Work Today
(maybe this will become a daily update)
It pisses me off when people walk to the back of the office (past the big sign with colorful letters that says "Please Ring Bell for Service") and expect to be treated intelligently. Of course, there isn't much that pisses me off more than eyebrow rings. It is in fact, my firm belief that eyebrow rings are the ugliest abomination ever afflicted upon the human race. That is, besides Che Guevara shirts. If there were ever a better indication that the wearer of such apparel were a tool, I'm unaware of its existence.
If a person were to walk into the office wearing a Che shirt, with an eyebrow ring, skipping past the big colorful sign, and looking generally like a douche bag he should expect to be treated as such. Until today such an event has never occured. In commemoration, I've decided to express my opinion of Che Guevara in a sort of collage.
First I should preface with a couple choice Che Guevara anecdotes.
From Wikipedia
Prior to the Cuban Missile Crisis, Guevara was part of a Cuban delegation to Moscow in early 1962 with Raúl Castro where he endorsed the planned placement of Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba. Guevara believed that the placement of Soviet missiles would protect Cuba from any direct military action against it from the United States. Jon Lee Anderson reports that after the crisis Guevara told Sam Russell, a British correspondent for the socialist newspaper Daily Worker, that if the missiles had been under Cuban control, they would have fired them.

I am Che Guevara and I have failed.
Dept. of Defense Intelligence Information Report 11/28/67, 1967
Lt. Pérez asks Guevara if he wishes anything before his execution. Guevara replies that he only wishes to "die with a full stomach." Pérez asks him if he is a "materialist" and Guevara answers only "perhaps."
Many of you may be familiar with the canonical picture of Che that is often seen on shirts:
My original thinking when considering a modification was a simple mockery in the form of the most notorious dictator and evil doer in history:
Finally I decided that a combination of all the mockery would make for the best satire. In the end, I think I was correct:
