Thanks to
a tweet by our Court Jester, we were turned on to
this little bit of nuttiness. Apparently, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is handing out free spuds to voters right before the Iranian elections.
The Government is handing out 400,000 tonnes of free spuds in rural towns. It says that it is merely distributing the surplus from a bumper crop, but Mr Ahmadinejad’s opponents accuse it of bribing the poor. “Death to potatoes,” they chant at rallies.
What's with these people? How does everything have to end up in a chant of "Death to ______!" What kind of conversations do they have?
Iranian 1: Man, today was a bad day on the road. It took me 30 minutes to get home.
Iranian 2: I know what you mean. Death to traffic! Did I tell you about how my insurance company accidentally billed me for my doctor's visit?
Iranian 1: No, really? Death to insurance!
Iranian 2: I hear you. Well, I gotta run. Going bowling tonight.
Together: Death to the pins!
Death to potatoes. Maybe they're doing this to make themselves too difficult to parody. Ya think?
