Did you see Robin Williams in Jakob the Liar? Okay, that voice when he’s pretending to be the BBC announcer:

“From the BBC“:

A campaign exhorting men to get a proper short-back-and-sides has been aired by state-run Pyongyang television.

The series is entitled Let us trim our hair in accordance with Socialist lifestyle.

While the campaign has been carried out primarily on television, reports have appeared in North Korean press and radio, urging tidy hairstyles and proper attire.

If they saw my hair, they’d shoot me in the head instead of bothering to try to cut it. Eek!

Men should get a haircut every 15 days, it recommended.

Let’s see … three months for me!

Hat Tip: Rick.

When Dan Rather presented false evidence of George W. Bush’s lack of service in the national guard, the pressure of right-wing bloggers led to the firing of many of the segment’s producers, and Rather’s upcoming retirement.

So when Brit Hume starts makin’ up shit on the air, it is only right, just, and fair, to smack that bitch down.

On February 3rd, Hume intentionally manipulated the words of the 32nd president, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, to make it appear as if FDR supported privatization of social security. This is a brazen falsehood. President Roosevelt’s grandson, James Roosevelt Jr., describes Hume’s journalistic malfeasance as an “an outrageous distortion”.

Head over to Oliver Willis for more of the smackdown.

This was the picture Kelli Davis had taken for her high school’s yearbook. In case you missed the obvious - she’s a girl, in a tuxedo. It’s horribly offensive, I know.

The picture was pulled from the yearbook by the school principal, Sam Ward. His reasoning? According to USA Today, “because Kelli Davis was wearing boy’s clothes.”

According to Local6:

Kelli, a straight-A student with no discipline problems, is a self-proclaimed lesbian. She said she was uncomfortable to have her chest exposed in the photo.

This might be a shock for Sam Ward, but women wear “boy’s clothes” all the time. It’s quite acceptable these days, especially with the amazing and radical notion of ‘progress’ and ‘equality.’

Look, I could understand if Sam “I’m living in the 1950’s, woohoo!” Ward removed a picture of a boy in a dress. After all, only Mel Gibson and the Scottish get away with that shit, but - barring a picture of a girl in a tuxedo because “it’s boy’s clothes”? What the fuck, man?

I bet he walks down main street screaming at all the teenage girls, “You’re wearing slacks! And a t-shirt! OH MY GOD HAVE YOU NO DECENCY WOMAN!!!!!”

Also, Keri Sewell, good for you. She was the student editor of the yearbook, “fired after refusing her adviser’s order to take the picture out.” Takes guts to do the right thing, and she deserves points for that.

Sam Ward: you’re an asshat.

Kelli Davis: you go right on wearing “boy’s clothes.” All the cool girls are doing it.

Hat Tip: Chepooka, whom I have it on good authority wears “boy’s clothes.”

… tree pretty.
