TILT! TILT FOR THE SEA BEASTS!

Nothing inspires compassionate head-tilting more than a war of liberation. Nothing, that is, except for whales:

He’s almost at the 45 degree optimum tilt.

image

Teach your children well, as a band of useless hippies once advised. And if you can’t, teach them to tilt.

image

Now that’s a power fist!

image

Tilt on, doobie-loaded Tilt Mon!

image

Note to newbies: it’s you who must tilt, not your sign.

image

Can’t tilt? Then yell! Whales love it.

image

Compassion is best signalled by a lateral tilt.

image

Tilters in love!

image

It is possible, evidently, to tilt and be cool.

  1. Man, the n00b is too stupid to get a real haircut even, look at those bangs, worst I’ve ever seen, I’d be ashamed to go outside.

  2. Hmmm.

    And if you’re an attractive young woman, with obvious appendages, then please hold the sign BELOW the breasts.

    Thank you.

    The Management.

  3. I want one that says:

    Eat the Whales

    Or perhaps:

    Use Whale Blubber: The Natural Fuel

  4. What am I missing? I thought it was the Japs were 86ing the big beasts. Is it Koreans instead? Are those dirty Koreans killing Moby Dick? If so, where can I buy whale meat here in Seoul, ‘cause it is oh, so delicious.

  5. Ahh, the tilt while gazing thoughtfully at one’s own sign - that’s primo tilt.

  6. I can’t wait till Treacher gets ahold of these.  Especially #s 3 and 4.

  7. Save the whales. For dinner.

    You can’t take a whale home?

  10. There is a saying:

    Smart people eat smart animals.

    And whales are smart animals.

  11. What, no mention of Australian whales?  Bigots.

    Posted by RebeccaH on 2005 06 09 at 02:52 PM • permalink

  12. Happy to oblige, RebeccaH -

    Nuke the poofter whales for Jesus!

  13. I still like “Divert Iraqi Oil into the Whale-Infested Oceans.”

  14. “No whaling”?!

    Ever?

  15. Compassionate head tilts are all well and good, but even Admiral James T. Kirk knew that saving the whales meant talking softly and buzzing whalers with a captured Klingon Bird of Prey.

  16. I have a plan.  I just need a sign written in Katakana which says:

    Hello Japan. I am a stupid fuckhead.

  17. Andrea, #7 - got any cooking tips? I’ll trade you my nana’s recipe for stewed wombat.

  18. If you do it right, you’ll get a tilt in return.

  19. I wish the left would get some consistency on all this!!
    At a council meeting I went to on Wednesday night an ALP councillor voted against starting a petition to stop commercial whaling with some reasoning that he had happily eaten dolphin when he was an exchange student in Japan.
    He he he! This has been one of my old favourites for aggravating lefties. Telling them you’d like to taste whale meat. No better way to get that “I hate this RWDB opposite me” look.

    Posted by Hank Reardon on 2005 06 09 at 09:05 PM • permalink

  20. Hank, I love your approach! I like to point out that telling the Japanese and Norwegians what they can and can’t eat is a great example of western cultural imperialism. Works a treat.

    Posted by Art Vandelay on 2005 06 09 at 09:15 PM • permalink

  21. Yeah, why are the signs in Korean? Did they just find the nearest Asian and say please write “Save the Whales” in your native language?

    “Save the Dogs” would have been more appropriate, I believe.

    Posted by DrZin on 2005 06 09 at 09:27 PM • permalink

  22. Murph, you want it written in katakana, or kanji? I may be able to help you out, although “fuckhead” would be wanting for a literal translation.

    Posted by DrZin on 2005 06 09 at 09:29 PM • permalink

  23. 나는 외국 바보 이다.

    The above is what these wankers should have on their signs. (“I am a foreign fool.”)

    Posted by Tommy Shanks on 2005 06 09 at 09:37 PM • permalink

  24. This is Korean for fuckhead in all dialects.

    Posted by Habib on 2005 06 09 at 09:43 PM • permalink

  25. Indeed, Habib.

    Posted by Tommy Shanks on 2005 06 09 at 09:55 PM • permalink

  26. Art, great line! Mind if I steal that one?

    Posted by PW on 2005 06 09 at 10:09 PM • permalink

  27. ah! make it Kanji

    Posted by murph on 2005 06 09 at 11:50 PM • permalink

  28. Help yourself PW!

    I like to follow it up with something like:

    “imagine the reaction if Hindus decided they were so offended by westerners eating cows that they decided to set up an International Commission on Bovines which used emotional blackmail to ensure other countries did not consume beef products”

  29. He’s almost at the 45 degree optimum tilt.

    He also looks slightly stoned.

    It is possible, evidently, to tilt and be cool.

    Quite obviously a Rovian plant.

  30. well the japanese can eat their whales if they want to - but they can’t have aussie whales as i need them for my new pet food plant to be set up on the site of the port fairy folk festival

  31. Here’s a pretty good tilt on a bloke who’s just snared a nice cryovac pack of Humpback haunch. Yum!

    Posted by Habib on 2005 06 10 at 07:56 AM • permalink

  32. Perhaps all the head-tilters in Korea should be protesting about this, but it might make their heads tilt like this.

    Posted by Habib on 2005 06 10 at 08:12 AM • permalink

  33. Only a Sith deals in absolutes!

    NOOOOOOOOOO!! to whale hunting!

  35. Number 4’s sign actually says “Save the Chavs, Burberry Rights NOW!”

  37. 日本こんにちは!僕はすごい阿呆です!

    Basically, “Hello, Japan! I’m an incredible idiot!” Varying degrees of potency depending on region.

    Posted by DrZin on 2005 06 10 at 08:30 PM • permalink

  38. My Presbyterian Korean wife did an enjoyable double-take at the sight of those signs.  She’s trying to explain the Korean pun about whales and circumcision in the signs now, slaughtering the joke with her Konglish.

  39. Pixy Misa: No a la caza de ballenos
    ‘No room at my place for whales’?

    I may be able to fit a calf Minky in the kids’ bedroom.

  40. ‘caza’ means ‘hunting’, Mr Google tells me.

  41. That’s not a tilt.  This is a tilt.

  42. What does it say in the corner of the little girl’s sign?

    Green Feces? [need glasses…]
