7 Evil Movie Dictators Who Should Be Shot In The Street

7 Evil Movie Dictators Who Should Be Shot In The Street:

Earlier today, rebel forces dragged Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi into the streets and publicly executed him. Not looking so tough now, Occupy Wall Street.

Gaddafi ruled over Libya for 42 years until his people grew tired enough of his rule that they banded together and ousted him. This, of course, is one of the risks of dictatorship. The trade-off is that you get to live in a palace and keep lions as pets. Still, you could do that as a heavyweight boxer too. I guess dictating requires less hours in the gym.

The point that I should have got too dozens of words ago is that dictators are bad. Movies taught me that. In fact, why don’t you go ahead and read the seven evil movie dictators that deserve to be shot in the street. If you want to that is. No pressure from me. It’s a free country.

M. Bison – Street Fighter

M. Bison is proof that powe taken by force corrupts the soul. He started his evil career in the drug trade like so many others do, and rose through the ranks to the position of drug lord. With a fictional South East Asian nature under his thumb, it wasn’t long before he took the title of General and held humanitarians for ransom.

Bullies like this make me ill. And Jean Claude Van Damme can’t always be around to give them their comeuppance. It’s up to us — we, the people — to band together and shut down a threat like this. No matter the cost.

General Garza – The Expendables

As far as brutal dictators go, General Garza is kind of a pussy. He’s easily pushed around by Eric Roberts and Stone Cold. Hey Garza, whose island is it anyway?! He deserved to be dragged into the street because of this lack of force. Oppress or get off the pot!

Apple Co-Founder Steve Jobs Passes Away At 56

from App Advice by Alexander Vaughn

Apple Co-Founder Steve Jobs Passes Away At 56:

Folks, I’m deeply saddened to announce to you today the death of Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple at the age of 56.

Needless to say, this is a very sad day for the world of technology, and beyond. Steve Jobs, through his creations such as the iPhone, the Mac, the iPad as well as many others, has trully enriched our lives, and made the world a better place many times over. I believe this was what he set out to do in this life, and has without a doubt achieved it — better than anyone ever has.

In his honor, Apple has setup a special site on Apple.com at http://apple.com/stevejobs, with an email address (rememberingsteve@apple.com) that you can use to share your thoughts, memories and condolences.

In his memory, we’d like to share with you what we believe is one of his most inspiring public appearances, that will hopefully impact your life as much as it has ours; his commencement speech at the University of Stanford in 2005:

Here is the official press release from Apple and his family.

Here at AppAdvice we have long admired Steve Jobs and we are deeply saddened by his passing as we are sure many of you are. To mourn we will take a moment of silence to Mr. Jobs, feel free to share your memories or remember as you see fit.

Rest in peace, Steve.

Ikea Debuts Mänland, a Daycare for Men While Women Shop

2011-09-20T18:00:00.000-05:00

from AdFreak by Tim Nudd

Ikea Debuts Mänland, a Daycare for Men While Women Shop:

Men hate to shop. It's a truism that Bud Light ads have hammered into us for decades. Ikea has absorbed it, too, and come up with a novel solution in its Australian stores. It's launched a special in-store area called Mänland, a kind of daycare where husbands and boyfriends can hang out with their own kind (i.e., other Cro-Magnon morons) while their wives and girlfriends shop. Judging by the video below, this makes everyone happy—particularly the guys, who don't seem to mind the suggestion that they're essentially imbecilic toddlers who need to be dropped off and picked up like they're still in preschool. The area is even modeled off the actual Ikea toddler-care area—and women are given a buzzer to remind them to collect their significant other after 30 minutes of shopping. (Instead of arts and crafts, the guys play foosball and Xbox games, watch sports, and eat free hot dogs.) It's a nice little PR gambit, and it got lots of play in the Australian media—and would surely be a hit in the U.S. too. Because really, the men aren't needed until the assembly phase anyway.

Unless you happen to work in a ninja weapons factory, I think you’re better off coming up with a super-alias the old-fashioned way.
