Satire-challenged

Post by mnaz » July 17th, 2008, 10:50 pm

Please disregard my comments on the recent Radical Obama- Michelle Shakur New Yorker cartoon. I'm a bit overly-wrought about the state of the world and frankly it shows. I'll just concede that I don't get satire. At least for now. I used to get satire. I laughed at Saturday Night Live for a good long while. I loved Dana Carvey's Bush Sr.... "got my troops in place, ready to unleash an orrr-gee of death! Probably not ganna do it, but I could!"...

Lately I'm susceptible to the big argue. Of course it was funny, the fist bump and burning flag and the picture of Osama, and the geopoliticalglobaleconomyapocalypticplaygroundaspect.
Of course it was funny.

is this a bumbling attempt at satirical redemption, mnaz..? stop it. stop it right now and give your humor a break. it's worn out about now and no wonder... look at all you've put that humor through. amazing.

Bumbling, certainly. That's how I do things. Funny thing.

yezzz.... The funk mob used to do it better (Parliament, Funkadelic, George Clinton, Bootsy & the rest of the mob).... For example,
"Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadoloop".
That was a good one...

The only thing I got to appologize for is John McCain will be the next prsident of the united states.

I am very sorry about that.

I have a hunch...

that not even the worst, most ominous fear-pimping campaign's gonna get it this time. McCain is tired, and (for once) we know it.

Just a hunch.

Meanwhile, get used to the (note: funny) permanent assault on O.
It's already been one hell of a long season.
And he makes such a natural terrorist!!
And that's funny!!
