favorite artists: Joseph Mallord William Turner, “The painter of light” (1775-1851)
“You should tell them that indistinctiveness is my forte” — Turner’s reply when hearing that some rich douchebag that purchased one of his paintings complained about it and called it indistinct (Willy’s taking none of your shit)

“ME ME ME” Generation: Top 5 ‘TIME’ Magazine Cover Parodies
“It seems not a lot of people are impressed with TIME’s latest magazine cover, dubbing millennials as the ‘ME ME ME’ generation. Although there’s a subtitle that suggests despite selfies and living in the basement with parents, past the narcissism, millennials have the power to save the world. Still, the nature of the cover itself can be easily interpreted to suggest that millennials are the only generation to have suffered from crippling egotism, when that simply isn’t the case. As a story in the Atlantic points out, every generation has been the ‘Me’ generation at some point. The only major difference now is that millennials have Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to highlight their me-ness. But a lot of people are pissed off. For example, as Tom Hawking wrote for Flavorwire, “Millennials may be ‘narcissistic, materialistic and addicted to technology,’ as Stein alleges early in his article; they’re also drowning in college debt, slaves to an internship ‘system’ that demands ever-increasing work for no pay, and entrants into a job market that’s replaced employment rights with the ‘flexibility’ of never being able to afford health insurance.” The same sentiments have been expressed in a viral Internet meme that both mocks and criticizes TIME’s cover. Here are the top five.”

Thought you couldn’t hate Obama any more than you already do? This is absolutely absurd. Just the mere fact that he would ask (order) a Marine to do this shows he has no concept of respect. Think this is photoshopped? I got it from the CNN website. It’s completely true. Do a web search and you’ll see multiple sources. This President is absolutely worthless.
Title ten of the Armed Forces US Code says that members of the military do what is asked of them by their Commander in Chief. The man next to them is the Prime Minister of Hungary. It would be bad show to let the rain fall on the head of a visiting diplomat, and any Marine on Presidential duty is honored to be there. This is not about the umbrellas, it is about treating visiting dignitaries with honor and respect. To only have an umbrella over the head of Prime Minister Orban would be a sign of superiority or strength over the visiting PM. The president did the correct thing in the situation by showing enough respect for his fellow leader and giving them both an equal platform.
Y’all need to stop freaking the fuck out over stupid shit like umbrellas.
pls.
also he didn’t think he even needed the umbrella, thus resulting in this picture of him checking if it was even raining even more aka my favorite picture of him ever:
Speaking as the son of a former Army officer, OP’s post is even more disrespectful towards the Marine in the photo - and the US military in general - than it is towards the President. It shows that literally the only part of being in the military OP has respect for is the part that involves killing others and that is not the biggest part of the military by a long shot and is not the part of military service most members joined for. People join the military to serve the nation, and part of that is stuff like this. There is a reason active duty military do not and are not supposed to discuss their opinions of a President during that President’s term. The President is the Commander in Chief regardless of who they actually are. Republican, Democrat, third party, no longer existent party: it does not matter. Being art of the White House guard and the Presidential detail, especially when a foreign dignitary or leader is present, is one of the biggest honors in the military.
But it’s a fucking umbrella, so complaining about it in the first place is massively moronic.
OP postin’ some Fox news Facebook level shit.
The OP is a complete moron. Having served and fought for this country, I have nothing but respect for the Marines in these photos. They serve the Commander in Chief. They are doing honorable work. There is no disrespect to these soldiers holding umbrellas any more than there is when they pull out the stairs on Marine One. Quit using soldiers to further your political ideals.
It’s also worth noting, that this is a pretty standard thing.
The outrage is drummed up bullshit.

I love Arrested Development but I have no love for its crazy fans who quote everything even the lines that are not that funny and talk about it all the time and make all their Facebook cover photos into screenshots from the show.
