Hey, Baby, Let’s Get Seismic

Posted on | April 18, 2010 | 20 Comments

Great pickup lines in Tehran:

A senior Iranian cleric has claimed that dolled-up women incite extramarital sex, causing more earthquakes in Iran, a country that straddles several fault lines, newspapers reported today.
“Many women who dress inappropriately . . . cause youths to go astray, taint their chastity and incite extramarital sex in society, which increases earthquakes,” Ayatollah Kazem Sedighi told worshippers at overnight prayers in Tehran.

I’d be the mack daddy in an Iranian singles bar: “Sweetheart, you’re looking like the epicenter of a 7.4 on the Richter scale. How about you and me go back to my place and make the earth move?”

    I guess too many Iranian women are showing their own fault lines…
