    In reply to Ahmed Wali Karzai: Afghani Gangster
    The problem with the Times article is that it focuses too much on the CIA connection and not enough on all of the dirty pies that Ahmed has his dirty little fingers in. Pretty sure that its CIA policy to have at least one paramilitary group per country and the guys that run them generally have some skeletons in their closet (or back yard, neighborhood sewage plant, etc.). The real story would be to prove the drug connection beyond the Quack Standard. Get Hamid’s brother on tape doing his Ahmed Escobar shtick and you win yourself a Prize. #afghanistan

    FYI Mr. Writer of this post: 'Afghani' is the currency of Afghanistan. 'Afghan' refers to the people. Oh, sh**, I'm just noticing that another commenter noticed the error, too.

    Nice one 'Procrastination_Stat!' #afghanistan

    "Afghani" refers to the currency of Afghanistan; "Afghan" refers to the nationality, ethnicity, hound, or blanket.

    Regardless, yes, a sketchball. #afghanistan

    Assuming the patch is using "Pagans" as a plural nominal adjective rather than a possessive, the apostrophe shouldn't be there.

    For want of a nail . . .

    @Smitros: You raise an interesting issue.

    I would contend that the emblem is actually an indication of ownership by the wearer. For example I know that one can "get stomped" for wearing the logo of a motorcycle club, if one is not a member of the "M.C." Accordingly, I suggest that the possessive is not properly punctuated because the patch actually belongs to the society rather than the individual. Therefore, it should read "Pagans M.C.'s" But somebody needs to get Bookish up in this motherfucker.

    Also, I once watched Sons of Anarchy.

    @saythatscool:
    The plural possessive would also work. And for any Pagans reading this, I wish to note that I am merely trying to be servicey and do not want to get stomped.

    Join us, so in six months we can discard you like the disposable trash you are, due to our antiquated business model that plays directly to our delusions that gangsta creative makes us cutting edge.

    This is less offensive than the ComfortClogs™ commercial where 50 Cent humps an elderly nurse.
