Me too Morgyn. Those kind of ads just irritate the heck out of me. Just tell it to me straight without all that mush.
Well, they arrested Billy, we all feel a little safer, right?
Okay, I admit I miss the little twerp. I liked checking USA Today’s growing, often updated roster of the newly-pinched, wondering when or if Billy (real name Josiah Kenyon, which just doesn’t match his little-boy-in-a-man’s-body sparkle, to me Billy’s a better fit) will join that Sad Patriot Felon confederation. (Interesting sidelight, reading over the Justice Department’s complaint against Kenyon, it turns out the FBI knew his identity three days after the riot. Didn’t I tell you those guys don’t let you see them coming?)
I need a new Billy to fill the void. And you can help! Vote for your favorite nominee below (click to enlarge). One with the most votes gets a new Straight Dope Message Board thread, all to his or her self.
(Note: Photographs are of unidentified BOFOs (Be On the lookout Fors) taken from online sources. One photograph which does not depict an actual rioter has been inserted as a control.)
My vote is for 3. Shifty-eyed mother trucker.
Aye; #3 just looks suspicious.
#1 looks like he’s being forced to sing a power ballad.
12 looks like the type of person who can be talked into doing massive amounts of stupid just so he can be part of the gang. He’s also got the “press conference in his future” look.
Huh.
#10.
Never would have expected it of Anjelica Huston.
#8
Beards like that demand incarceration.
OK, so what is the story behind the cat?
Eliminate 2, 8, and 14 as people who are going to out themselves by bragging about their actions somewhere traceable.
Was he a good man? A kind man? Bullshit, man!
The cat is the control. I guess it’s Hatchie’s.
“Suspect Number 2, please sing the chorus to ‘Freebird’.”
“'Cause I’m freeeeee…”
“That’s him.”
The cat’s the smartest one of the bunch.
What is it with the beards anyway? All these uber-right-wing nutcases have wild beards. You’d think the last thing they’d want is to all look like Muslims. Is it just so they can distinguish themselves from the females? How do they tell themselves apart from the females with wild beards? It’s bound to become a common problem.
And does NOT smear poop on the walls. Unlike Trump supporters, who smear their own shit on walls.
It attracts the flies away from their hair.
I believe that’s Tom Petty.
And freedom tastes of reality.
Hey, thanks to everyone who voted. The tallies are in and have been certified. However, it appears that there was Widespread Voter Fraud, so I am declaring #4 to be the winner. Congratulations.
I will start a new thread devoted to tracking her (I think it’s a her) and taking bets on the when and where of her eventual arrest; the question remains where should I put it? Could be here in the Pit, but I’m thinking it might fit better in Mundane Pointless, or maybe make a game out of it like Celebrity Death Pool, in which case it goes in the Game Room. Or is that making light of a serious topic? What do you think?
In any case, I am calling our anonymous vaping Deplorable “Little Greenie” to match her complexion. Go Little Greenie!
I think the fairest way to handle the last election is for each person who believes he/she/they have won to just come out and say it! Why stand on formalities like ballots and counting and shit like that. This is Murrica and I should be able to exercise my free-dumb of speech and declare myself to be the president of these states (united or disunited, depending on your pov).
For myself, I don’t want to be president. I’d like to be a Supreme Court justice so I can wear those cute lace collars with my judicial robes like RBG did. So be it – it is done!
