Unmanned Aerial Manhood outrage at Kasparov rally Politicians in Western countries talk a lot about the contribution technology can make to politics, but they're generally on about quite limited ideas like video debates. In Russia, some activists are much more avant garde - seeking to make their (unspecified) point by the use of a remote-controlled flying penis fitted with …
You need to know Russian to do get that one.
The chopper is launched right around the time when Casparov is talking about the necessity to treat all political views and opponents with some level of equality and give them the chance to express themselves.
So the first thing he does after the chopper incident is to snigger at whoever launched it.
Half of the Russian politicians would have laughed it off. In fact Casparov could have used it as a proof of his point and made a proper joke of it. So instead he showed himself to everyone as a sad w**er.
Oh well.. At this rate it does not matter how much money we pour into Russian opposition it will not succeed.
Great, now the retards from Sadville are playing in real-life, too? What do these idiots think is so funny about a flying penis? Is it their pathetic attempt to show the world how big theirs is (when the truth is, I would guess, exactly the opposite)? I imagine these are the same people who think prank/crank phone calls are funny and think the majority of YouTube videos are funny.
Am I just getting ornery? I'm only 30, so I can't say "in my old age"...
"It's a bird, it's a plane.....it's wedding tackle!"
"Putin's may be bigger, but mine can do Immelman turns!"
"The one threat the KGB had never encountered."
"Now that's a political message I can get behind, but I'd bet my wife would like it behind her!:
The Icon because of the aerial capers.
that the bodyguards didn't pull out their handguns and open fire on the huge flying cock, which would have made it the coolest youtube clip ever, instead of just standing there looking perplexed for a couple of minutes and then a right hook.
Paris because she shows no hesitation in dealing with this kind of threat.
Having never been involved with Sadville I immediately thought of a book I read as a teenager, Schrödinger's Cat Trilogy by Robert Anton Wilson. I seem to recall a man gets his genitals removed for a sex change and gets his "helicockter" stuffed and mounted on the wall. It gets stolen at some point and eventually gets thrown at the pope. (I believe it was painted red, white, and blue at the time).
The caution sign because it does appear like it is warning of flying phalluses (or is it flying phalli?)
