RUMORS ON THE INTERNETS

What Would Jesus Do If A Fly Landed On Him While Being Interviewed By John Harwood?

  • CNBC Jamaican Financial Psychic Jim Cramer just wants to do his televised Tarot reading in peace, but Barack Obama keeps calling in and asking tiresome questions about the future. Enough already! [Think Progress]
  • There is Andrew Sullivan, Heir of Isildur, who hails from the faraway Atlantic. And then there is Anonymous, your teenage son, who comes from the Basement. They are part of the Fellowship of the Internet, and they must stop Sauron from stealing the election in Iran. [AMERICAblog]
  • You look stressed. Why don’t you light a few candles, hop in the tub and relax to the celebrated album Whale Sounds and Michelle Malkin? The first track — “Closing Guantanamo is the easy and lazy thing to do” — always puts us in a magical Enya-like trance. [Michelle Malkin]
  • For today’s RedState Bible Study we will be reading 1 Kings 3:16-28, The Judgement of King Obama: “And two women appeared before Obama and began to bicker in a most incommodious manner, both insisting they were the mother of some unborn baby, which wise King Obama knew was impossible. Finally, the King rose from his gilded throne and bellowed, ‘Bring the unborn child to me, so that I may abort it with my sword.’ And then King Obama swatted a fly that landed on his arm. The End.” [RedState]

  1. Isn’t it ironic that Cramer is only thinking short-term?

  2. Mangodash says at 6:00 pm, June 18th, 2009

    I like this Riley character.

  3. magic titty says at 6:03 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Jesus would smite the fly for being insolent.

  4. Scrodd says at 6:06 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Great, Andrew Sullivan is teaming up with /b/! Do not send pics, and remember rule #34!!

  5. chascates says at 6:09 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Mangodash: Riley does great work but don’t praise him too much. Once he figures out he can get paid actual money for this type of work someplace else he’ll be gone and we’ll start from scratch again.

  6. “Iran calls for aid!”
    “And Sullivan will answer.”

  7. SayItWithWookies says at 6:13 pm, June 18th, 2009

    That RedStater presents a great argument for dying in childbirth. Why an actual living human being would choose abortion instead is hard to imagine. And every time I think that I’ve seen every form of idiocy, one more springs up — it’s amazing.

  8. Bronkers says at 6:17 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Jeebus, Lil’ Waggamuffin, you’re so good you’re unsettling me. Chascates is right — no more praise. We have to keep you unsettled and anxious to please.

  9. LittlePig says at 6:18 pm, June 18th, 2009

    you may remember “Anonymous.” They’re the guerrilla online activists taking on the Scientologists. Anonymous, with the support of the Pirate Bay, have set up a site to help Iranians interested in using the Internet to aide their battle - and you can tell it’s real because it’s the same URL that Anonymous uses.

    *sigh* Just when you think /b/ is the bottom of the barrel…

  10. LittlePig says at 6:19 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Scrodd: DO NOT WANT

  11. doloras says at 6:23 pm, June 18th, 2009

    LittlePig: Actually, if I know anything about /b/, they will be REVOLTED at the use of “Anonymous”’s name in this manner. I believe that they would call coming to the aid of the people of Iran “moralfaggotry”. They gave up fighting Scientology when they realised that it had become about the good deeds rather than the lulz. Actually, look for a 4chan splinter group to start trolling in favour of Ahmedinejad.

  12. Mad Farmer Manifest says at 6:25 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Way to go full Tolkein nerd on the second item. But I guess Lord Cascates says that we shall praise thee too much.

  13. SayItWithWookies says at 6:26 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Jim Cramer: “But until we get the economy moving again, I think everybody wishes that Obama would just kind of go away for a little bit.”

    Yeah, how are the Republicans going to claim that the recession just fixed itself when President Obama’s always hogging the spotlight doing shit about it?

  14. glamourdammerung says at 6:26 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Cramer is just trying to pick a fight with someone that is polite enough to not hand his ass to him on network television multiple times.

  15. Joshua Norton says at 6:27 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Hey, I’m with Barry. A fly buzzes around me and I grab the nearest object and start swinging.

  16. MisterLoki says at 6:30 pm, June 18th, 2009

    doloras: That has already happened, at least to some extent.

    Oh, and Anonymous and Mudkipz in one day? Welcome to /w/.

  17. Humpback says at 6:30 pm, June 18th, 2009

    I keep singing to Michelle, but she never sings back.

  18. ManchuCandidate says at 6:31 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Note to Red State, Sarah Palin’s very unhappy with you to insinuate that Barry as Solomon would abort her grandkids as sired by A-Rod.

  19. I’ve killed flies with my hand before, but a first swat kill is impressive. My atavistic Id is rolling over and showing its belly.

  20. ManchuCandidate says at 6:40 pm, June 18th, 2009

    I don’t know how whale shrieks and the sound of ping pong balls being shot out of a coochie are considered soothing, but I expect weird shit from Malkin’s typical audience of dunderheads.

  21. hobospacejunkie says at 6:43 pm, June 18th, 2009

    In keeping with Chascates admonition, not bad Waggaman. Not bad. Probably could be better.

    But I don’t think I’m out of line in praising your Sieg Heil to Rep. Boner. That’s along the lines of “go fuck yourself, Mr. Cheney.” I’m so surprised he decided no more photos after that. Keep up the good work annoying our evil representatives. You do us proud.

  22. Come here a minute says at 6:53 pm, June 18th, 2009

    chascates: Just don’t send your resume to washingtonpost.com — not hirin’, firin’.

  23. lawrenceofthedesert says at 7:03 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Like all in the financial markets who count on the narcolepsy of the small investor, Cramer can’t stand attention. Obama and the rest of us, even the Fed and SEC, should quietly go away and stop paying attention. All Wall Street suffers when that pest Accountability raises its monster head.

  24. jasper f. krone says at 7:10 pm, June 18th, 2009

    So now Malkin approves of Coulter’s “9/11 Harpies”? Aren’t they just opportunistic golddiggers? What difference does it make to a harpie golddigger whether the prison is open or closed?

  25. Holding Out for a Hero says at 7:18 pm, June 18th, 2009

    A day may come when the technology of the Twitters fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of blogging from our basements but it is not this day!!!!!

  26. Crow T. Robot says at 8:39 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Riley–

    Nice job bringing the geeky on this post. More verbose & more purely nerd-y than either Ken or the ginger generally deliver. There did need to be one more entry though, for symmetry.

    80%

  27. Vulpes82 says at 10:27 pm, June 18th, 2009

    Now, Riley, don’t be silly! Andrew Sullivan isn’t Aragorn; he’s obviously a Beorn!

  28. CivicHoliday says at 11:54 pm, June 18th, 2009

    a dead mommy beats a not dead mommy anyday. Jeebus lurves losers.

  29. darbyogill says at 1:30 am, June 19th, 2009

    I love New Intern Riley. Never leave us. Also, Intern Riley, would you like to marry me in a polygimist version of four-square?

  30. wallythepug says at 4:03 am, June 19th, 2009

    I loved Jon Stewart’s take on the whole fly brouhaha, ending with Dan Rather calling JS a pussy.

  31. LittlePig says at 8:35 am, June 19th, 2009

    doloras: You’re absolutely right - I guess I should have said “just when you thought /b/ n00bs were the bottom of the barrel”. Avarosis’ utter cluelessness was what I was trying to convey, because hey, it’s always the same group of guys wearing the Guy Fawkes masks, right?

    Note to Mr. Avarosis: SHUT. UP.

  32. SlipperyDick says at 9:06 am, June 19th, 2009

    Best total thrashing of the Andrew Sullivan award goes to Katha Pollitt , who apparently knows less than any Ensign intern knows about soliciting bareback sex on the internets.

  33. FlamingSooner says at 9:42 am, June 19th, 2009

    So, Gianna Molla made A PERSONAL CHOICE in 1962?

    I’m glad she was somehow able to do that….since that was NOT LEGAL then.

  34. dsdrane says at 12:07 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Yeah, Andrew really needs to get some sleep.

  35. flyingspaghettimonster says at 11:48 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Yes, let’s let widowed soccer moms decide policy for the DHS. Oh Michelle. Are there no internment camps for these people?
