Sounds like a joke Sam Kinison would have made.

Good one, subby!

Kim needs to be assassinated so the N Koreans can have a sammich

Haha

A North Korean scientist must say hello when entering their own empty lab.

It represents a technological breakthrough as soybean has previously proved difficult to turn into noodles it lacks starch, Chosun Sinbo said.

Apart from the engrish, this is a pretty good turn. But what about just eating the soy in the first place?

/Still doesn't approve of the thanatocracy.

I'm so hungry

Well, they'll still starve to death, but at least they'll FEEL absolutely stuffed.

Nice work, subby.

It breaks the 'half and hour and I'm hungry again' barrier most defiantly! This Glorious noodle shows the inferior West the true might of our water-boiled comestibles!

/You wanna starve to death on deceitful noodles?
//Oh great.
///Kim has 15 bowls for breakfast

...making the food by mixing soybean with corn, Chosun Sinbo, a pro-North Korean newspaper...

I read this as if it was made from old newspapers.

This is...just plain depressing. No snark today.

But can they grow enough soybeans?

What is the crop yield of soybeans per acre compared to to other crops?

Do they have proper climate, etc?

Sure, they can order their population to plant soybeans, but they can't order them to grow.

Hard to believe but entirely possible both N.Korea and Cuban tyrannies may fall before GWB leaves office. That would be a nice event to cap his presidency, which I believe is the most successful and substantive in 100 years, foreign policy-wise.

I have developed a grill that demands steak.

This sounds suspiciously like the FOOD(tm) from Good Omens. I gotta say, when it comes to world leaders Kim must take the prize for the truly bizzare. Imagine what growing up in a country where everyone is taught from birth that your father is basically God, and the sun rises and sets on his command. Thats gotta screw you up something fierce.

They've solved the problem of turning soybeans into noodles, instead of turning something disgusting like tofu or tempeh? Nice headline, but good for them anyway. Maybe a similar process could produce a high-protein soybean bread.

You have got to be farking kidding me. This is the best use of a euphemism I've seen in a while.

Guys! We're not starving our people, we're just feeding them noodles that delay their feeling of hunger! Brilliant!

I was just about to post the same thing. I thought he was being snarky, but he's from Florida, so it's just pure, unfiltered stupidity.

Something that will delay the feeling of hunger? Bah...been around for years. It's called meth. I suppose it could be baked into noodles though.

How long until they start abducting and processing political prisoners into soylent green? I'm not even joking. If it could happen anywhere, it'd be North Korea.

Aren't soybean noodles kinda, well, common already?

For those too lazy to read the article:

North Korea noodle to delay feeling of hunger: report

Posted August 23, 2008 23:00:00

North Korea, facing its worst food shortage in nearly a decade, has come up with a culinary innovation aimed at delaying the feeling of hunger - noodles made from crack cocaine, a report has said.

A research institute at the country's education ministry has succeeded in making the food by mixing cocaine with corn chips

Crack cocaine has never been consumed as a staple food outside of North America and it has been used only for side dishes while banging biatches, it said.

"When you consume ordinary noodles [made from wheat or prisoners], you may soon feel your stomach empty. But this crack noodle delays such a feeling of hunger," the paper said on its website.

In addition, the new noodle has almost five times more concentration-camp inmate byproduct than the normal noodles consumed by North Koreans, it said.

Politicians, playaz, and Wall Street traders have been visiting the research institute to learn about the noodle, it added.

A recent survey found up to half the people in North Korea were having to forage for foods and some were resorting to eating KFC.

Yo, Kim. Whatever you're doing, you're doing it wrong, dude.

but what happens when you lace it with laxatives?

would that create a vaccume???

now I know how ZPM's work. its all about the noodles, durrr.

YouPeopleAreCrazy: "Yo, Kim. Whatever you're doing, you're doing it wrong, dude."

It's called "Communism".

What could possibly make you think that short of extremely wishful thinking? You want to know when its likely N.Korea is goona implode you watch the N.Korean/Chinese border.

I hope so. Maybe he'll make beards and long hair fashionable for men again.

If only we imperialist dogs could develop a food that "delayed hunger."

Let me see now.North Korea's leaders, like Cuba's continue to strive to feed their citizens while the warmongering US puts a stranglehold and blockade around anything going into those countries. When the come up with an idea to feed them, you farkers laugh at them.

Who is the axis of evil here?

Of course the two differ in theory, it's just that the one is the demonstration model and the other is the one they actually want to sell you. Dyed in the wool communists will argue until they're red in the face (lol) that genuine communism would work, and my response is always "That may well be, but the transition leaves you wide open to strongmen establishing authoritarian rule." There will always be someone ready and willing to take up that mantle; When the implementation of your "brilliant on paper" idea entails taking the power from a small number of oligarchs and putting it into the hands of an even smaller number of government officials, you can't reasonably be surprised when you wind up in a gulag five years later.

So, he's got, what, ten weeks left to find bin Laden, bury Castro, and knock out Kim if he wants to hand over the reins to McCain?

Even the best C student can't cram that much before finals.

Back to your cave, troll.

So what is wrong with eating edible grasses and roots?
There was a time when natural gas was just burned off from oil wells.
It seems waste will always be around because of the stupidity of some people.

bachdog: Kim needs to be assassinated so the N Koreans can have a sammich

Kim needs to stay in power as long as possible, so does Communist Cuba, and hopefully Venezuela goes full commie. Already in your typical university history they say that the Soviet Union and China were dreamy worker's paradises, and have completly forgotten Stalin's purges, Mao's Cultural Revolution and Great Leap Forward, Pol Pot, etc., and your typical college kid isn't old enough to know any better... we need to keep a few Communist dictators around to starve, murder, and brutalize their people to act as a warning.

While the people in those countries will suffer horribly, their sacrifice will help keep the memory of the horrors of Communism alive for the rest of the world.

Retarded Rabid Elk: "While the people in those countries will suffer horribly, their sacrifice will help keep the memory of the horrors of Communism alive for the rest of the world."

This, although your impression of what is taught in "dem dang librul colleges" is pretty far off from reality.

It isn't. It is called a 'troll'. It is a concept where people post outlandish, insulting, or controversial statements in order to get a reaction. It is one of these new-fangled inter-tube concepts the kids are playing around with, these days.
