If I get the job, I will fight for gender equality.

And here I was thinking it was just part of Obama’s evil master plan to get us all ready for mandatory gay marriage.

I am already affected. Symptoms include salty, watery discharge from my eyes, involuntary spasms of the diaphragm and continuous emition of inarticulate noises. They’ve been occurring intermittently since yesterday. All that despite the fact that I’m located far, far east of NY.

Back to unimitable¹ \*\*Advisory\*\*\*\*², imho the clue here is [42](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Answer_to_Life,_the_Universe,_and_Everything#Answer_to_the_Ultimate_Question_of_Life.2C_the_Universe.2C_and_Everything_.2842.29). And, is it just a coincidence that replies by [MsRobyn](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=12100555#post12100555) and [Cicero](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=12104943#post12104943) above were posted at exactly 42 minutes past? Eh? Eh?

Or is it yet another example of the evil works of _thoes who might want to do harm and get away with it_. My thoes are twitching meaningfully.

¹ Please note that the Washington Post one has no evil tounges, we were uniquely chosen for those. There is a possibility, though, that the follow up will go to yet another message board.  
² Apart from the missing footnote for \*\*, there is also a question of what happened to \* ?

Obviously he’s censoring himself - which is prudent, given the nature of his dire warning about the Jackbooted Naked Picture Showers - and it’s really meant to be Advisoryou, because you may be in one of those naked pictures! Few people know that since B. Hussein Obama came into office there has been a special agency formed and their only job is to go around taking naked pictures of grown men! Then they give those pictures to other grown men (some will call them perverts, but don’t you believe that for a minute), and then give those same grown men (the “perverts”, not the naked ones) badges, and then they are sent across half the country to show those pictures to others. Billions of dollars have been spent calculating the perfect spread of naked pictures to ensure that no man is ever shown his own naked picture.

West of Iowa, well, that’s still the wild west. We just cut out the middle man and show each other naked pictures of ourselves.

So, when are the displayers of naked man pictures coming to California? And what restaurants are they visiting? 'Cause I haven’t seen a naked man in a long time. ☹

I have. And I must say, those could turn into killing stations. I certainly wanted to kill people when I worked there…

Yes, but there’s always the absence of the silver tounged, which causes killing stations to cease banana whoopie-cushion fluid wombat. Because of the naked pictures.

Oh, there was definitely nudity… prolly some pictures of it, too. And the cook I dated was for sure “silver tongued” … but yeah, you got me on the whoopee-cushion fluid wombats. No wombats.
