View from the street – Former Bush speechwriters homeless

Unemploymentality. I like it! It’s so Boooshie!
In b4 spam
Heh. C’mon look at ‘em. Obamabase written all over these guys…
Can you translate Obamabase?
I don’t speak right-wing WHARGARBLE.
Maybe it’s like a chicken or beef base, makes your whole soup taste better.
i didn’t think bush had any speech writers to begin with…
He did, but they were mostly done in crayon and fingerpaints
*sigh* And heather returns, hope her jaw’s not sore from the vigorous oral she gave this morning to get this up. I liked yours better, ubr. Also the one that pointed to McDonald’s and said they were hiring.
Honestly, this is one of her better captions. At least it kind of makes some sense, you know, blaming the writers instead of Bush for all the verbal gaffs.
Well, I suppose but I think the picture is hard to work with. If you are given crappy material, you get a crappy caption. I give people props for trying.
Oh I don’t mean that it’s a good caption, not at all. It’s just not as bad as a lot of others, including a lot of hers, which have made it to the front page.
.
Here’s something that a lot of the caption writers don’t seem to understand. If you don’t have something creative to write on a pic, you can skip that pic. Really. You don’t have to write something on them all…
I think we should all go by heather.
Heather, did you have a brain tumor for breakfast? First you ask if you can be red, knowing that I’m always red. [puts croquet ball against heather's and sends it flying]
Only if I get to be Christian Slater
Then we couldn’t call you heather. What is your damage, acsis?
My damage?
Well, only the popular girls were called Heather, and I’ve never been one of the popular girls. So there!
But if I were Christian Slater, I’d get to help destroy the Heathers and their minions…
I was so in love with Christian Slater in this movie and Gleaming the Cube, which was a skateboarding movie.
I’ll tell you a secret, so was I
and in Gleaming, with his friend Yabbo, who was played by Max Perlich
I should track that movie down, it’s been ages since I watched it!
“I killed my best friend”
“And your worst enemy”
“Same difference”
“Seven schools in seven states and the only thing that’s different is my locker combination.”
“Grow up Heather, bulimia’s so ’87.”
I saw this movie recently!
LOL!
Watch it heather, you might be digesting food there.
“Hey, Mom! Why so tense?”
Oh he *still* has them, on retainer in the Dallas house, so he can say, “it’s hard to put food on your family,” and “families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream?”
I heard they let Barney compose most of his speeches for him.
“i didn’t think bush had any speech writers to begin with…
Bush had a team of speechwriters, with one major stand-out. [LINK]
I love that girl’s coat. I’m out of work, how come I don’t have something so nice?!
Macy’s fired her for stealing clothes. She stole the coat before she was let go.
Clearly I’m in the wrong industry.
Clearly, seeing as how the homeless who were served at the soup kitchen last week by Michelle Obama all had cell phones with which to take pictures of said First Lady
Hell, I can’t even afford that nice of a cell phone and I have a full-time job. Mine’s just for talkin on, and such.
Ah, but you probably didn’t help nose dive the global economy into the tarmac…
No mugged someone for one… don’t forget crime… always a good method of getting teched…
Oh, for God’s sake. [link]
Ruby Payne’s The Culture of Poverty. Everyone should read it.
I actually don’t have a problem with that…seems to me that somebody without a regular home base would need a cell phone more than the rest of us. How else is he supposed to get a job or something? Even a cheap prepaid or a phone from Cricket very often has some type of crap camera capability now.
Well, even if you let your service lapse because you’ve fallen on hard times doesn’t mean the camera function ceases to work on a phone you got before you lost your job.
This is obviously some strange form of Street Theatre. The question being.. what is their point?
Their showing that people are living above what they can afford and are expecting other people to help them when they are living better then the people who they are asking for help.
Exactly. IE, CEO’s and Execs asking for a bailout from the taxpayers…the majority of which will never see in their lifetime the money those CEO’s and Execs make in just one year.
or
people making a comfortable living though are not rich deciding a 500k mortgage or refinacing to build a swimming pool complete with waterfall is a GOOD idea and then expecting taxpayers to bail them out
theory works both ways. This country is so phukt
I know, it is depressing if you agree with the liberal theory of who is at fault. It is depressing if you believe the conservatives. Believing both is just god awful
and sadly, both are pretty much true. One side shows greed and complete lack of integrity, the other shows greed and complete lack of common sense.and both are true
like I said. phukt.

Unemploymentality Website
Is that website for serious! I honestly can’t tell if they are making fun of people like that or if they really are the people who are like that. It all seems extremely funny and ridiculous to blog about being unemployed.
Yeah, but it’s a great way to avoid looking for another job. (Or, to be less cynical, to blow off some steam while looking.)
In the age when people update their “what I’m doing right now” lists on Facebook, Twitter, et al, this is no surprise. Some people feel that they’re so important that everyone in the world gives a damn about them taking a dump five minutes before.
And the worst part is you just know there are people who not only do that, but describe it to their friends afterward.
*sigh*…
The world should have ended the first time I read “I’m reading friend’s tweets” on twitter…
I just hate the way “twitter” sounds. “I’m twittering….” *pukes* It’s so…ineffectual sounding.
I’ll blog 4 food . . .
that guy has a nice butt in the top right
I’m sure he appreciates somebody noticing.
did absolutely no one realize that it might not be an idiotic bushism but a very clever use of words? (the mentality of unemployment)
Are you completely new here, completely stupid, or both?
Hey, drowning has a fair point. In fact, I thought the self same thing when I first read it. Don’t get aggressive here – go to 4chan if you want to troll at people.
Tend to agree. “Unemploymentality” is at least as valid as “Religulous”, which was a great documentary by a great man. </threadjack>
There’s a difference between clever wordplay and bushesque language mangling.
This is a ‘lol’ site. The reference to the bushism was the ‘lol’. I’ll grant that it wasn’t actually very funny, but it was the ‘humor’ in the caption.
If the captioner had simply said, “hey, that’s a creative word that there fellow wrote on his sign”, it wouldn’t really be too much of a ‘lol’ now would it.
.
The fact that no one commented on the potential intended meaning behind the made up word doesn’t meant they didn’t get it, it means you don’t get it.
.
So I repeat, are you new, or stupid or both?
I’m voting for both.
I’m voting for new and misdirected.
okay, and maybe not the brightest penny in the desk drawer…
oh wow….I just assumed everyone got that. People DIDNT?? ugh
Don’t know who they are, but that is Market St. at 2nd St. in downtown San Francisco.
Ugh, then they’re in the right place. I’ve been to SF a few times, and the place was already swarming with bums.
These don’t look like spangers to me. Perhaps they’re lost.
Frum isn’t hurting. He just switched to bashing his base, and it’s all uphill from there. Matthews adores him now. No word on whether his leg is tingling.
I think what’s going on in this picture is two people having a photo shoot for their blog, http://unemploymentality.com. Then a reuter’s photography probably happened by and snapped a few quick pics and whala! Internet fodder. It may be a wild guess, who knows.
Voilà. With a V. I suppose “Vwhala!” would be okay, if you can’t get to the character map for the à. Sorry, one of my pet “arrgh”s.
Gotta say, I don’t think this is worth the caption heatherjlc has given it – “unemploymentality” is actually fairly witty, given their context. Maybe I’m just the eternal optimist, but I’d be willing to assume that these signwriters know exactly what they’re doing..
But hey, I’m not complaining.
She’ll blog for food. I’ll tell you what she can do for food. Oh yeah!
I see what you did there. O_o
OMG dat chick is so hawt!
HELLOOOOO! Does nobody realize this is a pun? A joke?
unemployment + mentality = unemploymentality..
Come on people, lets think here.
7: 30: I woke up! The whether is bd.
8 : 00: I dun no if I shud go shopping.
10 : 28: I jst finishd wtchng TV.
ETA: The previous is a joke referring to Twitter, a “social networking” site that should be banned.
For being unemployed and possibly homeless, they look quite fashionable in P-coats, riding boots, and paperboy hats…
Now, say what you think… don’t hold back
I serve a great cyanide soup
Well Nitpicking Nancy, seems we were both wrong. Not that it has anything whatsoever to do with my point. At all.
