Funny pictures of politics and world affairs

This was in a local newspaper some time ago. It says:

Of COMPLICATED THINGS

"I tried to understand but I still can't get it. It's so complicated and difficult."

"Do you mean Physics?"

"I mean voting system in America."

Well they came in second and it didn't feel wrong. I mean Israel and the whole caucasus is in although they still say that Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in Europe and not Elbrus! Too bad they lost so next time won't be in Canberra.

He who must not be named - at least if you're using Chrome.

I'm tempted to install Chrome just to get the plugin.

I'm running Chrome, and would loved to have had the app.

I didn't look in the store since I don't have Chrome. I found a Firefox plugin but I couldn't install that either - it gives me a corrupt file error. I guess I'll keep looking (or write it myself).

I got the same error. It was removed, so I made my own. It's only 1 line in JavaScript. It's a simple replace function call in JavaScript. Just one line. I went to this thread: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/breaking-down-the-2016-potus-race-contenders-issues.831913/

and it was funny to read it with the replacements.

Well, it was fun while it lasted. Although funny it's a pretty useless extension so bye bye.

Edit: I can see there are already in existence some extensions that also replace text in a web page with user given parameters. For Chrome and Firefox (called add-on in Firefox).

[edit] For the youngsters in the crowd, the guy on the bottom is Richard Milhous Nixon. People used to call him "Tricky Dick".

hmmmm... google google google...

Ah ha!

Q: Why was Richard Nixon called "Tricky Dick"?
A: According to About.com's Steve Smith, the nickname "Tricky Dick" for Richard Nixon, the 37th President of the United States, was a response to smear campaign he ran against Helen Douglas when both were competing for a Senate seat in 1950. He was first referred to as "Tricky Dick" in a 1950 newspaper campaign funded by a Democratic committee urging citizens to “Look at Tricky Dick Nixon’s Republican Record.”​

He would later on, REALLY live up to the name. And of course, The Washington Post was kind of involved with uncovering that.

Clinton announces exciting discovery that time exists in yesterday's speech. Time had no comment.

I believe in an America always moving toward the future
