Question of the Day
Posted by Frank J. at 05:10 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (43)

What sort of holiday should we use to celebrate the day of Arafat's death?

For one, we have to decide what day to celebrate it on. It can't be today (Veteran's Day) or yesterday (the Marines' birthday), but he probably actually died on Sunday, so we'll celebrate it that day. Here are some holiday suggestions for the anniversary of Arafat's death:

* Terrorist's Death Day - A day we celebrate the cool death of terrorists, such as the one who was in a wheelchair and got hit with a cruise missile. That was awesome!

* Brain Hemorrhage Appreciation Day (or whatever the hell it was that killed him)

* Ringo Starr Look-Alike Day

* Johnson's Baby Wipes Appreciation Day

Also, maybe we could start a charity to help the victims of Nobel Peace Prize winners. I know some people are still recovering from the Carter administration.

Well, those are my ideas. What do you think?

There are already to many holidays.

International Kill a Terrorist Day. celebrated each and every Nov 7th.

FIRST!

#2 - Posted by: cb1100rider on November 11, 2004 05:12 PM

damn, you beat me....

and I will agree, but just think of the Hallmark cards that celebrate Nov 7th!

Those little slide things that you move back and forth....

Have a picture of a random terrorist-like fella and on the slider have a MOAB so you can bomb him over and over for hours of personal enjoyment!

#3 - Posted by: on November 11, 2004 05:14 PM

Maybe we could mark his death each year by indiscriminately bombing a randomly selected country which is on our axis of evil list that year. They'd never know who would be selected, but they would know for sure we were going to bomb someone, so they'd be sure to stay on our good side. This is similar to some of your ideas Frank, so I think it could also give national recognition to your genius.

#4 - Posted by: humanoverlord on November 11, 2004 05:36 PM

I particularly like the idea of helping the victims of Nobel Peace Prize winners. There are a lot of Cuban dissidents who would appreciate it, from the prison cells they landed in when they heeded Carter's call to "dialogue" with Fidel.

#5 - Posted by: Stephen on November 11, 2004 05:45 PM

The MSM, Jimmy Carter, and Kofi Annan would want to have a biography done on evil terrorists and air it on CNN every year!

#6 - Posted by: PCK on November 11, 2004 05:46 PM

"Also, maybe we could start a charity to help the victims of Nobel Peace Prize winners."


Genius!

#7 - Posted by: Chim-Chim on November 11, 2004 05:50 PM

Well we do have a lot of holidays already, maybe we could replace one. How about labor day. We could blind fold a Nobel Peace prize winner, string him up like a pinata and let a Cuban, Israeli, Russian, N. Korean, or etc. Beat him with a baseball bat till something good came out. Might take along time though. In fact it might be quite a labor.

#8 - Posted by: toad on November 11, 2004 06:04 PM

I have been thinking about this Drunk Monkey, "Blame the Joos" pic all day. Digging through my photo archives, I stumbled upon him, this morning. "OMFG, it's Yassir! It's a friggin' sign from Allah!" IMO, The monkey bears a striking resemblence to Arafat, pork chop lip and all! He needs to be photoshopped! Anyone? I have the shop skills of a 2 year old.

Drunk Monkey, "Blame the Joos" should be included on our holiday. Look, he's already drinkin'!

#9 - Posted by: Princess Kimberley on November 11, 2004 06:11 PM

We already have a day to celebrate Arafat's death. It's called Thanksgiving.

#10 - Posted by: dave on November 11, 2004 06:31 PM

I agree with Dave. We should just use this day to buy a gun.

#11 - Posted by: Neo-con Samurai on November 11, 2004 06:37 PM

I think it was the Bush victory that sent Arafart into a downward death spiral, so I say we celebrate every four years by electing another Republican.

#12 - Posted by: Gullyborg on November 11, 2004 07:04 PM

Hug a Jew Day.

#13 - Posted by: jonag on November 11, 2004 07:04 PM

"maybe we could replace one. How about labor day."

Actually, I was thinking that we should get rid of labor day, which is just a stupid day made up by labor unions to get away with not working but still get paid, and turn September 11 into a solemn and serious national day of remembrance and mourning.

Then every summer, people would have that annual memorial, then the next weekday, start school. It would remind kids about what is important to learn in school, like math and science, for making things to kill terrorists. And it would hopefully keep the teachers from bringing up topics like how Bush is Hitler, at least for the first week of class.

And while we are on the subject of getting rid of outdated things in favor of relevant things, I want to get Andrew Jackson off the $20 and replace him with Ronald Reagan. The $20 is the primary unit of currency these days. Who is more fitting to be on it than the man who ushered in decades of economic prosperity through tax cuts?

Plus, it would really piss off liberals, especially when mom and day hand them their allowance money.

#14 - Posted by: Gullyborg on November 11, 2004 07:10 PM

Speaking of the terrorist who was in a wheelchair, you should all go read that IMW. It was one of the funniest ever.

#15 - Posted by: Ann on November 11, 2004 07:33 PM

National "Hey I Screwed All My Palestinian Brothers Out of 3 Billion Dollars and I Really DID Take It With Me HA!" day.

#16 - Posted by: Dave in Texas on November 11, 2004 08:01 PM

I am leaning toward humanoverlord's idea but with a slight twist. I think we should randomly kill/bomb/annihilate a terrorist organization in celebration of this annual holiday. I mean, Clinton fired off a bunch of cruise missiles and, more or less, blew up the local Eckerd store in the Sudan & the MSM didn't get mad at him for that. I think we should do the same thing, but actually blow up a worth while target.

#17 - Posted by: Crispy23 on November 11, 2004 09:03 PM

Maybe we could change the date for Arbor Day, which no one can ever remember anyway, and make it a real holiday by planting a terrorist every year.

#18 - Posted by: Waffle King on November 11, 2004 09:33 PM

I don't really give a rat's ass what you call this holiday or when you have it.

But here's one thing that's got to become tradition, if we're gonna do this right.

You have to make up a whole shitload of life size Yassir Arafat pinatas. Enough so that every family in America can buy one or two. Then little kids can take sticks and beat the shit out of Yasser until he gives up the candy. This will properly indoctrinate our kids as to the proper role of terrorists in the world. And the proper role of Americans now that I think about it.

After the kids go to bed, the adults can fire ordinance into what remains. Momma's probably gonna lose her best checkered tablecloth out of the deal, but it's a small price to pay.

#19 - Posted by: Sticky B on November 11, 2004 09:42 PM

How about we just dedicate one night of Hanukkah to celebrating?

Either that or we just hijack Kwanzaa altogether and call it "7 nights against terror".

#20 - Posted by: caltechgirl on November 11, 2004 09:50 PM

In response to Gullyborg, Reagan should be his own new currency, $25 bill. Andrew Jackson, while he was a Democrat, is hated by liberals for removing the Indians from Georgia into the plains states. We should not remove a figure to which th liberals hate.

#21 - Posted by: on November 11, 2004 10:26 PM

Here's a couple ideas:
Support Israel Day
or
Official Opening of Terrorist Hunting Season (permits can be obtained at any Marine/Army/Air Force/Navy recruitment office)

#22 - Posted by: Tex on November 11, 2004 10:41 PM

"International Kill a Terrorist Day. celebrated each and every Nov 7th."

That's a holiday I think we should keep all year long.

"maybe we could start a charity to help the victims of Nobel Peace Prize winners"

Brilliant idea! Somebody should research this and set up a website.

#23 - Posted by: Mark on November 11, 2004 10:45 PM

AIDS Appreciation Day

#24 - Posted by: Fluent Idiot on November 11, 2004 11:59 PM

I thought he looked more like Stevie Wonder in that pic

#25 - Posted by: SgtMgr on November 12, 2004 12:30 AM

I say we should definitely replace Labor Day. You know the unions just wanted to celebrate May Day, but knew they had to put it a few months later so their communist ties were not too obvious.

Although, without Labor Day weekend I would never know when hunting season (dove) started here.

This could be national "Burn a Blue Checkered Tablecloth Day (preferably one still attached to a terrorist)."

#26 - Posted by: twalsh on November 12, 2004 12:32 AM

Ha! They are planning on boycotting the stamp of Reagan coming out. I'd love to see them boycott carrying $20's.

#27 - Posted by: Troll on November 12, 2004 01:16 AM

Wait till victory is declared in Fallujah. Then declare it "Terrorist Murder Death Kill Day".

#28 - Posted by: Troll on November 12, 2004 01:20 AM

i like "happy dance day"

#29 - Posted by: moehawk on November 12, 2004 03:03 AM

"Be vewwy qwiet, I'm hunting tewwowists, ahahahaha!"

vewwy vewwy quiet

#31 - Posted by: on November 12, 2004 06:29 AM

How about Pistol Whip a Terrorist day?

In October we can Celebrate Pistol Whip a Commie Day.

#32 - Posted by: Robert_J on November 12, 2004 08:29 AM

The flags at the UN are at half mast. Maybe we should put our flags at half mast everyday that a terrorist doesn’t die, and raise them when they DO die.

#33 - Posted by: PCK on November 12, 2004 08:38 AM

Darn, I was hoping that they would have ripped the coffin and then the body apart (ala the Ayatollah), to claim a part oa a "holy" relic. If Arafat died from AIDS... *tee hee*... could you imagine??? Spread 'dem parts arounds!

#34 - Posted by: Princess Kimberley on November 12, 2004 09:04 AM

"Blow yourself up for Yassar Day".
We would celebrate by wearing tablecloths and encouraging terrorists to blow themselves up. (we would have to create special blowing up zones and invite other terroists to attend the occasion for "how to" classes)

#35 - Posted by: Reepiceep on November 12, 2004 09:23 AM

I think all the Liberals should be forced to celebrate by growing half a scraggly looking beard and wearing the same diaper on their head for 2 weeks, starting approximately one week before the sucker croaked and ending approx one week after.

Restaurants and other assorted consumer goods and services units would be required to charge these people double price during this time.

And hey, if your a conservative and you look like that, you can just pay double too.

#36 - Posted by: Cincinnati_Kid on November 12, 2004 09:29 AM

PS - I think we should all buy some of those special cartoon bullets and flood the middle east with them. You know, the ones that fly straight until they are about a foot and a half from the muzzle, then promptly stop and take an exit stage right, or left, or even backwards..

Mark the boxes "Super Duper Special Funeral Bullets"

#37 - Posted by: Cincinnati_Kid on November 12, 2004 09:34 AM

When counting the victims of the Nobel Peace Prize, don't forget the 14 Astronaughts who are dead as a result of Carter's blocking of a safe and truely reusable launch vehicle.

#38 - Posted by: Anony Mouse on November 12, 2004 10:05 AM

I like all of these ideas. I think they should all be enacted as the "Here's What We Think of Yasser Arafat in America Act".

"Official Opening of Terrorist Hunting Season (permits can be obtained at any Marine/Army/Air Force/Navy recruitment office)"

This is a separate great idea from the "here's what we think of yasser arafat in america act". We should implement this one by bringing the troops home now and running safaris in Iraq to make back the money we've spent already.

#39 - Posted by: Jim Nichols on November 12, 2004 12:54 PM

Did they give him a 21 son salute? Sounds like something theyshould do frequently there in the compound...

#40 - Posted by: mech on November 12, 2004 06:35 PM

First, if we're going to piss off Liberals, how about we help celebrate National Ammo Week?

And second, since they went and consolidated Lincoln and Washington's birthdays into President's day, how about we consolidate this with 9/11 and make THAT International Kill a Terrorist Day? (We could officially call it International Anti-Terrorism Day, but keep the REAL meaning here)

#41 - Posted by: WayneB on November 13, 2004 07:52 PM

"Maybe God isn't On Your Side Day"
