Kaboom!

Not sure if this was posted or not. Saw this at desmoinesregister.com. I thought it was pretty cool looking, and a nice tip of the hat to Mr. Gary Rima.

I push my luck far enough with some things... I actually contained myself with this one.

Re: Kaboom!

I was thinking about posting it myself, but the language is rather harsh. For one lecture class when teaching American history from the Civil War to the present (college level) I wanted to use a couple of the front pages from "Our Dumb Century" as a way to lighten things up and have some fun. I could only find one about the Hoover administration that the language was tame enough to be able to use it comfortably in the classroom; it didn't matter anyway, the students didn't get the parody or the fact that it was a fake newspaper. If you have to point it out, the joke ain't funny.

Re: Kaboom!

I don't understand the point of posting the "Moon Men" newspaper graphic . . . What exactly are you trying to say ryan19? Was that supposed to be a joke? I'm confused . . .

yeah, but not as awesome as the first time.

It would be like getting a Christmas present, but then having it taken away a week later, wrapped up again, and then you just reopen it. Really, would that still be awesome?

a more appropriate analogy would be where you opened your christmas present on xmas eve and got all excited about it. But beaker didn't open theirs until xmas day. Then they get excited over their gifts, but you respond with "bah humbug, that is soooo last night".

Basically, it just makes you a douche.

ooooor...

I opened my Christmas present on Christmas Eve (which I would never do), and got all excited about it. And then beaker came along a week later, and looked at my present (let's say its an iPod) and said... "Wow! Did you see you got an iPod for Christmas?!"

I would respond with some sort of smart @ss remark like "oh really, I did?"

And then JayJ, playing in his snow fort mumbling to himself about how much the world sucks would scream, "You are a douche, ryan19!!"

And then I would laugh and keep listening to my iPod, because I realize how funny/fun it is to get JayJ all riled up.

Best. Christmas. Ever.
