Laura said...: Every time I see that Kim Jong I think about the movie "Team America, World Police".
I just can't help it!

I like how when everyone else wears somber and sophisticated black he goes for his predictable beige jump suit.
Lovely. :)

That's the saddest birthday party picture I ever did see. They need a clown making balloon hats, that would be awesome!

Tom Harper said...: Oh My God, that's a picture of our traitorous ex-president, negotiating with a terrorist! Now the commies will see how weak our country is and they'll bury us!; August 5, 2009 at 2:56 PM
Randal Graves said...: holte, good job. Now North Korea is going to nuke your house.

sunshine, Kim is merely ahead of the fashion curve, a true trailblazer.

tengrain, I'm not sure if even that would help. You ever have North Korean cake?

TF, he looks like a Kewpie doll.

tom, bah, they don't make enemies like they used to. Can you really picture Kim banging his shoe on a desk?; August 5, 2009 at 3:13 PM
Christopher said...: This image has inspired me to write a blog piece that will go something along the lines of:

"Did Obama Ask the Wrong Clinton to be Secretary of State?"; August 5, 2009 at 3:17 PM
Commander Zaius said...: I predict that Kim Jong's fashion style will overwhelm the world. Truth be told the little dude's greatest dream is to be on the cover of GQ.; August 5, 2009 at 4:38 PM
Utah Savage said...: Lil'Kim is a true fashion leader. And now Charming Billy gets another happy ending. We all like happy endings don't we?; August 5, 2009 at 4:49 PM
Anonymous said...: One could almost hear the vomit hitting the pails at Foxy Noise. Success by the Good guys is never a good thing at the gloom and doom team! Cudos to my boy Bill C.; August 5, 2009 at 4:50 PM

themom said...: Were these poeple told "if you touch anyone or smile - you will be nuked?" What a slimy little pipsqueak - that brownshirted one (lil kim) is!

Go Bill!; August 5, 2009 at 10:22 PM

Randal Graves said...: christopher, of course he didn't ask the wrong one. Hillary isn't that tall, so this photo would be far less comical.

BB, I wonder if there's a North Korean equivalent, Gulag Quarterly.

utah, of course we do, and the happiest ending would be him releasing his own rap album.

sherry, I think John Bolton's moustache just lost a few more hairs.

hill, agreed, but it's hard to gird one's loins and type at the same time.

themom, but now North Korea holds the upper hand. Bigger picture, people, bigger picture!

SWA, and he should agree to do them, expand his media empire. Who says bloodthirsty dictators can't be lovable?

übermilf, I feel a disaster flick coming on.

okjimm, like anyone would want a player from a team not named the Cavs.; August 6, 2009 at 10:16 AM
Ricky Shambles said...: Ha, ubermilf beat me to it; I've looked at that picture a dozen times and I guess fixated on the absolute minisculity of Kim juxtaposed with the masculinity of ball-swingin' Bill. But today I noticed that they were in the midst of certain death by the background.; August 6, 2009 at 11:18 AM
S.W. Anderson said...: I hear faint echoes of Charlie, who long ago refused to pay a fare increase on Boston's MTA. He rode forever 'neath the streets of Boston; he's the man who never returned.

There's a better approach. Maybe you, Randal, could buy a surplus bus somewhere and start your own better service for the people. You could be the Jet Blue of city bus lines, putting the existing one out of business.

Hey, you could even have first-class seating for those who pay more and bother with hygiene. They get intact upholstery, piped-in heavy-metal rock, trays of crepes de Alpo and mini cups of cafe au latex.

The riff-raff go to the back, where you spin them to with well-timed jackrabbit starts. Rear seating would be beneath a sprinkler system rigged to douse riders with a mist of Mitchum every few minutes.; August 6, 2009 at 5:43 PM
Dr. Zaius said...: Something should be done with that picture. It has ICanHazCheeseburger written all over it.; August 8, 2009 at 11:59 AM
Non Je Ne Regrette Rien said...: god I love the word pretzeldent. too bad you didn't coin it r.g. maybe you could stop with the bus already. :P; August 10, 2009 at 9:10 AM
