That’s funny. I didn’t know he was balding.
-Giggles at pun-
it’s the red-blooded american thing to do. If you keep your hair you’re a communist.
How do you explain Lenin?
Wig
Toupee or not toupee???
…that is the question. Whether tis nobler on the dome to suffer the weaves and wigs of outrageous designers, or to take plugs against a sea of hairloss, and by opposing, shave them? To shed, to sleep, no more!
Froo with a Shakespearean interpretation FTW!!!!
Not my best work, but I was in a hurry
Nicely done nonetheless.
Excellent!!
I have a feeling Shakespeare would have been proud of that. Especially with his own chrome dome.
What’s that make us longhairs?
Metalheads.
Just like albinos, it’s a rare sub-breed of american.
That eagle looks my my 7th grade English teacher.
Steagle Cobeagle? Is that you?
And suddenly, bald eagles aren’t endangered any more.
…and Sarah Pailin now has some free time for hunting…
Oh, come on, MG. I thought we were through with Palin jokes after last week’s Palin-fest.
At least substitute in Cheney or something.
Cheney only shoots people in the face though…
while “hunting” for semi-flightless birds with clipped wings…
Yes, but notice that this eagle is still alive. Obviously, the bullet had to go somewhere.
At least he’s got a little actual hunting cred, unlike Senor Kerry, who apparently thinks you have to army-crawl to hunt deer…….

*still giggling over the video of that*
I still like the video of Putin hunting Elk in Siberia. I saw it a long time ago… googled it, but couldn’t find a link…
Does he even need a gun, or does he just jump from the trees with his buck knife held in his teeth and slit their throats?
That’s Chuck Norris.
I’ve seen Putin while burninating Siberian peasants, dudes, you don’t WANT to know how this guy hunts. Hint- he doesn’t use a gun. He catches up to the animal? It’s like pshoo three punch knockout, game over baby. This guy is crazy, man! Like, so crazy baby! BE. GENETICALLY. DIFFERENT.
(Hint- the first sentence is the only one that isn’t a parody from the character Brucie, of Grand Theft Auto IV, who shoots whale testosterone and is an idiot.)
“Kerry’s having flashbacks again! Someone get his meds!”
Did he get any medals?
No. Way. Where?
*googles*
Sorry… wasn’t here much last week… do we have a moratorium on Pailin jokes??
Are we not drawn onward, we few, drawn onward to new era?
(I don’t know about Palin-jokes, but Palin-dromes should be OK).
Cheney taught her how
zzz
Is this something that you would understand if you watched his show?
Kinda. He shaved his head in a recent episode, by the President’s orders. So now Stephen Colbert is bald. The picture is a bald eagle. . . Yeah.
Oh, I see. Thanks.
That, and he has an attacking eagle image in the opening sequence to his show.
and a bald eagle son
Truthiness!
bitter troll hates truthiness, makes bitter troll feel weird and smoosh in the middle. that makes bitter troll bitter
dirty troll likes feeling weird and smoosh in the middle…or slightly lower.

Hope the link works. Does it look like a scene from Birds to anyone else?
That is such a cool video.
I was waiting for one of the eagles to pick up one of the little kids and fly off…
very cool video
Yikes! So thats what happens if you do the nasty with Lady Liberty!
That was funny… something he would do on his own show…
Win!
Except that the eagle has always stood for patriotism (as long as we accepted it to have that meaning), whereas Stephen Colbert stands for exactly opposite what he says on his show. It’s an interesting tactic, certainly, but living a lie does get old after a while.
Stephen Colbert uses satire to express comedic impressions.
There’s nothing wrong with that, and he’s not anti-American.
Just because he jokes about America and plays a character that provides people with, occasionally, surprisingly insightful comments on today’s culture and our logic, doesn’t mean he’s not as much a patriot as a guy who stands by the flag armed and ready to shoot the first person that violates his right to think he controls the world.
I never said that Colbert wasn’t patriotic, just that what he says on his show (the overt “republican” tones) are a lie and not what he truly believes. For example, he states often that he’s out to “bring down the Obama Presidency.” RIGHT.
You can call it satire, I still call it lying. But I did figure at least one person would accuse me of calling him unpatriotic, so thank you for confirming my assumption.
and those people on the soap opera’s they not really cheating on each others spouses with each other, no they liars too!
Then why is there a magazine that reports on what the soap opera characters are doing in the shows!??!!??!?!???!!?!???!!?!??!!!?!??!!?
>.>
How long did it take for you to figure out he was a satirist? :;-):
well, crap, that smily thingy didn’t work it was supposed to be a wink
wait so fox news isnt satire?
No more satire than any of the other 24 hour news networks.
But definitely the most sad ire.
That would be CBS…
“Except that the eagle has always stood for patriotism (as long as we accepted it to have that meaning), whereas Stephen Colbert stands for exactly opposite of what he says on his show.”
You realize that, grammatically, you say that the eagle stands for patriotism, while Stephen Colbert stands for the opposite of what he says on his show. This implies that what he says on his show is patriotic, and since Stephen Colbert doesn’t truly mean what he says, he cannot be represented by the bald eagle because he is not patriotic enough- because he doesn’t mean the “patriotic things” he says.
It’s actually a pretty logical interpretation of what you were saying, really. Sorry if you don’t approve of satire, but it’s funny and has quite a few good jokes about the world today. Just because he pretends to be something he isn’t (pretty openly, actually) and makes jokes about it doesn’t mean he’s lying.
It’s called long-term character acting.
You realize that you’re inferring something that’s not there, don’t you?
It’s an inference, yes, but it’s a logical one and one that is very easily gained when you read through the first half of your sentence there.
Intentional wording is intentional. ; )
I know. But deliberately phrasing arguments to get a response ore certain reaction is called trolling.
Or at least, according to the Wiki definition.
ore reaction? Don’t I mean or reaction?
FAIL.
No, you’re right, I’m an IRON TROLL. You cannot stop my metallic trolling!
Except with water…
Do not be silly. The iron will melt under the fury of my dragon-man ish BURNINATION.
I’m so proud of earning the Trogdor title.
Don’t make me break out the WARGARBLING!
: P
yep satire is totally a synonym for lying. everyone knows swift is such a hypocrite for not eating babies like he said we should.
Really? You call satire lying? What are actors, pathological liars?
FFS.
And on a spin off of a show that bills itself as “fake news”. I don’t think they were trying to get one over on anyone.
I miss their old slogan “When news breaks, we fix it” Was watching night at the roxbury the other day and saw that billboard in the background and had a little chuckle.
yes, because criticizing your country means you hate it, just like criticizing your child does.
Never said he hated it. That’s TWO!
you means something not true on a comedy central news show???? OMG
Jon Stewart actually does have a slight degree of truth within the jokes, you just have to pay close attention to see it. ; )
Slight. However, you can’t blame him for his bias, he does call his own show a “fake news show.”
Yeah, it’s his show, and it’s comedy. It’s not real, so therefore Stewart and his writers can take whatever bias they want. It’s not like he’s being held to any sort of journalistic integrity. Although sometimes it’s actually funnier just telling the truth of the story and let the joke make itself.
And frequently, that’s what Jon does. I’m not sure the poor man is ever going to retire.
By the way, Sean Hannity gave up criticizing Stewart. Win!
Hannity was fighting a losing battle. Pundit vs. comedian? Comedian is gonna win every time.
Plus the fact that Hannity is an asshat who didn’t even read or watch what Stewart says, whereas Stewart replayed both criticisms of him by Hannity on the show to the audience.
I think “asshat” is a bit strong for Hannity. It fits O’Reilly, but I’ve never thought of Hannity as that big a trad. I rather enjoy his (radio) show.
Admittedly, I don’t know too much about Hannity.
I’ve only seen the occasional clip here, but man does he come across like a dick when he insults one of my favorite funnymen just cause the company did something ridiculous and dedicated an entire segment each day to advertising for coffee.
You’ve illustrated one of my main pet peeves with people (please don’t take this personally).
-
If you’ve never watched, how in the world can you possibly know if the person is being taken out of context? This is why I may tease about Keith Olberman, but I’ve never just out and out said he’s a liar or made any other judgements about him. I dont’ watch him, so I’m not qualified to comment about him. The same goes for 90% of Rush criticizers. I guarantee you that they haven’t heard more than a few minutes (maybe, at best, an hour) of the show, and can’t really see the forest for the trees.
-
You may now resume your previously scheduled LOL.
No offense taken.
However, I’d advise him to be careful who he insults… If he goes after another comedian, I’m going to get out the PSG-1.
when did green lantern get a news show?
I could say the same thing about our president threatening a certain radio host with a beating administered by a lackey, but I won’t
No. He’s an asshat.
I’ve never watched Hannity’s tv show, so I can’t really comment on that. He may very well be an asshat on TV. I just like listening to his radio show, and he seems to stay away from asshattery there.
Steven Colbert, the person, isn’t living a lie. He’s playing a character. Some may even call it… acting.
Steven Colbert, the character, is a satiric representation of right wing pundits. Specifically Bill O’Reilly.
/golfclap
Congrats!
There are a lot of people here who can express themselves rather well, whereas you have a very pink avatar.
Default avatar FTW!
You mean FTewww?
It takes a real man to wear pink…
…armor in Halo 3.
It’s not pink. It’s lightish red.
Yeah, they already have a color for lightish red. You know what it’s called? PINK.
But that’s not MANLY, Blarg. We musn’t have men running around in something called pink! Lightish Red is so much less not manly, hehe.
There’s nothing more manly than your corpse being tea bagged by a dude wearing pink.
Would this dude be the dude disguised as a dude wearing another dude’s pink?
opp?
Damn you, pittypat, for getting that song stuck in my head yet again! DAMN YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!
Clearly it’s purple.
I believe the eagle in the photo should have its beak wide open, shreiking truthiness.
Yes, in fact, as the resident dragon of PK, I shall launch a formal petition to the King of Bald Eagles to have his peasant (displayed here, pre-burnination) open his beak and screech TRUTHINESS!
On a serious note, this bird is one of the primary symbols of America, yet they don’t get treated with that sort of respect. It’s odd to think that a bird actually represents a nation. The eagle isn’t actually a patriot. It’s a bird. I saw a couple of them at a visit to Grant’s Farm yesterday and they really were awesome birds. There was a sign about why they don’t fly away: the eagles they have were injured at some point and can’t fly anymore.
we had some wild ones by my house last year, a mating pair. they can be a bit scary in the wild >.>
Imagine if Franklin had his way. Do you think we’d still have Turkey at Thanksgiving? Or would it be unpatriotic to eat it? What a sad, sad loss to the culinary would that would have been.
We’d be eating bald eagle instead. With a mango salsa.
Would that were to happen, we’d woo woodchucks, wouldn’t we?
nah we’d eat it, after all armadillo is the state mammal for texas, and they’re a main ingredient in chili often enough
Well here in New York the state mammal is beaver, and that gets eaten all the time …
bravo, i say bravo.
pffft pfffft ech yuck, dis kitteh lieks burdz, butt dis burd naot eagle material imo. kobur shud naot b eagle, bawld or naot, shud b doe doe burd, or vuhltshur imo kobur bald kause hiz kitteh gotz hold ob hiz hairz n gotz bad hair ballz frum ebil taynted hair ob hiz. kitteh koffz up n spitz out hairball!!!….
Wrong place.
mmm kitty tastey!
So, you’ve come here eh.
Well, first, I’m going to stick a twig so far up your ass it will hemorrhage your large intestine.
Then, I take the twig out, only to put tiny, tiny flaming pieces of charcoal into you. After that, I breathe fire into your face until your skin melts off, and slide my large dragon tongue into your ear and swallow your brain.
LOLspeak is a waste of intelligence.
is it wrong that turns bitter troll on?
No, it’s oh-so-right…
LOLspeak is excellent, done right and in captions on icanhascheezburger. Most lolspeak-writing people can’t handle its grammar though. Nor do they actually write funny stuff, which is a must.
Yeah. Pointless LOLspeak babble means that I’m going to murder babies.
LOTS OF BABIES.
tastey tastey babies…dont waste fresh soft tender meatz
mmmmm, Shish-ke-baby.
now bitter troll goes home, has day off.
This might be one of the Eagles from the National Eagle Center at Wabasha MN. I’d guess it was Angel because it hasn’t got quite as much black spots on its head as Colombia or Harriet. If it was in a ceremony, it probably was one of them, but it might just be a random eagle.
