St. Patty's Day Re-Post!

Fat Kid wanted to know why I didn't re-post this, one of my favorite, oddest Top Tens. Well, you don't have to hold a gun to my head to re-post old material.

...

Some people love potatoes. Some people could take them or leave them. Some people don't like potatoes much at all.

And then some people despise potatoes so passionately they malign them in the most venomous, hateful terms. An entire "subculture of hate" has sprung up in opposition to the innocent, humble tater. Committed "tater-haters" spread their venom in order to undermine what they call "the Spud Agenda."

Top Ten Disparaging Terms for Potatoes, By People Who Really, Really Hate Potatoes

10. "The Irish Scourge"

9. "The Predatory Pedophiles of the Plant Kingdom"

8. "Idaho turdmuffins"

7. "Hitler-tubers" (archaic form: "Kaiser-tubers")

6. "Satan's Yams"

5. "Dirt-Testes"

4. "Insidious, Godless Commuspuds"

3. "Nature's Little Zionists"

2. "Dirtbacks" (considered a racial slur against potatoes)

…and the Number One Disparaging Term for Potatoes, by People Who Really, Really Hate Potatoes…

1. "Retard-apples"

Ace,

LGF and even James Lileks have taken to mocking Oliver Willis: http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=15105_Willis-_The_Party_of_Harry_Reid&only=yes

Just think, you were doing it when "giggling at retards" wasn't cool.

:-D I love this post.

I still think Irish turd muffins would be best for the festive spirit of the day.

I especially like this Irish timeline by the Onion. Comedy goldmine that thing is.

Especially this one:

1487: In a decision still regretted today, Irish let a few British friends stay in Belfast

Crap, gotta link the page - not the pic.

Correct link here. Loose shit. My apologies.

Posted by: fat kid on March 17, 2005 01:32 PM

And the funny thing is, "potato" translates into French as "apple of the earth" or something like that. Just a thought.

Posted by: blackbird4739 on March 17, 2005 01:53 PM

That list not only fuckin' sucked, but the whole premise did too. I was pissed I took the time to read it until I got to the last one and laughed my ass off.

Now I don't know what to think.

Maybe I'll just go have a good cry.

Posted by: The Warden on March 17, 2005 07:05 PM

well, the whole list came from that first one.

"Retard-apples" just popped into my head for no reason as a nickname for potatoes, and I laughed, and so I wrote the list and premise around that one good joke.

Be honest Ace...did Cedar help you with #3?

Posted by: Jack M. on March 17, 2005 10:19 PM

I'm surprised that there are no Spud aberrations listed.

Your Idaho Spud Buddy,

What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals.
The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite.
Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.
