Cigar Guy's 15 Minutes of Fame are Over 10 Minutes Early

Cigar Guy Outed

The Original Pic of Tiger with Cigar Guy

If you've been under a rock, you might not know who "Cigar Guy" is.  The internet creates personalities over the most unsuspecting oddities at times.  Take a photo and single out a guy with a weird expression and overnight he's a megastar on the internet.  The phenom come to be known as Cigar Guy is just such a happening.  What organically grew from a great photo, interestingly enough turned into a vast array of fake, doctored, photoshopped photos. What started out as probably the best photo in sports ever taken captured by The Mail on Sunday's Mark Pain, it showed Tiger Woods fluffing a chip at the Ryder Cup – his ball heading straight towards the camera lens.  Congratulations to the photographer, but what he didn't realize is that standing behind Woods was a wide-eyed spectator smoking a fat cigar and wearing a Groucho Marx moustache and ginger wig. Nicknamed 'Cigar Guy' he became an overnight internet phenomenon after the picture appeared in The Mail on Sunday and Mail Online last week.

Now begins the fame and fortune of poor Cigar Guy.  People took the image of him and photoshopped him into everything imaginable, and then some not so imaginable.  He was even made into a Simpsons character, Aqua Teen Hunger Force character and a Boris character.  He literally was photoshopped into both the first Lincoln photograph ever taken and the Martin Luther King Jr. "I have a dream" speech.  There is nowhere that Cigar Guy couldn't be seen.  Secret Service to President Bush, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and in place of Obama are all up for Cigar Guy to replace.  [ I wish he would replace them in real life, but that's a WHOLE nother blog, isn't it, am i right? ] 

However, this week, the meme phenomenon was done away with, when Cigar Guy was tracked down and interviewed.  He was outed by the very organization that originally captured him in a picture.  It was revealed his name is  Rupesh Shingadia, a 30-year-old investment analyst in the City.  He lives with his mom and dad in London.

While millions had fun with him and some even proposed marriage, once he was outed and his real story revealed, it killed the meme phenomenon of Cigar Guy.  His fame was short lived and his 15 minutes, cut short.

Well we had fun while it lasted.  And, for those not in the know of the internet and why I'm saying it was short lived, seeing as it went on for a whole week, you might not know that some meme's go on for years and grow and grow.  For those who can remember and are true computer geeks, remember that "All your base are belong to us" lasted for years, and people would prank church signs, McDonald's signs, motel signs to read "All your base are belong to us".  They then photoshopped pics to make road signs to look like that and went so far as to doctor the Budweiser girls to have their logo read "All your base are belong to us".  I grew until it just naturally died.  In fact it still goes on today to a small extent.  So a week of meme is nothing.  And, anyone that tells you that a meme doesn't go on for years, just doesn't know what they're talking about.

Oh and by the way, Rupesh Shingadia isn't a bad looking guy when he's not in fake wig, mustache and cigar hanging out his mouth.  So I guess the marriage proposals are warranted.  It's too bad Cigar Guy was killed.

The Infidelity Report: Why We aren't Paying Attention to the Patriot Act

6:00 A.M. Monday morning, a report comes across my desk of a porn star coming out saying she is the latest mistress of Tiger Woods. For those who do not know, Tiger Woods is a Black golfing professional. He is known the world over and is the richest sports figure alive today. Another report hits my desk monitoring the British tabloids, who are saying that not 7 but 10 mistresses have been linked to the Black golfing pro. The country is gripped with the scandal. To make matters worse, it is leaked that Oprah Winfrey made a confidential call to the Woods camp to offer her support and a chance to give him an opportunity to tell his side of the story on her show. This would be one of the largest television events this year if the Woods camp agreed.



Meanwhile real news was coming across my desk. It struck me as odd that the company was in the grips of media hysteria over a golfing pros personal infidelities. I mean, GOLF? No seriously, who actually watches GOLF? I don't know anyone personally that watches golf. Oh they may know Tiger Wood's name, but they don't watch, nor follow him. I pick up the phone can phone one of my cousins, one of the many that are pro football players. I ask him about Woods and golf. He affirms my suspicions. No one watches golf, none of his fellow team members, not even the management.

So I'm left with the question of how could the entire country be gripped with this story about a Black golf pro. Then it hit me.

It's a distraction.

The real news that was on my desk was still smoking from the heat of the story. It was burning a hole in the shiny wood of my desk it was so hot. But, who cares about malls being turned into prisons and break ins by the FBI into people's homes in the past 24 hours, they have to watch Oprah and the latest whore that the self-hating Tiger Woods got his dick sucked by. The white people are fawning all over this guy. This is the same person that denied they were Black. Yet, rest assured the white people are laughing their butts off over this scandal, because regardless of what he says, he is just a jigaboo in their eyes and they pray he loses all of his endorsements and gets laughed out of golf. After all, golf is for rich white men, not a jigaboo that doesn't even realise they don't want him in their clubs.

Meanwhile, I'm stuck with the real news on my desk wondering when this stupidity over this clown will subside and the media starts reporting the real material.

But, by then maybe Obama's love child will come out and we find that he's a gay transvestite illegal alien terrorist and wants to be united with daddy Obama.

If you are distracted by Tiger Woods and his whores, you deserve what you get. Don't wake up one day and your house, bank account, children's schools are all gone and you're being herded into a nazi style concentration camp. Don't demand your freedoms guaranteed by the constitution then, because it will be too late.
