- I was disgusted at this further commemoration of the site's most disruptive recent vandal--until, of course, I stumbled onto the referenced AP wire. Quick (and excellent) work, guys. Spıke Ѧ 11:00 25-Apr-10
- The article is from the artful photon pen of Kip, I just wandered by for the fun. Al sans chains 11:19 25 4
Objection[edit]
I object - most sincerely - to the modified pic of Michelle Obama. This really is obscenity. --UnLaw 10:21, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
- I too object. America's First Lady would not be giving the Nazi salute (thank you UnLaw for pointing this out), her arm had to be photoshopped in by a sympathizer or actual member of the Nazi Party. Please accept my apology on behalf of Uncyclopedia for exposing you to such a thing, and I hope your nightmares subside. Aleister in Chains 11:24 25 4
This seems to be a problem that I didn't see coming. That photo of Michelle Obama and her "pie" is not meant to be sexist. The one picture isn't even supposed to be a single sexual innuendo joke in itself. Rather, it sets up the pie chart image. The joke is that Obama is more excited about defeating Bush than he is making love to his wife. I would have made a similiar joke if the president's spouse was a man. (Although it wouldn't make sense since there's no such thing as a "sausage chart".) -- Kip > Talk • Works • • 16:23, Apr. 25, 2010
- Good change. --UnLaw 16:42, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
- Kip, I see you've restored the original pic. My objection is not to the wave - it is nothing like a Nazi salute. I am beginning to learn an American meaning of 'pie', which to my mind makes this modified pic worse. If you insist on keeping it, at least as only UnNews it will vanish soon from the screen. --UnLaw 22:04, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
- I didn't want to accuse you of anything, but you say it wasn't the Nazi wave you object to, so this must be said. As you know (per your comment) in America African-Americans are called "pie". For most this is an affectionate term (Blackberry pie, blueberry pie, apple pie for lighter skinned blacks, just a fun way of alluding to their skin color), but you object to it so strongly that you must have a problem with Obama and other American blacks. Even though it will soon vanish from the screen, other African-Americans will undoubtedly take its place, and if I may suggest that maybe you befriend a black person or two. Get to understand their culture, and their lifestyle. Maybe bed one or two, always a good way to break racial barriers. Anyway, the Nazi salute is still objectionable to me too, so maybe that's what you meant to say after all. I don't like the picture for that reason. Aleister in Chains 22:26 25 4
- Al, I had no idea of that meaning of "pie" and thank you for the information (and, as it happens, I have many black friends in countries where I have lived, though I do not know many people in the US). I was guessing that the word was referring here to a certain body area. I'd rather let this matter drop. --UnLaw 00:11, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
