lolterizt! Part 104
This week terrorists, next week That One. Submit for either at lolterizt@gmail.com
Meanwhile, pass ’em around, spread the love, and if you make your own, don’t be shy about dropping a link to your pics in the comments. The more, the merrier.
NOTE TO READERS: Hovering your mouse over the picture activates closed captioning for the l33t-speak/txtmsg impaired.

From Me (Harvey):
This week’s uncaptioned picture for you to play with:
I’m thinking there’s a Bill Engvall joke in there somewhere…
PRODUCTION NOTES:
#1: When creating lolterizt! pictures, please caption with either black or white text, as colors like red and yellow tend to blur badly when I compress the images.
#2: Standard image size for these posts is 350px wide by whatever high. If you can have your images 350px wide before you caption them, I won’t end up shrinking your captions into illegibility when I re-size the images.
MAKE YOUR OWN: The free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.
STYLE NOTE: Short captions are usually better. Your goal is 10 words or less, with humor value tending to increase exponentially as the number of words approaches 1.
HAT TIP: Brian of Snapped Shot‘s magnificent EvilFeed – the world’s best source for ripe-for-captioning terrorist photos.
Send your submissions to lolterizt@gmail.com and – if they aren’t obscene (IMAO is a PG-13 site) and don’t suck too terribly bad – I’ll post them for you. Remember to include your name (and blog URL, if applicable) so I know who to thank.
“The State of the Union Is Super, Thanks for Asking!”
A Vanity Fair poll says that now half of Americans are okay with the idea of a gay president. I think a lot of the credit goes to Obama for easing us into the idea.
So would a gay president be one of those “sophisticated” things we’d have over Europe? Have any of them ever had an openly gay leader? I keep thinking they do, but it always ends up he’s just British.
Expiration Date
Jim Geraghty (Know what? I’m getting tire of looking up how to spell his name. Let’s come up with a nickname for him: “Googity”) has long said every statement from Obama comes with an expiration date, and he has a list of all the promises that have expired.
Scary thought: What are some other Obama statements that haven’t expired yet? Like didn’t he once assure us he wasn’t going to kill grandma? Has he ever joked about how his policies wouldn’t be the end of the world? And didn’t he once, apropos to nothing in the middle of reading a book to schoolkids, suddenly say, “By the way, I’m not going to sneak into your houses and slit your throats.”
As Googity says: “All Barack Obama statements come with an expiration date. All of them.”
Violent Harry Reid Supporters
So some Harry Reid supporters were throwing eggs and assaulting Andrew Breitbart, but before we feign outrage let’s just think about this for a second.
Harry Reid supporters.
Mull that phrase over. Think of Harry Reid. Now think of someone who likes and supports that.
You can’t. It just can’t be comprehended. My understanding is even most Democrats don’t support Harry Reid; they just kind of tolerate him. But someone who is actually excited by Harry Reid — that’s a grade A psycho right there. My advice for Breitbart is to avoid those people next time; who knows what they’re capable of.
Are Liberals Just Like Terrorists?
Once again, I be the contrarian and argue “no” in my latest Pajamas Media column.
Random Thoughts
I think what the public is going to be really desperate for after Obama is another really fat president like Taft.
So, yes, Chris Christie is my current front runner for the Republican presidential primary. You heard it here first.
People just got to get over the fact that the RNC Chairman is black.
Actually, I bet the press will call death threats to Cantor “right-wing” violence. It does involve a right-winger.
Eventually computers will write movies based on input of targeted demographics and previous financially successful movies. The results will be horribly cliché, but watchable and ultimately profitable.
Got the Word of Promise audio Bible. Zod/Jor El is the voice of God. Luke Perry is Judas.
So what now? The RNC isn’t going to reimburse my visit to a bondage-themed nightclub? Come on!
My wife made my fajitas for lunch with homemade guacamole. Yep, that t-shirt babe contest worked out well.
BREAKING: DNC will give Cantor threat suspect’s donations to charity. Specifically, a bondage-themed nightclub.
Every time GoogleMaps updates its satellite photos, Canada looks more and more threatening to me. No, YOU’RE paranoid!
I find it hard to evaluate the job Steele is doing when I never really paid attention to the RNC Chairman before.
The Marmaduke trailer makes we wonder if we need a law against depicting animals talking.
Chuck is just pure fun. If it’s canceled, I’ll become violently angry, though the media will probably blame it on me listening to Limbaugh.
Wife’s trying to guilt me into using my allowance towards baby stuff, but if I don’t get an iPad I’m going to be an abusive father.
Isn’t it a cool idea there is going to be someone with my genes who grows up with me educating him? He’ll be like a superhuman.
Is it a sign of my maturing that Ricky Martin coming out hasn’t sparked one humorous thought? Or am I just now dead inside?
Apparently, some countries don’t like America. Have we ever thought of putting suggestion boxes on our embassies to find out why?
Hurray for failure
I’m trying to understand some polls I read this week:
- Only 27% of Americans say the U.S. will remain the most powerful nation.
- 47% of likely voters approve (30% strongly approve + 17% approve) of Obama’s job performance.
I find that interesting. And disturbing.
Look at that again: Only 27% say we’re remain the most powerful nation, while 47% approve of Obama.
If all 27% are part of that 47%, then 20% of Americans recognize and are okay with the weakening of our country.
But, I don’t believe that all 27% are Obama supporters. I suspect most of them think we’ll remain strong despite Obama.
If none of those are Obama supporters, then 47% of Americans recognize and are okay with the weakening of our country.
At least 1/5 — and possibly almost 1/2 — of this country recognizes that Obama is weakening the nation … and are okay with that.
This is why I’m an angry conservative.
