5. Two votes for the Hindenburg, I'm guessing because it |
|
actually gave off some light.

23. At least the Hindenburg served some purpose before it exploded. |

7. To be fair, she can read words in English |
|
from a teleprompter, though it may sound as though she is reading it out in tiny short lines that weren't broken up in the way that we actually speak English.
I.e.: She enunciated "dueling pistols" in the same way we say "dueling banjos".
So wrong.

13. Oh! You're just jealous! |
|
:hi: Here's my report, as found in this month's Junior Bazaar:
"What's with that smacking sound she makes when she talks? They trained her to not do it so often, but she sometimes sounds like Hoke from Driving Miss Daisy. Her breathing is still bizarre for a public speaker, too.
Much better than all the panting she did when she gave the "I'm A Quitter!" speech in her backyard. She's improving, just as the content of her speeches is about to start her downward spiral. '

14. Meaning she emphasized the "piss"? |
|
That sounds like an ESL pattern. We should start a rumor she was born in Kenya.

15. I taught ESL overseas. |
|
And I know what it sounds like when people whose first language is English are doing a cold reading, and when they're telling you something they have worked on to make sure they get their true feelings across.

22. To clarify, Rush was the punchline |
|
What's the difference between the Hindenburg and Rush Limbaugh?
One is a flaming Nazi airbag and the other is a blimp.

33. each one could fill the other... |
|
the Hindenburg could fit in the empty space between Palin's ears,
and the thoughtless hot air that spews from Palin's lips would fill a thousand Hindenburgs
