Fireworks and frankincense marked the opening of the world’s tallest building earlier this week in Dubai.

At 2.717ft., the Burj Khalifa dwarfs (or is it “midgets”?) all previously constructed monuments to man’s favorite toy, his own penis, and marks its builders as the most self-absorbed chicken chokers ever to grace Planet Earth.

Adding to the fun factor, the firm responsible for the giant wiener’s architecture and engineering is called Skidmore, Owings and Merrill.

These jokers also built Chicago’s largest baloney pony, the Sears Tower.

Why would the obscenely rich but heavily-indebted rulers of Dubai blow so much cash building a giant custard launcher in the sky?

The answer seems to be that their own tubesteaks have turned to ground beef from diddling themselves with sandy lubricant.

But nevermind that their prodigious wonderworm was built mainly by poorly-paid and desperate workers imported from India and housed in slums outside the city.

For the foreseeable future the micro-membered rulers of Dubai will be known as the most colossal overcompensators of the 21st century.
