Pronounce it right

A lot of embarrassment can be caused if you mix up syllables.

For instance:


Darth Nirius shows you a few other things you should be careful of.

Pot Holes and Hot Poles


Pop corn and Cop porn


Shaking a tower and taking a shower


A lack of pies and a pack of lies


A loving shepherd and a shoving leopard

What is Barack Obama doing?

Barrack Obama, the most anticipated guy after Jesus, right?
Barrack Obama, the harbinger of hope and change, the 'Yes we can' revolution.

But why isn't there news of him doing anything? After the elections, we've heard more about George W. Bush than Barack Obama.

A few of his promises, with our thoughts:

From both a moral standpoint and a practical standpoint, torture is wrong. Barack Obama will end the use torture without exception.
Not happening. Britney Spears concerts are being booked as he speaks.

Will reduce oil consumption overall by at least 35 percent, or 10 million barrels of oil, by 2030.
Dude, you're only in office till 2016, at max. Nobody will listen to you after that. In fact, if you're anything like your predecessors, they won't even listen to you till 2016.

I'll put in place the common-sense regulations and rules of the road I've been calling for since March -- rules that will keep our market free, fair, and honest; rules that will restore accountability and responsibility in our corporate boardrooms...
...and colonize the moon and travel into the future... The American "Dream".

Will lead a global effort to secure all nuclear weapons materials at vulnerable sites within four years - the most effective way to prevent terrorists from acquiring a nuclear bomb.
That's another way of saying 'America will rob the world's weapons and collect all of its own at one place and nuke the world in four years.'

And, finally, the big one:
Will get the US Army out of Iraq, within 6 months.
Hahahahahahahaha.

What's In a Name - 1

The Secret Service of Lolland knows the secrets behind all names. Thus, it is that names of some things are prophetic, and give clues about what those things will ultimately become. We present a few here, that you may be enlightened.

1. The Third Front :
This coalition of parties (headed by the beautiful Mayawati) lived up to its name bravely. In the Indian elections of 2009, it got hundreds (okay, one hundred) of votes less than either the BJP or the Congress, and showed the world exactly how to come third in style.

2. Satyam :
It should have been obvious from the beginning that nobody with good intentions could name their company something like Satyam - that the owner of such a company must consider himself to have topped Houdini in misdirection by naming his company after truth. But Ramalinga Raju went a tad too far with his magic tricks when he started making hundreds of crores of rupess vanish into thin air.
