Aaron: "Are you Google Image searching baby hedgehogs? How far down your to-do list ARE you?"
Area Man
I woke up thinking about this. It took me a while to find it. Now it’s safe and sound forever on my hard drive. It’s my very favorite Onion story ever, from way back in August of 1999:
Dancers
Al told me about this dancer, and then I saw this one on Boing Boing. Hilarious!
Awfully Clever
It seems some pranksters in Germany have been putting little Bush flags in piles of dog poo. Hilarious! Click here for more lovely photos and here for an article.
4 More Years of Shit
…the police say they are completely baffled as to who is to blame… “We have sent out extra patrols to try to catch whoever is doing this in the act,” said police spokesman Reiner Kuechler, “but frankly, we don’t know what we would do if we caught them red handed.” Legal experts say there is no law against using faeces [sic] as a flag stand and the federal constitution is vague on the issue.
Bwahahaha!!
Colbert on Why Bush Won
Steven Colbert did this hilarious analysis of why Bush won on Wednesday’s Daily Show. I looked all over the Internet for a transcript and couldn’t find one, so I watched this clip and transcribed the part at the end that I think is so very funny. Here’s what I think was the best part:
Stewart: What do you think won this thing for Bush? What did it for him?
Colbert: Two issues, Jon. Exit polls of Bush voters said that the issues most important to them were terrorism and Cultural Values, both of which fall under the umbrella of fear.
Stewart: So, how are both of those issues fear?
Colbert: [Lots of silliness you can watch on the video]
Stewart: If those are the two major issues concerning voters, and again, why would NYC, which really has the most significant gay population in the country and has already has had the most significant terror attack in the country vote overwhelmingly for Kerry?
Colbert: Well, here’s the thing, Jon. We in New York are too close to the terrorism and the gay people. Only the red states, with the advantage of a safe distance, can take in the whole picture and clearly see what we should do about those issues. And so, on behalf of everyone living in the blue states, I’d like to thank the red states for saving us from ourselves.
