      So…. kind of a “B” grade funny?

        Compared to other FFs, maybe, Compared to Blazing Saddles, this is barely a speck on the wrong end of the Bell curve

I get that they’re enjoying Faculty’s latest album on vinyl, but who turns their chair away from guests like Steven Spielberg and and Rhea Perlman?

I guess I give a Bok a C+ for this one. He doesn’t portray the faculty as quite snobbish enough. The one guy with is legs crossed knee to knee is a good start, but their noses aren’t quite stuck up enough.

The concept is funny, though. W. Wilson was a scumbag. My middle school was named after him, but what do you expect from N.J.?

“How’d they find that out?”

I have it on good authority that someone slipped a printed page displaying some of the comments from Reason H&R into a campus Safe Place ?. The heading was brazenly deceitful: “What the Political Right and Corporations don’t want you to know and what Academia is coerced into hiding from you by moneyed interests.”

Subversives.

  Oooo, I should make a bunch of pamphlets along those lines. Paint all these progressive nothing to see here’s as being hidden by their political enemies and watch them eat each other.

I don’t get it.

Awful. Therefore, perfect.

Happy fucking Friday, Reasonoids.

        Ah, yes – join me in ennui!

        No thanks. I’m trying to quit.
        
        Swiss Servator 10 years ago
        
        I would too, but I just can’t muster up the energy or interest.

Nice labeling and warts. One of Chip’s best.

    Can’t you tell? The one on the left is Trans-black, the one in the middle is Trans-Asian, and the one on the right is a pack of server squirrels in a humanskin suit.

    I approve!

And it’s Bok from the top ropes! With a folding chair!

OK, I briefly puzzled over the meaning, but I think I got it – the faculty wouldn’t have told the students about Wilson’s bigotry, so how did they learn about it?

Did I get it right?
