Conan O’Brien Sorta Looks Like Finnish President Tarja Halonen
I know, I know… this is a cheesy steal. I stole this idea off of some popular blog that does this everyday. I was trying to shamelessly get blog traffic. ~Scholar Mel Sept 04, 2011
So what do you think? Does Conan look like President Halonen?
[This is part of The Unappreciated Blog Posts series]
Recycling old blog posts – what a great idea !
(wish I’d thought of it first)
Most of the drivel I put up in Madhatters takes all of 5-10 minutes to dash off – without much thought (often spend longer trying to come up with a clever title than I do on the post itself).
Yet occasionally I’ll take the time to compose something properly – doing background reading, planning the structure of the post, presenting the arguments in a logical manner, spending time to select just the right words to convey the meaning I intend, searching for just the right graphic to illustrate the post, only to find I get a dozen or more comments on something I spent 10 minutes on and no friggin comments on a post I spent 1/2 a day preparing. Ggrrrr – bloody readers !!!
From what I have seen most people don’t want to read a ton. They want to read something that is super quick.
People don’t read blogs, they skim blogs.
I know how you feel Duncanr. I have taken the time to write blog posts that I feel like I should have made money on.
What do I get in return for all of that hard work? No comments and no money
Golden Rule of blogging: People love cotten candy
He does look like her. In drag. But I’m not sure if he’s in drag or she’s in drag. Is it that he looks like a woman or she looks like a man. I can barely tell them apart
Conan is not a real manly man but President Halonen is no where near womanly!
I don’t know, I think she’s kinda hot in that Maggie Thatcher kind of way….
For those of us you don’t know Maggie Thatcher, here she is in all her hotness.
Good Lord, are you people REALLY so young you don’t remember The Iron Lady? Good grief, what is this, a blog for 20-somethings?
(Stomps off, grumbling about “young punks”.)
Way top ostracize your readers Mel
blahahaha
Attention all Dummy readers, I hereby ostracize you to Dummies of the Year!
Ostracized? I don’t feel long-legged or long-necked, but I have been flightless for a while….
Hardy-har-har
Hahaha… are you a member of Team Tartar, Mel?!
What the heck is Team Tartar? Again, people, I was sheltered has a child and may need assistance in a few things.
I think Conan had come up with a ‘Team Coco’ thing for his fans… sorry, Mel… that last comment wasn’t really worded to well…
D-oh! I probably also should have mentioned I was trying to create a similar word play with ‘Tarja’ and Tartar… yikes… I’m really doing well today, aren’t I?!
an “H” changes the whole meaning of what I was trying to say.
Thanks for explaining your word play.
Blahahaha Spilled Ink, keep Mel guessing
I think maybe SpilledInkGuy should change his name to SpilledMilkGuy
They do look similar. I would need to hear her tell a joke or see him lead Finland to really make an accurate judgment of whether they were the same person.
I think maybe Conan OBrien IS Finnish President Tarja Halonen.
Dag, they do look very similar.
I’ll take Conan and raise you Duncan/Ayatollah
