Funny (political, religious) pictures

I'm not a religious guy by any stretch of the imagination, but this guy imbodies everything I'd expect in a pope figure.
 
I really do hope this guy sticks around for a good long time. He seems to know what he's doing, even if he still makes comments I occasionally disagree with.
 
On the one hand, I can't shake the feeling that most of the good stuff we see Francis doing is just good PR.

On the other hand, I still can't help but applaud the good stuff he's doing.

Of course it's pr, but it's also about setting an example. This guy's trying to act more like a catholic Dalai Lama figure instead of Evil Conservative Overlord. It's a better stance for the church, I feel.

So, by learning to swim as a kid, I forever alleviated my need for prophylactics? Is that what I take home from this?

Fun fact, a live preserver almost got me killed one year while white water rafting. Fell out of the boat, came up under it. Life preserver wanted to hold me there. Fortunately it was a large rubber raft (instead of a wood or metal boat), so when I rammed into it headfirst as the life jacket tried to force me to the surface, I DIDN'T brain myself on the underside.

Ended up kinda.. upside-down-bouncing my way out from under the raft.

PS. The Arkansas river is colder than a welldigger's ass in January, in Colorado. It was literally snow 15 minutes ago.
 
Because death is equivalent to pregnancy. Also going into the water without protection results in death 25% of the time.
My take away was that if you find yourself pregnant you should throw yourself in the lake, because having a kid is a living death anyway.

Oh, Canada. All three Canadian wireless providers released a promotional campaign. Spot any similarities?



CRTC protection from competition leading to price fixing? Who'da thunkit.

Damn. It was cold in June. I can't imagine how cold it was in Jan. We talked our guide into hitting some of the bigger rapids and it flung everyone out of the boat except the guide, me, and my cousin. All the guide kept saying was, "Shit, shit, shit, shit..." while he paddled and we pulled everyone else back in. Fun times!

I don't know which provider the 1st is, but remember, there's really only 3 companies in Canada: Telus, Bell, and Rogers. In those adds it's probably Rogers via colors (red is their thing), Koodo (Telus) and Fido which is just Rogers again!

Oh no, this was June as well. I meant it was colder than "A well-digger's ass would be in January" not that I went rafting in January. I'm pretty sure all the rafting companies close up shop before then, and the Arkansas shrinks to creek-level flows because all the water's staying frozen.

What section did you raft? I used to routinely do Brown's Canyon, the Royal Gorge, and the Numbers. Occasionally we went down to Taos and did some rafting there, too.

I've only rafted once. I'll have to look it up. It wasn't the Gorge. I am hoping to do that someday. It looked like a lot of fun when we visited.
 
This isn't actually funny, but I'm posting it anyway.



Leave it to SNL to make a subject less funny than what was actually going on. Stereo-typical Canadian accents! HILARIOUS!

The real guy talked about eating pussy directly to dozens of reporters. He off the cuffed funnier dialog than that entire skit.
 
... and now I'm kinda sad because this role would have been perfect for Chris Farley, except he ODed back in the 90's like virtually every other funny fat guy.
 
I'm surprised Jack Black has lasted as long as he has, especially with his career on a downturn due to bad movie projects. I mean, he's always going to have Kung-Fu Panda but Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny flopped and he's only done what... one movie since? Gulliver's Travels was terrible. Maybe he's doing alright because he's touring with Kyle Glass still?

Actually he's won alot of accolades for his recent portraly in Bernie.
