Shoe throwing.

[personaje]

Blergh. I have work today and tomorrow, but instead of working in the afternoon, I'm doing morning shift because, and this is the official reason, they couldn't find security personnel to work in the afternoons in Christmas break. Huh

An Arab friend on my flist has written this amazing post on the shoe throwing incident, and I can't articulate it half as well as her. Sadly, it's locked, but I can ask her for permission in quoting it if you want.

Meanwhile, we're watching people here split into shoe jokes mongers (did you know that the Egyptian word for shoe rhymes with crisis? Hilarity ensues), shoe celebrants, and US apologists.

Well, at least the year ended with a bang. Or a throw.

He's a war criminal that took my country's reputation, pissed on it, and set it on fire. He ignored my countrymen as they died for his bullshit war, cracked jokes as they drowned, and read a kids' book as almost three thousand people lost their lives. Fuck yes, I'd throw a shoe.

I should add: I'd throw a shoe if I wasn't aware the Secret Service would then fuck me up the ass with said shoe.
