Announcing ApologiesAccepted.com, which styles itself the world's answer to SorryEverybody.com, featuring words of forgiveness from Bush-haters in Holland, Canada, South Korea, Australia and other countries. Somehow this crowd doesn't seem quite as pathetic as the SorryEverybody folks, though it may be that we judge foreigners by a lower standard. Actually, there's at least one dissenting photo, showing the top half of some guy's head with the following message beneath:
What actually makes Kerry so much better than Bush? We know about Bush now, and we know, what to expect. The majority of the American people has made their decision and I accept that. Without criticizing the people who voted for Bush. So, to me, this site looks like a bad loser site!

Two others we liked were an illiterate communist and a bunny with a pancake on its head.

And yes, I've been around long enough to know what a "ping" is, what "hugh" means, about the shower reference, and that moose, cheese and sister thing.
"Oh, the hugh manatee" was my favorite, BTW.
Why isn't this in Breaking News???
The bunny with a pancake on its head (and the monkey humping a robot) are posted in response to threads that make no sense.
The captions on the graphics say, "I have no idea what you're talking about, so here's a bunny with a pancake on its head," and, "This thread makes no sense, so here's a picture of a monkey humping a robot."
It's just silliness responding to silliness.
Thanks so much! Perfect explanation. I love my FRriends.

Poke the bunny but be warned he does bite.
Why isn't this in Breaking News???
Oops, sorry, guess I slipped up.
Huh? Surely you jest.
Rather Suspicious
Yesterday's New York Times published this letter to the editor from Kathleen Davidman of New York:We will all mourn when Dan Rather steps down from the "CBS Evening News" in March. He has been the most exciting, informed anchor and reporter since the 1960's, when I first remember seeing him.Well, we admire a good prank as much as anyone. Congratulations to Davidman for gulling the Times' editors into publishing such an implausible letter.
So very handsome and energetic, a bit Li'l Abnerlike, he seemed an obvious star from the beginning. His passionate coverage at the political conventions (I saw him roughed up at one) and his way of getting the news, sometimes visibly and humanly feeling it, were unique. . . .
I'll miss Mr. Rather's principled stands on issues like the eulogies for American service members killed in Iraq. That his popularity waned over the years shows, if we needed any directive, how poor taste has become dominant.
LOL
Yes, too bad the NYT doesnt' have a Barf Alert (of course, if they did, they'd have to put it next to almost every letter and article.
I enjoy the Best of the Web - read it almost every day. James Taranto and the others compiling it have a great sense of humor (IMHO).
Mmmmm Pancacks
I have no idea what you're talking about....
So, here's a Bunny with a Pancake on its head
Click the Pic
Bump for later.
Ecckkkhhh.
I'll just say that from the waist down, this guy will never be confused with Cheney. (sorry, couldn't resist!)
I prefer the kitty-on-Spidey action to the monkey-robot love.
Now we'll keep our reputation as being the most cutting-edge news source in.... the world.
Good point! It is a rather androgenous moonbat upon further inspection.
Monkey raised without a mom. Sad. Cat humping Spidey...funny...cat accidentally shaved into humiliation...priceless.
The meaning comes when you decode the letters with your secret VRWC decoder ring.
the bunny's real name is Nancy Quetar.
The bunny pic comes from a website of a guy in Japan. He discovered his rabbit had an uncanny ability to balance objects on its head, and took many photos of the rabbit posing with various foreign objects perched on it's head and posted them to his web site. Somebody stumbled upon the pic, and thought it was so funny that they began passing around the URL of the pancake/rabbit pic, and the rest is history.
For the record, the rabbit's name was "Oolong," and appears to be a Dutch breed, and Oolong went to the happy no-hunting grounds a few years ago after a long (by rabbit standards) life with his master in Japan.
"And now you know the rest of the story...."

So here is a cheese eating surrender monkey
I like yours better.
This image is from a classic experiment conducted by Harry Harlow in 1958 on the subject of love, maternal bonding and socialization of infant monkeys.
The monkeys were given two surrogate mothers to bond with: a wire monkey which held a food source, and a cloth-covered surrogate without food. The young monkeys fed from the wire surrogate, but clung to the cloth-covered surrogate for comfort.
The experiment was important for a number of reasons, not the least of which was that it provided evidence that maternal bonding and nurturing is essential for the emotional health of the infant. Without this interaction, the infant monkeys became social misfits.
For those interested, you can read more about this experiment at: The Psychology of Love
I know that... the experiment is actually a family joke. My Mom was very skinny when I was a kid, and she called herself "The Wire Mother." Tells you what my family's sense of humor is like, probably why I fit in here. :)
Thank you.
Oh, that is horrible! Poor kitty! He's fixin' to crawl under a rock and die.
LOL......I think Dale on King of the Hill tried the same failed experiment with cockroaches !
Stay safe ........:o)
It's a baby rhesus holding on to his man-made surrogate mother. The pic is taken from the lab of Dr. Harry Harlow who studied the role of warm, comforting (terry cloth covered) mothers vs hard cold steel, but milk-providing wire mothers.
That is classic!
Message to the rabbit:
You suck inferior fluff vermin!
That was the baby monkey clinging to a monkey mother doll since it was deprived of its real mother monkey. The experiment is probably illegal these days.
One day ALL children will be raised that way when the State rules everything.
The state already rules everything. Yet nothing.
I've searched recent Zot threads (I know it was posted in the last week), does anyone have the shot of the bunny with the Rachel Corrie pancake on its head?
Hang in there--this is a bookmark biump so I can send it to you -- the url is on my other computer
