Ryyannon's Time-Wasters: Making it REALLY BIG as a war reporter....

Having forked up big-time like this once or twice myself, I can feel this guy's pain. Doesn't stop me from loving it just the same:

Funny, but I had to edit the URL as the censor got it. Here's a redirect:

My favourite quote so far:

Dude, you should have just kicked his hillbillie ass. Night Rider is the most awesome show in the history of TV. You could have beat his ass down and then called in K.I.T.T. to throw some Baghdad gravel up on him. Those jarhead dumbasses have no respect for you or the Hoff. At least those Ugandan guys know not to mess with your obvious credentials, or your street cred. With the kind of incompetence that gets into the military nowadays, I’m just glad that Gomer’s buddy on the other end of the radio knew about Night Rider. That show really is bigger than the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Los Angeles Times. Next time, tell him that you’re not only taking down names, but you, K.I.T.T. and the Hoff will be also kicking some Marine ass."

:lol:

This was wonderful, Ryyannon.

Doesn't the journalist's attitude kinda remind you of another famous faux-pas...Sen. John Kerry telling a group of college students they could either work hard in school or "get stuck in Iraq."

And the next day, this was the response from our troops.

Traditionally the line, "Don't you know who I am?" has been attributed to the rich, wannabe big shots, politicians, and other a-holes who want to throw their weight around.

And finally we now have proof that belittling a guy who faces constant danger every day is more important than anything, by a journalist whose only motive is, "Outta my way, Beeatch! I got more important things to do, unlike you, you dumb hick!".

And thanks to Pugwash for making it easier to read the link.

P.S.: Peruvians ARE very nice.
