Since 9/11, you might’ve heard reports of a certain plan.
A plan to overthrow all of the Western nations & turn them into…
(wait for it)
(wait for it)
…Muslim nations !!! *dramatic gasp*
Now, obviously, only an idiot would would mistake this tale for truth.
Enter the idiot…
Muammar al-Gaddafi AKA The Colonel.
Or as I like to call him “Crazy Uncle Mo”.
Anyhoo, some time ago Uncle Mo said:
“There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe – without swords, without guns, without conquests. The 50 million Muslims of Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.”
Like I said, CRAZY Uncle Mo.
But he’s not one of those polarizing figures who just play up the rhetoric.
No no.
He’s actually begun converting Europe all by himself.
& stop #1 on his Euro Islamakeover Tour?
Rome, Italy !
Strange fact = only women of high length were allowed to attend his ramblings speech.
Sooo… seeing as almost half of the population was ignored & since most women aren’t tall, means this was a pretty pretty tough selection.
This type of action somehow reminds me of the similarly crazy Soup Nazi…
Convert-All-Non-Muslims-To-Islam-Plan or not, it’s still kinda creepy Uncle Mo actually went ahead & did this.
…unless of course, Uncle Mo wanted to help Berlusconi get rid of those pesky Veline.
Anyhoo, when it comes to Libyans, I can’t help recalling what a certain teenager once said back in 1985:
EB: Oh, my God, they found me, I don’t know how, but they found me. Run for it Marty !
MM: Who ? Who ?
EB: Who do you think ? The Libyans !!!
MM: Holy shit !
Holy shit indeed.
Still, all this has left me wondering what a small woman wearing a veil would look like…
Sooo… what the hell is wrong with that picture ???
On the 1 hand, we had Major Nidal Malik Hasan kill & injure several of his fellow Americans & colleagues.
Now while murder because of religious fanaticism is ALWAYS wrong, there is 1 point in this matter I’ve heard too little about & yet found very interesting.
It concerns the Major apparently having said, on multiple occasions, that there was an anti-Muslim sentiment present in the military.
Now I don’t know if something was done about said complaints but that seems to reveal something more like a troubled man than a so-called homegrown terrorist.
In any case, sad news.
& on the other hand, we had the US House Of Representatives voting for health care & passing the bill.
Obviously, an historic event but it’s disturbing to notice that the grand total of 435 Representatives, who were in a position to do something tremendously positive for the country as a whole, still had 215 idiots among them.
In any case, happy news.
Quite a week indeed.
So much so that a certain famous quote would seem to apply here.
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair…“
Seems Prez Obama won himself a lil’ Nobel Peace Prize today.
Aw, that’s nice.
I mean, how many people can claim they’ve won a prize for achieving absolutely nothing ?
*pause for laughter*
…no, the mentally retarded do not count.
*pause for more laughter*
Anyhoo, all this has made me think of Switzerland.
Good ol’ Switzerland. The land of chocolate, cuckoo clocks, knives, music boxes & of course neutrality.
Yes, the wonderful neutrality of the Swiss.
I wonder if there’s something… anything on this planet that would make the Swiss think twice about their policy ?
Anything at all.
Hmmm…
I mean back during WW II their attitude was all like…
“Fight Hitler ? Who ? Us ??? LOL ! No, no. We are neutral.”
A World War was being fought out between the forces for Good & the forces for Evil & yet they didn’t budge.
& I’ll bet if Germany had won, they would’ve respected that neutrality.
But back to the question at hand.
…nope, try as I might, I can’t think of a single damn thing that the Swiss would perceive as big enough of a threat to make them change tactics & finally take a stand.
With such distractions as videogames, drugs & pets, comics haven’t been reaching their original audience since the last century.
& while comic books are still being published, nowadays they’re mostly read by “adult” men. Thus the material isn’t even really aimed at kids anymore.
So with kids a lost cause and the current readers growing older by the day, comic book publishers must do something… anything to survive.
Like for example attracting… women readers !
Women however don’t wanna go anywhere near comics, which is a bit of a problem if you want their $$$.
Sure, they read Manga & sometimes even Fantasy themed comics like Sandman but rarely do they read superhero type of comics.
Not only are they apathetic if Doctor Doom wants to kill the Fantastic Four to death, they also find superhero comics to be nothing more than male-oriented power fantasies with a sexist approach to female characters.
So, I can only imagine the ecstatic happiness both DC & Marvel Disney are feeling about Agent Provocateur’s new lingerie collection Slutty Cheapness “Autumn” being based on the concept of Super Heroines…
Meet Agent Provocateur Elite Xemplar AKA “APEX“, the new super heroines from the planet Voluptura (yes, Voluptura).
According to Agent Provocateur’s site they’re: “a group of genetically enhanced superwomen on a mission. & dressed in our latest collection of spectacular lingerie how can they fail ?“
Wow !
Just knowing they’re out there, making the world a better place in their unmentionables makes me feel safer already.
& you can’t go wrong with such classic names like “Hornette” & “Nymphette”, now can you ?
& if you’re wondering, yes, they do have a leader…
Crystalina
There’s even a trailer for the upcoming “graphic” novel by writer Brady Webb & artist Staz Johnson…
Makes you wonder if the Mouse will go all Mwahaha-Hostile-Takeover on these characters too.
Can you imagine Minnie, Daisy & Clarabelle wearing next to nothing in the name of female empowerment ?
