#1 This stuff should be called the North Korean alternate reality mind warp effect.

#2 Why do we have to go to the KCNA to get upbeat news like this? There's never any good news in the MSM.

#3 The tricksy hobbitze wish to take the precious.

Isn't it diabolicle the way we bolster our invasion force of 30K soldiers by removing a third of them.

#4 Well, at least we got some songun and U.S. imperialists. But there is a complete lack of enthusiasm. Maybe a 6? I wonder if the poor diet is finaly catching up with the agit-prop crew?

#5 Lame, lame, lame. Only 2 good bits:
the U.S. worked out what it called the "operation plan 5027-04" LOL
The DPRK has powerful Songun armed forces
Overall, I give it a 1.5 (the old writers must have choked on the grass and dirt diet).

#6 The NorKie version of the "standing head". If you read KCNA everyday, it's in there. Every day.
They mail these in.

#7 This is merely additional proof that starvation impairs higher level brain functions.

#8 Operation Plan 5027-04

Curses! They found the Secret Plan™! Back to the drawing board. [*brainfart*] I know! We'll keep the same plan, justchange the number and put it back in a Secret Place™. That will keep them stumped for a while.[/*brainfart*]

#9 OK we won't use 5027-04.

Instead we'll unleash species 8472.

#10 It's missing key ingredients, needs salt and is way undercooked.

#11 OPLAN 5027-04:

OPLAN 5027 is the US-ROK Combined Forces Command basic warplan. Scroll down for different versions of 5027 throughout history, down to 04.

#12 Where would we be without John Pike & GlobalSecurity, eh?

#15 I miss the days of White Slag® and seemingly endless helpings of Juche. *sigh*

#16 The thing about the norks is that they are like a coal fire underground in Centralia. Just keeps on smouldering.

#17 *holds up card* 2.0 Points for Juche, but fouled out for failing to sufficiently brown-nose Dear Leader.

#18 I'm disappointed as well. Started promising with "recklessly ignite a war against the DPRK" and then no "sea of fire"

Lame. No grass on Friday.

#19 Notice, Rantburgers, that there is no more piss and vinegar, fire and brimstone in KCNA rants. *sniff* They must still have fire and brimstone in stock, but they are plumb out of piss and vinegar. Not having much of an apple crop will hurt vinegar production.
