El Tomboto, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:21 (eighteen years ago)

many of these are also sex acts, according to urbandictionary

I DIED, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:22 (eighteen years ago)

i walked in on my college roommate once while he was engaged in the Thai Variation

Mr. Que, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:23 (eighteen years ago)

have you ever done a Vietnamese Retaliotio?

Mark Clemente, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:24 (eighteen years ago)

"I'm going to give you the Kenya Option tonight"

El Tomboto, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:24 (eighteen years ago)

hahah this is great

Mark Clemente, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:24 (eighteen years ago)

English Thrust actually NOT a sex act

I like how Iceland is so important it gets TWO options

Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:25 (eighteen years ago)

Seriously, who the fuck even knows where Gabon is?

El Tomboto, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:26 (eighteen years ago)

Africa

Mr. Que, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:26 (eighteen years ago)

I love this fucking movie. I've told teenage coworkers with FRIEND DRAMA "The only winning move is not to play" and they think I'm some fount of wisdom. hahaha

Abbott, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:26 (eighteen years ago)

Gabongoans know. (xxpost)

StanM, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:27 (eighteen years ago)

Do they also know that a rebellion or a takeover in their country could apparently set off the end of the world?

El Tomboto, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:28 (eighteen years ago)

least pleasant to receive:

Sudan Surprise
Swiss Incident
Syrian Provocation

I DIED, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:28 (eighteen years ago)

The Turkish Heavy was the result of a Adana kebab feast at Incirlik, which clogged the sewers all the way to Antakya.

Euler, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:29 (eighteen years ago)

I likt this one:

Arctic Minimal

Where the hell did you find this list, T-bot?

Abbott, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:29 (eighteen years ago)

nothing gets them dressed and the door faster than SEATO Decapitating, I find

El Tomboto, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:30 (eighteen years ago)

I, uh, wrote it down from the youtube clip.

El Tomboto, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:30 (eighteen years ago)

I am sick at home.

El Tomboto, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:30 (eighteen years ago)

Syrian Provocation can be a nice change, if it's done correctly.

Mr. Que, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:30 (eighteen years ago)

the Mexican Takeover destroyed my marriage

I CAN'T DECIDE BETWEEN "MEXICAN TAKEOVER" AND "CHAD ALERT"

Looks like FOURTH OF JULY BLESS MY SOUL

Abbott, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:32 (eighteen years ago)

Libyan Local sounds like some kind of improvised anaesthetic (ie doctor hits you in the head with a hammer)

Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:33 (eighteen years ago)

you have to be pretty limber to attempt the Pacific Maneuver.

That one guy that hit it and quit it, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:35 (eighteen years ago)

wooo Taiwan Theaterwide!

jessie monster, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:48 (eighteen years ago)

Taiwan Theaterwide

most likely

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:56 (eighteen years ago)

I think Chad Interdiction is going to be my next screen name.

Rock Hardy, Monday, 19 November 2007 20:59 (eighteen years ago)

how bout you and I do the Arabian Clandestine *wink* *wink*

Heave Ho, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:02 (eighteen years ago)

SEATO Decapitating, Taiwan Misdirection, and Arabian Clandestine should all be band names.

jessie monster, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:03 (eighteen years ago)

I, uh, wrote it down from the youtube clip.

Tombot, you are a hero.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:05 (eighteen years ago)

wow, apparently BRGR is a real place now.

kingfish, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:23 (eighteen years ago)

Do they also know that a rebellion or a takeover in their country could apparently set off the end of the world?

I recall that Gabon has some oil reserves, so anything potentially petro-related = WW3 bait.

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:46 (eighteen years ago)

I voted for the Denmark Massive

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:47 (eighteen years ago)

These also could be missing titles for Global Underground's DJ sets.

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:48 (eighteen years ago)

guys I heard there's gonna be a revolution in Portugal

Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:49 (eighteen years ago)

Uganda Maximum would make a killer porno name

latebloomer, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:50 (eighteen years ago)

The ARCTIC, guys, it seems hardly volatile unless Santa or some Caribou are stashing enriched uranium.

Abbott, Monday, 19 November 2007 21:50 (eighteen years ago)

Well, it does look like it has some dangerous PLAYZONES:

Moroccan Minimal was my pick. Sounds like some sort of crappy dragon J.K.Rowling might invent.

Heave Ho, Tuesday, 20 November 2007 01:02 (eighteen years ago)

this is tremendous, but 'not to play' shouldn't be a visible option--unless you add 'a nice game of chess'

did anybody bother to watch the sequel? Guessing it was just a generic hacker movie that had nothing in common with the original.

for the record, i just wanted an existing thread to talk about close calls

you guys are reading way too much into this

Doomsday clock is the closest its ever been, says wikipedia (and whoever it is that decides the time on the doomsday clock).

I mean, yes, it says that right on the wiki page that I linked. I wasn't asking for clarification, I was being breezily dismissive. You know, as a rhetorical device.

emil.y, Thursday, 26 February 2026 18:06 (three months ago)

oh, the atomic scientists

Atom Egoyam, the members of Atomic Kitten and Atoms for Peace

Lady Sovereign (Citizen) (milo z), Thursday, 26 February 2026 18:59 (three months ago)

the clock's a clever way to get their organization's opinions about the current state of international relations noticed. I agree with them that having an erratic fascist who can't even be bothered to read his security briefings occupying the most powerful position on earth is highly dangerous. kinda a no-brainer really

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Thursday, 26 February 2026 19:31 (three months ago)

remember in the first term where Trump thought you could nuke a hurricane

Mollusk, Virginia (Boring, Maryland), Thursday, 26 February 2026 19:37 (three months ago)

who says you can't?

the risky part about setting the clock so near midnight is, what if you forget daylight savings time and it skips ahead an hour. could be curtains

so is this "Pakistan Sovereignty"?

In my video I say, "I think the US will attack Iran Feb 26, 27, or maybe 28" because of the Mars square Uranus transit in hard aspect to the Moon's of both countries and is setting off the recent eclipse degree.
