Kim Jong-il, North Korea leader and despotic rocker of BluBlockers, died of a heart attack this past Saturday, leaving a capacious gap in source material for many comedians. Kim’s 29-year-old son and Little Debbie connoisseur, Kim Jong-un, will succede his father and take over leadership of North Korea. Those will likely be some big jumpsuits to fill.
After years of trying to convince the rest of his world that the people of North Korea could merely sate their hunger pangs with the savory pride of a fledgling nuclear weapons program, “Dear Leader” was remembered today on Twitter and was actually still a trending topic as of this morning. Before getting to the Twitter reactions, though, I’d like all readers to prime themselves with the following video that depicts North Koreans literally crazed with sorrow at the news of Kim’s death:

Kim Jong il is dead but the citizens of North Korea have been told he’s entered a sleeping competition.
Per his instructions, Kim Jong-Il will be strapped to a nuclear missile and buried in South Korea.

Someone has pointed out that Gaddafi, Bin Laden and Kim Jong Il have all died this year. Maybe Team America does exist…

We did it Twitter. We made every Kim Jong-Il joke there was to make. I’m sure North Korea will appreciate it once they get the Internet.
