I Just Noticed...

Right?

It's Good to Be King

This image is for Casey. He has always wanted a philosopher king. And now in Bhutan they have a philosopher king who stops to smell the flowers in the middle of his coronation.

We already know that Casey has a crush on Bhutan's idea of Gross National Happiness. This image of King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck should have him teehee-ing like a little girl.

In the mercy of the world again

The Rickles Loophole

When Don Rickles was accused of being racist he would make the point that he makes fun of everybody. I'm all for comedy being offensive. But still it's one thing to make fun of a white couple for looking boring and another to make fun of a black couple for looking like criminals.

And for many people, comparing a black man to a monkey crosses all sorts of lines. But what if you're comparing both a black man and a white man to monkeys? And a woman to a pitbull-monkey?

TheSock Obama is relying on a strange type of equality. Eah whatever.

The real hypocrisy on the page is the warning: Beware of cheap imitators. Then the product images still sport that classy timestamp. They're professionals.

Dude, She Is So Into Me

You know these boys have had the exact same reaction to a stripper.








She is sooo HOT!

YES! She did the wink!

I think I'm going to break up with my cousin.
