DEA agent shoots himself in the foot during demonstration.

Gabor’s prince mistakes glue for eye drops

“Zsa Zsa Gabor’s husband, Prince Frederic Von Anhalt, accidentally glued his eye shut Tuesday morning”

News of this happening to someone in the world seems to pop up at least once every few years. The last time I recall was this, as Bill Maher reported:

“An elderly woman in Pheonix was reaching for her cataract medicine and, yes, she Super glued her eye shut. And after seeing what happened, her husband of many years, took the Super Glue and moved it next to the toothpaste.”

This particular incident is only slightly political because the guy who did it happens to have bought his way in to a royal family, sorta. But it brings up all sorts of person memories for me, like when my friend mistook aerosol glue for aerosol deodorant and when I mistook aquarium glue for lotion in the dark.

Pat Robertson: LEGALIZE POT?!?!?!?!?!?

“…criminalizing marijuana, criminalizing the possesion of a few ounces of pot, and that kind of thing, I mean it’s just, it’s costing us a fortune and it’s ruining young people. You people go in to prisons, they go in as youths, and they come out as hardened criminals, and that’s not a good thing.” -Pat Robertson

While the above quote had to be salvaged from repeated words and verbalized pauses, I was shocked, SHOCKED, to hear Evangelist Pat Robertson speaking reasonably about drug policy… or anything, for that matter.

I’m thinking the bigger fail here is not on the part of the police…

If this were two years ago, I would have headlined this, “Britney Spears just can’t catch a break these days!” But ah, the moment has passed.

Overly-passionate candidate, Phil Davison

Re-elect Deb Hadcock, the presumably-transsexual candidate!

Funny Jan Brewer “Pause” Parody Commercial

JSLAB sent me a message requesting/demanding that I do something about Arizona Governor Jan Brewer’s recent gaffe. A few hours later, I finished this campaign commercial, highlighting Brewer’s pause and warnings about beheadings in Arizona.

Until yesterday, I lived in Arizona, and I can personally say that I have not been beheaded once. Still, just to be safe, I’ll be going to Vegas tomorrow to meet up with my brother, and we’ll be driving to Michigan.

Prank calls to racist school!

Isn’t it about time that I, Kevin R. Breen of FAILocracy did something, I don’t know, HEROIC? Yes. It is time.

Below is an image of the official election rules for Nettleton Middle School’s 2010 officer elections.

You can see more details about this in my write-up at When Falls the Coliseum.

Campaign ad including actual quote, “I wish it weren’t, but it’s a free country,” from Mass. governor.

Cop tries to arrest KFC employees over order!

I’ve heard of lots of incidents of people calling the police over fast food orders, but this is the first one I’ve seen where the person doing the calling actually was a cop. This happened right here in Arizona.

Authorities pursue man running with scissors

Another great argument in the gay marriage debate…

“The only GAY marriage is between a man and a woman.”

Another unfortunately-named politician.

Just wait for the NEXT sheriff.

Anti-Bus ad on a Bus

Anti-Bus ad on a Bus, originally uploaded by FAILocracy.

I designed this advertisement by request for an organization that was opposing an expansion of the public transit system in Grand Rapids Michigan (after discovering that it would be cheaper and more fuel-efficient to just give all the riders free cab rides).

The creators of the campaign wanted to put the ad on a billboard, but the billboard company rejected the ad as disparaging. But, when they submitted the ad to appear on the bus itself, free speech and fairness regulations forced them to accept it.
