“Konservative Konfederate Kommunists?”

Yeah, it figures you have to have a trendy name for everything.

Here’s a perfect Watterson strip to illustrate it:

“I’ve been reading about the beginning of the universe. They call it ‘The Big Bang.’”

“Yeah… and?”

“Isn’t it weird how scientists can imagine all the matter of the universe exploding out of a dot smaller than the head of a pin, but they can’t come up with a more evocative name for it than ‘The Big Bang?’ That’s the whole problem with science. You’ve got a bunch of empiricists trying to describe things of unimaginable wonder.”

“What would you call the creation of the universe?”

“The Horrendous Space Kablooie!”

“Hmm… that is better.”

“Almost anything would be.”

“We should lobby to change that.”

“And I think ‘Tyrannosaur’ should be changed to ‘Monstrous Killer Death Lizard.’”
:wink:

But doesn’t tryanasaurus Rex mean “Lizard King” in latin or something?

What is a conservative communist?

A Stalinist :)

@yourbuttocks:

What is a conservative communist?

Joey Bishop

he’s a lot of things.

Yeah, in Latin T-Rex does mean “King of Lizards,” but how many people know that? If you want to boggle and astound someone, words like the:

Laser Ray should be –> Super Impressive Amazing Discumbobulator from Martian X-Ray Nine

and

Conservative Communist --> New Age Communist entrenched in radical Republican idealism

I hate how social issuesa and economic issues make you right or left. I’m pretty moderate more to the right when concerning economics (I believe capitalism is the best system, but i wouldn’t want the late 1800s or modern day japan capitalism) and other issues…

pro guns…very pro
pro abortion
pro euthanasia
pro harsh (relatively) punishment of arrested illegal immigrants
pro true campaign finance reform bills
pro israel until oil is no longer needed
pro environment besides arctic drilling

what party lines are these? I’m happy to say they don’t belong to either. I hate how “conservative” politics are based on morality and how “liberal” politics are based on idealism.

I’ll believe what I want to :)

@djensen:

Like this …

it didn’t work! can you email me with the exact appearance of the code?

“I’ll believe what I want to”

Shouldn’t we all? 8)
I can agree with most of your issues, but in almost all cases, it’s not very black and white, cut-and-dry, but with gray spots in between. It just depends on how much you are willing to go the distance.

no…not you! :P

Actually Djensen, I offered to host the imagine for Horten… just I can’t get this crazy update program working!

tell me when you get it working.

i tried what Djensen gave me and it didn’t work! I hope it does, because even I think it is too big! I just don’t want to get rid of it.

BTW, how do you post pictures in the first place?

“”

Which img do I replace?

Okay, thank you very much. :)
