Piss on Osama bin Laden- Literally!"In fact, I opened the package containing this thing at the office, and not one of my female co-workers knew what it was."

An inflatable Osama with holes just where you like them?

I remember the "Piss on Iran" t-shirts in the early 80's. It's nice to see the US hasn't grown since then. posted by mathowie at 11:23 AM on October 9, 2001
I had a "Kaddafie" Duck tee-shirt with a picture of Momar superimposed over Daffy in the 80s ... posted by mfoight at 11:30 AM on October 9, 2001
This morning I saw a pickup with a sticker of the little pissing boy on the back window. Instead of the usual 'piss on [logo of other brand of pickup]', this one said 'Bin Laden'. Ohhh, clever. (For what it's worth, I drive a Corolla sporting a geek. bumper sticker) posted by tippiedog at 11:37 AM on October 9, 2001
"Here's another way Real Men can stand up to bin Laden and give him their best shot, right between the eyes -- and feel greatly relieved!"
If this is how Real Men (tm) stand up to bin ladin I'd hate to see how non-Real Men act. Probably too busy with their frilly things and tassles to properly use the urinal anyway. posted by skallas at 11:38 AM on October 9, 2001
Yeah, let's not forget who the real men are: the ones who have the courage to pee on inanimate objects. They're America's real heroes. posted by transient at 11:51 AM on October 9, 2001

not to forget, of course, the legions of patriots weilding mad photoshop skillz and singing 'day-o'. bin laden must certainly be quaking in his army boots. posted by quonsar at 12:07 PM on October 9, 2001
they should forget about the war and just have more symbolic burning-in-effigy stuff like this. and who doesn't enjoy a good Ayatollah Assahollah t-shirt anyhow? posted by destro at 12:31 PM on October 9, 2001
what about the legions of patriots weilding mad flash skillz and singing 'wheeeeeeee'? posted by kevspace at 12:34 PM on October 9, 2001
skallas,
i think non-Real men sit down to tinkle. posted by donkeysuck at 1:18 PM on October 9, 2001
Over-react much folks? It's humor. posted by Mick at 1:50 PM on October 9, 2001
I just snooped on the market for novelty urinal screens and found a church that seems to think printing its own logo on them is an effective promo-tool.
Quite active in brand-building-for-god, they also think walking into a diner and declaring ''we'd like to clean your restroom for free!'' is missionary magic. Although, on that note they state 'There's nothing magical about the technique here'. And what to do if your unsuspecting future heavenly acquaintance refuses the goodwill gesture? 'No matter. Give them your connection card, smile, and say, "OK! We'll come back some other time and clean when you need it. We're just trying to show you God’s love in a practical way."
Scrubbing for god with a heavenly bog-brush. Beats an AK47 i suppose. posted by Kino at 4:20 PM on October 9, 2001
Where did you find that image, jpoulos? Blast from the past.
I was going to mention that I remembered the Ayatollah Khomeini urinal targets (that jpoulos has somehow found a pic of) from the 70's (!) and thinking they were moronic then. Osama BL targets are no less so now.
The next step will see that of seeing the burgeoning Osama® product line hit your nearest grocery store very soon. 10% of profits destined to sustain the US Army troop cause out there...
I know, we all would have wished to be the ones with the idea. posted by betobeto at 8:40 PM on October 9, 2001
I think you remember that image from somewhere else, stavros. posted by jjg at 9:03 PM on October 9, 2001
Also, I recall a time when "the little pissing boy" on truck windows was better known for other things. Bill Watterson would be spinning in his grave, if he were dead. Instead he must be spinning in whatever it is retired cartoonists spin in. posted by jjg at 9:07 PM on October 9, 2001

Sorry - I meant that I didn't remember the image per se, just the fact that the Ayatollah pee targets existed, in Northern Canada at least...a week later, but dammit I'm a stickler for...something or other. Being right, at all times, most likely.
