To all New Yorkers...GET OUT NOW!!!

[Suthenboy]

Fuck New Yorkers. Until michael bloomberg is shitting himself while swinging from a lamp post in times square, they can suck this shit up and like it.

[Anonymous Coward]

No, evacuate whatever friends or relatives you may wish to spare, then fence the cesspool in so that none of the vermin may escape.

Let New York finally become the penal colony that it was meant to be.

[robc]

WTF, autostart? Squirrels, kill this NOW!

[Almanian...still]

Second!

[Brett L]

I came here to say this.

[PS]

I think the version they made is autostart, which is embedded directly.

I assume swithching to the YouTube version would fix this, and reduce bandwidth.

KILL WITH FIRE! WORSE THAN SODA BAN!

[Warren]

FUCK YOU ASSHATS!
KILL! KILL! KILL! KILL!
GRRRRRRRRRR!

[Fist of Etiquette]

I kind of like it.

[ClubMedSux]

If I wanted a random video to start playing when I load a site, I'd go to espn.com.

Is this a parody? I can't tell anymore.

[Muad'Dib]

Seriously, this must be hyperbole?!

[PS]

It's a parody, but like all great parodies, entirely believable.

[Suthenboy]

At first I wasnt sure either. I decided it was hyperbole.

If I discover that it isnt hyperbole and in fact there exists an actual Bureau of Food Discipline I wont be one bit surprised.

[Jim Treacher]

BFD.

[GroundTruth]

"Bureau of Food Discipline"??? Sounds like something out of Atlas Shrugged, or 1984.

[Doctor Whom]

Oldthinkers unbellyfeel Burofooddisc.

[PapayaSF]

I believe it's entirely unfair to restrict the rights of the thin in order to help the obese. Simply make it illegal to sell giant sodas to fat people. In order to create an objective way to determine obesity, every vendor will install a metal hoop on their premises. If you can't fit through the hoop, no big soda for you.

[PS]

This ought to apply to salt as well. Obviously thin people, who aren't at risk for CHD or stroke, can buy pretzels.

[fresno dan]

No, I say create an unobjective way to decide it someone is too tubby to have a ginormous soda - kinda like the old studio 54. A snobbish dweeb with two big enforcers look at you and says "thin" or "lardo"

[Suthenboy]

Ha! +1 for you Papaya.

[Romulus Augustus]

When are the non-Manhattan boroughs going to man up and toss out any councilman who supports Bloomberg's crap?

When are the non-Manhattan boroughs going to man up and toss out any councilman who supports Bloomberg's crap?

As soon as their testicles drop into their now-useless scrotum.

Which for some reason brings me to this. Enjoy the brilliance.

[fresno dan]

One good thing (and I say that ironically) is that if foot longs are reduced another 5 inches, I could say truthfully that I am hung like a New York foot long (which is now 3.25 inches) and be telling the truth

[R C Dean]

I see no reason to doubt you, fresno dong.

[NotSure]

This may be a spoof, but I have zero doubt that should such a thing be real the usual gang would be defending this using the usual "government is saving you from yourself" arguments.

[Doctor Whom]

If the usual suspects were consistent, they'd be up in arms about this. After all, restrictions on those liberties that they like have also been packaged as "for your own health."

Oh, wait. Did I actually suggest that they be consistent? I sometimes crack myself up.

[sloopyinca]

This video reminds me that living in California isn't so bad. Yeah, the people are just as nannyish in LA and the Bay Area, but at least they don't have that accent. Ahhhhhh, that fucking accent!

[Rhywun]

Well, we don't have hippies. So there.

[sloopyinca]

I'll take hippies over the hipster douchebags you're stuck with in NYC any day of the week.

[ant1sthenes]

NYC? BFD.

[Audrey the Liberal]

Mayor Bloomberg is worse then colon cancer, and that's what killed my mom.
