still sick and twisted (and we weren’t exactly in doubt that Hasan is a sick, twisted fuck), but in that context it’s not too far removed from the crap believers in that other popular desert religion subscribe to. But then it doesn’t have that jihady terroristy yumminess the pundit class are longing for if you look at it that way.
begeading = beheading. Scuse mah fingahs.

Yeah. As a mostly normal, rational, non-bedwetting adult human being, I am more inclined to question this guy’s colleagues and the military for not being more pro-active in weeding him out and getting him serious psychiatric treatment.
I work in the medical field and know how insular and self-protective physicians can be, and I also know that the military is about 100 times worse. I think we should be thinking those problems, not ZOMG JIHAD. But that would require thought and self-reflection, and we all know that wingnuts can’t stand that shit.
Precisely. Torture is OK because God does it, ya know.

I think of Hasan more as a Hannibal Lecter than an Osama bin Laden. If we’re going to be all outraged, let’s be outraged about an obviously sick and dangerous man being allowed to practice psychiatry and take on the responsibility of caring for troubled minds. What did his colleagues do, shrug their shoulders?
Zwerdling of NPR has done some really good reporting on this. Those of you who are really interested in the story should search for “Zwerdling Hasan” on the NPR site.
This morning NPR reported that they were in posession of a fitness report on Hasan from when he was a Captain that painted him as a bad psychiatrist and a bad officer. The report basically concluded that he was likely to do harm to his patients. How he continued to work with patients is a mystery and needs to be investigated. There were plenty of dots to connect; less dots than paint-by-numbers in fact.
But yeah, nevermind all that, ZOMG terrorist!

Exactly. From what it sounds like, this guy would have washed out in any halfway decent medical school because of his mental instability.
“OMG! I have two sources that say that Abdul Nidal Hasan made a suicide video just before he attacked the barracks at Fort Hood AND THE TAPE WAS MADE AT WALTER REED!”
I heard that the script was written by ACORN and that Obama was the cameraman.
Leave it to conservatives to turn a perfectly good farmer’s daughter joke into a political hit job.
To conservatives lurking here:
Leave the dirty jokes alone! If you must re-formulate the classics to fit your political leanings, go with racial stereotypes; you know, the things with which you are most familiar. You do want to end political correctness, don’t you?
There was something on NPR last night, that whenever Hasan was supervised he did just well enough to prove he was capable of improvement. Sounds like he knew how to play the system to not be fired.

I’ve poked around a little, and it looks like it’s a fucking bureaucratic nightmare to get rid of a military doctor (much, much more difficult than getting rid of a civilian doctor). Why they couldn’t have at least made him to submit to psychiatric treatment is beyond me. This seems like more of a fuck-up in military culture than in medical culture.
“he did just well enough to prove he was capable of improvement.”
Well you have to admire his Wally-like ability to work just hard enough to prevent getting canned. Too bad he’s a criminally insane religious nutjob.

The really sad thing about putting Don in American Gothic? He’s never made love to a woman nearly that hot.
He’s never made love to a woman nearly that hot.
Listen, he could make her bark like a dog!
Oh. Wait…
The report basically concluded that he was likely to do harm to his patients.
One important qualification: they meant mental harm. They didn’t think he’d do physical harm, and he’d been shunted into a role in which he didn’t interact with patients.
The military certainly didn’t address the problem but given how short staffed they are for head shrinkers, even if Hasan could pick up some of the administrative load, that might have freed up those better suited for caring for patients.
Not a great decision by a long shot, but there’s a saying in the Army: “Fuck up, move up.”
From the old jokes recycling bin:
One day George W was having a beer with Barack Obama (I know, I know, it’s a joke–go with it) and George confided that he was having trouble “satisfying” Laura. The stress of office had taken its toll on his performance, and he was worried.
Obama said “Here’s what I do: every night, before I go to bed, I take my pecker out and whack it up against the bedpost several times, as hard as I can. This toughens things up, and believe me, I’ve never had any complaints!
So that night, when George was sure that his wife was safely asleep, he crawled down to the foot of the bed, pulled out his little pud and, feeling slightly foolish, began slapping it against the bedpost.
The noise woke Laura, and she turned over sleepily, and said, “Barack? Is that you?”

I’m sure this question’s been asked before, but teh Gazoogle tells me 0 hits with teh quotation marks in.

Also, apologies for teh’ superrfl’ous apos’tophe’.
The military certainly didn’t address the problem but given how short staffed they are for head shrinkers…
I recall hearing, the first day Zwerdling was on the story, him going into some detail about how difficult it is to get rid of a physician. I think he went so far as to say his sources (dr.s who worked in the same unit) doubted they would be able to to get rid of him.
Hey! Be nice! The artist’s sister was the model for that farmstress!
But it wasn’t, D-KW. Using the apostrophe to represent the elision of ‘has” isn’t standard usage but without the apostrophe your construction would be even worse.

Another old joke:
One morning in the winter of 2001, W wakes up in the White House after a big snowstorm. He sees “W Sucks” written in yellow in the snow.
He calls the Secret Service, who spring into action.
A few hours later:
“Well, sir, We’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is, we’ve done a DNA analysis and can conclusively state the urine is from President Bill Clinton.”
“Oh my god….well, what could possibly be the bad news then?”
“The handwriting is the First Lady’s”
OMFG.

There isn’t enough popcorn in the world to supply the quantities needed for the Palin/Obama and Beck/Biden debates…

Personally, I would love to see Obama channel his inner “Rock”

Palin: Why yes, Mr. Pr–
Obama: It doesn’t matter what you can see, you jabroni! I am Barack, and I am the People’s President!
There isn’t enough popcorn in the world to supply the quantities needed for the Palin/Obama and Beck/Biden debates…
While I am PAH-RAYING for this to happen, I doubt the few grownups left in the Republican Party would let this happen. BUT if they don’t, it’s possible that Beck and Palin could run as third-party candidates and it would be a replay of the insane Perot clusterfuck of the 90s, except with more insanity and clusterfuckery.

A) Uighurs ARE Muslims
B) China just smacked Obama about for allowing them leave to be anti-China.

The Chinese are using (as the Russians have in Chenchnya) the label “terrorist” to attack the Uighurs… yet another adorable legacy of Dear Leader Comrade Bush, and one you pretty much could see coming a mile off after 9/11.

I’m figuring (we ARE talking about the Common Americanus Wingnuttius) this person heard a comment somewhere about Uighurs=terrorist Muslims, and, minus any context (see above) just jumped to conclusions.
It’s interesting to watch it unfold. Notice that Turkey has never gotten away with defining the Kurds as terrorists. Probably a combination of the relative political power Kurdistan has built up with oil money plus everyone involved in that name-calling is Muslim.

So Biden’s chauffeur runs someone over & they’ve got bupkis – because they’re busy recycling a farmer-joke that’s older than I am about Pelosi?!?
No, no, honey, the rabid dog is right over HERE – congratulations, you just shot the neighbour’s cat.
By far the worst thing Pelosi ever did – refusing to impeach Teh Gang That Couldn’t Lie Straight – is about the only thing they ever applauded her for. It’s uncanny: whenever they get gung-ho about something, you know you’re looking at major-league fail.
From the way these folks loathe her, you’d think she shot her friend in the face & then made them apologize, started a pointless war under false pretenses, initiated a government torture program, had her own personal death-squad, already had outstanding arrest-warrants &/or indictments against her in numerous jurisdictions around the world & was under suspicion of a multitude of serious crimes in the US or something!
Why they couldn’t have at least made him to submit to psychiatric treatment is beyond me. This seems like more of a fuck-up in military culture than in medical culture.

I was sent to one of those crazy evangelical grade schools in the Bible Belt that teach 6-day creation in science class and the theocratic junta in civics. One day we saw pictures of children who were raised in monastaries in southeast Asia. The poor dears needed immediate missionary help because they were forced to memorize thousands of Buddhist scriptures and wear funny robes.

Sinhalese Buddhists can be pretty nasty.
Burmese too
Then too, you got your Radical Faerie Buddhists.and Dharma-Dykes to think about.
I resent the implication that my fellow hotdog vendors are stupid. A tofu dog for you, N__B!
Radical Buddhist walks up to a hotdog vendor and says, “Make me one with everything”.
Hotdog vendor says “WTF? You’re a vegetarian.”
Radical Buddhist says….
I got nothing.
When you think about it, Buddhism being full of jerkwads makes total sense. Shorter Buddhism:
A tofu dog for you, N__B!
I stopped eating boiled street-meat circa 1990, after my third round of food poisoning.
Enlightenment? FYIGM.
ahem
I stopped eating boiled street-meat …
I see no mention of your stance vis-a-vis raw street meat. Clarification is needed.
Siddhartha was touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven car…
raw street meat
Website, newsletter, subscription.
Radical Buddhists are engaged in a terror campaign of random assassinations of Buddhas on the road.
Pelosi is 69?!!!!! I always thought she was an attractive woman but now I’m really impressed. And I’m not being snarky.

You clarify butter, not meat. Sheesh.
On the other hand, I can see someone – not me – making a fortune in NYC with a string umbrella-ed stands servcie yak tartare and fresh goats’ milk yogurt.
Serving, too, for those who speak actual english.
Siddhartha was touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven car…
Large or small vehicle?
Also, and OT, Xenophon v. Xenu! Awesome!
Radical hotdog vendors cut their own throats.
ahem
Well, in my defense – from your link:
The first being the FYIGM version.
Pelosi would never expect someone to take personal responsibility for his actions.
Personal responsibility? Jaysus, they pay for boilerplate? I can write boilerplate!
“Pelosi would have insisted on onerous regulations and inspections of the farmer’s livestock.”
See? Where’s mah money?
(Back up to read the comments and see how many other people made the same joke.)

As soon as I get back from touring 4th Avenue and the Port Authority bus terminal, I’ll respond.

I think someone found the Eightfold Path and took it a little too literally:
1. Right View
2. Right Intention
3. Right Speech
4. Right Action
5. Right Livelihood
6. Right Effort
7. Right Mindfulness
8. Right Concentration
OT, Xenophon v. Xenu! Awesome!
Thread degenerates rapidly into an exchange of Australian and New Zealand cultural stereotypes. My sheep and I are both offended.
From the original Xenophon’s Oeconomicus:

And yet, somehow yak vendors seem so foreign to you people…

MY GOD! THEY ATE HOLES IN THAT HOUSE!
“The martin’s digestive process and metabolic rate are extremely rapid, and it must consume its own weight in insects each day. The average weight for a purple martin is about four ounces, which is equal to about 14,000 mosquitoes or that equivalent…”
!!!!
Zombie Martins could be a problem.
At 5 mg per mosq, x 14,000, that’s….carry the one…70 g, or TWO AND A HALF OUNCES!
MY GOD! THEY ATE HOLES IN THAT HOUSE!
That’s no house, it’s a launcher.
Zombie Martins could be a problem.
We are not without recourse.
TWO AND A HALF OUNCES!
Zombie hor’s douvres. On crackers.
Unleash the Zombie Kittens!
This is what entropy means to me.

Radical Buddhist walks up to a hotdog vendor and says, “Make me one with everything”.
He gives the vendor a twenty, waits a minute, then says, “Where’s my change?” The vendor smiles and replies, “True change comes from within.”
Heh. Here‘s a “rimshot” for the Batman.
Is beaverboard when they strap you down on your back and try to drown you by putting wet stuff on your face?
You may be thinking of the medium-density fibreboard.
You do not want to know about the bisonboard.

Do we have to do the thousand-post thing again? I’m still tired from the last one.

Yeah but this way you really feel the burn–more aerobic too.

C’mon pipples, we got a loooong way to go.
Little help?
Radical Buddhist monk walks up to a hotdog vendor. Eats him.
You do not want to know about the bisonboard.
And you really don’t want to know about the rustytubaboard.
So who’s playing Borderlands?
Not bad but I’m afraid to play online because it’s easily hack3d and because I’m old none of my friends play video games. So can’t play a private game and won’t play with strangers.
We’re playing Keep on the Borderlands this Saturday.

Buddhist on wiener-man action in street = HOT!
Radical hotdog vendor walks up to a Buddhist Monk and asks, “What is the true nature of a kosher frankfurter?”
“Moo,” says the monk.
“And you really don’t want to know about the rustytubaboard.”
The ErnestTubboard will have you walking the floor.
The fact is, the word is “Buddhest”.
As long as we’re stuck here on another perma-thread, let’s play a little game I like to call name the next Palin baby! I’ll go first:
Sprocket
Twink
Flunk
Grift
Vengeance
“(oil on beaverboard) (no … seriously … on beaverboard.)”
Yes, and who put the oil on the beaverboard?….none other than Grant WOOD.
I predict that Twink Palin takes after his brother-in-law.
“Twee”
“Cordite”
“Quit”
name the next Palin baby
After her grandmother?
Mimimimi
Not bad but I’m afraid to play online because it’s easily hack3d and because I’m old none of my friends play video games. So can’t play a private game and won’t play with strangers.
I just caught up with Bioshock last month. Give me a year or so and I’m up for some internet Borderlandy goodness.
How about “Track”?
Nah, forget it…too bizarre.
President
The fact is, real Americans like me know that Libs are afraid of Sarah Palin. She will be our next president, and I hope Michele Bachman or Glenn Beck are with her to restore the USA to its consitution and small government and lower taxes and freedom. Liberals, just bite me. We are taking our country back in 3,2,1….

Isn’t “assless chaps” redundant?
Radical Buddhist walks into a gay bar and orders a hotdog.
Your ball.
Isn’t “assless chaps” redundant?
Maybe in your circles. All the chaps I’ve dated had asses (or I wouldn’t have dated them!)
Isn’t “assless chaps” redundant?
True. And they may lead to chapped asses.
Radical Buddhist walks into a gay bar and orders a hotdog.
Your ball.
I’m confused. Does he order a weiner or a ball?
“True change comes from within.”
One-handed golf clap.
Buddhist always buy from Zen Cohen’s Kosher Dogs.
I tried to follow the Eightfold Path, but my BoddhiSATvas were too low.
[Goes back to trying to create a “Garden of Eightfold Paths” joke]
I tried painting with beaver on oilpaper, but the medium was too recalcitant.

I wouldn’t bother; Borges already did it.
If I click on the link to Surber’s site will Dueling Banjos start playing? I’ll feel cheated if it doesn’t.

Your media must be prepped using a woodchipper, or industrial food processor.
Would beaver frescoes be recalcimine?
Have the proprietors abandoned us again?
beaver frescoes
O tempera! O mores!
Or perhaps “O Castors” or “O Castorimorpha” or summat? Poop.
Bisonboarding in progress.
Back to the serious part of the thread: just caught C-Span, where some former Bush “terrorism expert” is testifying before the Senate about what Fort Hood truly means, while Joe Lieberman nods sagely. Nauseating.
Wise men give opinions
And we’re wise to listen
Pick the crumbs of our republic,
Something senseless happens
They assign it meaning
Shake it at us like glowstick,
Shiny objects blind your eyes!
The next Palin baby is going to be named Zamboni. Ole Sarah even said so. She wants him to grow up to be a smooth operator, and not in a rink-y-dink sense, either. (Veiled hockey cup reference!)
Palin baby?
Boys:
Prick
Trick
Stick
Dragg
Splatt
Hock
Puck
Girls:
Strumpet
Valvoline
Blister
Oleo
Isn’t “assless chaps” redundant?
For that matter, aren’t dildoes always humorous?
Alicia Morgan said,

Ah, so it’s like the NATO naming conventions for Eastern-bloc hardware and crypto systems (two syllables = jets, one syllable = propellor craft).

If you tip her a twenty, she becomes easy.
Real easy.
George W. Bush was traveling through Vermont and stopped to talk to a local farmer.
“How large of an acreage do you cultivate?” Bush asked.
“Oh, it’s pretty big,” the Vermonter replied. “My farm extends for about a hundred yards in that direction and for nearly a hundred-twenty yards in that. And how large an acreage do you handle?”
Bush smiled.
“Back home,” he said, “I have a ranch with my house located at one end. I can get into my truck at the house in the morning, turn the ignition key, step on the gas, and by the end of the day I still won’t have reached the other end.”
The Vermont farmer nodded sympathetically. “Yeah, that’s tough. I once had a truck like that, too.”
Bush replies “Really? I had an entire administration like that.”

O tempera! O mores!
When your beaver hits tempra in a fresco by Smut Clyde,
That’s “O mores!”
I left this comment at the site, and I hope that Surber prints it!
I wrote:
And people say conservatives don’t have a good sense of humor! This is brilliant and the commentary is brilliant!
I hope this does go viral and Don Surber get the credit for this!
Fox News needs to bring back “The 1/2 Hour News Hour” !!!!
With pure gold like this, everyone will see just exactly how funny and smart and intelligent and witty conservatives can be, IF, and I hope Don Surber and the commenters here get involved!!!, IF conservatives put all their brain power to the task of just enjoying life and being funny.
Down with PC! Up with conservative wits!!!
Conservatives can do it all!!!!
