Humpday Mashup Dump: Skyrim Edition - I wanted to make an arrow in the knee joke, but I bought the game like two weeks too late and people have microscopic attention spans and a comedic expiration date of “the second time I’ve seen something”.

The Weeping At Kim Jong Il’s Funeral Was Predictably Ridiculous - North Korea is more or less the “tough biker guy crying in fear when he sees a puppy” of people in real life.

North Korea Soccer Team Forgiven For Poor Play…Just Kidding

07.30.10 Written by Shakey

I’m not going to complain about how sorry my life is for like three days after reading this story. After the North Korean national team qualified for the 2010 World Cup for the first time since 1966, you’d think things were looking all peachy keen (Besides the fact that they have to reside in North Korea, of course) for them, right? WRONG. Their trip to South Africa resulted in a miserable flop of an appearance that resulted in three straight losses, including a nationally televised debacle of a game against Portugal when they surrendered 7 goals in a mortifying loss that ended with a walk to the locker room that probably felt like the Bataan death march.

Now a loss like this would ordinarily have sent a bout of white hot rage searing through the veins of almighty leader Kim Jong-il if he still had the ability to stay conscious for more than 5 minutes, but now that he spends most of his time trying to find his glasses the punishment responsibilities were handed down to his son Kim Jong un, who came down upon his mangy bunch of soccer playing failures with the full force of the hammer of Thor, which Kim Jong-il coincidently claims he owns.

The entire squad was forced onto a stage at the People’s Palace of Culture and subjected to criticism from Pak Myong-chol, the sports minister, as 400 government officials, students and journalists watched. The players were subjected to a “grand debate” on July 2 because they failed in their “ideological struggle” to succeed in South Africa, Radio Free Asia and South Korean media reported.

The team’s coach, Kim Jong-hun, was reportedly forced to become a builder and has been expelled from the Workers’ Party of Korea. The coach was punished for “betraying” Kim Jong-un – one of Supreme Leader Kim Jong-il’s sons and heir apparent.

Following ideological criticism, the players were then allegedly forced to blame the coach for their defeats. -Telegraph

Remember all of those people who joke that the North Korea soccer team was about to be sent down to the coal mines in a runaway mine cart to work in a spooky cave filled with flesh-eating mega-bats? Well you guys must feel like a bunch of jerks now, don’t you? Read the rest of this entry »

TIGER FALLOUT CONTINUES

12.19.09 Written by Amber Jones

mama_woodsThe latest companies to hop off the T. Woods Man-Gravy Train to Whore City are Tag Heuer and Gillette.  As far as Tag Heuer is concerned,

the company’s CEO Jean-Christophe Babain is quoted as saying in the Swiss newspaper Le Matin: “We recognize Tiger Woods as a great sportsman, but we have to take into account the sensitivity of some consumer in relation to recent events.”People.com

Since Gillette’s slogan is “The Best a Man Can Get”, I have to wonder if they were just pissed because he chose to slam his meat into girls that look like this, this, and this.  When you’re worth in excess of $600 milli, I’d hope you could buy something that doesn’t resemble the truck stop tranny you’d find on the other side of a glory hole.

I just really hope that once his divorce is final he can still afford to buy his mom some more sweat suits and El Pollo Loco so she can continue to cram her face full of shame.
