Tired ... So Very Tired

In addition to being the Silly Season in politics, it is also the Silly Season at work. Everyone has the mid-semester blahs - well, almost everyone.

The administration is merrily and energetically raining crap down on everyone's head. We had another total-waste-of-time committee meeting this a.m. and for the first time I saw other faculty members' level of frustration rise to almost match my own. (Granted, I have a very low tolerance for bullshit - especially the superstrength bullshit that goes on in academia. It makes regular corporate bullshit look positively innocuous by comparison.). In any event, this was the closest I've ever seen a group of people come to outright mutiny.

Couple that with all the revelations about the murders of U.S. citizens in Libya (samples here and here) and I'm tired, frustrated, pissed off, and in no mood to put with any political correctness bullshit.

So in that spirit, here's the Top Ten Reasons that you might be a Muslim. (H/T Boned Jello)

10. You might be a muslim if you grow poppies and refine heroin for a living, but you have a moral objection to liquor.

9. You might be a muslim if you own a $3,000 machine gun and $5,000 rocket launcher and ammo, but you can't afford shoes.

8. You might be a muslim if you have more wives than teeth.

7. You might be a muslim if you wipe your butt with your bare hand, but consider bacon and pork unclean.

6. You might be a muslim if you think vests come in two styles: bullet-proof and suicide.

5. You might be a muslim if you can't think of anyone you haven't declared Jihad against.

4. You might be a muslim if you consider television dangerous, but routinely carry explosives in your clothing.

3. You might be a muslim if you were amazed to discover that cell phones have uses other than setting off roadside bombs.

2. You might be a muslim if you have nothing against women and think every man should own at least four.

1. You might be a muslim if your cousin is president of the United States.

How do you hide your wives and daughters in the Deep Dark Middle East? (See Pic Above, no one will notice)
How do you hide your wives in the Rest of the World? (Dress them like all the others, no one will notice)
How do you make your wives and daughters stand out like Jihadists and fools in the Middle East? (ahhh.. I'm really not sure)
How do you make your wives and daughters stand out like Jihadists AND fools in the West? (See Pic above)

There's something very stupid about Deep Dark Middle East "Cover Everything" costumes on women and girls (if that's what they really are) in the rest of the World. It makes them STAND OUT like they weren't wearing anything at all. STUPID!

Pascvaks - "There's something very stupid about Deep Dark Middle East "Cover Everything" costumes"

There's something stupid about lots of things in the Middle East...
