Report: American Interrogators Used "Sesame Street, Rap, Heavy Metal in Torture of Prisoners." But They Could've Done a Lot Better Than That!


The report this week (link below), from the always reliable and trustworthy Al-Jazeera news agency, claims that interrogators blasted Sesame Street and another annoying songs to torture prisoners in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo Bay...

But since many Sesame Street, rap and metal songs aren't at all annoying, methinks the effectivness of the torture would all depend on the selection of the particular play list. Here are ten songs/noise collections that I would personally select to really drive people out of their minds, if need be:

10. "Hail to the Chief":  A somewhat annoying tune to begin with, and that effect's only been sullied and intensified by what we've seen and had to experience rottenly over the past 13 years.

9. "Revolution 9" by The Beatles:  Especially if you're already somewhat mentally unhinged, then I'd wager that about two listens of this 8 minute-plus collage of weird sounds effects, chants, and wailing would officially send you straight to the nuthouse.

8. "You Had a Bad Day" from American Idol:  It would be the dictionary definition of "bad day": Being tortured by interrogators, coupled with having to listen to this sap song over and over at the same time.

7. "Love Is Blue" by Paul Mauriat:  This lovely but haunting old instrumental is OK to hear once, but I can certainly see how it would have a man fully deranged after several listens (see S2 Millennium episode entitled, "Room With No View"). Once every 20 years is about the most any common man could stand.

6. "Elmo's World Theme" from Sesame Street:  Bet this monstrosity was the #1 Sesame Street favorite of these interrogators.

5. "Sweet Caroline" by Neil Diamond:  For my money, the most overplayed and annoying karaoke song of all-time. Good torture never seemed so easy.

4. Just about any Rod Stewart song ever (except for "Young Turks"):  Hot Rod always had the look and the voice; too bad the material typically pulled up the rear.

3. Incessant Camera Shutter Sound Effect from ABC's "Scandal":  This constant camera noise on the show is even more tortuous than the motor-mouthed dialogue of all the actors (which is saying something). Watching this show is like taking a Special Forces course in torture resistance.

2. University of Kansas Fight Song, "I'm a Jayhawk":  Worst. Most Brutal. Fight Song. EVER.

1. "Gangham Style" by PSY:  I hated this one the first time I ever heard it. I can only imagine how demented and broken I would be after hearing it 10 or 20 more times.  Do me a favor and just toss me in the ol' Snake Pit right now.

Obama's Inauguration Occurs This Week, & I Was Totally Oblivious! And Why Are We Even Spending Money on This Event?


I get why we have big, costly inauguration events whenever a new president is first elected. I'm fine with that tradition. But how about going forward, we end it when it comes to presidents who have been reelected?

Especially when we're still facing awful economic times, stifling unemployment, and an ever-growing $16 trillion plus national debt (which itself is in no small part due to the pathetic fiscal efforts of our current president). If Obama was 1/1000th the "new," "transcending" and "transformational" figure that he held himself out as five years ago, then he would have arrived at and made, on his own, this same suggestion and conclusion that I'm now making regarding reelection inaugurations.

But apart from being arguably the most left-wing president in American history, what precisely about Obama from Day One has ever been new, transcending, transformational, original or different than any other garden-variety slimeball democrat party or gop-er politician or president whom we've seen before? I'd submit: Absolutely Nothing.

Leftists Now Looking to Ban Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" For Its Myriad Gun References? Now THAT's Going Just a Bit Too Far...



"Steve walks warily down the street,
With the brim pulled way down low.
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet,
Machine guns ready to go...
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat.
[CHORUS]
Another one bites the dust. Another one bites the dust.
And another one gone, and another one gone,
Another one bites the dust.
Hey, I'm gonna get you too.
Another one bites the dust!"

But let's calm down now: First off, the above headline is totally fabricated on my part. But would you really find it all that surprising these days, at this moment, if the leftists did try to lead a boycott or ban against such a song (perhaps with even some right-winger zealots joining them)? Methinks not...

Not when you have Obama running around like some sort of Dictator Light and threatening to foist more than twenty different executive orders upon us with "gun control" restraints.

On the substance of a fair amount of what Obama and the leftists 20 percenters propose on gun control, I really can't say I would have much of a problem...

But that's hardly the point: American presidents don't accomplish this sort of stuff with a slew of executive orders, which smacks of an authoritarian regime.

Just imagine if that idiot W Bush had tried to push at us a right-winger version of immigration reform by use of a couple dozen executive orders: The leftists would've been rioting in the damn streets! Hypocrites.

But enough already about "gun control," which is way down on my list of issues of pressing importance. Suffice it say, leftists: Just keep your damn slimy hands off my Freddie Mercury!

Right-Wingers, Leftists Conjure Up Nazis and Stalin in "Gun Control" Debate Over Overbearing Extremist Obama Versus Overbearing Extremist NRA...


Nazis and Stalin, uh? (Exemplar links below). And people wonder why I don't want any of these creeps on either extreme hanging around my "Rager's" saloon (as referenced Wednesday) and stinkin' up the joint with their rancid rhethoric and foul breath.

Regardless, after this week's Hitler/Stalin blasts, I'm now officially raising Rager's leftist/right-winger cover charge to TWENTY bucks at my joint just to get in the front door.

And just keep it up, you partisan fringe freaks, you: You're gonna price your sorry slimeball asses right out my joint, you skunks!

"Conservative Restaurateur Charges Liberals $1 Surcharge on Drinks": Now THAT's an Idea! But What's Good for the Goofs Is Also Good for the Right-Wingers...




Story's from Utah (link below). I start by noting that the C-Word and the L-Word above are in quotes. I never use those words myself, since they're the terms the leftists and right-wingers have chosen for themselves, and they don't deserve the respect of being called their self-chosen monikers. But I digress...

This whole surcharge-on-the-leftists idea, I must admit, ain't half-bad. To set the bar:  Ya know, I've always wanted my own joint. I've heard before that there's nothing sweeter than sipping a drink inside a joint you can call your own. I'd call it "Rager's".

And if Rager's ever comes to fruition, I'm gonna borrow this Utah slimeball's idea -- although with an Independent twist: I think I'll institute a $10 buck per head cover charge for all loony leftist 20 percenters and all deranged right-wingers!

After all, I really don't want any of those partisan freaks near my joint, and it would be my right to slap their loudmouthed, group-thinkin' asses with a nice fat tax (leftists should appreciate that) for the honor of paying me to get f*cked up in my presence, with me there in person.

And as I borrow this Utah idea: Just look at this open-minded Independent over here! Willing to listen to and adopt ideas from all sides. Such a novel concept.

"White House Readies 19 Executive Orders On Guns"; Right-Wingers Go Ape-Shit! Do We Even Have a National Debt Anymore?


'Course we do -- A big, stifling $16 trillion of it, and ever-growing.  Between talkin' about the hot broads and stupid crimes, I ain't gonna shut up about it.  And no manner of incessant focus on gun control, gay marriage, legalizing marijuana, free birth control and other such much-lower on the pecking order issues from these leftists and right-wingers is ever gonna stop me from talking about our terrible national debt and annual budget deficits.  Sorry Slimes.

Rectory? Damn Near Killed Him! Priest Found Gagged & Handcuffed, Tells Cops He Was Just "Playing" Around. Right!


Bet the cops don't get too many 911 calls quite like this one (link below). Catholic parson Tom Donovan of Springfield, Illinois (pic immediately above) got on the 911 blower recently to tell the dispatcher, "I'm going to need help getting out before this becomes a medical emergency!"  But get out of what, you might ask...

Seems father was stuck in the ol' rectory (his digs) and bound up but good with a pair of handcuffs and a gag over his piehole. And that's exactly how cops found the playful preacher once they arrived.

Cops cut the clergyman loose but naturally had a few questions.  Like how in the hell this Holy Joe came to find himself all tied up worse than Marsellus and Butch in the pawn shop backroom (pic at the top)...

"I was playing with them," claimed the frightened friar in reference to said cuffs and gag, and with no other soul anywhere in sight around the joint.

Yeah I bet! He was just goofing around, perfecting his prison hack skills right there in the living room! I'm sure NO ONE ELSE was around or had anything to do with this putrid padre predicament!

Meantime, this red-faced reverend is reportedly now on a "leave of absence" from the church. Which doesn't sound like much of a changeup: Methinks this kooky cleric's not exactly all the way there even when he is in the house.

Fair & Balanced Bazooms in the Newsroom:
"TV News Broadcast Shows Porn Movie in the Background for TEN Minutes"!


The offending and highly offensive news broadcast reportedly comes from Sweden (link below).  It's difficult to tell from the photo above precisely which porno was being shown to the audience at home, but since we're talking about a TV news program, I'm guessing it was one of these:
  • Barely Biased: News Floozies Bang It Both Ways

  • Balling for Whore Bun Control

  • Cocked for the C-Block

  • Fat News Chicks 4: Her Details Were Stretchy

  • Hammerin' Me Under Camera Three

  • HARDBALLS with Stiff Ass-Moves

  • Hit the Widow on the Set

  • Late-Breaking Nudes 9: Bustin' the News Hole

  • That's Not My Finger on Your Prompter

  • The O'Reilly Packed-Her

"On the Dole & Watchin' the Pole": Welfare Recipients Get Their Party On in a BIG WAY in the Big Apple Using Their Debit Cards! Maybe I Should Call Quits-Ville on My Job & Just Join the Party?


A New York Post exclusive story this week (link below) reveals local welfare recipients using their debit cards to live it up like it was still 1999 or something in the City That Never Sleeps!  A Post investigation revealed such prudent and proper welfare debit card uses as:

(1) Hittin' the neighborhood bar (Hanks Saloon was cited) for a deserving evening of boozin' it up on the public's dime; (2) Crashin' the local porn shop (e.g., Blue Door Video) consistent with our 5th and 14th Amendment rights to fleece the peeps while disciplining the monkey; (3) Hittin' up the corner liquor store (Drinks Galore'll work) since the party must always go on after those other joints close up; (4) Smokin' and Tokin' like a fish with tobacco store product (since one can't have a real party 'out some bona fide smokes! -- Shisha International fits the description, BTW); and, for a regular coup de grace, (5) Rollin' into the local strip joint to drop some dolla' on the ol' tittie dancers (Club Heat works only too well)!

May I ask anyone reading this?:  WTF am I doing over here working a damn real job?!?  When I could be out there with the bums giving a whole new meaning to the slightly altered phrase, "PARTY SLIME."  But here comes the point that I tend to reach most every evening when my damn pesky Middle American Anachronism side rears its ugly head: I just can't join the tramps and slugs who are having so much fun in Metropolis with their paws in the public kitty:  I gots to work in the morning -- and, besides, my shit pays so much better!

OH MY! But Kids -- I Don't Care How Hot this Broad Is: Never Get Plastic Surgery, Fake Boobs or Bear Children When You're a Damn Teenager!



That's "Teen Mom" Farrah Abraham, showing off her "post-surgery bikini body" while sashaying around the beach this week with 3-year-old daughter Sophia.  It seems that Teen Mom a few months back dropped 16 grand and went under the knife for a chin-and-schnoz job (link below)...

That particular piece of plastic work follows an earlier procedure where this hot little number added a big pair of fake cans to her natural upside.

But to all the kids out there:  Don't do that shit. Not unless you're a moron. But if you wanna toss away being a kid and become an adult before your time: Then by all means, knock or get knocked up in your teen years.

Wanna look like a circus freak even before you're even old enough to take a drink?  Then for sure, buy a big fake rack or turn your mug over to Senor Sawbones.

Trust me, while you can try blaming it all on Bush or something, these things are your decisions.  Make the right ones. Unlike the Teen Mom.

Giving America the Fiscal Stiff: "Cliff Deal" Accomplishes Basically Nothing in Terms of Reining in the Massive Federal Budget Deficit and the Stifling National Debt...


Thanks for nothing, as usual, democrat party and gop-ers. Nothing says fiscal responsibility quite like no spending cuts to combat out-of-control, unsustainable spending.

And BTW, raising taxes on anyone in poor economic times of anemic growth:  Suave!  That'll get the ol' economy up 'n roaring!  Idiots.

From the top:  (1) "I'm a Celebrity" star Helen Flanagan is "still looking her breast after Christmas"; (2) glamour model turned bodybuilder Jodie Marsh offers a "merry cleavage treat for beach boys"; (3) Caprice Bourret is joining the new celebrity diving show, "Splash!", but is "terrified of hurting her boobs"; (4) Brandy Norwood's gettin' hitched and headed to the Hawaiian beaches to celebrate; and (5) "reality starlet" Josie Goldberg "spills out of her halter top" at Miami Beach.

Almost made me forget there for a second.  Almost.

UN-intendo: "Family Finds Hardcore Porn on 5-Year-Old's Christmas Gift" -- a Nintendo 3DS! Now, THAT Combination Sure Conjures Up Some Sick Imagery...


This story (link below) is proof positive that some things should never be mixed. American politicians and decent human beings. Burning smokes and Alabama shithouses. Kim Kardashian and talent competitions.  And never: The video game and porn industries.

I just think of some of the hottest video game releases of 2012: Games like Analogue: A Hate Story, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, Dragon's Dogma, Kid Icarus: Uprising, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater, Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack, and Thomas Was Alone...

Can you just imagine the rotten ruckus that the purveyors of porn might raise if they got their sticky little paws on some of those titles?  One can just ponder the carnal carnage:
  •  Anal-Log: A Hole Story

  • Ass Affect Me

  • Anal Fanny-See XXX

  • Call of Booty: Back Ops Screw

  • Dragon's Log(in)Ma

  • Kid Stick-Er-Ass: Uprising

  • Kingdongs of Amateur: Erectioning

  • Meet My Rear: Solid Snake In-Her

  • Tails From Space: Mutant Boobs And Racks

  • Thomas Was a Load
Now that's just sick. It's sick. We don't need that sort of thing around here.

Full Metal STICK-IT -- We'll Do Whatever the Hell We Want! Leftist NBC News Allegedly Ignores Cop Warning Not to Possess Illegal Gun Magazine...


The incident occurred on NBC's "Meet the Left" over the weekend, when the completely partial, leftist "moderator" David Gregory brandished an apparently illegally obtained 30-round gun magazine after DC cops say they told NBC that possessing and showing the gun on air would be illegal...

Must be nice to be a leftist 20 percenter. Say anything you want. Get away with it. Do just about anything you want. Usually get a way with it...

Law Schmaw -- do as you say, and not as you do, right leftists? And alas, that seems to be a big strain of the leftist world view. For example, just look at the so-called "occupy movement" and the anarchist roots behind it, and don't even get me started on the leftists' absolute "civility" hypocrisy.  You see, to the leftists, things like laws, rules and principles apply to everyone but them.

And a final note, leftists: I don't want to hear word one from you kooks about this being some sort of journalistic issue. This illegal magazine was used as no more than a damn prop during Gregory's interview of some deranged right-winger NRA freak...

Plus, regardless, you simply have no right of expression or press that permits you to possess and parade around illegal contraband. So spare me that bullshit in advance, please, leftists. Use your time more wisely -- maybe go commit some more crimes or something.

No Country for Dart Fans Who Look Like Jesus: "Christ Lookalike" Gets Tossed from British Darts Tournament!



And right before Christmas!  No, this wasn't some public school event in the States, but instead a hugely attended and privately sponsored "darts tournament" in the UK...

And while it's not clear whether 33-year-old Nathan Grindal (a spectator at the event; pictured at top) intentionally sported his bushy divine get-up in order to distract the two championship round competitors, event staff said that was irrelevant...

That's since once the darts tournament crowd of 4,500 people burst into "raucous" chants of "Jesus! Jesus!", event organizers had heard and seen enough (link below), putting a bullseye on the joint's exits with this Fake Almighty's name written all over it.

But even this phoney Son of God's ejection hasn't stopped tempers from darting over the top.  Grindal is said to be "quite cross" over his treatment (Elton John over there!), while tournament champion Phil Taylor apparently wants a piece of the Lord:

"If I ever see Jesus [Grindal] again, I'll crucify him myself," this scrooge Taylor allegedly pledged.  Some folks just can't get into the Reason for the Season.

BROAD BLOTTER (Inaugural Edition): Coco Does Vegas; Kerry Defends Django; & Paz Poses in Playboy!



I'd like to introduce right now a new segment into TIR, as I give you my first dose of the "Broad Blotter" -- focusing on 2, 3 or more hot broads and providing an update on them and their ample assets...

This feature may (or may not) appear in this space from time to time (translation: when I gots nothing else or better to write about), but here goes the premiere installment (links at bottom):

1. Apparently leaving behind her recent controversy that saw her caught in a slew of "racy photos" with a rapper (AP.9) who's not her husband (Ice-T), bountifully bosomed "glamour model" Coco Austin has reportedly taken only too well to the leading role in a Vegas run of the show "Peepshow." No word whether Coco's "performance" involves much of anything other than her just strutting around and shaking her big bazooms, but does it really matter?

2. Gorgeous actress Kerry Washington has shown up as the cover girl on the new "Uptown Girl," defending in an interview her choice to portray a 19th Century American slave from Africa in Quentin Tarantino's new picture, Django Unchained.  I best know this hot little number Kerry from her lead role on ABC's "Scandal" -- although I do wish she and the other characters on that show would stop talking so damn fast all the time! I'm a Middle American anachronism -- you must talk slow to me.

3. "Boardwalk Empire" star and bona fide wildchild Paz De La Huerta is taking it all off for the January/February edition of "Playboy." The third season of "Boardwalk" just wrapped up, and while S3 benefitted enormously from the introduction of hilariously psychotic mafioso character Gyp Rosetti (actor Bobby Cannavale), it also suffered from the absence of Paz -- a dame who's not only extremely hot, but also (as a special added attraction) is half deranged, both on the show and in real life. BTW, is that seaweed tuft atop her upper melon actually real?

"Where Have You Been?" Journalism Actually Breaks Out at White House Press Conference, as ABC Reporter (Obviously Having Read this Blog) Asks Obama Tough Question on Gun Control...


ABC News White House correspondent Jake Tapper won't be getting any Christmas cards from Barry and Michelle this year. For the last question at Obama's Wednesday "press conference," Tapper basically asked Obama why he's yakking up gun control now after basically never saying or doing shit about the issue until the Sandy Hook massacre occurred...

"Where have you been?", Tapper had the unmitigated gall to ask His Majesty. Can't have that. Wonder how long before either the White House or Tapper's employer puts the ol' kibosh on Tapper's current gig?

Obama, obviously taken aback and irritated by receiving a legitimate question from the press corps, had little in retort except to spout a variation of his tired old "we inherited this mess" talking point. Smooth!

Even if Tapper is allowed to keep his position, ABC should at least ban him from reading this blog -- where one of my immediate reactions to the Connecticut massacre was to question why leftists remain largely silent on gun control almost all the time except when some horrific mass murder occurs at the hands of a gunman.

So might as well have been Rager instead of Tapper asking that question. Regardless: B-U-S-T-E-D, Obama!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/19/jake-tapper-obama-guns_n_2333532.html?utm_hp_ref=media

[Late Thursday Postscript:  Looks like ABC won't get a chance to lower the boom on Tapper, since the news came out late today that he's jumping to CNN!  How ironic (or who knows, maybe not such a coincidence) that he'd make national news for sending a rare tough question Obama's way the day before he jumped ship to a new network.  Talk about goin' out with a BANG!]

AFTER Spending Last Weekend Worrying My Head Off, I'm Just NOW Seeing Where the Vatican Has Ordained that the World Will, In Fact, NOT End this Friday. Gee, Thanks for Nothin', Pope!


Talk about end of days late and a dollar short (link below) -- and this one has much more import than a damn tardy burger and mixed drink offering.  Where was Pope with this "no Mayan apocalypse" stuff when I and millions worldwide could've actually used it?  Before loading up on 15 giant salsa vats at Sam's Club...

Before clearing out Dirty Don's Bargain Center (Raytown, Missouri) of every single over-sized can of Campbell's Vegetable Soup on the joint's shelves...

Before telling the Aldi's at 95th and Antioch that if they gots an extra pallet of Spaghetti Rings, then I'll haul the damn thing away and give 'em 90 cents on the dollar (moving pallets without a forklift is a real bitch, BTW).

Or, before buying an old heap off that crazy coot Butch down at the junkyard to use for spare auto parts for my "bug out"...

A weekend wrecked (no pun intended). And a fine how-do-ya-do to start my work week, to boot.  Anyone need a 1982 Jeep CJ-5 (sans the U-joint, rear axle, and a few other things)?
