Thanks for helping ruin the world, Ogolfer.
Wow is that purporting to be outhouse wisdom, outhouse humor or just ordinary, outhouse stupid.
For a good time call Ben

Employees must wash hands
Actually it's what the sign says.....but hardly any do. Plan accordingly.
You read it on ZH or WSJ......it's cold and impersonal drivel.
But you read it in an outhouse......and it just hits home.
Kudos to the author.....cause not many are inspired above the typical dick joke in the john. If we can find him......he should be awarded the next Nobel Prize.....just so we finally show what it's worth.
It says "wash hands"? What language is that? I thought it was a Koala Kare diaper changing table.
For some backdoorsex call RATSO 713-666-1313
For currency swapping press 1)
For taxpayer domination press 2)
For keynsian fetish games press 3)
For gay midget rimming call back and ask for Ben
Ratso's Rules at Sutters state that..."He who hesitates, masterbates"
Your handle is appropriate.
"Outhouse stupid" may be more profound than MSM intelligence.

Hey I just found out there's still time to nominate "Tyler Durden" for the Nobel Prize in Economics...BUT WE HAVE TO HURRY! It ends on the 9th of October people! WE NEED TO GET MOVING ON THIS PRONTO!
My plan is to post "Tyler Durden for Nobel Prize in Economics" forms on the bathroom stalls of my various "work stops" to "get the word out." I figured if we all did it maybe we could split the prize money cuz "who can say no to the bathroom stall indicator"?!!
Good idea. We're going to have to take up a collection. Can somebody call Soros and ask him what he paid for Barry's Prize?
Just created Tyler ZH Durden for Nobel Prize in Economics page on Facebook, please vote!

Please read this. Surreal?
politicians buy votes, banksters buy force.
that's why nothing trickles down. Fed gives it to primary dealers and dealers funnel it to police union thugs and military expeditions of imperialism. Politicians use the remaining to build fancy schools using contruction company their relative owns. By the time money comes down to the teachers, it is just some promise in terms of pension.
Too many middle men in this society. Even banksters have execs stealing all the bonuses and the 20 something minions are the ones who work 100 hour weeks for $40k bonus which gets taxed at 50%, and $20k goes to pay for studio rathole in manhattan.
Spot on.
It's good to be King......

New York City Police Foundation — New YorkJPMorgan Chase recently donated an unprecedented $4.6 million to the New York City Police Foundation. The gift was the largest in the history of the foundation and will enable the New York City Police Department to strengthen security in the Big Apple. The money will pay for 1,000 new patrol car laptops, as well as security monitoring software in the NYPD's main data center.
New York City Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly sent CEO and Chairman Jamie Dimon a note expressing "profound gratitude" for the company's donation.
"These officers put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe," Dimon said. "We're incredibly proud to help them build this program and let them know how much we value their hard work."
***************************************************************************************************************
two days later after this money changed hands.. New Yorks Finest had enough extra money on hand to arrest 700 people.
that was of course after they directed the 700 people onto a street.. so that they could have something to arrest them for.
Remember when the Squid lauched a charitable trust to make a pretence of assuaging their guilt about gargantuan bonuses...
Has anyone seen who they were gracious enough to gift money to?
Presented without comment, the actual numbers

OK, here's a comment anyway. Alan Greenspan claimed that if we did not pass the Bush tax cuts that we would have budget surpluses are far as the eye could see -- or at least until Social Security had to start cashing in some of the special Treasury debt that the large Social Security surplus forced them to buy. Moreover, Greenspan though the surpluses were bad because they would lead to unemployed bond traders at Goldman Sachs. People should be reminded of this every day.

Upvote!
Hard to see but I think I can read 'hope and change was here'?
Oh no! That's my girlfriend's phone number written on the wall.
The unfortunate part of that is, she wrote it herself...
She said she was tired of all that Greek-style luvin', Zorba (wink, wink). So I gave her the old high hard one right in the kitty.
She said, "you're the best, Sunshine."
You rooted her cat? you are some sick puppy, strange customs you merikans....!

Your girlfriend and my wife have the same phone number. There must be a mistake!

Ah, the pinnacle of record keeping, the modern Dead Sea Scrolls.
Cute. One minor point: Congress spends the money, not presidents.
Any other mind numbing insights you care to share with us?
Minor point, indeed, This is one of those silly statements which you hear repeated on talk radio all the time in recent years. It is, of course, nonsense, and was largely forwarded by Republicans hoping to alleviate Reagan and the Bushes from the consequences of their irresponsbile spending. The truth, which is known by any person with a sixth grade knowledge of Article I, is that with the exception of the extremely few appropriations measures on which a veto was overridden, Presidents signed every single one of those deficit creating spending bills. And the supermajority of those spending bills have been funded at amounts LESS THAN the amounts requested by Presidents in their budget submissions. Sorry to ruin the partisan blamefest. Presidents are just as guilty as Congress. Republicans. Democrats. All suck and are all to blame.
A Budding, Lobyist?

Oh that is RICH!

That tile is pretty damn white. I think it's a photo set up at the ZH executive terlets.
More likely the women's executive terlets. They kinda rule the roost here.
Basically, every president doubles the debt.
Or putting differently, every president wastes as much as all the others combined before him.
Nice to see the primordial association between feces and money taken literally on the Koala Bear Kare surfaces of Kentucky.
Koalas are not bears - they are marsupials!
Is Koala Bear Care the first phase of Obamacare?
ROTFL!!!...no the last step, thats when the bear gets fed ;-)
LOL for me as well, green!
No, it's the 'change' part of 'hope and change'.
Problem is, last time I tried to climb up on one of those things, it broke. Spoiled the whole thing for me.
The association of Mr "Hope and Change" and his promises and a fully loaded diaper is quite appropiate.
At least that diaper changing station in the men's room found a useful purpose.
That was a fantastic remark! Ya freaking polish hand clown! Keep up the good work!
It's amazing how things are taken , out of context!

Mine: This wall has been painted in vain; The bathroom bard hath struck again.
Most likely (I would bet a monthly paycheck on it) a truckstop bathroom. Which is why the idiot combined the old Bush and Reagan's numbers. In fact the national debt number most dramatically jumped during Reagan's time. Which is why toothless truckers (many of whom choose the occupation because it's the only job you can make a half-decent salary with zero education) have no unions and get treated like a piece of crap by everyone they're employed by or meet.
The third graph (although all 4 graphs are educational) in this link should explain it to you Republican idiots who have been hypnotized by Tyler Durden the same way Rush Limbaugh hypnotizes your average homebound comatose American.

Wrong. Under the Obama administration the national debt has increased by $4trillion (actually a bit more now) On the day Obama took office the national debt was 10.63 billion and we are now just under 15 trillion
uz stoopid branewashed repulikans
BTW I know a guy with a CDL clearing over $120,000 a year at a NatGas company in PA (actually most people with a CDL in that field make that kind of money or more)
Of course, Mr. Da Bologna, that had nothing to do with TWO UNFUNDED WARS (whose idea???), A HUGE UNFUNDED PRESCRIPTION DRUG PLAN (who signed the bill into law???) AND A FINANCIAL CRISIS WHICH HAPPENED IN 2008 (who was President in 2008??).
Yes, once again Mr. Da Bologna, YOU would have us believe it's all "darky's fault". Your ability to squawk "billions" and "trillions" is kind of like a 5 year old screaming at the supermarket checkout line to Mommy for Twinkies. Effective.... but not requiring much intelligence.
Again, I must say you are a moron. THEY ARE ALL CROOKED! Both Bush's, Clinton, Obama......all the same. ALL THE SAME! Your kind of noise distracts from the real issues. Go find your friend Ed Shultz and suck your thumb, mental midget
a) never respond to that discredited, racist piece of shit
b) politicians don't make policy. their owners do. don't think yours is any different.
I haven't seen you in a couple days, I was kinda' hoping you died
Obama has spent 5 trillion fucking dollars in THREE years. He also served in the Senate under Bush and voted for the WS bailouts.
In addition he has been in office 3 years and has continued the wars you speak of (despite his campaign promises) AND expanded by bombing Pakistan and providing support to Libyan rebels.
And you want to talk about a prescription drug plan? How about the nationalization of the ENTIRE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. This will not only be very costly but at the same time will make your wait at the hospital longer and lower the quality of care. But maybe you're like Michael Moore and think it's your patriotic duty to wait in longer lines to be seen by a doctor.
Don't even get me started on his vacations (some of which carry the cost in the 200 MILLION DOLLARS A DAY FUNDED BY US TAX PAYERS...read up on his Indian vaca)
I could go on and on all night man I really could right a book about it but I'm just not gona'
Two points of correction. Obama's India trip was a boondoggle, not a vacation. It's a subtle difference, but it is a difference. Second, the $200 million per day, cited by the Minnesota Moonbat Michelle Bachman, was a number fabricated out of thin air by an Indian newspaper. The quote simply fit her needs, sort of like the HPV vaccine story. Obama did tote along a thousand people---staff and media---and they are costly, but nowhere near $200 million per day. Of course, considering what that trip accomplished, he might have been better off doing a video conference or just sending an email to PM Singh, but pageantry and imperial excess often resonates in India, though they are much better at it than a fast learning but fiscal excess neophyte.
On a side note, after our Nobel Prize winning war monger has served almost three years, I have finally begun to figure out the enigma that is BHO. While he has fallen short on most every promise he made, he did give many "change you can believe in". That change would be Mercury dimes and pre-1964 quarters. That accomplishment alone puts him high on the list of Greatest Presidents of the Last Fifty Years. The bar, after all, is set pretty low.
What I'm referring to has nothing to do with Michele Bachman. Here is a description of his visit. If I recall correctly there was an entire Naval fleet off the coast which the following touches on. This is all paid for by US tax payers (while we are in a depression) and he wants to raise taxes and increase the debt ceiling with carte blanche.
The tab for this little get-away will have to be in the millions of dollars as Air Force One, along with the always-present Air Force Fighter Squadron, and TWO additional “jumbo jets” are said to be descending on Mumbai, India in what has to be one of THE most expensive political junkets in U.S. history. They’ve booked over 700 rooms and everybody, including the President’s personal chef, will make the trip!
The Obamas will stay at the Taj Mahal Hotel, and his itinerary practically means Marine Drive will be shut for vehicular traffic on the day of the President’s visit, while buildings flanking it will be sanitised with security personnel manning them until Obama has left the place. Same would be the case with Obama’s visit to Mani Bhawan and Michelle going to Kamathipura.
Traffic on roads leading up to the highway will also be stopped. All buildings flanking the entire stretch will be sanitised. However, there is no threat from the snipers as the President will travel in a bullet-proof car with 4.5-inch thick sheets, which are impenetrable for any gun.”
To ensure fool-proof security, the President’s team has booked the entire the Taj Mahal Hotel, including 570 rooms, all banquets and restaurants. Since his security contingent and staff will comprise a huge number, 125 rooms at Taj President have also been booked, apart from 80 to 90 rooms each in Grand Hyatt and The Oberoi hotels. TheNCPA, where the President is expected to meet representatives from the business community, has also been entirely booked.
The officer said, “Obama’s contingent is huge. There are two jumbo jets coming along with Air Force One, which will be flanked by security jets. There will be 30 to 40 secret service agents, who will arrive before him. The President’s convoy has 45 cars, including the Lincoln Continental in which the President travels.”
Since Obama will stay in a hotel that is on sea front, elaborate coastal security arrangements have been made by the US Navy in consonance with the Indian Navy and the Coast Guard. “There will be US naval ships, along with Indian vessels, patrolling the sea till about 330-km from the shore. This is to negate the possibility of a missile being fired from a distance,” the officer said.
http://www.uncoverage.net/2010/10/next-obama-vacation-hangin-at-the-taj-mahal-600-hotel-rooms/
The trip was costly. No doubt about that. It also was not cost effective, though since this is government, those two words are never to be used in consecutively, this by Executive Order.
The genesis of the $200 million per day figure is as I noted. It was first written in an Indian newspaper (I was in India at the time, but I am certainly not the source of that figure). Some Bachman staffer apparently found the article and gave it to her. Others might have discovered it first, but she is the one who gave it airtime. She has shown a tendency to take convenient "facts" and use them without checking on their veracity.
Disclosure: I don't like her, and I don't like the Creationist mindset, because I think we as a species were wise to leave Medieval thought and superstition to the dustbin of history. I do not think "God told her" to get a degree in tax law. I do not remember in Genesis the second line, after "Let there be light", being "Make sure Michelle Bachman gets an advanced degree in IRS tax law". I could be wrong.
Hmmm, Ted K.
AttackWatch.com drone?
<<On the day Obama took office the national debt was 10.63 billion. . .>>
Wow! Only 10.63 billion! Who'd thunk it?
A more appropriate measure of increase would be a percentage one rather than a nominal one.
You know I meant trillion.
And why don't you lay out the percentages for us
Or,
In the first 19 months of the Obama administration, the federal debt held by the public increased by $2.5260 trillion, which is more than the cumulative total of the national debt held by the public that was amassed by all U.S. presidents from George Washington through Ronald Reagan.
http://www.cnsnews.com/node/72404
...we're now at about 5 trillion
If you meant "trillion", why not post "trillion"? You had plenty of time to correct your BS post.
Why don't you lay out the percentages? It appears you need the practice. I don't see that Obummer is much (or any) worse than the Bush and Reagan debacles. None of them are worth the powder to blow them to hell.
Because I made a fucking mistake. Jesus fucking Christ, accept it and move on. It's pretty obvious the national debt isn't 10 billion dollars.
Why don't I lay out the percentages? Well you're the one who brought it up so the onus is on you (plus I've already done it so I know) It's your stupid bullshit point, now back it up.
And yes, Obama is worse (not saying Bush was good) but Obama is definately worse.
What part of they're all crooks didn't get through your democrat pea brain. What a tool. AND ARE YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT TRUCKERS? Do you eat? Do you drive a car? Do you own anything? IT CAME ON A TRUCK DUMMY. We're lucky to have those whom are constantly squeezed with more and more regulation to deliver the goods to provide your cushy life. You are truly a moron.
Question: did Obamacare pay for your Obamabotomy?
And when those toothless, uneducated truckers stop trucking, what happens? You shrivel up.
If all the "Educated" Lawyers,Politicians, Journalists and bond brokers stop showing up, what happens? We cry in our beer. ARF!
Perhaps you should re-define education.You exist by the compassion of stronger people than yourself, this country has not been turned upside down YET, but I think it will be soon and then you will be screwed up the wazoo, as you should be.
There are three and one half million truck drivers in the USA today, if they stopped trucking there would be 8.5 million lining up to get their jobs. The way some of them drive and pull dangerous intentional bullshit on the highway I think we could hardly do worse than the current crop of fuckers on the road. Here in Oregon they have a 55 mph speed limit when other traffic is set to 65, itself so stupidly slow that the lack of good traffic flow kills more people than the danger of speed ever did, but the fuckwit truckers like to take their protest to the left lanes, all of them, line up side by side and take about forty minutes to pass another trucker going one one thousandth of a mile per hour slower thus pissing off absolutely everyone for about 60 miles. If it were up to me any trucker caught doing that would simply lose his/her license to ever again operate a commercial vehicle in Oregon. Though really the speed limit is pretty moronic as well. In a state the size of the United Kingdom 65 just does not do it.
There isn't enough room for truckers (something we rely on and need!) due to politicians. This is on them. They have more than enough money to build enough roads to reduce traffic but they don't. Too busy lighting cigars with $100 FRNs.

The condom machine has the eurobond debate on it.
Or whatever Tyler Durden and/or Tyler Durden crony could scribble as he's pissing a cocktail off on an I-95 exit in New York and say "look what I found in Kentucky". I doubt it would be something on derivatives, making the shorting of stocks or sovereigns in Europe illegal, or forcing large percentage haircuts on institutional bondholders. Why?? Because it strains credulity and doesn't fit with Durden's current Modus Operandi.
wrong again Tedster...isnt past your bedtime...
"The condom machine has the eurobond debate on it."
And if you wave your hand under the silver box you get a 2 minute speech by Obama.
I wonder what the Tampon dispenser said on it.
If the gov't is bleeding you dry, give one of these a try...
That koala bear has some serious camel toe.
Other than that I have no other concerns.
Is it me or the Koala is topless and has a fucking cameltoe?
Looks like thats an aftermarket cameltoe...
And Michelle Obama eyebrows. Scary.
Recently saw a condom machine that sold rubber pussies... Nice metaphor for Euroleaders, eh?
Perhaps I should listen to your { realistic}, life events? Conventional wisdom, is on your side...
If everyone would just stick to rubber pussies rather than the other more old fashioned variety, the world's problems would be solved within less than a century.
now that's smart thinking around the virtual sex theme. Nothing like a gang bang between rubber condoms and rubber pussies; while we of the true flesh look on in awe.
I think the most relevant point of that towel dispenser is that nothing in DC has changed for the better in my lifetime, but only gotten worse. We're becoming the police state I was warned about in my youth.
It kills me that nothing in DC has changed for the better in your lifetime. When being here and replying to you from time to time has made an enormous difference in my life.
You make me feel like I could tear off my armor and rush into the front lines of Octavian's legions like Brutus did in the mini-series "Rome" if it would make you happier. :-)
That's right! Thanks for the reminder! It completely slipped my mind that being here and responding to you is directly attributable to DC.
What was I thinking? Thank you Al Gore for these intertubes!

DREAD LADY (dread lord?). I read your curriculum vitae on line and I had no idea who you were. Threatening Jupiter, indeed. Getting the last lines in Percy Shelley's "Prometheus Unbound":
"Demogorgon appears and speaks to the Earth, the Moon, and "Ye kings of suns and stars, Dæmons and Gods,/ Ætherial Dominations, who possess/ Elysian, windless, fortunate abodes/ Beyond Heaven's constellated wilderness". Demogorgon speaks:
This is the day, which down the void abysm
At the Earth-born's spell yawns for Heaven's despotism,
And Conquest is dragged captive through the deep:
Love, from its awful throne of patient power
In the wise heart, from the last giddy hour
Of dead endurance, from the slippery, steep,
And narrow verge of crag-like agony, springs
And folds over the world its healing wings.
Gentleness, Virtue, Wisdom, and Endurance,
These are the seals of that most firm assurance
Which bars the pit over Destruction's strength;
And if, with infirm hand, Eternity,
Mother of many acts and hours, should free
The serpent that would clasp her with his length;
These are the spells by which to re-assume
An empire o'er the disentangled doom.
To suffer woes which Hope thinks infinite;
To forgive wrongs darker than death or night;
To defy Power, which seems omnipotent;
To love, and bear; to hope till Hope creates
From its own wreck the thing it contemplates;
Neither to change, nor falter, nor repent;
This, like thy glory, Titan, is to be
Good, great and joyous, beautiful and free;
This is alone Life, Joy, Empire, and Victory."
Finally shock and awe for me. And Depend. If I have offended your terrible Being, I beg your pardon.
DC = Demogorgon's Cult
We stop, look, at one another,
Short of breath,
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
Facing a dying nation
A moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes.

"We're becoming the police state I was warned about in my youth."
The hell of it is, its the very people that warned us who are creating the police state.

I might add, these Kentuckians are the same people who vote for Mitch McConnell term after term after term. Kind of like a retarded mouse/rat that keeps going to the dead end in the maze, or a retarded mouse that goes back repeatedly to the same feeding hole where it gets jolted with enough electricity to power NYC metro.
There is a reason why "Dukes of Hazard" story was based in Kentucky. And you can see it in the numbers. You dumb idiots who want to blame everything on "darky" might want to notice the difference between KY and the national numbers.
http://www.deptofnumbers.com/unemployment/kentucky/
Or you can just blather on in your own ignorance blaming decades of Republican policies shitting on the middle class while giving tax breaks to companies moving factories overseas on "darky". I've long since given up hope on Kentucky rodents finding their way through the maze. They "know" it's "darky's fault" and no amount of electric jolts through the nose is going to change their voting behavior.
All right wingers know the Dukes of Fucking Hazard was based upon a Georgia theme. If you don't know that, your argument is invalid, dipshit.
Let's pretend you're correct (which you're not). But, let's pretend you're correct for a moment. How much does a toothless idiot who married his first cousin, educated in Kentucky differ from a toothless idiot who married his first cousin, educated in Georgia?? One picks his nose just before dinner and the other picks his nose during dinner??
I guess you got me on the subtleties there. OK, You got me on that one. I'll wait for the Cliff's notes pal.
Wow.
You are a glittering jewel of colossal ignorance.
You son of bombast and confusion.
YYEEEEEHAAAAAHHH!!! Let's GO, Luke!!!
And also, Fuck You.
Teddy,
So whose fault is it that this world we live in has turned into a shithole? Is it the darkies fault or is it the toothless idiots that married their first cousin? We have to know who to blame. Leave it to plebs like you to blame the problems on Tyrone or Bubba. I'll give you a hint; Tyrone and Bubba had nothing to do with it and they're in the same boat as every one else.
Why do you have something against toothless idiots? Is it because deep down you know that you're their intellectual equals? Is it because you blame the toothless idiots using the same exact logic that the toothless idiots use to blame darkies? Nigga Peas, yer stoopid.
The Downtrodden
"The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,
But in ourselves, that we are underlings. (1.2.135)"
The Underling
Huh. Learn me something new every day, I do.
So if I hear you correctly, then you're basically advocating tasering people who don't vote the way you think they should?
That's advance human thought! </sarc>
They did invent KY jelly didn't they? And they have tons of gold at Fort Knox, I hear.
When you want to improve your dog breed (or Jewishness), you fuck your sister or niece (in the case of Jewishness). They're only trying to improve.
And let me guess "you're General Lee" as well. Now give me an Eeeee-Hawwww! mister!
"Crazy Cooter coming at ya" lol
i love the right wingers who all of a sudden complain about budget deficits and government spending. where were they when the previous administration was spending trillions on useles wars AND cutting taxes at the same time???? NOW they complain. how convenient.
As long as they were cutting taxes, the right-wingers were happy.
Bush was white and an alcoholic, they could relate.
Right left paradigm, how convenient, wrong and right, up and down,
Carl Marx loves you from his cool, cool grave.
American national debt is only a record of the amount of oil burned without yee giving the rest of us something net back - it was the nationalist Friedmanite inspired US treasuary doing something truely spectacular.
Before Vietnam America recycled its surplus into the wider world (think Marshall plan) then after the Bretton Woods breakdown yee recycled the now wider worlds surplus back into New York.
So you remained a superpower for 40 years despite being in massive debt - a awe inspiring feat of genius.
Milton was the ideas man and big old Uncle Paul was the hitman - 40 years of a controlled world implosion so America could stay on top !!!!! WOW
The debt is a honour badge for successful war making.
Like Rome, America needs (and needed) to consume more than it produced. She has one hell of an army to feed (like Rome). Unlike Rome, America prints IOUs and gives them to her subjects in exchange for the tribute. (England does this too.) It's all part of being The Superpower. This may seem foreign to the Irish, since they have never aspired to superpowerishness.
But the Irish do get to pay tribute.
Tipsy is the tribute the Irish pay to themselves for superpowernessless.
:-)
Great stuff. Love it. Read your Sun Tzu Irish Attack Dog! Oil is so twentieth century! How does 20 bucks a barrel sound? Can we be friends then?
We also used to have this wonderful 91% tax rate for income over $100,000 in this country. That's back when we could still pay for our things.
How the fuck does anyone know that's a men's room?
That is typical Kentucky women's penmanship.
Some of the talent here gets so excited when they see writing on a men's room wall......
I better quit now :-)
Finally, intelligence in a bathroom stall???

All the douchenozzles arguing left vs. right. Get your head out of your asses, then get over yourselves.
Can I supplant, The fist of " cotton" in your presumptious ass? SP, by one figure!
cheering for either side in this fallacy of a puppet show is a fucking joke.
anyone falling for either camp's demagoguery needs to go play in traffic. pronto. we've got too many idiots on this planet anyway.
Douchenozzles indeed.
Anyone with two f**kin ounces of smarts knows both parties are piloting the good ol US of A towards a cliff.
Dude, we went over that cliff many years ago. Now we're hanging out in space like Wile E. Coyote. :-)
Yeah, but we're smart enough not to look down!
Yup. Just waitin for the dead cat bounce. :-)
Coyotes don't bounce, unless they have special (Acme supplied) equipment. I saw that on Saturday morning TV. They didn't show cats.
Well, I saw a couple of coyotes in the mosh pit at a Pixie Wing concert and they were bouncing like they were like tennis balls in Forest Hills.
