Award!

Posted by Harvey on May 1, 2009 at 9:12 am

Granny Boo of has honored IMAO with the “Putting the EXTREME in Right-Wing Extremists – an Award From the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy” Award.

Now, the official report says that there are 2 kinds of right-wing extremists: those that hate minorities, and those that hate the government.

I like to think that we at IMAO are a third type: extremists of love.

We love punching hippies.

And as Barry Goldwater once said, “extremism in the defense of punching hippies is no vice”.


FINE PRINT:

To join the exclusive club of blogs who honor IMAO and have your award featured on our sidebar with a link to your blog, make up a fancy award image honoring IMAO, blog about it, and drop a link in the comments.

Keep it PG-13, and if it doesn’t suck too terribly bad, your award will be duly noted in a post (Current estimated wait time – 4 Award posts), and placed in the sidebar with a link to your site.

As added incentive for people to honor IMAO with worthless, made-up awards, those who do so may proudly display this worthless, made-up Participant Ribbon:

If you don’t have a blog, then send your image to harvolson-at-gmail.com and include a link to one of your favorite IMAO posts.

For the Photoshop-impaired, here’s a guide to making mediocre fake pictures with Microsoft Paint

Or try the free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Maximum sidebar image width is 190 pixels. Please make sure text is at least barely legible at that size.

Now get honoring!

    there is nothing better than a good vast right wing conspiracy…… I too love punching hippies I also like to kick them, runover them, stomp on there stupid heads, hit them with baseball bats so forth and so on.

    Granny proves that old people can still do good work. Granny, did you consider adding Barry Goldwater’s face to your montage?

    Granny has good taste in firearms; I recognized that pistola immediately as the Taurus Judge, uses the .45 long Colt cartridge AND a .410 shotshell. NiiiIIIiiiiice! Makes a cool bang, and with the .410, a sizable hole(s).

    Go Granny!

    IH8Socialist,

    Question, Re: hippies:

    If you put a hippie’s head under water is it considered waterboarding, or just the first step in trying to get them a job (to be followed by a shave, haircut and change of clothes, of course)?

    Nice award!

  7. Granny Boo says:

    Thanks, kids. (Although I’m not really decrepit yet, just middle-aged.)

    Yes, I considered AuH2O but he went all squishy about some stuff toward the end, so I left him off. Plus, I had already devoted waaaayyyy too much of my time to Fireworks MX and a “worthless, made-up award” to include all of the bright lights of conservatism (Russell Kirk was really my next choice).

    Yes, the Judge is the newest object of my affections. They are scarce as hen’s teeth, especially in the configuration I want (pictured). Everyone I talk to who owns or has fired one gets the silliest grin on and just says “whoa.”

    It’s not waterboarding it’s the first step of re-eduction to make said hippies into normal conservative thinking productive members of the USA. Step one may have to be done more than once some studies show step one must be repeated up to 200 hundered times before it produces results.

  9. Son of Bob says:

    IH8Socialist,
    Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn’t sure. I will now get back to work waterboarding hippies with a clear conscience.

  10. GrannyBoo's black sheep sissy says:

    I love Granny Boo and and I am proud of her award.

    I love your gun, Granny, and thanks for sharing the bedroom.

    There are no camps, and Americans are better than torture, remember what Nuremburg was about?

    I’M A HIPPIE, BOO!

  11. Jimmy says:

    Oh, well Granny, then my apologies. I thought you were old, old, old, like me. We old people gotta stick up for ourselves. (PS: I’m 29. ;-) )

  12. Freemon SandleWould says:

    Honest to god hippies and not want to be hippies are honest to god dope smoking conservative libertarians.

    That’s right ….there ….. I said it …. HEMP EVERYTHING and vote republican when you must and libertarian when you can.

  13. Mgbfred says:

    Yep, Whoa is pretty close. Mine is an “Ultra-Lite” model, aluminum frame. Fires 2-1/2″ .410ga or .45colt. 4″bbl,and I found .410 shells(“0000″ buck”) that has 3- pellets per round each at .372 caliber. That is roughly, 3-.36 caliber rounds fired WITH EACH SHOT!
    That is one mighty fine award, and a darn nice weapon too!
