This hologram thing has gotten out of hand. Bringing Chris Farley back to do a bit with Tina Fey is just in bad taste.
Brilliant!
*sustained applause*
Very funny... for a suspected Canadian.
Nice touch with the arm band. You know what other political leader wore an arm band?
Happy Friday!
*SLAP!*
Seriously? A pop-quiz on a Friday? Can you give us a hint?
They were not from the old world.
A hint? Really, the answer is always the same.
Then you don't really get it. The answer is never that guy.
Not directly, no.

Pretending not get the obvious answer (always the same) was my poor attempt at humor. Please forgive me.
I enjoy the "Know who else.." jokes and the many answers other than the obvious, correct one.
Do you know who else couldn't detect sarcasm?
I got this one.... Dr. Sheldon Cooper!
Mitler?
Beldar Conehead?
I got it, that's what the game is, my reply was a sarcastic attempt at further humor.
You guys may have just ruined the game forever
That game can't be ruined, it will go on forever.
You know what else went on forever?
Warty and his Timesuit?
Dammit! Correct on the first try.
*grumbles*
1066!
See I know that one.
Yeah but what the fuck does the pi on the armband stand for?
The armband is subtle.
When did Trump switch bodies with Christie?
No, he accidentally inhaled the other candidate.
That...that ...is plausible!
Artwork = A ... Nicely drawn and in color, with shading.
Content = B ... It's relevant to this weeks news. S.P. and D.T. deserve each other.
Humor = D ... Didn't even invoke a smile for me.
Overall = B- ... There were other events this week that could have made for a great Friday Funny. HRC's email server in an outhouse with a Kim Jong-un running out of the back with reams of paper or BS pulling unicorn and rainbows out of his "Marx" bag, or Cruz showing everyone his Hawaiian birth certificate (Trump saying "They appear to be easy to get").
Anyway, Happy Friday, Folks!
Cheers!
... I don't get it.

Know who else needz moar labelz?
that's right...Mitler!

No. NEEDZ MOAR GODWIN

Having Palin babbling is easy, but not all that fair. She's a reasonably effective populist public speaker. Not gonna win any awards for thinking on her feet in an interview after being relentlessly "prepped" around the clock for a couple of weeks, but pretty effective at delivering a speech to a bunch of true believers. And she does seem to have a knack for finding the populist buttons to push with her crowd.
Her speeches certainly seem more coherent than Trump's ramblings - to me at any rate. And Sanders can be like Ron Paul only with an ability to dodge the question, or just ignore it outright. He certainly has his quixotic fixations a-la Ron's Federal Reserve. Hillary and Jeb have the market cornered on boring and robotic.
So out of that crowd, she'd probably be the best public speaker. Low bar, I know, but still....
(nothing in that comment should be construed as an endorsement of anything about Palin, other than her capabilities as a speaker. )
I keep getting the vibe of smug elitism from this particular scribble. While I am more inclined towards Cruz, you can't deny the "'UGE" level of support Trump has garnered. America isn't cringing, just the cloistered enclaves.
Thirty or 40% of likely Republican primary voters is not an UUUGE class of America. It's a minority of a minority.
You gotta admit, it is uuuuge compared to what any reasonable person thought was possible.
????? and Palin used to be about even. Now, however, Palin is easily the more coherent, and not cause she's turned smarter. And Sanders isn't dodging the question and it's not his fault. He's got false consciousness, is all.
When did Trump get Tleilaxu eyes?
Uh, the recently discovered Planet IX? Duh.
I swear on my left testicle this is true.
Yesterday after a hike with the dogs I started the truck and Palin's speech was blaring on the radio. Both dogs were so terrified at the shrill sound of her voice that neither wanted to jump in. So I turned down the sound and the dogs jumped in and the little one barfed.
...the shrill sound of her voice...
That's probably the worst thing about her. I don't remember her voice being that irritating 8 years ago, and I haven't really paid much attention to her since then, but at some point she went "full shrill harpy." It's like fingernails on a chalkboard.
Hey, it's from the Dispatch! Did Citizen Nothing hook you guys up with a cartoonist that has artistic talent?
That woman is the personification of fingernails on a chalkboard.
Draw the cartoon, THEN eat the paste - not the other way around.
Thanks in advance.
