    if this was a picture of Obama this lol would never have seen the light of day. but it’s a Republican so it’s ‘funny!’

    • I Like Peanut Butter says:

      Wow starting flame war quickly now are we. It’s ok, since he’d a republican I don’t think he’s really black.

    • Nebton says:

      Probably so, because it’d be a lot less relevant. See, Obama has never said something like

      Could you help a brother out? No more national conventions with 36 people of color in the room.

      or {http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/feb/19/steele-gop-needs-hip-hop-makeover/}.

    • Cracka Smacka says:

      “but IT’S a Republican?” U RACIST!

      Yeah, because black UN helicopters descend and take away anyone who posts an Obama LOL.

      • I Like Peanut Butter says:

        Why can’t it be White UN helicopters, even your transportation is racist. :-)

      • HelOnWheels the Gene Pool Lifeguard says:

        I’m not racist. Some of my closest friends are black UN helicopters but….

        UN helicopters do tend to be white. Don’t blame the messenger; blame the UN for its lack of equal opportunity for helicopters.

        • I Like Peanut Butter says:

          Once again White Helicopters are trying to esponge their rule over Africa. When will they learn, WHEN?

          • Default User says:

            *sings as Mary from ‘Peter Paul and Mary’*
            Where have all the helicopters gone? Long time passing
            Where have all the helicopters gone? Long long time ago…
            Gone to Africa every one.
            When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

            • froofrou the fierce says:

              (to the tune American Pie)

              A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away, Naboo was under an attack…..
              And I thought me and Qui-gon Jin, could talk the Federation in, to maybe cutting them a little slack…..
              Their response, it didn’t thrill us,
              They locked the door and tried to kill us,
              We escaped from that gas, found Jar-Jar and Boss Nast….
              *snip*
              My, my this here Anakin guy,
              Maybe Vader someday later now he’s just a small fry,
              And he left his home and kissed his mommy good bye,
              Saying soon I’m gonna be a Jedi……..soon I’m gonna be a Jedi……

              I’m so very, very sorry :-)

      • Dhoti the anti EWAdamsist says:

        That helicopter should be getting us coffee, amirite?

    • Default User says:

      I don’t think it would have been funny either way.

      • Philadelphia MaMa says:

        Actually, from the perspective of a female admin who’s always having to prop up her boss’ ineptitood… I found the picture damningly funny.

        Unfortunately, I need to be excessively wordy with my punchlines. Not enough ‘zing’ for the Kitchen.

        • Philadelphia MaMa says:

          Err… that is I use too many words.

          For Example:

          “Yet another intern is crushed under the weight of the Republican press machine.”
          – droll.

          “When the intern signed up for a ‘Government Support’ position, this was not what she had expected.”
          – dull.

          “Danger: When posing for a GOP photo-shoot meant to connect with a ‘younger crowd’ – be sure to schedule with your Chiropractor in advance.”
          – not very funny.

          Any takers?

          I imagine folks could go for the standard race/gender jokes, but that’s just so… last century. Don’t you think?

          • dissimilitude says:

            Yeah — I’m not sure what I’d do with this one. The thing that strikes me about it is that it just looks so….80′s sitcom publicity shot. Or possibly “Local Channel Morning Show Promo.” Cheesetastic.

            • HelOnWheels the Gene Pool Lifeguard says:

              Yes, Diss! It’s like a bad fan club photo for “Blossom” or “Square Pegs”.

              • dissimilitude says:

                I had to do “Morning Show Promo” I feel like I should know who the woman in the picture is, but I can’t place her. So I named her Stacy. ;-)

                • Default User says:

                  She definitely looks like a Stacy.

                  • Jane St.Clair Glamorous First Lady of PK says:

                    Get today’s news stories and the latest weather with Michael and Stacy in the morning. Get down with the “down home” news team!

                  • viking gal says:

                    Given her age, pretty good chance she is a Jackie or a Megan.

                    • mabsba says:

                      Just look for dark blue. After our previous Jeep blew up (almost literally), I was looking at a used Explorer. The salesman said they had one in dark blue, so we went to look at it and it was definitely purple.
                      Me “It’s purple.”
                      Him “Only in the sun.”
                      Me “Um, we live in NM. When isn’t it sunny?”
                      Him “Um.”

                      So apparently dark ‘blue’ + sun = purple. :)

                      • mabsba says:

                        What happened to all the comments about the electric car? Are we not allowed to say its name or was it the ‘drive by’ joke?

                        • mabsba says:

                          Ooops. Somehow I posted incorrectly or it was mucked up.

                        • Default User says:

                          Electric car? Um…have you been in Charro’s stash again Mabs?

                        • oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

                          That’s where my vicodin went! And I really need it too. And not for fun I’m seriously in pain.

                        • mabsba says:

                          Naw. I have my own. :) (And I have a prescription.)

                          I just mucked up my post, then I thought the post I was trying to reply to was deleted. What can I say — it’s been a long day.

                        • oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

                          You should mail me some. :-D

                        • mabsba says:

                          Do believe that’s a felony. Love you, dear, but not sure I love you enough to go to jail for you. ‘Sides, I actually do NEED it for my migraines.

                          I do have some leftover Perc*cet, but you would have to come get that yourself. I swear, for all the ranting they do about prescription drug abuse, you go for dental work and they give you a prescription for 30 pills. I’ve never taken more than a couple. ;)

                        • oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

                          I’ll be right there..

                      • Default User says:

                        Er…but the sun is yellow, therefore blue + sun = green.
                        If our sun were a red dwarf then it would be purple! Assuming your using pigments rules. If you’re using light rules then red + blue = magenta, and green + blue = cyan and yellow isn’t a primary color….

                        • mabsba says:

                          You try explaining that to a used car salesman! :)

                        • viking gal says:

                          Or getting a used car salesman to listen…
                          I still remember sitting in a Tercel, realizing I didn’t fit, telling the salesman that, and he STILL wanted me to do a test drive?!?!?

                        • froofrou the fierce says:

                          My 5’10″ 350lb brother drove a Ford Festiva for a while……he used to put his bicycle on the roof and double the overall size of the car. I’m still not sure how he fit.

                        • oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

                          My old boss is about 6’5″ and Oh… A good 300lbs I would say. Drives a Corvette. I can’t figure out how he gets out of the damn thing it’s so low to the ground.

                        • mabsba says:

                          lol. During that same period of car shopping, we went to a dealer that had several used Jeeps. The salesman REFUSED to tell us how much one of them was. We left. :)

              • “He’s a wacky Republican trying to make it in Washington. She’s the only one who knows how to keep his craziness under control. Tune in to ABC’s TGIF for ‘Reele Steele’ this fall!!!!”

    • Aremis says:

      Obama has definitely pushed the race button more than once over the past four years on the national stage, and received some well deserved criticism at times. But the class level involved is usually quite a bit higher than Steele’s almost parodied delivery.

    • biff says:

      How is the view from up your own ass?

  2. Cracka Smacka says:

    When’s Michael Steele gonna pony up that birth certificate to prove he wasn’t born in Eraqistan?

  3. Ant says:

    Which one’s Michael Steele, or are they both the same person?

  4. oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

    No one cares what you think.

  5. viking gal says:

    no one cares what you think

  6. froofrou the fierce says:

    No one cares what you think.

  7. gmc360 says:

    Impressive in that this could render Bill Cosby speechless.

  8. oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

    LOL! cgray was moderated out!!!

    Fantastic!!

  9. Maxwell Silverhammer Beatlist Pope John Paul George Ringo the First says:

    I care… wait.. what happened?

  10. Default User says:

    *sniffles* But I didn’t even get to tell him…oh. Wait. That’s right. I don’t care what he thinks and now he’s gone so life is good.

  11. Ignatz says:

    This is waaaay too 80s. Cue the Cameo:

    Now all you sucker. D.J.?s
    Who think you?re fly
    There?s got to be a reason
    And we know the reason why.
    You try to put on those airs
    And act real cool
    But you got to realise
    That you’re acting like fools. ..

    WORD UP!

  12. envisible says:

    Michael Steele is hilarious.

  13. Ringo's Tar says:

    I want to join the Republican Party now because I really identify with Michael Steele. He’s hip to my generation and everything he says is so smart and fly. I make 10k a year and I trust him to make decisions that would benefit me because he’s “the gift that keeps on giving” and he ‘empathizes on my behind.’ I truly believe the Republican Party cares about poor people and minorities because they made this cool guy their chairman.

  14. Justacarolinian says:

    Except a self righteous boob that thinks everyone on the Republican side of the isle is a saint. When history and common sense prove that they aren’t.
    Ever read that part of the Bible about exalting yourself? You are. And you bring a shame and mockery to the Gospel with your rants.

  15. Default User says:

    I think Ioanes, who doesn’t even have the balls to come back after his post and respond to our criticism is the new cgray.

    No one cares what you think.

  16. viking gal says:

    The other day upon the stair,
    I met a troll who wasn’t there.
    He wasn’t there again today.
    I wish that troll would go away!

  17. Danbala says:

    Do new posts end up before or after?

  18. I’m glad the admins are taking a more proactive stance on moderating out the nastier trolls. The milder ones are fine, but the truly offensive ones have to go. Thank you! And thank you to whoever e-mailed the admins about Ioannes.

  19. Dina says:

    Ohhh Michael Steele. The words “trying too hard” come to mind.

  20. ProudAmerican says:

    Gangster: You’re spelling it wrong.
    FAILED HARD

  21. Danbala says:

    Hah! With weight fitted nipple clamps?

    Nah, they’re two crying eyes, as a reward for the singular boohoo-ness of the first post. :)

  22. Kn0wledge1ne...da Facebook GANGSTA!!! says:

    YEAH he’s doin it wrong!

    Only me, the one TRUE GANGTA of PK can do it right!! :D

    I just got some great news guys! My mother just got an update from Haiti, and my family is OK and accounted for!! Thank you for all your support and encouragement!

    I may piss off a few of my non-religious counter parts here, but God is good all the time and all the time God is good.

    There is still a devastation over there and I still plan to go help if time & finances allow. I have some members of my church who lost family members in the earthquake. So keep them in your thoughts. Peace & love ya’ll.

    Request me on Facebook

  23. mabsba says:

    So very very happy for you! Thanks for the update.

  24. dissimilitude says:

    Seconded! I know that’s a huge relief to hear from them.

  25. Danbala says:

    Oh, good! Fecking awesome for you, I bet.

    (And the kind of non-religious anything-part who’d be offended by someone giving that sort of statement of personal faith in a situation like this only because it’s religious, aren’t worth listening to. :p )

  26. dissimilitude says:

    And your link’s not working right for some reason, it’s just taking me to my FB home page.

  27. Default User says:

    Yay! Glad to hear your family is safe and accounted for.

  28. HelOnWheels the Gene Pool Lifeguard says:

    Yay for your good news.

  29. Justacarolinian says:

    Prayers for your friends who lost.

  30. oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

    *hugs*

  31. Mina says:

    Glad your family is ok! Will keep your friends’ families in my prayers.

  32. That IS a relief. I was watching a report on TV about it today, and it made me think of you and your family. Glad they’re okay. Still very sad for those who aren’t. :(

  33. creaturefeature the biscuit baker says:

    Love, hugs & best wishes, Kn0wledge1ne.

  34. justacanuck the booty wench says:

    Excellent news, knowledge! I’m thrilled for you.

  35. PortlandMark says:

    I’m very happy for your win! I hope your family’s circle of friends comes out as good.

  36. bitter wino says:

    Does that mean that you are a sock for Kn0wledge1ne- you, gangsta you ;)

    Seriously good news though for k1ne

  37. Kn0wledge1ne...da Facebook GANGSTA!!! says:

    @diss

    Well that sucks. I thought I was good at linking now. It takes me to my page directly. Just search for me then.

    -Bethenokel Volcy-

  38. Kn0wledge1ne...da Facebook GANGSTA!!! says:

    @JAC

    Thanks man. It’s pretty rough for them right now, so my relief is bitter sweet.

  39. mabsba says:

    FYI, I believe it takes each person to his/her own Facebook page. Some websites are like that — if you make a link to them, anyone who tries it gets their own page if they have one and the main page if they don’t.

    Maybe one of the smart IT people knows how to counter this; I don’t. I only know because I had the same problem with another website. :)

  40. dissimilitude says:

    Well, you were easy enough to find by name! There’s not 375 of you, like there is for a lot of name combos. :-)

  41. Jane St.Clair Glamorous First Lady of PK says:

    *seconds Charro’s hugs*

  42. Kn0wledge1ne...da Facebook GANGSTA!!! says:

    What’s the name of that PK group again?

  43. Maxwell Silverhammer Beatlist Pope John Paul George Ringo the First says:

    OK Irregulars 2.0
    God I need to make a damn facebook page…

  44. Default User says:

    Ok Irregulars? We’re just ok? I thought we were awesome!

  45. oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

    No, no. He means we’re all from OK. Oklahomo.

  46. Default User says:

    But…I’m not from Oklahoma…does mean I have to leave the group?

  47. oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

    OklahoMO. Sheesh.

  48. froofrou the fierce says:

    Yes you do, Max, yes you do.

  49. Maxwell Silverhammer Beatlist Pope John Paul George Ringo the First says:

    Son of a! Be quiet DU! I was busy and the phone started to ring! It’s a typo I say! A typo!

  50. Default User says:

    I won’t harass you about your typos once you make a face book page and …join us join us join us join us…

  51. froofrou the fierce says:

    One of us, one of us, one of us, one of us….

  52. Maxwell Silverhammer Beatlist Pope John Paul George Ringo the First says:

    Ok well I’m off work tomorrow, I normally don’t do anything on my days off but I guess I will at least start a FB page…
    Don’t expect pics right away, I’ll have to find them… that means hooking up and searching through 4 respective hard drives.

  53. Default User says:

    …So that pic in your gravatar isn’t really you? But all the rest of us have been using real pictures of us! That is actually me hiding in a shrubbery! Froo really is a fairy and Upside down Charro is actually a mermaid. Oh, and HOW is actually the symbol for communism composed of food.

  54. Maxwell Silverhammer Beatlist Pope John Paul George Ringo the First says:

    My ego would like to say yes…. that is a picture of me, because I am The Doctor.
    But no I haven’t been skinny enough to be David Tennant since college.

  55. justacanuck the booty wench says:

    Um, guys, have I been on here long enough to come play with you on Facebook? *makes puppy dog eyes at everyone*

  56. shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

    canuck… i kinda wondered why you weren’t with us already!?

  57. justacanuck the booty wench says:

    @shorty: I’ve never been asked *sniff sniff*

  58. shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

    we not exactly invitation only… as long as you’re not a troll (BT excluded) you can join. you have to request to join though. because we talk about personal stuff we dont’ have it as an open group.

    look us up: PK Irregulars 2.0

    join us!

  59. justacanuck the booty wench says:

    Okay, I’ll look you guys up over lunch.

  60. Default User says:

    Well, it is invitation only, but you are allowed to write your own invitation. Just make sure to spell everything right. For some reason Kn0w’s invitation was for the “OK Irregulars 2.0″ *looks pointedly at Max*

  61. viking gal says:

    *thirds Charro’s hugs*

  62. justacanuck the booty wench says:

    *fourths the hugs and gets some groping in* What?! I am the booty wench after all!

  63. Justacarolinian says:

    We’ve had some local missionaries send video over the internet, and it looks nasty down there. It sounds like there is a ton of help on the way, but people need to hang on for another day or so.

  64. mabsba says:

    I believe that you can’t nest below comments that were nested below moderated comments. That I figured out. I’m still puzzled by their nesting algorithm, though.

  65. Danbala says:

    It’s most peculiar!

  66. viking gal says:

    Maybe if you can figure out the twisted nesting logic, you can write it up for a journal? :p

  67. mabsba says:

    “Analysis of mucking up nesting via moderation on lolsites”
    Think there’s any research money there?

  68. Danbala says:

    New posts show up before the posts that were responding to the moderated post. I suspect it turns into some null post and the time stamp sorter can’t handle that.

  69. viking gal says:

    Maybe the cheezburger folk would give you a grant? Of course teh grant wud be in lol-burgers, and u mite haf to phil out the furm in lolspeak.
    (my brain hurts now!)

  70. Danbala says:

    The sensible solution would be to replace moderated posts with a place holder saying “This post has been moderated away, away.” instead of removing it totally. It’d make more sense from us users’ points of view, at least.

  71. mabsba says:

    Silly, sensible Swede!

  72. viking gal says:

    But then we wouldn’t have the fun of commenting on the resulting dis-logic of the nesting…which adds the number of posts for the advertisers! Sin! Sin!

  73. viking gal says:

    Must be a Scandi trait. I keep doing buzz-kill logic, myself!

  74. Danbala says:

    They could just pay Lllll. to start posting here 24/7.

  75. viking gal says:

    :lol: That would be too logical for Llll to carry out, I think!

  76. Default User says:

    But that would cost actual money. This is free.
