pretty much the best political ad (televised at least) I've ever seen.

TinManic

you can really tell they came up with the punchline first.

Frank Rizzo

Awkwardly stunned silence, followed by a chuckle and a brewski.

A vote for Steve Novick is a vote for intercontinental ballistic missle volcano bases.

Obama with a robot hand would be an unstoppable diversity machine.

I was not expecting that.

Yes. YES.

This is the best thing EVER.

Steve Novick was born without a left hand of fibula bones in his legs. He is approximately 4'9".
When he was 14, his junior high school closed because of low funding so he challenged courses and was able to get into the University of Washington, graduating at 18. He then proceeded to Harvard Law, getting his JD at 21, became an EPA attorney - notably serving as lead counsel in the successful 'Love Canal' prosecution - before returning to Oregon to work for the state Senate Democrats.
Although his opponent for the Democratic nomination for the OR Senate race, Jeff Merkley, is favoured by the national party, Novick is closing quickly in the most recent polls.
His slogan is "The Fighter with the Hard Left Hook."
He is the new way.

Chet I like to believe he had the hook installed while the camera panned away, he is willing to give just that much to his people.

Bartenders HATE it when you leave bottle cap marks on the table. He's a working class hero!

All who oppose his senate campaign will be crushed between his merciless claws.
|
Camonk And you can't escape, because his claws are made of metal. And Novick is very strong.

Man, I wouldn't want to have a beer with that guy.

That is awesome. Technically anyone who is part machine is called a cyborg aren't they? So this means we can have a cyborg in the Senate! Awesome. Also, please note that I'm using the definition as I remember it from a 10 year old dictionary that I read at least 10 years ago, making it a 20 year old definition now. Or maybe even 21. So if the definition isn't right it might just be because it's 21 and has been spending a lot of time in bars with guys with hooks for hands that are awesome.

The guy's "holy shit" expression is what makes this. It's like they didn't even tell the actor about the hook.
|
citrusmirakel
Why did the bartender give that guy a capped bottle? Fail on bartender.

JUST THIS PAST AUGUST, ROB, MY FIANCE (WE ARE PLANNING OUR WEDDING FOR JULY 14TH, 2001), INTRODUCED ME TO HIS FORMER GIRLFRIEND, DEBBIE, A REAL DBE AMPUTEE WHO WEARS BEAUTIFUL TWIN BODY-POWERED PROSTHESES WITH DORRANCE #5X STAINLESS STEEL HOOKS! DEBBIE, WHO IS ABOUT FIVE YEARS OLDER THAN ME, HAD TO HAVE BOTH OF HER HANDS AMPUTATED ABOUT TEN YEARS AGO AS THE RESULT OF A TRAGIC ACCIDENT THAT HAPPENED WHEN SHE WAS CARELESSLY PLAYING WITH SOME FIREWORKS. SHE AND I QUICKLY BECAME VERY GOOD FRIENDS, AND I SOON REVEALED TO HER MY DESIRE TO BECOME A REAL DBE AMPUTEE AND HAVE A PAIR OF BEAUTIFUL STAINLESS STEEL PROSTHETIC HOOKS INSTEAD OF MY TWO REAL HANDS. I REALLY WANT TO BE JUST LIKE DEBBIE!!
