Quick! I Need a Political Metaphor for This!

Frank said he’ll start taking his medications and make the voice in his head that is me disappear if I ever post a video that’s just FUN without twisting it into a political metaphor.

This video is just fun and full of SCIENCE!, so I feel compelled to post it, but I’m drawing a blank on the political metaphor. So if you give me a little help in the comments, I’d be temporarily grateful.

You know… until Frank’s meds kick in…

  1. That’s today’s invention exchange…what do you think sirs? Well Joel we think eighty gazillion dollars to send you in to space to wring out cloths is eighty gazillion too many. Your movie for today is a little tidbit directed by Burt I Gordon…

  2. A political metaphor for this?

    In space, no one can hear you clean… out the Democrat cooties.

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh……..

    It’s not working, Harvey.

    I’m flushing it.

    Wait!

    Something… something… astronaut Nancy Peelousy’s urinal accident consumed all of the wash cloths on the International Space Station!!!

  3. OK, political metaphor?

    Something that seems routine to us. . .

    and utterly meaningless . . .

    the government can spend millions, if not billions, on . .

    (For Muslim outreach, mind you . . .)

    A result that is totally useless and utterly meaningless . . .

    Involving some ambiguous and frankly creepy guy . . .

    Doing something ambiguous and slightly creepy . . .

    For absolutely no practical benefit . . .

    Which, like Green energy, can be written off. . .

    (In this case,) as Muslim outreach . . .

    While garnering applause from brainwashed Obamobots in a public school.

    Close enough?

    Oh, by the way, the White House was closed for tours to eighth graders, for the cost of that demonstration.

    And Joe Biden suggested opening the airlock to wring out the towel.

    don

  4. Dude, seriously. F the metaphors. HOW FREAKIN’ COOL IS IT TO WATCH A GUY LET GO OF A MICROPHONE, TURN AROUND, AND THEN TURN BACK AND TALK INTO THE MICROPHONE BECAUSE THE ZERO G KEEPS IT IN PLACE.

    Seriously, I totally forgot all about hockey pucks and washcloths and whatever. I was like, “Dude. Why did I not become an astronaut.”

    And then I remembered what Obama did to NASA.

    And I’m filled with inconsolable rage.

  5. I wan t to hear how much of my tax money subsidized the research, design and building of the machine that makes the washcloth into a hockey puck. We already have hockey puck making machines. I don’t need one that turns other things into hockey pucks. Unless those things are smelly hippies that that got face punched and they “accidentally” fall into it. Then I may be willing to subsidize it; but only in exchange for a quality cappuccino.
