… Stupid job…
*grabs mop*
I know right?! Thats so freakin cute!!!!!
OMG! Those tactical cuteness grenades are banned under the Geneva convention.Yet here is the proof, alongside that other video of another US soldier throwing a live cuteness grenade in iraq…
NO!! NO!! Don’t pull that!! That’s not the pin!!!
But he feels better when you pull that…
WIN?
I wish I was that puppy!
You want rough Marine hands on your thingumy? Oooookay….<_<
Good god, I hope that guy isn’t David Motari, and that they’re not near any cliffs…
WTF?
I wonder why he has a puppy in his pocket…
?
I see a lot of pictures of the military with some sort of cute pet. Maybe it’s the government trying to tell us that war is OK…
Ohwait! Obama’s president now.
So the logic is that that picture was taken in the last 48?
Where do you see logic in what they said?
Maybe if you squint really, really hard…nah…well, maybe if you wish with all your heart…
Ah, screw it. I can’t find it.
Kuro, I just used a microscope and can’t find it either…but now my retinas hurt…
*applies cold compresses* Better?
aahhhhh…danke…
comprehension fail by TC… ok… let’s try a good old bit of Sesame Street exposition for folk who find the plot too complex…
Reasonable assertion… unpopular war… soldiers getting the whole unjustified ‘baby killer’ crap when they simply follow orders to attack some random six figure ref by ‘intelligence’… make em look more human. Good propaganda for the war too…
Followed by
Implication, it’s the hand of Nyarlathotep in this piece of propaganda…
My question
Since The Dark One has only been president for a shade over 48 hours at the time of writing, one can only assume that, if it’s the Obama War Propaganda Machine at work, it was staged in the last 48, otherwise it’s the last lot’s propaganda…
Okay, there’s logic there…however, I think Airigh was going for GRAAR!!!1! OBAMA DESTROY WORLD!!1!1eleventy-one. Just like one of my “peers” who’s been spouting the same since the election.
OK… that’s possible…
*Looks down the hallway*
I think all of your peers work in my office! Everyone here is spouting that same nonsense. Mulim, N*** Socialist RAWR!!11elventy-one.
Obvious moron is obvious.
Any one think it’s likely that someone will try to pull an Oswald before June…
I hope not…I pray it doesn’t happen…but I could see it…too many rednecks out there…I was thinking july or August when it gets soooo hot and humid that people are easily agitated…
Being a redneck doesn’t mean you don’t support our current president. I know quite a few people that are labled as rednecks that support him. Granted the larger number of rednecks sort of have the “Kill that n*****!” attitude, which is sad, but that’s how people are.
Sorry…I should’ve been more specific…Racist Rednecks
See, now that makes sense.
Hopefully, the prospect of a Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi
administration would keep some of the would-be
assassins at home with their beer.
You may have hit the ‘why did Obama choose Biden to begin with’ nail on the head, dear.
More ‘why did Obama choose Biden and not Clinton?’
He did that because he wanted to make it through the oath of office. Do you honestly think that Mrs. Clinton would stand for being second banana?
What she said.
What she said.
I knew the answer to the question, but yes, it’s what Frou said.
Madam C would have fitted better inthe Court of the Medicis, one of the Tudor reigns, the Court of Louis XIV, or the Nixon Administration. Back then political assassination was simply politics in its purest form.
Didn’t choose Clinton because he would then know his assassin… Then again, Biden might make a play for the big seat as well but more people would be in his way than would be in Clinton’s way.
some? more like all…
I’m assuming the ones smart enough would think
the matter through, but I’ve been disappointed more
often than not.
*cough* LBJ *cough*
…smart enough *to carry out an assassination…
You mean you don’t carry a puppy in your pocket all the time?!
Is that a puppy in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
True story:
When a good friend of mine was about 8 years old, his Dad came home on Christmas Eve.
Dad: Oh, is it Christmas Eve?
Mom: I can’t BELIEVE you forgot!
Dad: I’m sorry; I’ve just been so busy…
[ruff ruff]
Kids: Daddy, what’s in your pocket?
Dad: What?
[ruff ruff]
Kids: Daddy, there’s a PUPPY in your coat pocket!!
Dad: Oh, can’t be… wait… [reaches into pocket, where puppy has been hiding] You’re right, there is! How about that?
Puppy: ruff ruff!
Kids: YAY!!
either he had a HUGE coat, or that was a little puppy. i’m gonna go with little puppy which either means it was some little yappy dog or it was far too young to be separated from it’s mother…
If I remember right, it was a dachshund, which is a smallish breed to begin with. I don’t know what kind of coat he was wearing, but I picture it as one of those 50s dad Ward Cleaver type overcoats, which did have pretty big pockets.
ah ok, yeah they’re TINY when they’re about 8 weeks. pocket-sized. i was picturing like golden retriever/lab sort of puppy and those are definitely not pocket sized once they’re old enough to be away from mom around 8 weeks.
War zones create a lot of homeless animals. The troops are far from their own, can’t be sure which humans it’s safe to befriend, but can be pretty sure a puppy is a noncombatant. If it helps keep them sane I’m all for it.
I agree. More pets for our soldiers! Um, not that we should make more pets homeless.
Unfortunately, that’s often the same thing.
Not everyone can spend day in day out being shot at, killing people, seeing people they care about being killed without the time mourn, and doing things that some faceless, soulless spook in some Whitehall or Washington Office would vomit at the thought of doing himself, can just come home and fall into mowing the lawn, playing with the kids and doing the ‘ordinary’ things that makes up the ‘ordinary’ life… but hey, this is a comedy site so
BOOBIES!
missed a bit in my tirade…
D’oh… complete misread… I read that as ‘more pets for the homeless, umm make that more pets for the homeless…’
A Fester misread moment…
Did you miss a dose of your medication?
Go die in a cold place you troll…
You seem ovely sanguine about the content of my misread to marry up with your continuous and nauseous wrapping yourself in the flag. Typical self centred troll boy… only a patriot when it suits…
I wish I could be as eloquent as you, Unc…but I just can’t. So AF…just PHUCK OFF ALREADY!
Bite me you liberal Koolaid drinking idiot. I’ve heard better insults from preschoolers. But then, you are an Obama supporter so your intellect, such as it may be called, is suspect at best. How many years have you been held back in school ?
If your comment is a sign of your “Intellectual Superiority”, then I guess I’m glad I’m an idiot…
The man is a retarded drinker of cuspidors…
I’ve seen 50cal head shot victims with more brain… and hookers trying to score their next fix with more moral fibre…
they’re giving them away now? i got gipped!
Go on… invoke more dead comrades, you pretender.
You’re just sickening…
Ah dont cha love the ready wingnut respose, call names and get off topic. Saves a lot of headaches from actually having to think.
A departure from the usual miscreant moments
It’s ok. I’ve misread things before as well.
But I think you’re right about them going hand in hand even though you were talking about something else. In an ideal world there would be no war, and no homeless pets.
Also, while I’m dreaming, I’d like a pony.
“some faceless, soulless spook in some Whitehall or Washington Office would vomit at the thought of doing himself”
`
That’s what poor people are for; to do the dirty work and/or get killed.
That’s a very good point. I agree completely.
That makes sense. And puppies are perhaps the purest and most loving creatures in the world. They can’t dislike anyone unless that person has done something to hurt them in the past. So I guess they’d be the best choice.
Even if that person hurt them in the past, the puppies are usually full of forgiveness, if you show them you’re sorry.
*Sigh*
I love puppies.
I do too. They taste wonderful with the right dressing.
You have to make sure you’ve cleaned out all the liver though. It’s quite toxic to humans.
*eyetwitch* Wow, learned something new today…
You think that’s bad? I have a cat recipe from the 1520s. Apparently kitteh brainz gives yu teh krazy if yu noms dem. I threaten my cats with this recipe when they misbehave.
Based on dietary habits, I’d not say cat offal was generally safe either., and I think that cat liver has the same Vit D toxicity that Dog does…
Suddenly, I understand why the ICHC people talk like that.
Dammit! Now my eye is twitching!! *Twitch*
Could be…
The mysteries of the universe are revealed!
Oh noes! Dah soylent greenz is kittehz!
You scare me when you speak like that…
I know.
You know, I finally got round to looking for “Soylent Green” on wikipedia…. Honestly, I couldn’t really see the problem. I mean, it’s not like the dead people were using their bodies at the time…
“can be pretty sure a puppy is a noncombatant.”
`
Now who’s being naive? That puppy was brought along to counteract the flower smelling kitty in the other lol.
It’s not a puppy. He’s just happy to see you.
Brings new meaning to “Dogs of War”, eh?
This is much better than the banana bomb from “Worms”

Make cuteness, not war
Does he NEED the Oakleys to make him look more badass? I think they could have gone with off-brand.
There is a lot of badassness emanating from him isn’t there. The oakleys only make it better.
and the badassness makes the cuteness better, which makes the LOL better. Excellent work, RC.
I know good balance!
You must not have a clue in how the military appropriations works! They will only buy from the lowest bidder. always! and to top it all off you probably dont understand the fact they are made in the USA! If they werent and were made by some other halfwit country you would probably complain about that. I will assume you have never served and you dont know what its like. For that, stand up and join. by the looks of his uniform he is a Marine. If you can muster the backbone give it a try. Marines are always looking for a few good men. Are you one of them???
Heh, hope you’re joking because I was.
If either R. Lee Ermey or Poe’s law, I think. I’d not worry…
Jeez Louise, overcompensating much? Calm down.
He’ll have you drop and give him 20
Is that a metaphor? Bleh.
Gawd damn.
They buy their own civilian stuff like sunglasses, Playstations, and puppy crates.
You meant the military doesn’t just issue you the playstation?
MY RECRUITER LIED TO ME!
semper fido!
HEE! Best comment, so far!
The other day I mentioned ‘recruiting officer cant’ – this is the sort of bull I was referring to…
Yes- you love us veterans sooo much…
And still, no proof that you’re anything but a 900lb gorilla in a purple thong wiping snot off your nose as you lean over your computer. You know, if you close your mouth when you breathe you won’t make those nasty wheezing sounds….
do you want him to show us his myspace page as proof?
-
you realize she’s been around recently…? it makes my head hurt.
I love how she’s been acting like nothing ever happened, even though she’s been basically a joke since then.
i know. she comments like she’s a regular and seems to just gloss over the comments where we completely lampoon her. must be fun living in her world… i can only assume she gets the good meds.
Maybe that’s why she thinks everyone loves her at work.
aaaaaah, that would explain so much!
Sociopathy rears its ugly head!!!
but… but… her heads not ugly. it’s soooo hot, everyone loves her and wants her. it’s also so hot she had to take 800 pictures of it (by herslef because apparently all those people who love her couldn’t take them) and post them on her myspace.
/snark
They don’t make meds that good… you have to be a sociopath.
but the sociopaths GET the good meds!
Never touched Ted Bundy…
Looking at his callous disregard for actual veterans plights, I’d say we’re dealing with someone who just makes stuff up as he needs it…
That’s a stout accusation, Unc. Surely no one would ever
make up things on PK…!
Oh, and I almost forgot to tell you, I one another

congrats! did you at least get a pretty tiara? and make sure to (photoshop pictures of it so you can) post them on your myspace… make them look like this [LINK].
Remember, though, you can’t have somebody else take the pictures. You have to hold the camera at arm’s length.
I did get a cool picture when I tried that, though. It looked like my head was exploding. The mirror without turning the flash off, I mean, of course.
diss – if you angle it downward enough with your face lifted up, all that will show is your face and your cleavage. thus disguising the rest of your body. had a sorority sister who was about 5’5″ 200+lbs and she did that all the time beacuse she had a pretty face and big boobs. had lots of first dates, never a second one…. false advertising and all.
kuro – i’ve seen some really nifty artsy photos like the one you’re describing, but for the most part it’s just dumb fcuks who don’t turn off the flash then keep the photo anyway.
@Rho
I perfected my mk I Iron Man suit today…
I’ll see you in the park for sangria…
@all of my adoring fans: Thank you for your
continued appreciation of my awesomeness.
I just wish everyone else on the interwebz

*snerk* rho, I think I may love you…
@rho…. your hubby, he’s a looker that one.
@ubr: thanks. i try. actually, i just realized that i could give you a link to said sisters myspace…. you can see for yourself! note, this is also the hootch who lived at my house for months rent free then threatened to call the cops on my family for holding her hostage. she’s definitely a few fries short of a happy meal.
wow.
she’s short a few fries because she ate them. and the deep fryer. and the guy cooking the fries.
she reminds me of louie anderson
[Quote: Kuromisa]*snerk* rho, I think I may love you…[/quote]
I would pay to see that.
louie anderson… hmm i’d never seen that connection before. now it’ll be all i can think of! lol! and yes, she ate lots of fries. there was a time when she ate mcd’s 3 times a day. just thinking of that makes my arteries hurt. not to mention my wallet.
Guess I was dropping bombs on the wrong country all those years- shoulda been bombing Berkley and the rest of you liberal parasites…
^^^Sorry, gang. That AF was mine.
I shouldn’t have had that chilidog last night.
Based on the US MIL friendly fire incidents, I’d say you’d miss America if you were asked to bomb it, but then, the only bombing you ever did was in HALO, but please, feel free to tell us of your bombing escapades, you moron…
“congrats! did you at least get a pretty tiara?”

There are tiaras?
Why was I not informed of this?
*pouts cutely*
ACK! I *won the popularity contest. (You may be
able to determine my place in the spelling bee.)
nuclear physicist who can’t spell… i fear for my country.
As long as she doesn’t have a blind spot for numbers…
good call, unc. i’m fearing less already.
@TOS: It’s okay. Bill Gates proofreads all of
my stuff for me.
@Unc: My aunt, my dad and three of my
cousins are blind, so thanks for being so
sensitive…
@rho… ok you’re scaring me again now. remember he doesn’t catch wear, were, where, your, you’re, err, air, their, they’re, there…. or any of those other fun things that could be so easily effed up. and do you really have blind family members or are you acting like a certain someone? i’ve got a friend who is blind who works at NASA… she’s cool as hell.
@TOS: You’re just being mean to me because
you’re jealous. Make up your mind!
Oh, and as for your crack about “acting,” I
know several actors, and see them on TV
every night, so thanks for being mature.
i am jealous. i mean you’ve got that A&F model of a hubby. a sweet@ss boat. 6 tiaras from your popularity contests and you’re a nuclear physicist.
and to top it all off, you know celebrities… i am *so* jealous. why, you’re the perfect woman!
Well, I did have a zit once…
Only the ones with over inflated opinions of themselves.
Exhibit 1 for the prosecution: Anti-Fester. Evidence, played the ‘I’m Ex-mil card’ like it gave him a free pass to every cat-house and glory hole in Alabama…
There are numerous veterans who really feel no need to crow… all I can say is that if you’re ‘the best that you can be’ then the recruitment of quality personel has lapsed badly…
And yet you nastily smear all who are military here… still haven’t mentioned your service , have you? That’s because p*ssies like you are afraid and prefer to insult, spit on and torment those who have. Set fire to any VFW halls lately?
I prefer not to get into a pecker measuring contest with a man who is clearly unarmed… And you’re the one who’s disgracing everything any DECENT e vet Vet would brag about or stand for… you’re a ball less Muppet who wouldn’t know ‘service’ if it bit his obscenely fat arse… but please, feel free to pretend what you will to the Right Winfg groundlings you’re playing to, at least in your own head.
Listen, I don’t like Uncle Fester, and you’re making my dislike extremely hard to maintain by being such an ass even by comparison. So some combination of piss off and thank you
If it’s any consolation, I don’t like you either… but I’m not here to be ‘liked’ I’m here to try and remind people that most things are more than two sided…
“And yet you nastily smear all who are military here…”
Where?
Lighten up, Francis…
As in the Talking Mule?
“Stripes”…Sargeant Hulka…One of my alltime favorites, although now that you mention it, Unc…it does fit!!!
Actually, we don’t purchase from the low bidder, sorry. Plus, a lot of foreign companies are supplying our troops with their gear, because… well, I don’t know of a good reason.
Finally, you’re a bit prickly about the service angle. You are in the military right now, yourself?
Ooh. That gave me a plausible explanation. mr Devil”Dog” is in fact the puppy in the picture, and he’s just really, really bitter, sick of all the “ooh, you so kyooooot”-gunk he hears all day!
Have a half internet for that idea…
Woohoo! Half an Internet! I’m going to make a quiche out of it, I think.
they’re cheap… and even US companies are farming out component manufacture to slave labour in the Far East/SE Asia… not sure I can come up with any American corp that produces a 100% domestic engineered product. Maybe Leatherman, but I don’t know their rivet manufacturer…
It is ILLEGAL for ANY government contractor to supply ANY manufactured component made with materials purchased, manufactured, or assembled anywhere but in the USA. I work for a defense contractor and everything we supply has to be accompanied by pages and pages of Certificates of Compliance that prove material traceability.
Everything purchased by our government was made right here in the USA (unless the contractor is a slime-ball breaking the law). Our materials are inspected frequently, and thoroughly.
It may well be, but I doubt it’s what happens…
You’re kidding, right? We can’t even manufacture (whichever type) missiles without chips from Hong Kong. Stupid, but true.
Odd. We can’t even buy nuts and bolts that are made from chinese steel. It all has to be sourced here in the USA.
Maybe if the only existing manufacturer of a technical component is abroad it changes things.
I’m also thinking you’re working for a Halliburton
competitor…
I hate to contradict people without having the evidence to back me up, especially when they seem reasonable, intelligent, and informed on the topic. If you click on my name, I’ve got a story dating back to 2006 on the topic.
I still can’t defend my assertion that defense contracts are not necessarily awarded to the lowest bidder, except to note that the Bush administration made it a habit to award no-bid contracts, on what basis has never been explained. Notably, Halliburton was awarded most of the contracts in Iraq following our invasion. Not only were they not the lowest bidder, the contracts were cost plus!
It seems to be a world-wide standard that military contracts now and then go to the one whose bribes are most tasty. Not being an investigator of such criminiality, I can’t say whether that’d ever happen in the US military, but I find it plausible that they’re no better or worse than others. ;p
*just throwing my few pence in. Or ören, as it was.
Oh, I won’t argue that ‘some’ particularly juicy contracts aren’t awarded under the table to certain “favorite” companies in the interests of ulterior political motives. I’m sure there is plenty of monkey business going around, and I don’t doubt that companies like Oshkosh Truck and AM General have contract administrators in their pockets, but there are still some companies that do follow the rules.
Sorry PortlandMark, soldiers might not buy from the lowest bidder, but the DSCC does. All bids are posted on a public board and the contracts are always awarded to the lowest bidder (provided they have proven capable).
Obviously some guy in his garage isn’t going to win a contract for a nuclear submarine because the government knows he’s not capable of performing.
Not that I’m questioning you personally, Steve, but what about all the stories of $10,000 hammers and $7500 wrenches and the like?
usually the excess costs for what we deem as normal goods is caused by the amount of testing required for military regs and also the specialized nature of their use and construction…
.
military regs are interesting… the us navy has a regulation that all materials aboard ship must be able to withstand a .50 cal shell without exploding or causing shrapnel… imagine having to test fire extinguishers…
Kinda sounds like fun…are you hitting on me?
*blushes*
that depends… is it working?
sounds good sense… do the US Navy use as much aluminium in their ships as we do?
not sure how much aluminium the RN uses, but i know that the USN is slowly switching over to more and more composite materials… especially in the new Ford class carriers and smaller warship including the new DD(X)…
I will agree that some of the things we sell the gov’t do seem highly over priced. There are two main causes for this. The first is the ridiculous amount of overhead required to deal with the gov’t. It takes them weeks to accomplish anything, and it is all accompanied by a significant stack of paperwork.
The second is also caused by inefficiency, but order Quantity. Lets say they order a custom made hammer, but they only want ONE. We need to figure the cost of that tooling into the price of that single hammer. Also you can’t buy steel for one hammer, so that one hammer costs way more than it should. Then next week they order 5 hammers, and 4 more next month, and 5 more the month after that. Each time you break down a job on a machine you add overhead costs for setup/breakdown of fixtures etc. Had they simply ordered 200 hammers with the very first order, they could have been produced in a single run, the materials could have been ordered in bulk, and the product could be produced much more cost effectively, thus lowering the price.
To summarize: The government is inefficient, and disorganized. (unfortunately there isn’t anything a contractor can do about it, we just do our best to provide what they want while meeting the fair market value)
To summarize: The government is inefficient, and disorganized.
But of course, we knew that.
Sadly, yes.
Aww! Why didn’t it do the nifty quote thing? I must have messed up my tags.
What did you put in the tags?
What you needed to put in was <blockquote></blockquote>
Oakley lenses also offer the best optical clarity available. I own a pair and they are absolutely crystal clear. I don’t wear contacts/glasses, so having anything in my vision drives me crazy. Oakleys are the only sunglasses I will wear.
If your life, and the lives of your squad, depended on you seeing clearly, being able to identify a target even looking into direct sun glare…wouldn’t you spend a few extra bucks for Oakley glasses? I would.
The have one of the best modern ‘day vision’ lenses, I’d agree. It’s the fact they cut out the blue part of the spectrum, which can confuse depth and speed perception.
I liked the old mid-brown Ray-Bans in the 80s (back when Bausch & Lomb made all their stuff on the US) The lens could stop quite fast moving objects, say gravel kicked up by small arms fire, and only chip, not shatter.
Prior to that, my dad had an old pair of German fighter goggles with the Zeiss yellow lens… they were great, but I’d not have cared to have checked the shatterproofing…
Also the focal point is more precise than on most sunglasses. It prevents distortion of the image (which is why they don’t annoy the hell out of me)
Good opitical coating too…
Eye agree!
I don’t see the point of these.
Are you blind?
Rho! Don’t be mean…. oh wait, its ok, your relatives are blind, right?
LOL! Somebody’s done her homework…
i didn’t know there actually was a difference besides the name brand and price. Good to know.

Nope.

With the exclamation point, yet.
Ever hear of Halliburton? [link]
“You must not have a clue in how the military appropriations works! They will only buy from the lowest bidder. always!”

Well, perhaps not always:
he FBI recently sought documents from various government offices. The requests focused on how and why Halliburton got the Iraq contracts. “This multibillion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton was suspicious from day one, and now our worst suspicions are confirmed,” Lautenberg said. “The FBI doesn’t get involved unless there are possible criminal violations.”
It’s not the Oakley that makes him look badass, it’s the little dog…
Yeah, I was thinking that it couldn’t be the assault weapon or the uniform….why is this guy so badass looking…hmmm…Damn!! Those glasses ARE BADASS…but The Puppy!!!!…I mean how BADASS do you have to be to carry a puppy in a Friggin’ Warzone!!!!???? *for DevilDog2 THIS IS SARCASM*

Cue high pitched whining that you don’t respect the military…
Now we know you were not in the military- you would have been fragged by your team before the end of the first week!
Ah, more bellicose meanderings… tell us again what a great man you were in your military days, cleaning out the Cessner… or perhaps your derring-do as the Bagpipe playing Diplomat…
Unc, I think AF (aka Fat Bastard) must have watched Platoon last night…came up with a new military euphamism to try and use today…
Oh probably. Sad little man…
A friend of mine has a book of military slang that was the height of hilarity when we were fourteen. Methinks this waste of space has the same one.
You think AF has a…book?
No…no…Kuro said she had a FRIEND who has a book…she didn’t say she knew a self-delusional, window-licking, booger-eating jagoff who had a book….
Then she indicated thinking that “this waste of space
has the same” book. I’m worried for her, frankly.
Let me guess- not one of you p*ssies ever were in the military? I hope Obama brings the draft back so you get your asses jerked into the military and see the other part of the world ( besides your tiny little corners). My friends killed in action were ALL better people than you wastes of oxygen- but we all knew that anyway.
Imaginary friends will come back, so just sit back, close
Now don’t you feel a whole lot better?
your eyes, and *poof* there they are again!
Well, I’d say all you’re doing now is proving more and more that you were never Mil… just delusional.
To invoke the dead… oh… A REAL vet wouldn’t do it…
As true as that is, you are venturing into ‘no true Scotsman’ territory here.
“My friends killed in action were ALL better people than you wastes of oxygen”

And yet, somehow, here you are on our site once again.
He’s like those people who try to get free drinks talking about GW1 or the Falklands… I’ll spare the descriptive pronouns, but he’s a parasite…
Interesting. All people I’ve known that have died were a lot nicer than you come across as. And they seemed more together, including the ones who have committed suicide. So, where is the “my dead people could beat up yours”-idea going?
He was the youngest general ever, AND a supermodel, and can’t possibly be racist.
With huge breasts, and all of his employees love him.
You’re trying to sound like you were in the military, but it just sounds like you are an average CoD4 player.
more like cue high pitched peta bull…
That too… All the different Care Trolls will be out in force…
Jesus on a Bigwheel! Don’t give PETA another argument!!
Based on the man’s operational postion, he could have to gutter dive at any moment. That is not a good thing to do while carrying a pup, so it’s a valid point…
Yes, it’s nice he’s got it, but in that situation… it’s something to give one pause.
Oh, I agree with the statement…I just don’t want to start hearing about PETA now suing the military because a soldier picked up a defenseless puppy in a warzone…I definitely think that there may be a squish factor involved…could you imagine the Military Drycleaning Bill for all the uniforms with “puppy squish stain removal”???
… or just the perfectly normal puppy stains.
Vanish Oxy-Stain spray… nothing better for all sorts of blood stains…
Saw a comedian once a long time ago who said if you like to freak people out do this:
Splash some water on your face and act REAL nervous at a laundromat. Walk up to a customer and say, “Umm…do you know how to get blood out of things? I mean, I can use stain remover to get it off my clothes, but is it good for getting blood off the walls too? I mean…it’s a LOT of blood!!!”
Similarly, I heard a comedian once talking about getting rid of sales calls…in response to a call from a carpet cleaning company, responding something like “Oh, wow, it’s amazing that you called when you did! Can you get over here today? Oh, your company can get blood out of carpets, right? Lots of blood?”
On a related note, the last time I bought one of those giant Igloo coolers (the kind you take on camping trips), it was all I could do not to ask if it would hold ‘a 130lb bod…….er……..deer carcass. Yes, that’s it. Deer carcas.’
I have a feeling you’d be fun to shop with.
*mommy senses tingling*
Did somebody say shopping????
You coming with us?
Yay! Shopping!
….N.B. “Shopping” not “buying.” Spent most of this afternoon with my friend, trying on clothes we were to skint and stingy to buy.
*too skint.
*grabs credit cards and car keys*
Why are we still here?!
To the caaar! I call shotgun.
Depends on the shopping… but hell, I’m up for it… I usually am…
First stop…to the hardware store to get rat poison to put in AF’s bagpipes!!
Ooh! Let me get my coat!
He’s poison enough… To try and use dead soldiers to bolster his position… god…
The man has managed to get to child molester status…
“To try and use dead soldiers to bolster his position…”
Yeah, and it’s silly too, of course. Using live soldiers (with good equipment) is far more efficient.
Maybe, but they keep squirming when
you’re trying to sleep.
And slipping out of their shams.
Yours sound badly behaved!
Dans le lit avec un pénis?
Mais oui!
But we digress. The point here is that
AF couldn’t pull off a clever sham if his
pathetic little life depended on it.
But that point seems unnecessary to make by now.
Necessity, the mother of invention,
invariably invents necessary invocations for
needless invitations to invalidate narcissistic
invalids.
My ickle head hurts now.
)
(But, reallly: Nice!
Tack så mycket!
… w00t!?
Well, now i just have to ask: are you Swedish? ;p
Maternal Grandparents, Effie and Elmer.
Aah, that explains it, a bit.
Svenskarna blinkning mycket.
Vurnska hurbidi chiki stu…hee’bidi chiki chiki…
Sorry, I only speak Mock Swedish. {link}
Speaking of which, PETA is protesting the horse drawn carriages in New York.
Good idea PETA, shut down a 100 year old business. This is a great time to have a few hundred more people unemployed. *golfclap*
Considering he’s a soldier who seems to be ready for action, “falling over” was not the puppy-horrors that came to my mind, no. :/
(Oops, I made the same mistake as I’ve done before – used “soldier” as if it were a direct translation from Swedish. I have no idea what part of the military he is a member of, so … “military dude” instead then. ;p)
nah…”Soldier” works…if you’re not sure if Marines or Army…some Marines get offended, but you get a pass on that from most level-headed people…you’re good.
We still prefer military personnel if its unknown. ;p btw that is a Marine. U.S. desert colored digital print is Marines
It’s urban warfare, not dissimilar to NI in UK terms. ‘Falling over’ may not be significant risk, gutter diving is…
Toting puppies around is a good way to get yourself killed and endanger your unit. I knew a Marine officer who got pissed when his Marines tried to pull this kind of crap. He ended up destroying them to keep his unit from being distracted by them and becoming vulnerable. This Marine needs a serious reprimand.
It *is* in direct violation of General Order 1-A. Assuming of course that we assume the soldiers are in a war zone. Which is likely… But, it is just an assumption.
All true… humanity in soldiers is a thing that gets them killed pretty damned quickly… Unpalatable, but the way of things.
Couldn’t this be thought of as a “hearts” aspect of the “winning hearts and minds” slogan*? According to PR releases, the troops are engaging in many “community building” activities, so it seems like puppies-in-pockets behavior may not be frowned upon in this war/military action, considering the confusing and various roles thrust upon the troops.
*Note “slogan,” not “motto,” there
True enough…
Sure it could be thought of that way, but a loaded rifle in the ‘alert’ position suggests otherwise.
Maybe it’s for eating later. Best way to keep meat fresh in that environment is to keep it alive until you’re about to cook it…
Cry “Havoc!” and release the OMGPONIES! of War!
*releases Seth’s Chluthlu*
I’ve never heard it called THAT before!
I didn’t know Seth was Japanese…
*points to self* Not a gamer, not a geek, never heard of the squid-face before coming to PK, and I was guessing on the spelling based on a Google search. *presents pasty ass for kissing*
-
Isn’t that ‘…let slip the OMGPONIES of War!’ Henry V pt II the ‘shroomed up touring version
*in screechy Scrappy Doo voice* – “Puppy POWER!!!”
arrrg…I annoyed myself.
Scrappy-Doo ruined that show. I still resent the decision to add him, many years later.
Truer words have not been spoken on PK. Death to Scrappy-Doo!
I loved how he was the baddie in the live action film…
Crap! Sorry!
I’m always giving away the end of films and books….
It’s probably fine. It wasn’t that great of a movie (no offense to anyone who liked it), so if anyone’s going to see it, they probably have already.
they made a live action movie of scooby doo?
who played scooby?
rosie odonnell?
A ghastly CGI thing… and the one they got to play Velma Dinkley was just HOT!
Oh yes she was…
I’d have misted her glasses for her
I was thinking of making her go Jinkies between moans…
There speaks the pervert’s pervert! Sir, it’s a privilege…
Again, there speaks the pervert’s pervert! And again, Sir, it’s a privilege…
Honored to be of service.
Honored to be of service.
you’re so honored you had to say it twice?
It bears repeating.
I got told it was a duped comment, so…
but I could have said it just got better the more I thought of it…
The joys of double posts.
And yes, Velma has a special place in my heart of fictional characters I would enjoy molesting.
Wilma Flintstone or Betty Rubble?
Betty seemed more fun to me.
Wilma seemed the one who was more worth corrupting… Betty already had a dirty mare edge…
Sometimes, I don’t want to start all over again but you do have a point with Wilma, if she isn’t already a closet Mistress with more training than I could possibly imagine.
YES I SO agree. UGH I HATED Scrappy
Sooo, sorry if anyone else mentioned this in the gazillion other comments on this pic, (I did try to read through most of them) apologies. I don’t really care if this is propaganda or not, it’s a cute picture. If you’re interested in pets for our soldiers and what it’s like over there (all in one!), you might want to check out a book called From Bagdad With Love, by a Liutenant Jay Kopelman. He’s also written another book about his experiences with the puppy he rescued now living in the United State.
NO, it’s not been mentioned. Thanks for the info. I’ll look it out, since I need books that shake my faith in human nature. It was why I liked Schindler’s Ark and The Good Nazi of Nanking: The War Diaries of John Rabe… they completely rattle my faith…
This guy is awesome! They’re not allowed to rescue animals. It’s a distraction and if something happens to the kewt (yes too much time on lolcats – sue me) then it impacts on morale. The book “from bagdad with love” is all about this, because it’s a soldier talking about how he rescued a puppy and smuggled him in his backpack between posts and tried to get him to america.
If the military can ID his face from this pic then he can be charged for this!
Oh and I agree with Uncle Fester *ahem* BOOBIES!
If any one is really interested, I work in the Marine Corps photo archives, I actually have that pictures on my wall, looking at it now (soo cute). I have a collection of these photos.
anyways, It’s a Marine. The photo was taken by a Combat Camera Marine and it was during the push into Fallujah a few years ago. Which you can tell it was from a few years ago anyways because his gear doesn’t match.
And yes this Marine was worried about the puppy getting hurt if his Marine ended up in combat.
And from what I heard a few years ago, Marines were issued Oakleys. I’m sure for tactical reasons.
not even funny.
So, now we have an unfunny LOL and an even more unfunny whine from you… I bet people miss the space you occupy when you enter the room…
I don’t like it when the cats are frightened, either…
I had a friend at college who spent a year in Iraq. He told me that the abandoned dogs LOVED the american soldiers there. The US soldiers would pet them, but would use their feet in their shoes to do it since the dogs had so many fleas. But the dogs hated Iraqies. They would growl and bark when they knew one of them was getting near a base.
It’s due to the Islamic view of dogs…
you’re prob. right… iraqis view dogs as being dirty and religiously unclean.
Tactical Advantage against females!
I simply couldn’t leave your web site before suggesting that I really loved the usual information a person supply on your visitors? Is gonna be back steadily in order to check up on new posts
Careful, Unc…I’ve seen his type before…he might hit you with the “Oh yeah? Let’s step outside you commie-lovin’-hippie” statement…
I’ve been threatened with worse, by meaner than him, in places where I can actually smell their breath … Threats on the internet seem to the staple of bone heads. Like the farting of dogs, it’s strident, and best made a joke of…
Agreed…it use to be telephone muscles…now it’s shifted to internet…BTW, was I the only one getting images of Fat Bastard from Austin Powers yesterday when AntiFester said he played the bagpipes…..?
ROFL! Not until you mentioned it….
I’ll always see him that way from now on… with a wincingly bad Scots’ accent.
Plays louder ” Get into MAH belly!!!!!”
Not even close, MG. So you weigh what, Oprah level or Liz Taylor size?
5’11″ 127lbs…c-cup…eat you’re heart out you scumbag!
Now that hit a nerve, didn’t it Smilin’ Jack?
You missed out ‘morbidly obese’…
mg… can i come visit? i think we’d get along great…
Wow, you sound tiny…
Helooooooooooooooo Nurse!
Yeah , right, scumbag. You are a 5X5; five foot tall and five foot wide and pushing five hundred pounds. And I’m 6’8″, 180 pounds of pure muscle and look like Fabio !
Sorry, I even felt bad about the scumbag comment…I think he falls short of scumbag qualifying standards…ex-mil, bagpipe afficianado, half-wit, in-bred, morbidly obese…wait…nope…he’s a scumbag…
I like the sense of efficiency…
Too many years of competetive swimming, I’m afraid…Never got the “East German Shoulders”, but still love swimming…not to sound like HHNF, AF or any of the other goobers, but I still compete Master’s open-water swims…
Again, the delusional rablmlings of an empty weakling, who really, really, wanted to be a ‘real boy’ and just failed… you must have disappointed the other kids in the orphanage…
looking like fabio isn’t anything to be proud of… he did get smacked in the face by a goose [LINK].
Actually, I think you’re the 5×5…it’s only 5″ long (when masured from your taint) and you only last 5 seconds before you disappoint women with your “O-face”…loser.
when the other boys weren’t using you for sex…
Actually, I think you’re the 5×5…it’s only 5″ long (when masured from your taint) and you only last 5 seconds before you disappoint women with your “O-face”…loser.
Even then, he was a disappointment…
Stupid nesting fail…that is meant for the ramibling idiot known as AF…
Ah, a water nymph. Cool. Good luck with your next one and all that.
…a bit cold here on the East Coast for me right now…mostly swimming indoors with friends…probably doing one this Summer in the Chesapeake…
*opens door for DWN to reply ‘in bed’ ‘with a penis’*
master’s swim meets… on the east coast? don’t you know they have real seasons there? you should come to the california… i played water polo in college on the east coast… and i couldn’t stand the winters… speaking of which, i should probably get back in a pool soon… haha…
It was worth repeating… The man deserves every ounce of disdain and opprobrium one can manage… to pull the dead buddies card… that’s really just sick. Just dig them up and skull f**k them, why don’t you?
I do find it to be a piss upon their graves to use them to try and win points in internet posturing. Assuming he even has any record or dead friends.
Indeed…
He obviously has no military experience
whatever, or surely he would have been a
“friendly fire” casualty.
As despicable as playing the “dead buddy”
card is, at least we have the comfort of
knowing it’s not true.
Fabio was on flight 1549?
hahahahaah! that’s terrible, but i still laughed.
Feeling himself up and going, “Ai’m dead sexy!”
*shudders*
