"The venomous swish of skirt" who occupies The Blue House

A sexist taunt from North Korea.

AND: "This is how Americans live today."

The venomous swish of skirt sounds more like a lyric you might hear from someone who occupies The House of Blues.

See, no matter how awful some country may be, it always has at least one redeeming quality.

Sexist taunts are cool! I enjoy them. May sexist taunts rain down from the heavens like so many nukes.

The Philippines is good for sexist taunts, too. One of my favorite reasons for visiting.

I should think the greater insult is that she wears a skirt and not a hanbok.

Forcing a huge fraction of the population to live on starvation rations: "uhhhhmmmm, OK"

Threatening their neighbors with nuclear attack: "uhhhhhhmmmmmmmm...."

Sexist taunts: "That is just so wrong!....."

They did that with Maggie Thatcher and Golda Meir.

We all know what happened next.

I was thinking Gatsby sentence.

I'm not sure it's sexist. They say horrible things about all the other leaders.

While I'm sure "swish of skirt" is withering misogyny in Korean it seems like a pretty goofy insult in English.

I think their description of a post-Obama America are fairly accurate.

As the current administration has seen fit to embrace regime change as foreign policy, it seems that negative emotional responses evoked by rhetorical games is the least concern of Kim Jong-un.

I'm sure your average Nork looks at that and says, "They get coffee?".

What is "Throws like a girl" in Korean?

BarrySanders20 said...

I always thought that would be Obama's Indian name, by the way.

Kevin Costner was Dances With Wolves.

His sweetie was Stands With A Fist.

Obama would be Throws Like A Girl.

All propaganda aside, I'm going to assume the North Korean landscapers get their illegal Mexicans from the Dunkin Donuts parking lot, same as here.

Does anyone at the White House have a spare drone?

We should have learned in 1941 that orientals are romantics that want glory. They get glory by striking the USA, and their certain defeat later is irrelevant.

It sounds like something that Dashiell Hammett would use or a phrase from an old film noire, maybe staring Humphrey Bogart.

I think I saw my old gym teacher in the video.

Then how come we've never been attacked by China or Inja?

tg, you really need to stop stereotyping.

Rosalyn C. said...

Something about Kim Jong Un reminds me of Clarence ``Lumpy`` Rutherford from Leave it to Beaver.

traditionalguy said...

Edutcher...But Inja is across the Himalayas from the Orient and not romantic at all.

As for China, have you forgotten what caused the Chosin Reservoir retreat? And what about the Boxer rebellion?

So, you're calling him fat?

Some of this doesn't seem that different from the propaganda you we get from the American left.

Emperor Kim has never seen Dennis Rodman in drag?

And not one of the hot ones you'd like to have a threesome with.

According to Google Translate, "Throws like a girl" is

여자처럼 던진다 in Korean.

Don't ask me to pronounce it.

Re: Mitchell the Bat:

There are plenty of photos of Madame Park in hanbok. Do an image search for 박근혜 한복.

Of course, if she wore hanbok every day that would be kind of weird.
