"No more weird architecture"

"Chinese president Xi Jinping has called for an end to the "weird architecture" that has come as a result of China's construction boom."
"No more weird architecture" said Xi, reports the website of Chinese state newspaper the People's Daily – whose own new headquarters building came under fire last year after being compared to a giant penis.
 
"Fine art works should be like sunshine from the blue sky and the breeze in spring that will inspire minds, warm hearts, cultivate taste and clean up undesirable work styles," he said.
Like a Supreme Court Reenactment?

Maybe not.

Monica Lewinsky started tweeting.

How are the Clintons going to deal with her?

Stay tuned.

This is a great idea. Now we can use the dogs to edit Supreme Court audio tapes since they do not allow cameras and the skritchy-skratchy color pencil sketches provided make everyone look even worse, these dogs can make the Supremes at least look more interesting.

Sometimes the attorneys are talking so they'll need dogs for those too. Possibly monkeys.

It's a building in the shape of penis. How could the Chinese not know this? Well, that's because, I assure you this is the biggest penis they've ever seen. There is something to be said for tiny dicked chinamen. Stabby Stabby.

Of course they must simply be compensating, as every lesbian and half the women I know will tell you, especially if they are over 30 years old.

And what is so weird about it? There are over 500 million of those things in China, and this one is perfect, and in my opinion, exactly the right size.

It needs a sheath above it.

If the gheys says that's heteromormative, so be it.

What happens when the dick goes flaccid?

Does this building require constant oral stimulation to remain erect?

There was some building the Prince of Wales likened to a monstrous carbuncle.

Architecture.

If you need a public cause to justify your elite status, complaining about architecture is a pretty safe bet.

Diana, Princess of Wales got to tell the world that it's a bad thing that little impoverished peasant kids are getting their legs blown off by abandoned land mines.

Nobody's ever topping that. Ever.

I'm more irritated by the 'Is this building done or not?' look.
Is that it. or is that the scaffolding?

I have nothing against large penile architecture.

That one in London looks like a giant suppository.

...which is what those people need.

The upkeep must be taxing.

The upkeep must be taxing.

I don't know.

Are the Chinese known to be painstakingly meticulous?

Lem, I meant that you usually don't fluff things.

I did like that Supreme Court reenactment.

Of course some liked it in a way that is less than wholesome.
