Inspired by an interesting thread regarding an actor who refused to do love scenes with an attractive female actress. Inevitably somebody thinks its "funny" to throw in a picture of Helen Thomas. This extremely tiresome "joke" has been run into the ground.
Looking it up she was born in 1920. So every day someone feels the need to point how that a 90 year old woman isn't a babe. And we have to shout that out a dozen times a day in threads that have no relation whatsoever to the Washington Press Corps. Aren't we so clever.
It's nothing clever, it's nothing witty, it's nothing civil. It's just a low cheap shot. In theory aren't we supposed to be better then this. Can't we give it a rest, or at the very least stop with the off-topic use of the pictures.
Your tired response is more boring tban the hilarious postings of HT
“I’m now told that 70 year old Nazi Pelosi is sexy...”
One descriptive word - ‘jezebel’ - a wicked, shameless woman.
LOL!
I’ve been mining for new pics on this thread since this morning, and have been able to harvest a few Helen pics that I didn’t already have in my collection.
Kudos, and thanks again!

Thank you.
I agree.
It’s old.
It’s tired.
She’s 90.
It’s not funny any more. Not even a “that’s so not funny” kind of funny.
Knucklehead- your term. Not mine.
Actually she looks like Jimmy Carter's sister.
Actually, I’ve never posted one on FR. Actually I haven’t even posted a picture of any kind on FR ever.
Links to stories is about as far as I go, but goodness I think the Helen pictures are funny.
I do feel a tad bit sorry for those that the pictures annoy, but I get a chuckle out of them.
PS: Thanks for the one you posted. My brother is a journalist, and thinks Helen Thomas is the queen of journalism.
Most of the pics I get are sent to him. (Guess what his political affiliation is.)
That’s just GROSS!
Courtesy ping for the Helen Thomas ping list. Thanks, GQuagmire!
