Too darned funny
« on: October 15, 2009, 10:15:23 AM »
So some doofi gin up a supposed billboard and include a domain name that they have not yet registered.

A bunch of folks from the other side of the aisle grab onto the possible domain names and redirect them all to a site supporting the antithesis of the message the supposed billboard meant to convey.

Where is that Nelson Munz "Ha-Ha!" pic when I need it?

stay safe.

What the billboard for/against?

You forgot the part about the shaggy dog I think.
He never brought you an unbalanced budget, which is a perennial joke. He never voted himself a wage increase and, to this day, gives back part of his salary every year. He has always voted to preserve the Constitution, cut government spending, lower healthcare costs, end the war on drugs, secure our borders with immigration reform and protect our civil liberties.

That is so full of win!!!

For those that don't want to wade through the other boards version of this same conversation:

Anti's set up a big billboard:



Anti's forgot to register the domain name.

Now, if you click on www.wegotourgunsinvirginia.com (or any of about a dozen variants) it redirects to the Virginia Citizens Defense League...  A nice pro-gun group out in VA...

Nicely done.

Kinda reminds me of the stink PETA put up when somebody realized their webname hadn't been registered, and was purchased for People Eating Tasty Animals.org.   =D

Nope!  I know the beaded gent, and we bear a passing similarity, but it is he not me.

I do hope he sues for model fees. =D

"beaded"? I didn't see any beads, but my eyes aren't so good at that range.

His beads are hidden under his beard.

PS - most of the other variations (.org, .net, etc) under both WeGotOurGunsInVirginia and WeGotOurGunsInVa have been snapped up.  Seems the BG model posted the prototype to his Facebook page and told a friend, who told a freiend, who started the whole ball of wax.  Now the BG model is in deep Doo-Doo with the folks who wanted to set up the anti-gunshow site.

Too bad. [/sarcasm]

Haven't laughed at the internet that hard in a long time. I hope the guy in the foreground sees his pic used and sues the billboard folks.

I'm so contrarian that I didn't respond to the thread.

The guy in the foreground is the doofus that posted to his Facebook and started the whole avalanche of FAIL.

He is in soooo much trouble with the folks that wanted to set up the "end the gunshow loophole" website.

stay safe.

He posed for a photo that was shopped on to the gun show picture, yes?

Yes, he willfully and intentionally posed for that photo, knowing it was going to be shopped onto the photo of the gunshow.  He was soooooo proud of what he was doing for the cause that he just had to tell everyone.

And now he has been fired, will not get paid the modest modeling fee he was promised, has suffered the ire and scorn of those he was laboring for, and is the object of intarwebs humiliation.

Look for him to appear soon as a mid-level political appointment in the service of the Administration.  He certainly possesses all the qualifications.

stay safe.

So can he legally own guns?  Did he actually buy 10 guns?

God question. Do we have a name to check against the public record for felonies and convictions?
