But I’d want one anyway, if I still had a cubicle to decorate. 🙂
If this is satire, it’s damned funny. If not, it’s…funnier.
Far too expensive, though. Six bucks for shipping? Ripoff.

Scary Manifesto that keeps getting pushed down on the sidebar by filthy capitalism!
They say that Louis XIV had the inscription Ultima Ratio Regum cast into all the cannon of the French Army. It means “The Ultimate Argument of Kings,” and that always struck me as one of the most honest and up-front things any ruler or would-be ruler ever said. “We can dress it up prettier than this, but when it comes down to the unvarnished truth this is what it’s about: You’ll do as I say or I’ll send my goons to kill you.”
I thought about that for a long time. If there’s an ultimate argument, it seems only logical that there must be an ultimate answer. For years I thought the ultimate answer must be the bullets in my rifle, but it never seemed quite right. I’ve got bullets – he’s got frigging Cannon Balls. I mean, if there were three hundred million rifles throwing bullets at him, then maybe. But we all know that’s not going to happen. So if there’s an ultimate answer to his ultimate argument, it sure as hell ain’t bullets.
It finally came to me – and that’s when I abandoned the city and most of my stuff, and gave all that was behind me a good stiff Randian Shrug.
The ultimate answer to kings is not a bullet, but a belly laugh.

I think it’s satire all teh images are here http://liartownusa.tumblr.com
Yeah, looks like you’re right. Thanks for spoiling it for me, Joat! 🙂
$21. for a calendar? Not a prayer, no matter how cute. I get a calendar from the grocery store each year and put it on the refrigerator. Most months I remember to tear off the old page within a week or two… Once I read the “recipe” of the month and darn near choked. Who in heck needs a “recipe” to put scrambled eggs on toast? Good grief. The kitties would be more fun, but I’m too cheap to buy such a thing. Think of how much ammo you can get with 21 bucks. I got boxes of Hornaday JHP for $17. each last time… 🙂 What can I say?
The expanded description is the best part.
“Here at LAST is a calendar that urges you to lean in really close and actually drink the sweet, pathetic tears RIGHT OFF YOUR OPPRESSORS’ STUBBLED CHEEKS!”
Made me chuckle. When I had a cubicle in a secure area (card keys, PINs, man traps, alarms, video cameras, etc.) the area above my desk had what I thought was amusing. A non-secure-area passerby who could just barely see it was offended. Personal items of any kind were then disallowed for everyone. That calendar would’ve caused apoplexy.
