'If you were to come to Minnesota, I could have you locked up like that. That's power.'
Once upon a time, America gave one of its top fifty states (Minnesota) to a teevee wrestler named Jesse Ventura. Many decades later, a simple New Jersey man met Barack Obama and suddenly started seeing famous people everywhere. And that’s why we are posting this picture of the animated corpse of Jesse Ventura, haunting the 25%-Off sale aisle at the discount toy shop, the end. [Celebrity Magnet]

Top shelf, behind The Body, blue book near the end: “Let’s Go Felching.”

You Go, Minnesota! Right ON. And *still* in the top 50!

It’s sad to see a highly skilled professional athlete like Jesse let himself go this way.

Mr Blifil March 15, 2010 at 11:55 am

I think this is from his screen test to play the lead in The Jeff Gannon Story.

I thought that was Morgan Griffith dressed as P.G.T. Beauregard.

He looks like a pudgier, less-intense version of Riff Raff, from Rocky Horor.

Look out Jess! The Illuminati gonna take away your Cheetos!

An American in Toronto March 15, 2010 at 12:20 pm

I would love to see Jesse judge a “Conspiracy Theorist Idol” type show, where each week Teabaggers and the like battle it out to see who can bring the most crazy. My money is on the guy to think Stanley Kubrick faked the Moon Landing: http://www.jayweidner.com/ShiningSecrets.html

This moron was recently on that “Joy Behard” show, plugging an actual book that he ghost-wrote about–really–”American Conspiracies,” and on the show, Ventura insisted that there were gunmen shooting at JFK from three sites. Yes, he’s not alone on that theory, and many people aren’t necessarily crazy who think that, and it’s been suggested by some forensic experts, but—when it comes from Ventura, or when anything comes from Ventura, everything seems crazy.

What about the American conspiracies that allowed a professional wrestler to get elected as a governor, that allowed an average-to-poor actor and previous bodybuilder to get elected as a governor, that allowed some horrible actor and demented moron to get elected president, and allowed some poseur named Ehrlich to get elected as a governor? Huh? What about those conspiracies? There’s got to be some black-helicopter people working hard for those crazy things to happen!

Why can’t some people just shut up, go away, and peacefully retire?

Barcode of the Apocalypse March 15, 2010 at 12:59 pm

The depressing thing is that Jessie Ventura was the best governor Minnesota has had in recent years.

betterDeadThanRed March 15, 2010 at 1:01 pm

Wow, being governor of Minnesota sure aged Jesse Ventura. To think he was a well trained professional athlete when he took that job.

Compared to Tim Pawlenty not too bad a governor. Of course compared to Tim Pawlenty, a lazy software engineer like me would be a fair governor.

Way Cool Larry March 15, 2010 at 1:09 pm

[re=530400]thefrontpage[/re]: I really wish Ventura didn’t go around looking like an old crazy uncle — that hair is gross! The conspiracy theorist in me makes me wonder if Ventura is trying to make conspiracy theorists look bad!

Autoo March 15, 2010 at 1:16 pm

[re=530437]Way Cool Larry[/re]: The conspiracy theory within the conspiracy theory? This is finally starting to get interesting.

Celebritymagnet March 15, 2010 at 1:21 pm

Unfortunately the Conspiracy Theory Monopoly sold out fast.

Jessie managed to some really good people to run his administration. Too bad he was so thin skinned.

Make fun if you will, but Jesse Ventura certainly did a better job than the Bachmannesque goob Minnesotans have elected more recently.

Seanibus March 15, 2010 at 2:20 pm

Better yet, on the shelf right above the toys is a book or poster for James Van Praagh, the once well-known “Spirit Medium” who way back in the 1990s invented the televised “Speaking with Dead Relatives of Audience Members” act that “Crossing Over with John Edwards” (the one that didn’t fuck Reilly Hunter, as far as I know) has perfected more recently.

So obviously this is a spirit image of Jesse being channeled by a medium.

QED.

[re=530548]Naked Bunny with a Whip[/re]: Ventura put through the tax cuts that are currently screwing the state with our Californiaesque (proportionally) budget crisis. With DFL complicity, of course. Because a booming economy will never go bad! House prices will never go down! Remember the 20′s? Those were great times that lasted forever.

And I will just remind everyone: TPaw has never gotten over 50% of the vote.

2006:
TPaw – 46.7%
Hatch – 45.7% (DFL)
Hutchinson – 6.4% (Independent; relatively liberal)

2002:
TPaw – 44.4%
Moe – 36.5% (DFL)
Penny – 16.2% (Independent)

A valid criticism of the state: we are morons for throwing votes at 3rd party candidates who won’t win. Ventura was a fluke and has cursed the elections ever since with the idea that we can totally have three-way races.

coolcatdaddy March 15, 2010 at 3:15 pm

Egads! I never thought I’d see someone wearing David Crosby’s hair and looking worse in it than David Crosby does…

martinette March 15, 2010 at 3:18 pm

Look at this man. Now reflect that Tim Pawlenty did a worse job as Governor. That just begins to illustrate how sucky Tim Pawlenty is.

blkblt March 15, 2010 at 3:46 pm

I remember the news anchor having to announce Ventura won the race. It looked like he had swallowed a mouse.

gurukalehuru March 15, 2010 at 3:51 pm

Does that one on the far right say “Blockass”?

GOPCrusher March 15, 2010 at 5:32 pm

He needs to bring back the feathered boas.

Celebritymagnet March 15, 2010 at 7:31 pm

Too bad he already auctioned off all of his feather boas for charity.

Who cares!!! My boyfriend thinks the same with me. He- is eight years older than me, lol. We met online at an age gap dating site- I EAT POOP , a nice and free place for Older Men, or Older Women to eat poop and Younger Men, to- interact with each other.

[re=531001]kaykel96[/re]: Kankel, baby, what’s wrong is that a spambot would think we’d be stupid enough to visit your internet blight. If I ever get the cheetoh stains out of my tighty-whities and venture out of the basement, it won’t be in search of your love.

Wow, James Taylor looks terrible.
