So, who would you throw a shoe at?


Apparently, the shoe-flinging Iraqi journalist is feeling the love from at least some of his compatriots. I'm still pretty sure there are better ways to express dissent, and I doubt that this incident matters much at all in the larger scope of things.

Still... who would you toss a shoe at?

1. R. Kelly
2. Carson Runge

Any person who wastes time blaming George Bush (or any other politician) for macro miseries in which they were happily complicit while they could be presently working toward some kind of solution.

Who would I throw a shoe at?

Hint: I would need about 300 million shoes
 
My landlord.
 
I certainly would not throw THOSE shoes!
 
The non-handicapped people at my apartment complex who consistently park in the handicap parking spot.
 
Bernard Madoff.
 
1. Brent Musburger
2. Lee Corso
3. RRL's nemesis poly-sci professor
 
Spain? Well, at least there's a good chance you'll hit it, but the result won't be very satifying. I've been throwing my shoe at it for years with absolutely no visible effects ever. They laugh. Anon 8:53, if you ever get results, let me know.
 
The Accumail Gold software system.
 
Yesterday I really really wanted to throw a shoe at the Stanford admissions committee. I knew it was fierce out there, but when they denied my Norwegian-Peruvian kid who's fluent in 5 languages, has studied in French schools her whole life, has perfect Aplus grades, is a classical pianist, does physics research . . . I had some righteous indignation going on--which I gave them verbally instead of with my shoes.
 
Great call on Musburger, KV. Damn, that guy sucks.
 
I'm loving this.

Waco Farmer -- makes me smile (though classic conservative individuation of society, disregarding institutional effects) (oohh...now I admit I'm just being annoying)

Anon 8:53 -- Spain??? But Sangria is so good! And tortillas!

My additions:
1) Anyone at the Stanford admissions committee I hold no authority over as a pseudo-alum in support of Swissgirl
2) Myself, to get my attention to get back to work right now (ow!)
 
I wouldn't throw my shoe. I would take my anger and turn it into something good by giving my shoe to a poor person. Then I would give the other shoe to my dog, because she deserves to be happy too.
 
A few ideas:

1. anyone that I see wearing, or anyone that in the past has worn, a shirt with Che's head on it.
2. hippies
3. Anyone that I see wearing, or anyone that in the past has worn, a "Free Mumia" shirt.
4. Yuppies (hippies in suits)
5. Anyone that spends at least five nights a week talking about politics on TV (Matthews, Olbermann, O'Riley, Hannity, Maddow, Brit Hume, etc. - you all deserve a couple of shoes at your head).
6. Lou Reed (I have my reasons)
 
You'd throw a shoe at LOU REED? He would die! RRL, you are a mean person!

I would throw a shoe at RRL right before he throws one at Lou Reed.
 
Oh, and what is that poor person going to do with just one shoe? (I can figure out what your dog will do with the other).
 
Bates, if he loses a game tomorrow.
Prof Employment discrimination said she wanted to throw a shoe at me the other day.

I'll throw a shoe at a few profs if they make me lose my scholarship.

I'm shocked you haven't written you'd throw a shoe at the 8th Circuit.
 
Waco Farmer -- dude ... you're farming something other than authorized foodstuffs if you can't find ANY blame with George W. Hell, I'm an old Rockefeller Republican and I think he's arguable among the worst, least effective, most divisive, most self-consumed president since the glory days of Grant, Coolidge, and Hoover! (All Republicans, alas.)
I've got to agree with the poli-sci on this one -- you need to do more history homework.
Mike M.
 
US Citizenship & Immigration Services for making honest, hard working people jump through ridiculous hoops in order to achieve what should be the simplest goals - life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Needless to say, I spent all morning arguing over nonsense on behalf of a pro bono client who just needed her fingerprints taken as part of her application for permanaent residency. Shame on you USCIS.
 
Yay for Tradelaw guy! I would also throw a shoe at anyone who sneers at pro bono. Not my Manolos, but I'm just saying...

Anon 12:37, I like your style, ninja shoe skillz!
 
-Almost Everyone in my elementary and Middle Schools and most of the people from my high school.

-The Che head wearers for sure. And the Free Mumia people too. Add anyone with Lenin or Stalin on a T-Shirt. And Mao. Especially Mao. Better yet, make them all wear Hitler t-shirts since they like Murderers so much.

-My real estate agent.
 
Alan Greenspan
Caylee's mom
Scott Peterson

I reallllllly want to throw a couple of dozen shoes at him. SERIOUSLY. Make that rollerblades. I would throw roller blades at him.
 
I would thow shoes at "Prof" Osler, this blog is stupid. A blog about shoe-throwing is stupid.
 
Dear Anonymous 3:14 p.m.

Get a life. Better yet, study harder next term. You've got no one but yourself to blame.
 
Anon 3:14, if you think the President has quick reflexes, the Prof would grab the shoe mid air and send it back at ya.

Don't mess with the Os man.
 
1. Nancy Grace

2. Whoever ran out of Electronic Monitoring bracelets so my 18 year old mentally challenged client has to sit in Gen Pop despite having posted a $50K bond.

3. Susan Reed, the Bexar County DA.

4. Jesse Jackson

5. Nancy Grace, again.

I would throw a shoe at America's most dangerous hamburger clown, "Health Camp Willy."
 
I would throw a freshly polished wing-tip at Anon-3:14 for talking bad about Professor.
 
I didn't see the picture before. Those red shoes are really nice. I wouldn't throw those. I'd throw old muddy tennis shoes . . ..
 
Hey you found my favorite shoes! I've been looking for them! I did not throw them, I took them off while I was dancing. Please return them asap.

If you would like some OTHER shoes to throw, I offer my work sneakers. They are probably so covered in germs they qualify as biohazardous material. Just pick your target wisely (preferably not te CL's!)

My pick: PHC pharmacy

Mrs. CL
 
Throw shoes? No, I boil them until they're nice and soft and use them for stew.

Or burgers
 
Who throws his shoe? Honestly. Someone'll have a lump there.
 
Anonymous 3:14 p.m.:

DO NOT mess with Osler.

He knows flamethrower wielding pandas who run for office. AND the French.
