Expelliarmus!
(Vladimir Putin)
Only the cool kids can do that!
Picture by: dunno source Caption by: dunno source via Our LOL Builder
No.
This caption is a whole lot of no, just no.
Well, it’s Vladerday. They had to put SOMEthing up…
Hey! Something you and I agree on.
Uh oh. Justa and Ivan agreed? Where are the other 3 horsemen?!?!?!?!!!!elebenty!!!
*yawn* This is the best Putin caption they could find? And to Harry Potter geek out for a second, it would have been at least slightly better if Putin was doing the more fitting “avada kedavra.” /potter geek
“Crucio” seems like it would be more Vladdy to me.
Oh yes. Torture them first. Good call. (I’m such a geek. LOL)
your in good company
Truly! *high fives all the geeks here*
-joins the high five fest-
I was thinking Avada Kedavera too,but good choice with the Crucio Sesoron =D
That’s okay, I’m one too.
I was going to mention Avada Kedavra but Sesoron has us beat I think.
Yes, this.
No wonder I don’t get it. Never seen/watched Harry Potter.
TL:DR!
Teal deer?! Where?!
No, it’s a tall doctor! Dr. J maybe!
Dr Pepper?
Doctor Who!!
Doctor Whoo-oo-oo, hey! Doctor Who. Doctor Whoo-oo-oo, hey! Doctor Who. Doctor Whoo-oo-oo, hey! Doctor Who, Doctor Whoo-oo-ooooo, Doctor Who.
Doctor My Eyes!
You are the biggest group of ADHD people I have ever seen.
Well, I loled
I giggled.
If loled quite a bit.
*wears HP Geek shoes*
But, but, but look how SHORT his wand is. What a disappointment.
*snerk*
Now THAT would have been a good caption!
Nothing about Vlad is small, guys.
Remember, the wand chooses the wielder.
Oh and Happy Vladerday everybody. Maybe I’ll stay in my slippers all day and just read a good book. (Drat, I am out of dog food. Can I go to the store in my slippers?)
Depends–is the ground dry? If so, go for it!
Ooooooooo…good thing you’re not a mom. We’d have to take away your mom card.
I go to the store in my slippers all the time.
Ah, but you’re not a mom either. You have to “set an example” when you’re a parent. Of course, example of WHAT is not specified in the rule book….
I don’t see what’s so bad about going to the store in ones’ slippers..?
The problem is being seen by a total hunk when I am looking like a frump. Happens every time the hunks are out. If I’m looking great the store is empty.
Well, get nice and dressed up, but wear the slippers. I doubt he’ll look at your feet.
If he doesn’t think you’re sexy in your slippers then he’s not worth knowing!
^ This
My future hubby loves my pink VS slippers…. but I usually wear it with my matching robe and teddy… that might have something to do with it
Well, you probably want a fellow dog lover and wouldn’t a fellow dog lover be impressed that you ran to the store, heedless of your appearance, to get your poor doggie some food?
We are all products of our upbringing. My mom was very strict about if you went outside, you either have shoes or are barefoot (of course, you could not GO anywhere barefoot). As an adult, I see that the shoe thing was about preserving socks; the barefoot thing probably had to do both with appearances and also with health, Mom having worked in an ER as a student nurse and dealt with people who cut their feet open.
But the idea also makes me flash on those pictures of ‘shoppers of Walmart’ — awful lot of those people seem to be in slippers, lol.
And if you are ‘looking,’ as Clueless seems to be, Murphy’s Law will apply and the very cute guy who didn’t notice you the last ten times you were at the store WILL notice you now.
Not personally a big motivator for me, of course.
It starts with the slippers, then next thing you know you’re going to target in your bedazzled jean jacket and leopard print thong.
I think that’s a Walmart outfit.
Actually going to Walmart is the final step in the transformation process from human to person of Walmart.
*comes home from shopping at Target in her bedazzled jean jacket and leopard print thong*
Whut?
Okay, I just had a mental image of Charro at Target in NOTHING but the bedazzled jean jacket and leopard print thong…strangely enough, she was wearing metallic stilettos instead of her slippers.
And she looked MAH-velous!
I don’t know how she got the stilettos on over the tailfins, though.
Must have been her human alter ego — no fins.
On land I have gams.
Incidentally, we have a song about shopping at Target.
To the tune of Front 242′s “Headhunter”
One you shop at Target
Two you go to the Line*
Thre you slowly surf the net
And four you catch the egg (you catch the egg!)**
*You have to have gone to The FineLine to properly understand this.
**You have to watch the above linked video to get this.
Blasted typos. THREE!!
And how many lights are there?
THERE. ARE. FOUR. LIGHTS!!!!
*starts humming the Jean Luc Picard song*
PS Don’t think I’m saying that I get all dressed nice every time I go to the store. I live within walking distance of several stores, so I often arrive looking less than perfect.
Some things are just very hard wired for each of us.
I guess I made out that my mother is a tomboy. Her attitude has always been 1) safe (from the cold, for example), 2) comfy, 3) looking decent. OK, there are photos of the two of us dressed for Easter with the dreaded white gloves, but that was more the exception which proved the rule!
My mom was very much the ‘why not let the children get dirty because you can always hose them off before letting them inside’ school. Most of her rules were based on practicality — if you went out without shoes, but with socks, you ruined the socks.
But slippers at the store still reminds me of the ‘shoppers at Walmart,’ sorry.
Not to mention dragging in dirt on those socks!
Yes. She was very practical. Probably had something to do with having five kids in six years.
*crosses her legs and winces*
My sister lives in Midland TX and when she first moved there, she was stunned to see that people did their hair and wore makeup to the grocery store. Plus, big sweaters.
should be saying “avada kadavra”
*kedavra
…As was pointed out above. At least twice.
I really thought that this should be saying: Spoon!!!
Is this something I would have to watch/read Harry Potter to understand? Or is it just a bizarre reference to The Matrix?
It’s a Tick reference actually. I hope no one tells The Tick that there is no spoon. He would be sad.
I see. Thanks.
Psst. I have seen all the Harry Potter movies and still don’t get all the references.
SPOON!!! – clicky
This was show very important to my development.
I think my favourite part of Vladurday is the adverts for the hot Russian brides.
I use Firefox with Adblock, so I don’t see those. In my defense, I had to do something about Sarah Palin’s grinning face on all the political lols.
PS Why is your spelling British?
*feigns indignation* Why is your spelling American?!
Um, because I’m American? I was just wondering if you have a British (or Australian or Canadian or any place except American) dictionary plug-in because I get errors when I put the extra “u” in words. Also, your punctuation is British, too. Just idle curiosity….
No, I get the little red line of death too. I just choose to ignore it.
Ah. Just wondering. I mean, since you punctuate British style also, I thought maybe you had a plug-in.
Maybe I’m just a European at heart.
You can right click the British word when it has the evil red squiggly of doom and there is an option in the menu to add the word to your dictionary. Firefox kept telling me Charro and Mabs were misspelled. I politely informed it that it was mistaken.
*headdesk* I should have known that. I was just teaching someone that in Word. Also how to add to the type-ahead menu. I learned the latter when typing my son’s fifth grade report on the Northern Hairy-nosed Wombat…that was a lot of motivation.
Good for you DU. It certainly was mistaken.
Also, I find ignoring it goes much better with my lazy-procrastination side.
Stop wasting yor u’s! We need to conserve owr u’s! They’re not a renewable resorce!
Um.
He’s right, you know. I save all mine and sell them to the Canadians.
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh…..
I always knew you’d support the big u industry.
I have solar panels that generate more u’s than I can use. Wait, how do you use u’s? If you say that out loud it sounds funny.
*tries and fails to think of anything witty to say about U-values…*
In Soviet Russia u’s use you!
Say THAT 5 times fast!
THATTHATTHATTHATTHAT.
Machine guns! DUck!
And we appreciate it, Mabs! We louve our u’s up here. (sorry, had tou pout the apoustrouphe in, outherwise it said we louve our us……)
I said stop that! *works on renewable substitute for the letter u*
Sumday Rando, I’m sure you uuil find the ansuuer you seek.
I once tried omitting the letter y from everyithing I tieped. It was going well until I needed to spell ‘your’. Mai brain just couldn’t tolerate using ur and I couldn’t think of anee alternate spellings.
Jour! It’s spanish!
It’s not an extra ‘u’. It’s Americans being too lazy to put it there in the first place. Colour, not color. Incidentlly, Foorball is played with your feet. Not your hands while wearing body armor.
Incidently, before you backlash with something, consider that I am American as well. (albiet, with an English schooling, a Greek diet, and an internet upbringing.)
Don’t be daft. Your spelling is too good to have an internet upbringing.
Strangely, I have been getting alot of comments like yours lately. Is the miss-spelling on the internet getting worse? o.0
Incidently, in regard to my *good* spelling, I invite you to look at the second line of my previous comment.
foorball?
I noticed that just as I posted it. I’m suprised (and worried) that noone has noticed it yet. My internet upbringing gave me okay spelling because I learned by watching the mistakes of others. However, the bad cases of misspelling are often just because the person is in a hurry. I do a check over of my comment. But if I didn’t, I would be worse than a troll.
Incidently, no one has noticed my incredible use and re-use of ‘Incidently’ in all my comments. FURTHER CAUSE FOR ALARM!
Actually, I had noticed, I just hadn’t said anything.
“Incidentally”
Incidentlly and incidently should both be “incidentally”. *
“Foorball” should be “football”. *
“albiet” should be “Albeit”.
“alot” should be “a lot”.
“miss-spelling” ought to be “misspelling” **
“suprised” should be “surprised”.
“noone” should be “no one”.
… No cause for alarm, most of us just can’t be bothered pointing out typos most of the time.
*) (Yes, I noticed that you noticed that.)
**) Unless there is some particular kind of spelling which is reserved for misses?
And besides, if one does point out all misspellings and typos one sees, there is precious little left of the conversation.
I didn’t say your spelling was perfect, just to good for an internet upbringing. You didn’t use u in place of you, good isn’t spelled gud, you managed to put double letters in most, if not all the appropriate places, and you didn’t substitute any numbers for letters, foorball I assume is a typo, therefore not a spelling error but a proofreading error.
Why would Peter Noone noticed your post?
Okay, we’ll consider that you are an American, but apparently are unaware that American English =/= British English yet have grasped the stereotype of Americans being lazy. I am less impressed with English ‘schooling’ now.
By “American English =/= British English” I assume you mean that American is pretty much the same as British? Very true. I retract my previous statement, and put forward that the guy/gal/guys/gals who started writing when they settled America were linguistically lazy. Or maybe it was the ‘u’ shortage, as mentioned above. I lean toward the first option, because it fits with my theory that the first settlers were either brave, crazy, or looking for a free ticket to wealth.
Brave: COWBOYZ!!!!
Crazy: Salem witch trials. That whole story is seriously (excuse my Inuit-ese) F*CKING BATSH1T CRAZY!
Greedy: Chinese Gold farmers.
“By “American English =/= British English” I assume you mean that American is pretty much the same as British?”
Not quite, =/= is usually read as “not equal to”.
Thank you, Danbala. Every post this person makes decreases my opinion of ‘English schooling.
Have you tried reading anything written in the 16 or 17 hundreds? There was no standard spelling at the time. The same person might spell one word three or four different ways in a single work. Spelling was standardized around the 19th century when people started writing dictionaries, but the Americans decided not to use the u in alot of words. The Chinese gold farmers didn’t start coming over until after the language had been standardized, also they weren’t the original gold farmers, that would be the English and Spanish. Also, most cowboys were of Indian decent. Native American Indian, not Hindu Indian.
PS A lot of the standardization of American English came with typesetting, and the typesetters, given a choice, usually used the shortest version of any word.
This is why, for example, we also tend not to use terminal commas in lists. So it’s dog, cat and bird here rather than dog, cat, and bird. Much of this was codified in what journalists used to call the “AP Bible.” I don’t know if they still do or not. (AP = Associated Press)
Hmmm, I always use dog, cat, and bird. I didn’t know that was wrong according to AP. It just always made more sense to me that way.
I didn’t know it was wrong to use the oxford comma for any press manual. I use it artistically – when I feel like it helps with the flow of the sentence.
It’s not about being ‘wrong.’ AP adopted the standards that minimized the amount of text used (hence decreased typesetting time and increased amount one can fit on a page). Most newspapers followed for the same reasons, hence it became the newspaper standard, which heavily influenced other uses. It doesn’t make the alternatives wrong, just not as common.
These reasons are now archaic, which is why I said I didn’t know if the AP standards were still used. I learned all this from friends in journalism in the late ’80s.
I believe Wino’s description of when to use the terminal comma is the best guidance for writing. After all, you should aspire to a higher standard than most newspapers, which are usually geared to an 8th grade reading level.
When I was in school, we used the AP stylebook exclusively, so I’d say yes. There are other stylebooks, but none are as widely used as AP’s.
Serious American history fail: the first Chinese were brought here to work on the railroads and were little better than slaves. They were not major participants in the gold rush.
And, yes, most of us noticed your MANY grammatical and spelling errors, but, as Danbala said, it’s usually a waste of time to point them out unless they create opportunities for humor…or humour.
I all honesty though, I rather enjoy most of the way Brits (and the rest of Europe) spell (English) their words.
Plus I figure if I plan on living in Germany someday I should learn to properly spell English words.
I prefer the British spelling of behaviour. But I’m not sure if it is worth the battle with the system.
DU reminded us that if you right click on the word, you can add it to your dictionary.
I do that all the time for medical terminology, so I confess to getting tired of it. And why can’t the college be bothered to 1) get the proper add ons for the dictionary, or 2)roll over our additions when they update our software? *sighs*
The joys of university bureaucracy…not. *hugs* If wonder if anyone ever calculated the time the college loses with each person having to update their own rather than having some smart kid program the system to do the rollover?
*hugs back*
And the joys of the small but growing college. When we FINALLY got computers on our desks (1998, if I recall correctly), the admin had theirs all properly set up for them. The faculty got a stack of boxes in their office, and 6 months later a workshop on how to use MS word and the records program.

But I’m not bitter, that is Bitter Troll’s job!
Where is biter troll anyway?
Er.. I mean bitter troll. Biter Troll is his brother with whom I am not allowed to tryst. His sister is Butter Troll. She’s pretty scary.
I don’t know. It sounded before like BT was having IRL issues. Hopefully everything is okay.
I approve. Keep up the good work!
Awww thanks keithy.
If you’re planning on living in Germany someday, you should probably learn to spell German words correctly instead.
I’m working on that.. I need to figure out how to make the ß thingy on my laptop first.
That is pretty handy. Nothing says n00b to the Germans like writing “ss” instead of the ß.
Lord knowß I can’t have the Germanß thinking I’m a n00b.
I reckon if we’re going to make any meaningful contribution to our membership of the EU, it will be to get all those continental johnnies speaking English. The Germans, bless their little cotton socks, are making good progress.
Especially if you say you’re from Canadia.
And here I thought I would have to wait to find my russian beauty when the ad to the right is telling me I can find her TODAY! Oh lucky day!
I’ve got a buy one get one free coupon for them. Want in on it?
So… My forced wife… will have a forced wife? I’m beginning to wonder how this will look on my 1040…
You can no longer use for 1040E-Z. You must now use form 1246.65683235HRD. If you add one more wife you will then need to use form 52356.65356¾ ÷ 0 IMPOSBLE.
hokus pokus – you’re a satellite state!
He look jaundiced. I have to say it, not one of his best photos.
well i read the books and putin would be saying adva kadava
Thrice!
nope everyone know putin has the odin and the knights of the round materia
Now your just mixing your nerddoms and that’s just silly.
Do what now?
I have no idea what he’s talking about or how it refers to “thrice.”
Ok, I thought it was another Harry Potter reference that I’d missed due to my woeful ignorance on that topic.
The Materia stuff is a reference to Final Fantasy. I don’t know why Charro said thrice. Though it does make me want to start quoting Macbeth…however, if I start I won’t stop until I’ve done the whole scene…
Oh, never mind, I figured out why she said thrice.
4* KOTR in a linked slot with MP absorb, 4* Bahamut Zero with HP absorb, Final Attack with a 4* Phoenix, 4* Mime and a 4* Magic Up I think you’ll find.
Really? One KOTR is all you need. That’s the end right there. The last boss fight was a huge let down because of that actually.
4* meaning 4 stars on the orb, not 4 orbs.
And I’ve just realised that I missed the 4* “double summon” materia and the Edincoat. Of course, all this on one guy is overkill unless you’re after Ruby Weapon and Emerald Weapon. In which case you also need the Underwater materia.
So to kill Emmy you use Double Summon to cast KOTR and B0 in round 1, characters 2 and 3 pass until you get back to character 1 who Mimes. Rinse and repeat until you’re Aire Tan Stormed, when Final Attack casts Phoenix to resurrect the party, then DS KOTR+B0…
You should finiish with loads of XP, and a truckload of freshly mastered spell and support orbs to sell.
I got 4*s, but you really don’t need the rest of that, the one KOTR will suffice. Everything else is just overkill.
This must be from the next film, ’cause I don’t remember Dobby ever using a wand.
Are you kidding? Putin makes Voldemort pee himself.
As I write, Vlad had had 109 replies V OJS 44. Would I be accurate in claiming Vlad is 109/44 times more popular than OJ? If that is correct, it just doesn’t make any sense to me.
Me neither.
Smurf, I think you may be spending to much time with Lllll, you’re starting to talk to yourself.
DA, haven’t you ever noticed? There is always two of each of us… as in “…And I said to myself…” Besides, I am the only one I can get any sense out of these days. Whose fault is that?
Oh hell Smurf, you put DA instead of DU. Oh well, DA probably won’t notice. Now, DU, wtf is LIIII? Is that code for Lil Wayne?
Not DU (or DA), but I can tell you that’s a whacko troll who talks to herself.
PS Now they do have drugs to make that second person in your head be quiet. Just FYI.
Thank Zeus! Help has arrived in the most unlikely form of Mabsba. Peace Be Upon You Mab… Now, what drugs have you been using for this atrocious malady of talking to yourself?
Um, I don’t actually have that problem, but my schizophrenic friend takes lithium, I believe. You do need a prescription, however.
You are too kind. I will see Doctor Phil tomorrow.
Gee, I just remembered this horror move and this psycho, schizo maniac had this gun and he… Ah, just trying to help mab… does your friend have a gun?
Well, if you hadn’t said anything I’d have just assumed you were German and agreeing with me.
Warum würde ein Deutscher mit Ihnen einverstanden sein? I’ m nicht und ich sind immer mit Ihnen anderer Meinung, blind!
more like: Exterminatus!
BLAM!…..
Bad Dobby! Stole wizards wand! Bad, bad, bad!! He needs to punish himself!
And I was hoping for a good (read: funny) Vladurday for my birthday
I think most were disappointed with the lack of humor. But happy birthday, anyway.
Incidentally, there are British and Canadian spelling ad-ons for Firefox. I like how I’m able to get the north-of-the-border maple flavour with it.
Secondly, why does Putin look like an oompa-lommpa? That’s the important question.
I uploaded this, kicking myself for uploading as anonymous. My first post up, WOOP!
OH NOES!!!! Its Lord Vladimort!!!!!!
