Doritos Recognizes Palestine!?!
Sent in by an alert reader. I found my bag of Doritos the other night and while I was trying to get all those Doritos fragments, I guess I got tired so I crumbled the bag up and thats when I saw the word “Palestine” of all things. The back of the bag recognizes Palestine [...]
How Much Do You Really Know About Those “Arabs” Who Ran Away From Israel in 1948?
So far, 3 of us KABOBers (Will, Mohammad and myself) took this quiz and none of us passed. Our madrassaaaaaah education has failed us, that’s why they kicked us out into the infidel world of secular education. If you take it report your scores in the comments section. And do not Google any of the [...]
KABOBnews: New KABOBers and Removing Buydatti
There are some recent personnel changes here at KABOBfest that I want to report. First of all, we added two new freedom-hating terrorist sympathizers to our menu. Please welcome: sunbula and Sama We will be working on short bios for them for the About Us page. But, in the mean time know this: sunbula is [...]
Saddam #2
The Egyptian (relatively) independent newspaper Al-Masry Al-Youm (The Egyptian Today) has a variety piece on an Alexandrian by the name of Mohammed Bashar, 58 who happens to be a “screaming lookalike” (shabah saarikh) of Saddam Husain. Many a time has he walked down the street and people stare at him, then ask God to have [...]
The Logic of Liking Stuff White People Like
The hottest new site on the internet since two girls and a cup — which starred Budatti’s Mom — is a list of stereotypically white objects of affection. Since this e-mails lauding this site began landing in my Inbox with more frequency than uninvited cialis ads, I took time to analyze it myself in a [...]
Your Voice Counts: Vote in a New Blogger
So, normally new posters here at KF are kind of voted in by the current roster of posters — we are an emerging democracy ourselves — but this time we will open it up a little. This time KABOBfest commentators have a chance to vote on a new, proposed poster. I received an e-mail application [...]
Proof the Internet is Racist
So, someone sets up a blog about things white people like one month ago, and already it is getting more hits than our blog, which is basically about what Arabs like. It just lists anti-white stereotypes such as their supposed affinity for natural medicine (which the Arabs invented), recycling, and coed sports. Here at KABOBfest, [...]
Focus on Pre-History, I Guess
Do not ask me why, but I was browsing job announcements at H-Net. OK, it was to avoid my current work. But, randomness is keeping me sane tonight. I came across a fellowship posting at the University of Chicago: Postdoc Fellowship in Digital History. The Department of History at the University of Chicago seeks applications [...]
Cut Undersea Cables Boost KABOBfest Hits
As counter-intuitive as this may sound, the recent cuts in now five, yes count them, five, underwater cables in the Middle East has led to an increase in KABOBfest hits. KABOBfest senior statistician Chaim Sugarman tracked a nearly 25% increase in daily hits since the cable cuts started mysteriously appearing, all within a week or [...]
Top Ten (Plus 2) Reasons Why Having Your Phone Stolen Doesn’t Suck Too Much
Last Thursday night/early Friday morning, I learned the hard lesson that the dangerous cocktail of bartop dancing and a carefree attitude towards material possessions in a club don’t mix too well. During my “intoxicated” state of mind, as I was shimmying what “my momma gave me” to some Hakim, someone swiped my purse (with the [...]
