The story of two kids sticking their tongues to flag poles is funny enough but what really got me laughing was one of the comments posted to the story:
I’m confused. How did this happen with global warming? I mean, the flagpole shoulda oughta been under 23 feet of water by now with the ice caps […]

… if while driving to work you see a guy out on his front porch in his skivvies with a rifle shooting something out of a tree in his yard.
Glad I don’t live right on a state highway, that could have been me

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature! If you don’t get it that’s ok, nothing to see here… move along… move along…

I find it most amusing that Napali religion is so “rock solid” that they can revoke the godhood of a “living goddess” because she dared do something without asking the “subjects”… Sort of turns the whole relationship on it’s head doesn’t it? Darned those fickle feudal subjects anyway…

All you “man caused global warming” people who wonder why we laugh at your scientific evidence only have to look at who passes as “scientists” a little more closely to see why we’re not convinced. Bon voyage.

It seems the French bash the French more than the U.S. bashes the French. This shows 2 things; anything is possible and the French are still fair game. Pass the Freedom fries and the mustard please.

SWAT bursts through the door of the apartment:
Police: “POLICE! YOU’RE ALL UNDER ARREST!”
Tenent: “For what?!”
officer swings open closet door, points at a grow light
Police: “FOR THIS!”
Tenent: “tomatos?”

The evening news on WXIN Fox 59 just reported a guy robbed a bank with a Tec-9 “semi-automatic machinegun” then continued to refer to the weapon as a machinegun through the rest of the story. Oh and a guy robbed a bank.

I knew I wasn’t the only one who found such humor in Al Franken’s senate abitions and it took no time at all for other’s amusement to show including the introduction of the Anyone But Al Franken Stein stein.

As a long time fan of Despair’s Demotivators to find a set of Star Trek Inspirational Posters along the same line is pure genius.

I would love to have been a fly on the wall when this guy came home. “Honey? The potatoes and carrots are ready, where’s the duck?” And she says “we took it to the duck shelter, it was still alive!” Is there coincidental the “ring neck” duck being awefully close to “wring neck” […]

I find it amusing that we were discussing exactly this subject at a recent family gathering. Then a week later some Kentucky newspaper publishes the article Can you tell the difference between a Hillbilly and redneck?
“To the people who use these dismissive and dehumanizing terms, we hillbillies are a subset of rednecks,” she said. […]

Those who follow Gary Varvel’s blog may know he’s been in hiding working on a special feature for Christmas. Well…
it’s here! Well done especially considering it’s his first animation release.

Bored? No, I mean really bored? Check out the Amazon customer reviews for Tuscan Whole Milk, 1 Gallon, 128 fl oz. All 872 reviews….
But don’t drink any of Tuscan Whole Milk while reading the reviews unless you like it squirting out your nose.

…OK lady, you can have your deer! Just let me get my saddle…

We all know selecting presents for the holidays can be difficult. Fortunately if you’re having a hard time thinking of gift ideas you can check Dave Barry’s Holiday Gift Guide for some, er, unique ideas.

The Canuk’s caught themselves a real life Russian spy. I can only imagine the Russian got lost trying to get into America since it’s not like the Canuk governemtn hasn’t already welcomed modern socialism with open arms.
Plus, it’s not like the Canuks have anything the Russians want to know…..

The face of Washington DC after Bill Clinton left….

Hint: look at the children’s faces

I’m seriously disappointed and frankly put little stock in these results. Only 64%? Sheesh! What a crock….
***You Are 64% Cynical***
You’re a full blown cynic… and probably even skeptical of these results.
You have your optimistic moments, but most likely you keep them to yourself.

How Cynical Are You?

First they came for the cat meat eaters and I said nothing….
What next? No more frog legs?
Awe well, what’s it matter since it all tastes like chicken, anyway.

I love short clever quips.. here’s a few I’ve come across in the last few days that made me laugh….
books have knowledge, knowledge is power, power corrupts, corruption is a crime, and crime doesn’t pay..so if you keep reading, you’ll go broke
A train station is where the train stops. A bus station is where the […]

I always miss the good sales.

The New York Times can get rid of Bob Herbert now that they can get Automatic Bob Herbert.  I suspect many of the Time’s writers were replaced with such scripts years ago.

Better check the list of 59 Things Men Should Never Do Past 30.  Personally, I never found any of them problematic though largely because 1/2 the list wasn’t known at the time.  But, even today it wouldnt’ be a problem….
Except maybe for “Compare the trajectory of his life with those of the characters in Billy […]
