9. That the so called "liberal media" |
|
is not liberal
and while it is an assortment of media, it doesn't report news so much anymore as a whole.
There are good pockets of the media, and some liberal forums within the mass media
compared to European media--- we look like we have mostly John Birch style media here (by contrast, not necessarily content)
:shrug:

17. I think that one belongs in the "Proof that GOD doesn't exist" thread. |
|
Or perhaps we need a: "GOD might/might not exist, but here's PROOF that he doesn't give a shit about us" thread?

34. And a WEST virgin, whatever the hell that is! |
|
One of my favorite images from "Futurama" was from the "Bendin' in the Wind" episode that showed a map of the USA in the year 3000...
A certain pair of States (which shall remain nameless) were labeled "West Virginia" and "EAST West Virginia".
Truth in jest...is just the best! :rofl:
