Crying Over You?

So this week’s ‘late-look-alike’ competition has been turned into an ‘odd-one-out’ photo montage instead…

With profound apologies to he Big ‘O’ — Can you spot the odd one out?

Here’s your clue: “He’s no longer just ‘Il’ … he’s dead!“…

…And whilst many folks may have shed a tear over the demise of Roy more than a couple of decades ago (the 23rd anniversary of Roy Orbison’s death was in fact barely a fortnight ago) — many millions of N.Koreans (if no-one else in their un-programmed minds) have been ‘Crying’ crocodile tears over the loss of their ‘Dear’ Leader… the dictator with a penchant for a ‘Pretty Woman’ (indeed a whole army of them!)…

And whilst the death of the despot may have been something his subjects could only countenance ‘In Dreams’, they would certainly be ‘Running Scared’ if they didn’t make a public show that seemed to say ‘I’m Hurting’ (even if the reality is — only in a good way!).

Whilst most North Koreans will undoubtedly be glad that ‘It’s Over’ — even if they cannot acknowledge it — ‘The Crowd’ will probably also be wondering what lies across the ‘Blue Bayou’ in the shape of the successor to this pint-sized autocrat… seemingly ‘Un’other of the dictatorial dynasty, who’ll likely shape up to be as bad if not worse that the one who has just kicked up his Cuban Heels!!

(P.S. An afterthought… What’s the difference between Bruce Willis & Ashton Kutcher’s -ex and Kim Jung Il? One’s Demi Moore and the other is Demi-God No More!)

Go Daffy! Look-Alike Winner…

This week’s look alike competition winner sent in by Mr. E. Mann:

The coincidences just pile up — for example:

Whereas for famed Liverpuddlian comedian Ken Dodd, ‘avoiding a tax’ once got him into a hole, for recently deceased dictator, Col. Muammar Gaddafi, ‘avoiding attacks’ also meant he got into a hole — from which he was summarily retrieved and executed by the very people that he had promised to show ‘no mercy ‘ to!

Ken Dodd’s timeless comedy patter has meant that he has frequently left his audiences ‘dying of laughter’ — whereas Gaddafi simply left people dying.

Gaddafi surrounded himself with a bevvy of attractive female bodyguards, whereas Doddy surrounded himself with a bevvy of Diddy-men.

Doddy once had his house set on fire by a nutcase, whereas as Gaddafi had various houses set on fire by bunch of nutcases (the US military)…

Doddy had a top selling single with ‘Tears’, Gaddafi never had a top selling single but certainly cause a lot of ‘tears’ to be shed…

Doddy started his life in Knotty Ash (a suburb of Liverpool), Gaddafi whose life just ended will soon be in knotty pine… or at least simply ash!

Uncanny…

Doppelgänger? Now That’s Queer…

Well I’ll be bugged…

It’s all for a bit of fun though… but here is ‘this weeks’ lookalike competition winner, sent to us by Anne Onimous:

By the way… Are you being served?

(Editor’s note: We’d just like to point out that this humorous post means no offence to the late John Inman or his estate, nor any slight against gays, nor are we implying that Mr. Assange is gay –indeed we are given to believe he is quite the ladies man. This is all simply in a manner of light-hearted non-u fun. If you didn’t crack a smile were sorry, but for goodness sake — lighten up! It’ll soon be 2012)

Shocking live video footage of landlord intimidating an low-waged tenant who is struggling to meet the rent. Being a young entrepreneur is all very well but not at the cost of all humanity and moral values… Kids these days… tch!

Any wise person must instinctively know that messing with nature is wrong. But this could be the terrifying consequence of long term consumption of GMO foods…

Well It Made ME Laugh…

Jimmy Carr on “8-out-of-10 Cats”:

“Im not sure I agree with the morality of eating meat.

In fact, I only eat what I can kill…

But there’s not much meat on a sleeping vagrant”

Was This The Right Bonus Offer?

This REAL ‘third party’ ad (see screencap  image below) was just seen on self-proclaimed ‘health ranger’ Mike Adam’s Popular Natural News website, that discusses all-things natural health related…

Oh to be a fly-on-the-wall when the Marketing Team gather round to discuss the success (or otherwise) of their latest Campaign Special Offer…

Arguably — knowing ‘when ‘ you are going to ‘get swine flu’ could reduce the stress of worrying about it — I suppose? ;)

Lost in Translation or an Honest Lawyer?

I’m currently based in Spain — as some will know — and that means I occasionally see some ‘odd ads’ on my Google Adsense ad boxes. This is a recent one that begged me to ask:

Is this just an amazingly and unusually honest lawyer — or abogado — here in Spain?

But one wonders how many clicks this ad actually attracts from prospective clients? But then again it does sound like the ideal legal representative in Spain for pessimists (so that’s most British folks, I guess!)

An Honest Spanish Solicitor?

Maybe they just used Google’s Translate tool… That’s absolutely accurate - es Verdad!

Ninja Parade

Errm … Looks like it was a great parade!

Perhaps only outdone by the 2009 Annual Conference for the Apathetic, to which noone bothered to turn up:

Annual Ninja Parade Slips By Again…

… and if that makes YOU want to learn to become a Ninja and access their stealth secrets, which will allow YOU to not appear at next year’s parade, then see: Underground Ninja Secrets

(and, no, this does not mean that they managed to slip past the crowds by going underground…duh!)

K-Fed Pregnant?

Seen and snapped recently in public it is evident that K-Fed – best known as Britney Spears ex-(brief)-husband-and-carer-for-their-kids – who was formerly a fit-looking dancer… has now become Kevin Feder(no-longer-slim)line.

Evidently being largely employed as an overpaid nanny – too much of his reported $20k a month from Brit is being spent on Big Macs and Sodas – in the traditional, all-American style.

Either that… or potentially even more shocking (but certainly News-Enquirer worthy) K-Fed may be pregnant! Well – Arnold Schwarzenegger did it with Danny de Vito! So maybe this is a new strategy to capture the headlines:

Naturally the low-brow press will soon be speculating on just who may be responsible for K-Fed’s ‘delicate condition’?

But for the small number of intellectually superior US citizens – it will be obvious that this new move by Federline is just the prelude to launching K-Fed’s no doubt shortly to be rampantly promoted – “K-Fed Diet”… mind you he will actually have to shed the weight first, to cash in on that one… at least for as long as it takes to do a photo-shoot or two, and some prime-time chat-show slots!
