Time is ripe for gays in same-sex marriages to get Green Cards. It’s more dignified than amnesty.

Doctor Alborzi,

by Omid Hast on

Mammal is Shahi and Hassan is Islamist.  They agree on one thing, and one thing only.

They must be shahi

by Alborzi (not verified) on

We had a few of them in shomineh and key club too, its one of the symptoms of loosing your values when you have nothing else to worry about. Not that there is anything wrong with them.

Exquisite torture

by Anonymouse on

I guess I am dumb as a nail because I can't understand the academic version of it, but I think I can get the other versions provided by Omid and Rosie.

So I guess it can be either about a thing, a thought or a person.  A thing like dropping hot candle wax on your skin.  A thought, like watching porn.  A person (Torture and torturer) like the below; 

When I was a child I always thought am I the only one who can see? I can see everything from my eyes but I can't see myself.  Something must be special because I "see".  Do other people "see" also? This later gets extended to all feelings.  Later others do things to you and don't "see".  At some point we don't even think others "see" and then we do atrocities and so on.

Now this exquisite thing, I don't think it relates to this cartoon.  These 2 are obviously gay and in love with their ghormesabzis so it is not a torture.

I like Majid's Mullah's joke, very funny!

Omid jan, it's a little more complicated than just challenging federal  laws.  It is how you diffrentiate between fraud and equal rights and don't violate the equal rights.  For example, if Mamal and Hassan are not gay but want to use "same-sex" marriage laws to fraud the federal Govt (not just green card), should they be able to do it?  If federal Govt changes the laws to recognize "gay" marriage but wants to have an amendment to limit it to "gay" marriage and ask for "gay" intercourse exhibition of some kind (for example) for proof, would that be fair to gays? What kind of law would make gay marriage legal and prevent fraud at the same time?

You can always say what JJ says, man che midonam?    :-)

Interpretation #6

by observer (not verified) on

Mamal, a pre-op trans-sexual, is planning to have a sex change operation but has not discussed it with his partner for the fear of breaking his heart. Now, faced with a marriage proposal, he is pondering how to be outed!

"the man" asked

by Omid Hast on

Bubonic Plague of the fourteenth century did not kill enough people in Iran as it did in Europe, otherwise we’d be dancing our heads off in public now instead of watching every move we make. But, this time around we have another kind of plague, and people are dancing in anderoon, because they want life but they can’t have it. So, they dance around everything, in anderoon. Some of them around Rosie.

I was not asking for non-academic explanation for myself. I have learned to understand your language, academic or not. As I said “the man” wants to know. The anonymous man is the one who asked for simpler explanation of the phrase exquisite torture.

I have not read your blog about google rating yet. I’ll try to read it tomorrow. To borrow your own suggestion, why don’t you submit your writings as articles? If rahbar does not find it suitable for publication as an article, you can always post it as a blog. Just a suggestion.

Now if you’d excuse me, I have to go torture myself.

Just a little observation!

You get an A, Omid, every single thing you said is right

by Rosie T. on

and when I googled it, they even talked a lot about waterboarding, and I don't even know what that is but it's a sport of some kind.  I told you, exquisite torture can happen in ANY realm

but I am concerned at the present moment with the absolutely ecstatic torture that occurs when two humans are playing the same game.  It is the ecstasy of deprivation for both the torturer and the tortured.  You see, the torturer can never torture enough.  So t's a tango, it's a dance.  In German you call it Todestanz, the dance of death.  The term originated during the Plague in Europe when people danced and danced as they awaited their deaths.

A song emerged from those days.  A children's song. Ring around the rosey, a pocket full of posey.  Ashes ashes we all fall down, in which the rosey is the red welt of the Bubonic Plague and the posey, also a flower, is the puss contained therein. Ashes ashes is the grey color of the victims' peeling skin just before they drop dead.  In this case the unnatainable is Life.  They want life and they can't have it and so it makes them dance. Ring around the Rosie.

This is NOT academic language, lovey ducky.  And I am NOT on a high horse. Right now I'm lucky if I'm riding an ass. But don't you worry your pretty little head about me.  As Gloria Gaynor says, and as you well know, I will survive.  I'm sorry if I can't provide you with a better language.  At the moment this is the only one I have.

Btw, did you see my blog from this morning about google ratings? I think you will enjoy it.  It took about ten hours to write but unfortunately very few people will see it.  It was featured very briefly and then mysteriously unfeatured. Such is Life.

Explanation of Torture

(in all its glory)


Omid Hast

Dear professor,

by Omid Hast on

Come down your academic high horse and talk to the little people in SIMPLE English, the man said. Please refrain from explaining the most exquisite form of torture because the man is not yet clear about the simplest form of it yet. I already gave a complicated explanation from Shakespeare’s manual, and he does not understand it.

Here is another example of non-symbiotic exquisite torture; a blind man wanted to know what white color was. So, I had him touch a peace dove and told him the feel of the dove is color white. Now, that’s exquisite torture to the blind.

Now, what grate do I get for my SIMPLE explanation of what Exquisite Torture is?

A, B, C, D, F minus.

First thing last

by Omid Hast on

This guy in the picture is Mohsen Rezaee, currently the Secretary of the Expediency Discernment Council of the IRI.  He is not Mammal. 

*  Once state laws are established Federal laws, including immigration laws, can be challenged for equal rights and antidiscrimination, or another word if it's good for one state it should be good for everyone.

A worm blooded partner? Worms are cold-blooded, Azizam...

by Rosie T. on

{prnograhpy?  I don't know. sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.  I guess when it doesn't it's a kind of exquiste torture.  Exquisite torture can even  happen in sports, for example, or really any area at all.

But I already told you that the most exquisite form of torture is when the torturer and the tortured are one, tangoing tangoing together in an exquisite dance of torture.

I do not know anymore, said the whoremonger to the whore, which is which and what it's for but every whoremonger needs a whore.  And every mongrel needs a bitch And every master needs a switch.  And bastards too and so do you. I do not know anymore if I'm the whoremonger or the whore.

Exquisite torture.  Beautiful.  Symmetrical.  Perfect.

"Save the Last Dance for Me"

by Omid Hast on

“Save the Last Dance for Me” is most likely based on the personal experience of Doc Pomus, who had polio and used crutches to get around and could not dance. His wife, however, was a Broadway actress and dancer. The song gives his perspective of plaintively telling his wife to have fun dancing, but reminds her who will be taking her home and "in whose arms you're gonna be."


Omid Hast

What does ’exquisite torture’ mean?

by Omid Hast on

Ask Rosie T. I had to look it up in a manual myself. The best I can do is to provide an example of an exquisite torture situation: when one looks at porn he thinks it’s beautiful, so he deprecates himself, by himself, without ever experiencing the real pleasure of a worm blooded partner.

Am I correct professor?


Omid Hast

Mammal is not Mahmoud

by Omid Hast on

Mahmoud hates America, I mean shaitan’e bozorg, I mean the ‘terroristic government’, I mean the ‘regime occupying Iraq’,... Mammal on the other hand loves America. He looks forward to get married in America one day and live a prosperous life with his family.

Does the other guy have ghormeh sabzi, also?

by Omid Hast on

He did have ghormeh sabzi but shaved it.

How is this funny?

by Omid Hast on

Interpretation #1- The guy is not gay, but he has heard that same-sex marriage is legal now (in California). He has a strong will to get a Green Card, so he has found a way to do it (he thinks).

Interpretation #2- The guy is gay and does not know the difference between State and Federal laws, so he thinks by getting married with the same-sex partner he can get his Green Card now.

Interpretation #3- The guy is gay, he knows the difference between State and Federal laws, but he wants to get married with the same-sex partner so he can challenge the Federal laws and in the process by the force of his will find a way to change the immigration laws.

Interpretation #4- Mammal has deceived him into a same-sex relationship but he is not totally committed to it, so now his partner is asking the tough question. The guy is pleading, Mammal is thinking: "How can I get out of this one now?"

Interpretation #5- Mammal has a PhD from Southwestern Oklahoma State University. His partner has a PhD from Amirkabir University in Tehran but works as a dishwasher in Los Angeles area.

Interpretation #6-...


Rosie T.

It's just funny. It just IS. With all those women in Iran

by Rosie T. on

desperately trying to get married and get green cards, suddenly there's this guy, maybe fromTehrangeles, maybe from Bay Area, I guess, and he probably spends six months here and six months there, and now...well...Welcome to the Hotel California.

At least that's my interpretation.  But Omid can enlighten you better than I.

And I have gone to seed.

by Rosie T. on

It have been to hell in a handbasket these last months.  But as Gloria Gaynor says (and Omid well knows), I will surive.

PS, KS, Are you doing your homework?

Of course, Koroush. Now go back and read the Chicken thread..

and come back when you have thoroughly digested it. (No pun intended, but then they rarely are).  I am going to quiz you on it.

And there is ALWAYS a way.

 PS All, Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today on this thread to join together in holy matrimony, in this Matrix, which means womb.  And as the saying goes, "womb to tomb."  (And I bet you ANYTHING, well ALMOST anything, that Darius knows where the quote comes from).. We are UNITED here in cyberspace, we are pixels that have been in search of one another for all eternity, and finally we have found one another.  The only problem I can see is that there's no woman for ME.  After all, it's Gay Day. Well, I guess Natalia will be ambling in shortly. Anyway, she's calling me tonight. I will propose to her.

Koroush, a propos of nothing, I made you an offer the last time you wrote on Omid's thread, the Big Chicken one.  You did not reply.  I am sorely disappointed.  I thought we were going to make an arrangement to save each other's souls. If you do not answer AGAIN I will have to assume that silence is consent and track you down.  I am patient, but my patience is wearing thin.

R.

Mamal

by Hajminator on

Omid jan,

Very good design it goes with the officialisation of gay marriage in california.

Else, Mamal looks like Mahmoud (ahmaghinejad i mean) in your cartoon. Is mahmoud american for you?
