Rule 5 Sunday: Columbus Day Edition

Posted on | October 11, 2015 | 25 Comments

— compiled by Wombat-socho

It’s that time of year again, when all manner of malcontents are coming out of the woodwork and complaining about the poor administrative skills and politically incorrect conduct of the Admiral of the Ocean Sea, going so far as to call for his day being renamed Indigenous Persons Day, or some such rot. As far as I’m concerned, all those butthurt Anglos are welcome to take their endemonised Protestant and/or atheist asses back to England, Germany, or whatever hellish heretic-filled holes their families originally came from, most of which are currently in the path of an Islamic Volkerwanderung. Serve them right. Anyhow, Columbus was originally from Genoa before he hired out to the King & Queen of Spain, and perhaps the best-known (certainly the most accomplished) actress from Italy is Sophia Loren, shown here expressing some concern that Jayne Mansfield’s huge tracts of land might erupt across the dinner table.

“Are those things secured?” she fretted.

This week I’d like to welcome Constantinople Not Istanbul to the leadoff spot with Rachel Weisz, followed by Goodstuff with Melania Trump, The Alchemist. Ninety Miles from Tyranny checks in with Hot Pick of the Late Night, Morning Mistress, and Girls with Guns; and Animal Magnetism favors us with Rule 5 Man Test Friday along with the Saturday Gingermageddon.

EBL’s herd this week includes Pepper Potts, Dana Delany, Grushenka from The Brothers Karamazov, and Imogen Carpenter.

Proof Positive’s Friday Night Babe is Rachel Uchitel, his Vintage Babe is the immortal Janet Leigh, Sex in Advertising is provided by Carl’s Jr., and of course there’s the obligatory 49ers cheerleader. At Dustbury, it’s Taylor Swift and Yuja Wang.

    It seems everyone wants to ruin Christopher Columbus’ biggest claim to fame. This time it’s a Chinese map that is threatening to rewrite history.

    Purchased from a Shanghai dealer in 2001 by Liu Gang for a mere $500, the map shows the world—including a well-developed picture of North and South America. While text on the map indicates it was drawn in 1763, it claims to be a copy of another map drawn in 1418.

    American continent is labelled phonetically “A-me-ri-ca” (????)

    The original map was cited as belonging to the great Chinese explorer, Zheng He, whose known travels include India and eastern Africa. However, the Chinese did not have an understanding of how to create a map projection at that time. In short, they didn’t even know how to make this map when it was supposed to have been drawn.

    Right, indigenous persons’ day. Let’s celebrate a bunch of people who never figured out the wheel.

    Oxford student feminist and racialist admits to committing rape.

    At least she (I think it’s a she) has the decency to denounce and exile herself.

    Sophia Loren made the excuse that she was afraid those things would fall out. I think it was more a matter of who was the center of attention.

    I’m undecided who to feature this week… Maybe Natalie Portman, who I think is this generation’s Audrey Hepburn.

    I suspect that she considered their blatant display crass and uncouth. Which it was, but that’s how we roll in America, baby!

    Exhibit A: The Kardashian/Jenner Circus.

    China then BURNED all their ships capable of making long range journeys not too long after Zeng He’s expedition. Which is why it doesn’t count like the Viking discovery doesn’t. All the Norse did was found colonies on Iceland and Greenland, the latter dying out completely by 1500, the former NEARLY dying out…

    Loren was not exactly modest herself. She was more modest in thatpic, but she was known for displaying her ample cleavage a time or two.

    Let the late, great Jimmy Durante have the final word:

    Norsemen built fishing/hunting/logging camps, not colonies

    Yes, because Iceland, Greenland, and Newfoundland don’t count.

    Neither does the various Kingdoms they conquered and/or established in Britain.
