Let me try explaining that to you in a way that will make sense… Eric Idle, of Monty Python’s Flying Circus fame… follows me on Twitter… it is a long story, and I have done posts explaining how that came about… And he frequently retweets my funny Photoshop pictures…
That is Eric on the left, about to give Mr. Blatter, on the right, a ‘right good drubbing’… or maybe even something worse…
I suppose, to understand why this post is at all funny, you need to know two things. One is that Europeans take soccer… sorry… football… very seriously… and Mr. Idle is from England, which, believe it or not, is basically part of Europe. The second thing you need to know is that this guy…
Mr. Sepp Blatter… is the head of FIFA, the Fédération Internationale de Football Association… and he and most of the top administrators of this organization, have been involved… “allegedly”… in corruption and graft and bribe-taking that would make any Third World dictator blush…
I mean, this guy has huge balls… which is, ironically enough, the actual logo of FIFA… you can’t make this stuff up.
Anyway, there is a third thing you should know, although most of you already do know it… and that is that I have crack squirrels in my head, and I get carried away with things like this… so I did more than one picture…
See, the thing is… and this is a ‘thing’ that you should also know about me, if you don’t already… is that I love Photoshop. It is better than real life. And the thing I love most about it is using it to make fun of pompous ass-hats. (You can just do a search on my blog for ‘Dick Cheney pictures’ if you need an example)…
So naturally, when Mr. Idle asked me to help express his disgust towards this fellow, I was happy to oblige.
I had a lot of fun, to be honest, and since Mr. Idle retweeted all these, once again, if you go to his home page on Twitter right now, you will see all of these there, along with hundreds or likes and retweets and comments.
I suppose, at this point, I could, once again, offer to perform this same service for you, if you are really angry at some particularly annoying individual.
Well, eventually, the crack squirrels got bored doing these pictures… they were too obvious.
So we decided to move on to a few famous prison movies… like that one… which I titled; Oh Blatter, Where Art Thou… Going?
Or that one, where I changed the word ‘mile’ into ‘pile’, in clever reference to the piles of bribe money he had taken.
THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, Morgan Freeman, Tim Robbins, 1994, (c) Columbia Pictures
Or that one, where I hinted that he was trying to corrupt prison baseball.
At that point, even the crack squirrels were getting tired, and we finished it off by pointing out that Mr. Blatter’s name is both amusing and ironic, given the fact that he is just a large skin bag full of warm piss.
