‘The Idiotical’ Top 12 of 2011: #1

We've been counting down our top 12 posts of 2011, and it's finally time for #1! 2011 was yet another year when government officials just couldn't get out of their own way. Unlike the Harry Potter saga's conclusion, which thrilled millions of moviegoers, Barack Obama and John Boehner's continuing economic conflict shows no signs of resolving in a manner that will satisfy anyone at all. This post is from mid-July, and these two are still going at it!

To see the rest of the Top 12, click here. What did we miss? What was your favorite post of the year? Let us know in the comments!

Thanks for reading The Idiotical, and keep coming back in 2012 — it's a leap year, so that means we'll bring you .00273% more stupidity at no extra charge!

September 15: "More Nude Celebrity Photos from Hacked Phones"

This week, Scarlett Johansson became the latest celebrity to have her cell phone hacked and private nude photos of her leaked on the internet. As it turns out, the Johansson case is but the tip of the iceberg. Dozens of other celebrities have had their phone hacked, but the hackers have had the decency not to leak the photos obtained. Until now.

Editor’s Note: At the time of this posting, The Idiotical was unable to independently verify that these photos are real and not simply the work of a sick, twisted individual with Photoshop.

December 13: "Albert Pujols Bails on the Cardinals"

St. Louis Cardinals superstar Albert Pujols bolted from his team of 11 years for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (and $254 million over the next 10 years.) The former toast of the Gateway to the West is now the bane of their existence.

June 21: "The Disturbing Similarities Between New Al-Qaeda Leader Ayman Al-Zawahiri and New Today Host Ann Curry"

Recently Ayman Al-Zawahiri took over for Osama Bin Laden, and not-so-coincidently Ann Curry took over for Meredith Vieira. That got us to thinking…

    • Both work for large, poorly-run organizations.

    • Both are seen as bland, second-rate replacements for their popular predecessors.

    • Both frequently appear on camera droning on and on about nothing.

    • One works with Al Qaeda, the other with Al Roker.

    • Both are known for wild, unkempt beards (Curry waxes daily).

    • Both despise that tool Matt Lauer.

'The Idiotical' Top 12 of 2011: #12

All this week, we'll be selecting our 12 favorite posts of 2011! Granted, we just started this blog in June, and our standards are low, so we didn't have much to choose from. In fact, you might say we had "slim pickings." Nonetheless, we'll be adding at least one every day between now and the end of the year, so be sure to come back and see which posts we're least embarrassed to call our own.

Without further ado, here's #12...

July 12: "Michele Bachmann’s Lemon of a Pledge"

Republican Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann recently signed "The Marriage Vow", a “Christian” document which assails gay marriage and claims that black families were more stable during slavery than they are today. After a backlash, some of the more hateful language was removed, but not Bachmann’s endorsement.
