I couldn't find the old thread about Wisconsinites over-indulging, but I think some alcohol might have been consumed here.

How the hell does a drunk person manage to tackle a deer? Seriously. I can't imagine a sober person being able to do that! And then to be able to hold the deer down while a buddy puts a t-shirt on it! I don't even see how that is possible. But, if there was a video of it, I suppose it was possible.

Unbelievable! Anthony Wiener, twitter maven, is thinking about running for Mayor of New York City! :eek:

Why? he has $4 million in his campaign fund and if he doesn't spend it by a certain date, then he has to return it.

That is pretty expensive public psychotherapy, Mr. Bulge.

He'd indicated in the past that becoming mayor was high on his agenda. If there is a more obnoxious major pol around, I'd like to know who it is.

Now this is just bizarre....

Is this what psychologists call "projection" (though I may be wrong about the term and am describing something else instead): one person has a situation-specific bad experience and then sees that experience in all sorts of other situations that don't really fit the original situation except in a very superficial way.

there's no doubt that the female student did suffer some kind of serious trauma, and one feels bad for her. at the same time, to act out in this manner?? :confused: doesn't she realize how she is taking a serious problem and making it sound trivial? which is just the opposite of what she wants??

Why do children who get abused grow up to be abusers? The mind works in funny ways.

Satire
Click to expand...

still, it says something unsettling about today's society that the author in the link had to make it clear that he was being satirical, even though he is writing a comedy blog from the outset anyway!

Note from the author: Although this article bears an uncanny resemblance to certain recent events, it is entirely satirical in nature. The author is not aware of any plans to legislate the francization of alphabet pasta.

Good satire will always have the air of believability to it.
 
Re: What the Fark???

Either the Onion really was hacked by the Syrians (just like E Online) or this is a joke that went too far

Making a joke about ovens and Jews in Poland...probably a bad idea.

Methinks you doth protest too much. They prefaced it with "bagel baking" ovens, which is only a mild stereotype. :p

Now, if they'd just said "ovens", you'd have a better case for taking a joke too far. Even then, I've heard and shamefully laughed at far worse Holocaust jokes.
 
Re: What the Fark???

See, this seems believable.

FAIRFAX, VA—Saying that he embodies the organization’s core values and beliefs, members of the National Rifle Association elected Aurora, CO mass shooter James Holmes as their new president Monday, sources confirmed. “Mr. Holmes is not only a powerful symbol and advocate of Second Amendment rights, but he’s also a high-profile gun owner himself,” said NRA member Tyler Paulson, 46, who claimed he could think of no one better to lead the group through its current challenges than the man who shot and killed 12 people in a Colorado movie theater. “The fact is, Mr. Holmes isn’t afraid to stand up for what he believes in. We support James Holmes 100 percent and are excited to see where he decides to lead us going forward.” At press time, Holmes and NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre were spotted laughing with one another and shaking hands during Holmes’ visiting hours.

Re: What the Fark???

This board is to sophisticated to have an NBA thread, and this is a "what the fark" as well as a "too friggin' funny". Lebron James was deprived of a unanimous MVP selection because a Boston writer gave a first place vote to Carmelo Anthony, a New York Knick. Next thing you know, they'll be singing "Sweet Caroline" at Yankee Stadium. Oh, wait ..
