Breaking News – Blagojevich offers to resign “if price is right”
(Rod Blagojevich)
picture: dunno source, via our lol builder. lol caption: heatherjlc
LIKE THE GAME SHOW?!?!
I’d like to bid ONE DOLLAR, Bob! *shrieks, pumps fist in air*
Thanks for a good laugh, heatherjlc.
Mah pleasure!
But I should stipulate … this trainwreck’s LOLs create themselves.
Okay, Atlas. Whatever you say.
I meant Rob is a trainwreck, not me; although right now I feel kind of like I’ve been hit by the stupid express!
We’ll all be okay. This is just a fun masquerade ball, right?
Who knew your LOL would be such a strange one?
Whew! Agreed!
Gotta run. I think I’ll stay a monkey, although I did the “nappy headed hoe” thing for as a not to Uncle Fester after he got called a racist a few LOLs back.
THAT made me LOL!
*as a nod to
Sheesh.
Oh. It’s you. I have to reevaluate my laugh now.
Just kidding.
(People mixing usernames all over makes me confoozled though! ;p )
A funny LOL!
YAY!! Good one!!
Blago just keeps getting better and better, doesn’t he?
Like watching a train wreck…
In slow motion…
And the cars are full of dynamite and pudding.
On the subject of ‘trainwrecks’… my messing with the ‘Breaking News’ format [link]
“Yo Blair” could be a musical number….
That could be a good book cover: Jazz Hands for Idiots.
“The Ballad of The Sexed Intelligence Report”
“The Selling of Colin Powell”
“Me and My Shadow- I Know Him So Well (The Love theme)”
…and super balls and slinkies…
and clowns *shudders*
The clowns will be casualties.
*kicks a clown corpse*
Elbie… something just for you behind my name…[link]
*is disturbed*
*joins the disturbary with ElbieSee in solidarity*
*laughs at ElbieSee and Literal for being sissies*
C’mon, now. Everybody did something silly like that
as a kid, amirite? …
I certainly did…
Sometimes I still do…
You’re good people, Aed!
there’s an animated version of the whole ‘Dead Clown’ saga…
I’ll dig it out…
“Like watching a train wreck…
In slow motion…
And the cars are full of dynamite and pudding.”
`
Oh noes!! The pudding train is wrecked and blown up???
*cries*
{asks fearfully}
And the lipgloss train? Any news as to its whereabouts?
It collided with the prison train early this morning. Didn’t you hear?
I’ll bet that was… interesting.
There was a riot over the last “Passion’s Promise.”
Too late Blago.
Typical Republican.
Typical Politician*
Why do you get a Power ranger fairy with a skull and I get some strange geometric thing in monkey crap brown… (although Buick called it ‘Tope’)
because you don’t know how the internet works
Oh, I have a reasonable grasp of protocols, fibre infrastructures, server config etc…
Who needs to know about ‘blogs’?
http://en.gravatar.com/
Thanks ethana2. I always wondered where avatars came from. I used to wonder that about babies, too…became a bio major!
Interesting. Let’s see if it works.
Perhaps now…?
Great, I lose the ability to post as n8. Sucktastic.
I said before, stick to something that is hard to forge and simple
“some strange geometric thing in monkey crap brown”
`
Also a descriptor of Blago’s ‘do.
Describing his hair like that is an insult to monkey poo.
Somehow, I don’t think that was AC, just someone showing the pride of the American ‘Veteran’…
Yup, definitely not me…..
Am going to have to read all the comments pages now to see what he’s said in my name….
Seems he wants you more than he wants me now… Filthy, stalking piece of trash…
Did PK always have those little pictures next to the name? Thank goodness they’re here now -AF’s that swirly green snotter thing and I will be able to see who he is now.
I guess enough people complained about the socks!
Now we can check and see who your sock was…
I’ve looked, it seems it was someone who also pretended to be UF and Seth.
Indeed, the green snotter icon definitely resides next to the name of… Anti Fester!
He shall never sock again! Mwahahahaha!
OOOOOOOhhhhhhhhh, it’s the end of the PK sock era….
Also = megabob…
Also = AtlasShrugged
Also = Astroboy
I knew there was a reason I felt an overwhelming desire to go after that litte f**ker on behalf of AC. Grrrrrrrr!
They tend to find one or two upon which to
cling. Unc and AC had one, Froo and I had
another; DWN, minerva146, and ema had
theirs. I don’t pretend to understand the
mentality, but figure insecurity has a lot to
do with it.
I think we can officially discount the ‘service record’ bull… BETH?
I mean, I knew AF was Mike -but Beth too… And MEGABOB? He seems to be every troll who’s ever terrorised PK…
But he’s not EP, and neither is the sock
below…
@ Literal: Just been on RoflRazzi -that was you scaring Astroboy/AF/Be
Thank you….
th/MegaBob/Mike/Atlas…
I’d not say ‘terrorised’… been “loudly pathetic”
My distinct pleasure! I admit it freely and enjoyed it immensely.

-
I love this email dealie
-
You’re taking crap from Astroboy on my behalf, UF!
@Literal: *giggles* I can’t wait for Unc to
check your link. Thanks for the laugh of
the day!
Oh yeah … ba ba bah bahh ba … I’m lovin it!
*where did that come from*
I think I may be a bit in my cups!
SOCK!!!!!!!
Actually, most republicans aren’t in the democratic party.
Except Zell Miller and Joe Lieberman.
Zing!
Typical AtlasShrugged… seems we have a ground zero… I like the Beth sock puppet
charro seems to be not allowed to post on PK anymore.
he’s a democrat.
AVATARS!!!!!!!!!!!
This is rhorho, pretending to be AC….
YAY!!
OOOOH! Avatars! I can’t wait to see what mine looks like!
And congrats on the awesome & funny frontpage lol, Literal!
Hmm. Looks like a quilt square or something. Oh, well — red suits me.
Now I’ve got “Lady in Red” for an earworm. And I really don’t much care for Chris DeBlargh…
Ooh, look, it’s a blue harlequin that rolled a 4. If the other die came up 3, I win!
I’ve put a picture on my profile page-why is it not my avatar? Did I miss a vital step?
You have to go to gravatar.com and upload the pic to create your avatar.
i’m new at this whole deal… did it work?
Takes a few minutes…
no. maybe now, i think i had to change my name to make it work
still no. daaaaaaammit. i want everyone to see my absurdly cute puppy when i made her wear antlers!
It’s appearing in the recent comments box…
That’s just SICK!
And here, now. (Though it’s not easy to see the puppy, I must say.)
yay! it’s working and i can use my real name not that whole “no spaces” thing.
for a full sized picture of the puppy, click my name
Haha. She looks slightly skeptical about them.
she actually wore them for several hours on christmas day. it was the older dog who you’d put them on and then 10 seconds later she’d be chewing on the headband part…
This makes no sense now.
LOL!
Me neither. Ew. Sorry.
I wonder what it goes by… I just looked at one of my posts from September and it has the same avatar. MAC address maybe? *ponders*
Megabob has the same green avatar as that one that’s been socking around, too, how interesting…
Oh wait, that’s right, punditkitchen didn’t have them until just now.. Odd, the other sites did.
It goes by email address.
Ah. Thanks.
*just checking*
And Ubuntu? HTF?
Dear PK,
You are fabulous. Thank you for the avatars.
from
AC
Looking over some of the sock rich exchanges over the past few days is ‘interesting’….
I was just skimming over some of those myself. It’s both entertaining and educational.
I’ve discovered some. Maybe we should share what we’ve found, and
not duplicate efforts.
What do you think?
Do I sense a ‘hunt’? Jolly good…
Makes me wonder if Evil Pundit is still lurking around here…
You rang …?
[LINK] Notice any avatar resemblance?
Oops! Nesting fail on me.
(I’m used to Unc with that
symbol.)
I have the following
AntiFester
Quirk
RuPaul
AtlasShrugged
Beth
Whiney Democrat
Mike
Megabob
Astroboy
(Seth)
(AC)
I’d not count known user socks… other than it’s interesting to see who he’ feels threatened by…
That’s why I put them in parentheses.
also “eddie” [LINK]
also “GungaDin” [LINK]
Interesting one… seems he has imaginary
friends who answer him.
Dicky-Bob also used:
Spanky
B-HO
BDRM
NoKoolAidHere
Rorsc
M….
@Unc: I’ve been thinking about that one.
Evidently AF didn’t want to be called out as a
racist, so he socked as a one-time character
to avoid sullying the good reputation of AF?
I really feel sorry for him, in a way. He
couldn’t win for losing.
Manky Scots Git was another
Seems that old AtlasS is pretty pathetic…
Bit of desultory looking over the past
threads I stopped counting after 21 socks
from our favourite ‘Veteran’
Hi Literal! [LINK]
Wait — that’s not me! I swear!
What’s going on, then?
I closed my hotmail and yahoo accounts that were associated with my username, and changed my ICHC email address.
Like this? (test)
I’m still waiting for the change to take effect, but yes, it should be soon.
So you did have a little fun with MG, but
you didn’t play EP up there, right?
Swarz! And this is the fourth user name and fake email address I have swiped in the past 15 minutes!
Try it! Just make up any old email address with an @domain …
I have, Atlas, now sock as me. G’on.
Steal my avatar, I dares ya!
Green “Literal” was me.
I has such a confuzed right now!
Was the purple avatar you, rhorho?
*sigh*
I just got myself un-confused about socks when the avatars arrived -it seems a whole new dimension of confusion awaits….
@ AC
I know! I just read some old postings that have my red @msn and @yahoo avatars that weren’t even me!
It’s really quite simple… you make a false
email, you get no notification.
I don’t see it as confusing…
Let me know what you think about this link — mothergoose got hijacked and it was her email address for both the hijacking and the response! I thought that couldn’t happen unless you used and obvious username/email addy.

recent heated exchange.
Please provide links to posts in which your
name was hijacked. You can do so by left-
clicking the time/date stamp, selecting
“copy link location” then pasting the link
to the URI section above the comment
input box.
If your name was ever hijacked, it will be
clear from the mis-matched avatars.
Bad link above. Here’s the right one.
Here’s another link, also not an identity

EXCELLENT!!

(Oh, and, incidentally, I think two of my exhbits up
there are redundant. This one should replace one
of them.)
I guess MegaBob didn’t quite make it to the
Cayman Islands, after all…
Exhibit G [LINK]
Here’s one for Literal! [LINK]
Dammit. How’d you get the link to go half way down the page? Anyway it turns out AF is “eddie” who proclaims Literal’s Lols to be “not funny”….
Thanks!
Sense of humor is subjective, methinks!
BTW … how’s the driving thing goin’ for ya?
Well, I’ve got my provisional license but I’ve still to go about getting lessons… I’ll probably do that once the prelims are over. I’m rather nervous tho -particularly when it comes to roundabouts…. There’s no way nothing will go horribly wrong…
Hah! I am from a state where I was able to get my license at 14!
And sad to say I’ve never experienced a “roundabout.” I’ve seen them in pictures, but never in person …
Provisional license=learner’s permit here in the states.
Are you learning on a standard or an automatic transmission?
@Literal: Nah, I’m not driving yet. You’re allowed to get a provisional at 16 (cos you can drive mopeds and narrow tractors then) but you can’t actually drive a car on a
road until you’re 17…
Roundabouts -oh jings, the stories I’ve been told about them…..
14?
Quick answer — yep, 14! And we STARTED driving with a learner’s permit at 13!
I’m from a state that was forced to change its laws in order to keep its federal highway funding. Now it’s 16.
Good luck on the driving. You’ll do great.
@Literal
They did that in my home state too.
And they changed the drinking age. It was 18, then 19, the blackmailed into 21.
-
That was long after I was of age, and I was going to clubs when I was 16 anyway. That was back in the day when club owners weren’t held responsible though.
@Scum: How many states have you lived in?
MN, MA, CA, HI, AK…
There’s an easier way to collect license
plates, ya noes…
Only 4. I’ve been in AK, but I never lived there.
-
Umm, I didn’t know you were keeping track…
Remind me to be very careful what I say to you from now on.
Don’t worry. I’m acutely map-oriented.
Place names stick, but little else.
Mine has a bit of a winter motif. Which is odd, because even though I was born in the season, I get sick of winter after a month of miserable cold…

another test
Test 2
How’d you do that?
Testing…
Chang your email address, and you can change your avatar!
*change
DOH!
Thankfully you need to know the other person’s email in order to imitate them, but this does mean it is still easy to pretend you aren’t someone else.
Only if you’re asinine to give out your mail to people… and we’re not dealing with a terribly high intelligence that can work out someone’s mail…
I think ‘dumb as a fence post’ covers it…

Dude looks like a Lego…
HAHAHAHAHA That never gets old.
How do you get the naked lady?
Go to your profile and click add picture.
Nevermind, didn’t work.
*trying something else*
*cries*
Holy sh*tfsck it happened all at once.
and back
Thought you didn’t like taupe.
Ew! *goes back to purple*
‘Monkey st*t brown’ – it kinda suits me…
Only if you can get it in a nice fling pattern
If he had my avatar in brown, it’d be perfect!
I’m accused of shit slinging by cretins, and I almost certainly do… may as well ‘live the dream’
Well, I gotta admit that sometimes your “slinging” creates breathtaking masterpieces of modern art.
Other times, you get this {LINK}
Either way; good times, good times.
That it does…
*wonders if this will work*
Addriel,
How did you change your avatar! I’ve been trying to figure it out all morning …
Thanks!
*Aedriel
Can’t type.
I had to get a wordpress.com account, then after that it took 5-10 minutes to kick in…
Now I’m seeing if I’d be able to fsck with people, if I were the type of person to do that…
*waits for avatar to change again*
Ahh … thank you! You’re a gentleman and a scholar. My research indicated I’d have to do that, but I really didn’t want to be compelled to …
-
*Sigh.* More spam. It’s worth it for an individualized avatar, though.
no I’m not a gentleman, I’m a lady, I was just seeing if I could sock…
sorry UF.
Well, I deserve that one, I was messing with MG just like that yesterday …
Thank you, young LAYDEE!
No problem…
*awaits onslaught from UF*
Oh well at least the name change worked.
*sigh* Theres the avatar, now, browser caches …
Fsck it all
*angry* go back to being blank, avatar, I don’t want to look like someone else
‘Bob Barker to oversee resignation’
Alternate email avatar test.
Hmm. No. How about this?
No, that one looks like something rusty that’s been peppered with a shotgun. Last option.
Ok, now let’s try something else.
And that didn’t work.
Oooh! Now it works. I like that one. And it appears to have gone back and changed on my older posts, too. Neat.
Nothing to see here…
Hrm. I think I like this one better. Thoughts?
The purply color’s pretty. Looks a little like a paper snowflake.
Can’t miss the color … I like it fine.
I wonder if he gets to go to the Showcase Showdown?
Congrats Literal.
On a side note, WTF is up with these new icons next to everyone’s name? They suck. They just really get in the way and make everything really ugly and difficult to look at. Do they actually serve a purpose other than to annoy?
They prevent name hijacking, and make ID changes a little more difficult.
I believe all of the other comment sections (e.g. ICHC, IHAH) have them.
Hmm, ok, thanks.
-
There are better ways to handle that, like registered users, which most of us are anyway.
-
Honestly I find it way too annoying to even look at these comments with those things. I guess I just don’t take commenting on some random website seriously enough that I’m going to go register on yet another site and link it up here. Nor am I going to pay that much attention to which obnoxious big colorful blob is sitting next to someone’s name.
Oh well.
Considering that most of us could perhaps be called obnoxious big colorful blobs anyway, it almost seems appropriate.
I’d be willing to bet that within 48 hours almost everyone’s customized theirs anyway so it’ll only be a few big colorful blobs.
I aim to keep my original one. So unless your browser’s cached something else, I should be back to purple snowflake.
I’m more of a big amorphous blob, but I get your point.
Yeah! I figured out how to kill zem all {insert evil laughter here}
-
Now everything looks back to normal and I can actually read the comments again without being distracted by all those shiny objects.
-
I’m running Firefox and the Ad Block plug-in, so I just block everything from gravatar. com
cool
Sorry Literal, I meant to actually say that I like this one of your. It’s one of the few good ‘Rob’ caps that I’ve seen.
*curtseys*
Thank you, kind sir!
Rob Zombie, he of the tribble toupee. Heh!
*test*
Well, the ancient troll supreme is vanguished, his sock weapons destroyed by a deus ex machina… Election-ness has more or less worn off… What will PK do now?
No, Fester is still here posting.
testing fake email
I made up a fake email address and it let me post!
Either that or I just stole someone’s identity
It will let you do that, but nobody can sock as you.
Trolls used to get their IDs mixed up often. Now they have to remem-
ber *two* things, so it will be slightly more tedious for them to change
identities consistently.
multiple windows on Firefox is helpful… you don’t have to retype them
That wouldn’t help me, because I’ve got 20 windows open most
of the time.
BTW, isn’t it funny how we think alike?
for example of Eleint 101
This ISN’T Rho, and they can’t use that mail again, since we have the patternn
Got it, and I have been posting here for weeks and never noticed until today that little box you can check in the lower left hand corner, you know the one that says “Literal, you’re a total retard?”
Yet again, I prove what a dipstick I am.
Good thing I’ve got a sense or humor so I can GTF over myself.
What little box?
Oh, that little box..
I made the mistake of having heath***** as my user name and as my email address for several providers. I didn’t use any special characters for any of them. Not anymore.
I hope nobody’s their username at hotmail … otherwise, I just jacked you all.
I’m not, so no worries there.
Okay, any posting from now on with a “nappy headed hoe” for an avatar is definitely, without a doubt going to be me!
*Sigh*
Oh, I meant with the name “Literal” attached.
One of the things that slows a troll down is that it needs to be informed of a response…it’s its raison d’etre. False mail addresses really don’t suffice…
I don’t understand. What does that mean?
It means you’re a troll, Atlas.
No rho, it really is me, and I really don’t understand
If you want, I’ll leave you another message on your profile so you’ll know for sure.
It’s a happy day for those living under the bridge, I think!
simplest way is not have custom avatars
it hashes off the mail address… Electronic Intel 101- if
there’s something hard to forge, then use it.
The best thing to do is to use the same photo or
avatar all of the time, and not to use a predictable
email address.
Sense… at last… what do they feed you people?
Change your photo to the other one, then.
The red one?
Test.
Simian test
Three words. Obama’s. Birth. Certificate.
-
Not your fault, rho. I wouldn’t trust me right now either.
Jeesus! That was me! I missed a letter in my new email address and look what the fu**ity f*ck happened!
-
Dammit!
If it can’t mail to you, it’s not core troll usable… they need gratifications.
Thank you. I understand that now. I really do appreciate it.
I was looking at the “RECENT COMMENTS” box on the right hand side of the page to keep up with everyone — this is SO much easier!
All the troll has to do is use a different email address… no?
Hi Atlas…
Oh nooooooooooooos!! You got me! I’m ruined… sniff…
Please, tell us more
No, that’s enough for you.
It’s not enough for you though, is it? After all you are the ‘superior’ intellect, sad empty little man… tell us more of the ‘dead’ buddies…
Testing #4 username ….
The avatars! They do nothing!!
Really it depends, now, doesn’t it…
If you’re really that pathetic that you create a new mail for each ID and then watch them, which would indicate that you’re some how subnormal, or certainly mentally ill, or you keep using the same few and get identified very quickly, and thus shown for the saddo you are… it’s not really a winnable situation, either way, you look a fool very quickly…
Wow, that really bothers me… sniff.. I need to go lay down. I’m sooo sad…
NOT!!
Of course not, you think you’re something special. I know you’re not… everyone here can see you’re not.
You’re a poseur…
Takes one to know one!
If you say so…
I KNOW so.
My oh my, the wit that’s on display…
sure you do. ’20 years pilot’… yeah right… you were sussed…
And you can’t make a sock of another poster. Also, AF will have to abandon his (occasionally her) old identities…
@not really BTW
Wow, I can see how much using those little icons has cleared thing up for everyone! Way to go PK!
Scum? Is that you, or have you been possessed by someone else’s avatar?
Both of these are me (above and below), and I did nothing more than alter my email address slightly. I may not be able to mimic someone easily, but I could still pretend to be others and argue with myself (ala rho
)
-
I unblocked gravator .com for now just to see what’s going on with all of this. Forcing people to register is a far simpler way to control multi-usernames, and the dreaded socks. (You could still allow non-registered people to comment, it would just show under the name Anonymous). Much, much better solution.
-
This only seems to be adding to confusion.
-
I’m going to alter my email address again to see what I get now…
Scum, we’d already established the key…
and the only reason it’s causing ‘confusion’ is down to people flapping unnecessarily and not using the LITTLE INTELLIGENCE THEY SEEM TO HAVE BORN WITH…
not that I’m finding the flapping irritating… nothing a solid pimp slap accompanied by the imprecation ‘THINK, YOU MAROON!’ wouldn’t cure…
God’s death but people are stupid and loud…
Shut up big mouth.
You sound awfy familiar, you know……….
He’s just getting a sore arse now his various masks have been unveiled…
He’s certainly not Ex-Mil… and by dint of hard work, has been over half of the ‘insane right wing’ on PK…
I’m sorry I didn’t know about the notification thing. I already apologized and slapped myself across the head.
-
Should I grab a cat-o-nine and flagellate, too?
Well, I hadn’t read through all the comments, but I did go looking into some other threads and noticed different icons showing up under my name, for posts that I know I’d posted. I assumed it was due to the email address being f’ed up and just needed to try a few things like others up here are doing.
-
Unfortunately, you can’t exactly try them in ‘private’, so all of the attempts to determine the limits and use of this new ‘feature’ get published for all to see.
-
another test with this email – using one cap letter, does it matter?…
Ok, that was stupid. Using a Cap in the email address didn’t affect the icon (as it shouldn’t), but it did affect whether or not the system recognized me.
It sent me my own post, which it only does if it doesn’t recognize my email.
-
So, if you want to get your own posts emailed to you, change the case of one letter from your registered email address.
@Scum: I wasn’t alone. [LINK]
All right — who the hell was that?
FROO! You sneaky devil, you!
Why yes, yes I am
You can’t prove that.
In that thread, you see the post by Scum that reads:
“Slowly….backing….away….”
-
That really was me. And so is this
*watches as Scum disappears, leaving nothing but a grin*
Wait! I can prove it. Someone hasn’t changed her avatar yet.
Perhaps you can match up that avatar to many postings under
froo’s, er, that “mystery woman’s” name…
test
And what happens if I change the username, but use the correct email?
For some reason, PK has banned me from posting.
Oh look there I am!!!
that’s because you’re trouble…
Aye, I’ll agree with that assessment.
testing?
I has an avatar! (Hopefully)
