Yeah, crazy people write to me, too.
Hello dear Ladies and Gentlemen!
I would like inform you that Scarlett Johansson “actress” actually is a clone from original person Scarlett Galabekian last name, who has nothing with acting career,
surname Galabekian, because of adoption happened in 1992. Clones was created illegally by using stolen biological material. Original person is very nice (not d**n sexy), most important – CHRISTIAN young lady! I’ll tell you more, those clones (it’s not only one) made in GERMANY – world leader manufacturer of humans clones, it is in Ludwigshafen am Rhein, Rhineland-Palatinate, Mr. Helmut Kohl home town. You can not even imaging the scale of the cloning activity. But warning! Helmut Kohl clone staff strictly controlling all their clones (at least they trying) spreading around the world, they are very accurate with that, some of them are still NAZI type disciplined and mind controlled clones, so be careful get close with clones you will be controlled as well. Original person is not happy with those movies, images, video, rumors and etc. spreading on media in that way it would be really nice if we all will try slow down that ”actress” career development, original Scarlett will really appreciated that. Please remember that original Scarlett Galabekian family did not authorize any activity with stolen biological materials, no matter what form it was created in it was and it is stolen. It all need to be delivered to authorize personals control in Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Original Scarlett never was engaged, by the way!Her close friend Serge G.
P.S. CONTROLLING ACTIVITY OF ANY CLONES IS US MILITARY OPERATION.
So, I’m sure everyone wants to know…what is the mailing address of this cloning factory in Ludwigshafen am Rhein? Are they taking orders for Scarlett Johannsen clones? Do they have any other models in stock?
AJ Milne says
I dunno. It’s weird, but I’m not sure it quite holds up to those nutters worshipping the 2,000 year old zombie what does the water-inta-alcoholic beverage thang at weddings…
I mean, that shit’s freaky weird, I’ll tell ya…
action kate says
So the clone’s real name is Jordan Two Delta, and if she’s really good, she gets to go to The Island? and make out with Ewan McGregor?
Gruesome Rob says
Be careful what you ask for, the trophy wife may make some orders too…
James says
I’ll take two! Oh, I’d also like a Jenna Malone if they’re taking orders.
tsig says
Frankly my dear, i don’t give a damn.
Chupacabras says
I could tell a clone from the real thing: they don’t blink!

I disagreed with her about something before I realized she had issues and she accused me of being a Nazi and after she was ranting for a while asked where we were going again…

I’ll hafta ask my friend again if the weirdo got escorted out of the building or what. I wonder if this dude was the one who dreamt up the conspiracy or if he just read it on the internet and jumped aboard…

catgirl says
The most important question is why did they clone the original Scarlett to make movie-star Scarlett? It’s not like she’s the best actress ever, and it seems like it would be much, much easier to get an actress the old-fashioned way, rather than coming up with some vast conspiracy. Also, if some people can come up with this amazing secret cloning factory, do you really think they’d be dumb enough to risk blowing it all by giving the clone the same first name as the original?
But if it really is true, I want to place my order for two Brad Pitt clones, and one each of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
MZ says

Or maybe just a non-native English speaker. There are crazies in other countries, too. In fact, perhaps moreso. They just aren’t overwhelmingly Christian. The Raelians are from France, and look at all the 9/11 Truthers in Europe. Much higher percentage than in the US.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaghhh! I had almost forgotten about Scarlet’s catterwaulin’ of Tom Waits tunes. As Ernest said in Ernest Goes to Camp: “Don’t pick it or it will never heal.” “It” being the scabbed over wound in my brain where the Scarlet sings Tom Waits had almost mended.
And here’s Ernest again with a spot on appraisal of Scarlet’s vocal ability.
And as long as everyone’s airing their clone wish list, permit me to add mine:
1. Anna Fulchi, circa “Cemetary Man/Dellamorte Dellamore.”
2. Linda Harrison, circa “Planet of The Apes.”

I’ll warn you all right now, so you don’t have to suffer as I did. The Ludwigshafen am Rhein Rhineland-Palatinate clone manufacturer produces very poor quality sub-par clones.

2)Can they be customized to find me attractive?
3)Do they come with a collectible carrying case? (I only have two bedrooms and limited shelf space.)
3)Is there a rental program, like ‘Cloneflix’? I think I’d eventually get tired of Farrah Fawcett.
4) Are they worth more iof kept unopened in the original packaging?
5) How much can I get for my soul on a trade-in for Milla Jovovitch? (It’s never been used.)

If you are going to be delusional at least be uniquely delusional sheesh. Delusions based movies is so cliche’

catta says
Why would you get flamed? It’s a legitimate question.
What’s up is that just because the majority of the population isn’t going to any church they don’t stop believing stupid things. So much for people from Germany. The woo is strong here because they ended up favouring other stupid beliefs over Christianity. Fairly predictable.
In fact, I’m sure that if all belief in Christianity vanished from the US overnight, most people would be busy with spiritualism, astrology, crystal healing and all manner of woo the very next day.
As to Scientologists ranting about Germany, it’s because they’re not recognized as a religious organisation, are under surveillance and are generally considered both dangerous and solely a money-making operation by the courts. The fact that they simply want the status most financially advantageous to them in any given country, and that they specifically tried to register as a non-religious organisation in other countries, does not stop them from repeating over and over again that we’re all JUST LIEK TEH NAZIS!
And blaming Germany in general? Simple. The passing of a couple of decades doesn’t stop a perfectly good outdated stereotype from being useful. Nazi Germany was pretty much the last major universal antagonist within Europe. Unless any Western European countries enter into a large-scale long-term military conflict, Germany will stay the preferred scapegoat for dozens of conspiracy theories.
That said, in this specific case, I suspect it was initially a hangup about BASF (omg evil chemicals!), which happens to be situated in Ludwigshafen. The fact that Helmut Kohl (now faded into obscurity) was born there and the addition of “am Rhein” suggests that the writer has been reading up on the city but can’t distinguish relevant from irrelevant facts. Also, good ol’ Serge has three blogger blogs, each with a different title, each with the exact same post as above as the sole entry.
…hooray, I guess. Now excuse me while I instruct my uniformed state-sponsored clone slave to clean the living room (oooh what a giveaway!).
liquidthinker says
This looks pretty ummmm… reasonable to me. I wonder why we can not “image” the scale of the cloning activity? Does this cloning process produce destructive interference patterns with electromagnetic radiation? Either way, I’m sure as long as the clones are strictly controlled, we should be o.k. Helmut Kohl knows what he’s doing.
On the other hand, you can tell from the grammar that Serge G. is a time traveler. So, perhaps he will have known something we do not?

Incidentally, the Catholic Church sees human cloning as a “grave offense to the dignity of that person as well as to the fundamental equality of all people”.
Yes, by making something equal to other people (clone) that apparently offends the equality of all people.

I never got into Scarlett Johansson because I first saw her in Ghost World and found Thora Birch to be way cuter.
catta says
Spare me. If it makes you happy, insert *Western* Europe.
The USSR may have been one of major antagonists in the Cold War, but I don’t think it’s easily compared to Germany/WWII, among other reasons because of the nature of Cold War. Go to a football game, talk to elderly British or French people, spend some drunken evenings in pubs. You’ll hear a great many rants about WWII and Nazis but nary a mention of Russia. Why do you think that is? Is it because we’re all Socialists here?
I still hold that the last long-term armed conflict within Europe that had a major impact on how the participants are viewed in today’s Western Europe was WWII. There’s a reason “Nazi” is a universal(ly accepted) insult, if an easy one (see also Godwin’s law), while calling someone a Communist just makes you look paranoid.

You’re lucky. I get Nigerians who want to put $24 million in my bank account and “British solicitors” who tell me in remarkably bad English about how my unknown uncle “Carles” died, leaving me £50 million and they’ll send it to me if I will pay the £100 “probait” fee.

Can I have a 20 year old Kate Bush please and yes I will have the optional extra nymphomania gene.
Please EXPRESS post.

Well it’s obvious – since the clone isn’t blessed with a God Given Soul(tm) it can’t be a proper person, so it must be a slave. It’s all proper and stuff; it says so in The Good Book(tm). Think of it as a Golem made from really high-class clay.

DOCTOR Helmut Kohl? Puh-leeze.
CLEARLY it should be TINFOIL Helmet Kohl. Badda-bing!
Oh, and I’ll take another Alan Rickman.

If she swore, and I pushed her over a cliff, would I be charged with making an obscene clone fall?
Davey says
I just googled an image of Scarlett Johannsen. Dayamn! Where can I get ME one of them clones?
Charlie Foxtrot says
Put me down for two Keira Knightly-s, a Kylie Minogue, and a baker’s dozen of Jessica Alba-s.
Just invoice me.

GERMANY – world leader manufacturer of humans clones
something tells me our email author saw “The Boys From Brazil” and thought it was a documentary.
Ichthyic says
…something tells me I should have read the many previous comments to that effect first.
:P

Does Germany have a stripper factory too?

Re 126
These seem reasonable. It just all reminds me of this woman:

Germany seems like a neurosis sometimes. Maybe I’ve just been listening to too much Kraftwerk…

It’s a well known fact that clones only last 18 months. Don’t waste your money on this.
Psychodigger says
I gotta get me one!

I just got a copy of ePostMailer from http://Spryka.com and I would recommend to anyone who needs to send out an opt-in email mailshot. Its the best free desktop based email marketing software I have used so far.

Hmmm, my grandfather is from Ludwigshafen-am-Rhein, and I don’t remember him reporting any cloning activity last time he was there…
BlindRobin says
Sounds like a job for moose and squirrel.

It’s called an apostrophe, lady! Use it!

“It’s a well known fact that clones only last 18 months. Don’t waste your money on this.”
So do goldfish. Sometimes it’s a blessing. As long as they don’t decide to go on a killing spree at the end of it.
Still, a clone may well stop up the toilet if you try and “bury them at sea”.
BZ says
It looks like SCIENTOLOGY stuff :D aliens clones ,…
How comes that the clone got such a talent but the original is a f* up christian! ?
Rev. BigDumbChimp says
I remember the last time we had a goldfish go on a killing spree.
It was horrible.
JJR says
Can I get the Tricia Helfer clone, Model #6 (naturally)…?
PeeJ says
“But don’t get too excited – cloning process takes about ten to fourteen years … then there is the subconcious conditioning…”
Not when you use the RXL-313 Ontogenerator!

Fortunately, the little bastard was a lousy shot and took so long to reload that we were able to rush him.
Bone Oboe says
I wonder if I could ammend my clone wish list to include Xenia Seeburg, from the show LEXX.
Get those filthy Tleilax…er, (un-filthy) Germans to fire up those axlotl tanks…I mean Clone-o-matic machines on the double.
Pun realized, but not intended.
Tom says
OK, so I place an order for a Scarlett Johannsen clone and get an infant that I have to raise to the age of 18? And what if she hates me? What if I hate her? I’ll be almost 70 and hanging out with an annoying teenager (even a pretty one) is probably not going to be my idea of fun.
Ignoring that… do you think most people are unaware that clones are just identical twins misplaced in time?
Ryan says
@ Tom
The problem is that when there are twins you always have one that is evil. However since cloning happens later the older twin must be the good one (how could he be evil since he didn’t know he was a twin?). That makes the clone evil by default.
