You know, whatever one does there are always downsides to a job well done. And those downsides usually lead to a lack of confidence and a bit of depression. But don’t let it get you down! If you first don’t succeed, try, try again. And the upside if you are a terrorist is that when you do succeed you have reached the pinnacle of your job cycle. Congratulations. (cue the balloons)

So, you got to ask Obama what it was like to be a terrorist. I’m surprised he opened up!
Your title reminded me of an old MAD magazine title: “The Heartbreak of TF” (terminal farting)

Sometimes. For some people. If you’re really desperate and take your family responsibilities seriously. The virgins, for some, are an added inducement, an answer to another kind of employment.

Hmmm. Do you think they give suicide bombers an exit interview?

LA, the answer to your question is YES. Tubularsock believes that all that business about those 72 virgins is part of that “exit interview”. Of course the Koran doesn’t specifically state specifically anything about these virgins but most Muslims and Christians don’t really read the Karan and Bible respectively. They only spout off about it with key general phrases even if they are incorrect.
It is just another trick of the HR department!
Thanks for your comment LA and if Tubularsock can answer any further questions about a possible new career path just let Tubularsock know.

I think it depends. If the terrorist is in a line at an airport and he is singled out by security, and they don’t have on-the-fly X-ray imaging that doesn’t give anybody cancer, they might indeed interrogate his exit. But if he manages to stay beneath the radar of surveillance, then for sure he gets no exit interview. I wish him all the best . . .

I, too, hate it when I shit too late. Usually in the morning, after taking my shower, but not that that usually happens, only that I usually hate it when it happens. Only thing is, I’m not sure how or whether my occasional psd(s) might tie into the topic at hand. Yes, we’re talking terrorism, I got that part. And speaking of terrorism, I would imagine that if you are thinking of blowing yourself up, you would want both to get the timing right with respect to your target and to go off ’empty,’ so to speak, so as not to impolitely bespatter to many innocent bystanders with, you know, the stuff of what used to be radio host John Tesh’s favorite topic of conversation. If cleanliness is close to godliness, and evisceration by detonation by implication gets you even closer, then going off with a clean colon surely guarantees something akin to absolute convergence — I mean, if I were religious and 72 virgins awaited me, that would be my line of reasoning, and come to think of it, even if I wasn’t religious but 72 virgins awaited me, well, ya, I’d want my shower after and not before, eh.
Soooo . . . what are we talking about? Did Obama admit to anything?

Speaking of terrorism:
72 virgins? I never did get this part of their utopia.
Give me one seasoned (knowing what the hell she is doing and loving it) woman. I’m not into training, especially in this area! Who needs to deal with seventy two, whether men or women? Christ, the divorce rate is seventy percent in major cities. It seems to me this would be hell rather than heaven!
Actually, let me revise this just a bit: my idea of heaven would not involve the bullshit gender-politics that always accompany sex! I mean who needs this shit for all eternity, isn’t sixty or seventy years of it enough?
Just some thoughts.

When it’s good, it’s good, whether with one, or with 72. In this world, it isn’t always good, and for many, on average, it isn’t any good. So I hear you . . . And yes, give me a seasoned partner over an apprentice if that’s my choice, but I’d make do with less if I had to, and no I’d rather not get into that, but for your sake, not mine, because I don’t want to be responsible for anyone cringing involuntarily. On the other hand, imagine 72 times what in your experience has been delightful, and you’re in the mood, and everyone is digging it, and . . . well . . . it’s a good fucking time, eh. But what were we talking about? I feel like I’ve zigzagged a bit off topic . . . Oh, yeah: terror. In reality, if the real terrorists ever decided to suicide themselves, wouldn’t that be grand! The warmongers, exploded to bits! Let me savor that thought for a moment or two.

Tubularsock does have to bring you out of “fantasy” here Norman. The real terrorism in male issues would center around “performing well” with 72 virgins as your work load!
Being “good” is relative and by 71 Tubularsock would be slowing down a little bit and thinking about jihad.

For everyone: The 72 virgins business is a bit of an urban myth, and most commentaries on the canonical texts do not support this (largely Western media) interpretation of the ‘houri’.

Interesting position statement, Norman. But Tubularsock would take the religious point of view here. Say if you, as a terrorist, enters into the terrorist attack “full” sort of speak and blow the shit out of yourself and everyone else you’d all join together all over the place. Thereby proving that we are all one anyway.
And if this occurred in “real-heaven” a shower BEFORE you partake would definitely be appreciated for sure. Not to mention putting all your pieces back together in the right places.

Absolutely! I think we should be suggesting this to Obama and his psycho owners and operators! Mass suicide! I’d be willing to help out, more than willing! In fact I have a quick way for them to dispatch themselves: it involves an island and one, large nuclear device!
Norm…,
“But what were we talking about? I feel like I’ve zigzagged a bit off topic . . . Oh, yeah: terror.”
This is a Tube post, zigzagging a bit off topic is part of the trip!
Norm…,
“On the other hand, imagine 72 times what in your experience has been delightful, and you’re in the mood, and everyone is digging it, and . . . well . . . it’s a good fucking time, eh. ”
Sure, in this case, it would be a great time. But my guess is, heaven isn’t much different from here, or worse, so… My 72 would all look like Rosanne Barr, but only with a worse personality, if that is even possible? In this case, the Tube might even start looking good!
But then again, I’m no prize either!
In conclusion:
Since all “the chosen” assholes are going to be in some kind of heaven/utopia, and I’m not allowed to go back to non-existence, I’ll take hell. Since a real hell, for me, would amount to this: being stuck with “the chosen” for ever and ever! 66 years of them have been more than I can stand!
How does that Billy Joel song go? Oh yeah:
“I’d rather die with sinners than live with the saints, the sinners are much more fun, But only the good die young!”
