Here's one for your SAT analogy section: George W. Bush is to to Iraqi journalists and shoes as Australian Prime Minister Julia Gilliard is to high school students and sandwiches. For the second time within a month, the Sydney Morning Herald reports, Gilliard has been the target of a "bread-based missile" flung during a school visit, this time while visiting a high school in Canberra to announce some education grant thing. Earlier in May, a student at a high school in Queensland was suspended for nailing the PM with a vegemite sandwich. (The student's motive was unknown, but the working theory is that the PM asked him if he speaka her language.)
what do you expect from Forbes? With the exception of Rick Ungar, most of them are good for nothing besides wanking off at 30,000 feet. This is nothing more than a dressed up version of &quot;See? They&#039;re not poor, they have a refrigerator&quot; It&#039;s apples and oranges, what we are <strike> whining about </strike> debating is the level of poverty here NOW compared to earlier generations, not the standard of living compared to some third world country. Are we supposed to wait until our poor are literally living in mud huts before we give a shit about them?
Tornado hunting&quot; as imagined by some marketing doofus, vs. what happens when you actually catch one . . . in a stock vehicle whose &quot;preparation&quot; for the stunt consists of a paint job.
As convenient shorthand for &quot;barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen&quot;, I find it very convenient. It ain&#039;t actually meant to be funny, btw - it&#039;s supposed to be ironic, with only the mild humor that normally attaches to irony.
aren&#039;t you all supposed to be drinking heavily?
Remember, it was a vegemite sandwich.
Or, it could be a case of &quot;teen age stupid&quot;.
Oh,damn.
Apparently not. Well, even smarties are inconvenient for live-text.
Oh, that&#039;s wonderful. I do hope no one was seriously hurt.
You started posting pony pics ironically? Right. Pull the other ones, they&#039;ve got bells on.
Yay.
Well, it&#039;s not the <i>only</i> stuff that would do that, but yeah.

Is it just me, or is Judith Ireland a cutie?
The TSA can take naked pictures of me and grope me but I will not stand for them searching my sandwich!

More stupidity than irony.
I guess I won&#039;t be needing that blanket after all...
