“Artisan” Means “Someone Who Takes Himself WAY Too Seriously”
[Timmy Brothers – Water Makers] (Viewer #1,042)
Although this is a parody, I’m not sure how good of a parody it is. I think it might be better if it were a little less plausible and had a little more exaggeration. YMMV.
The Same As a Duck
In San Francisco, some tech companies are hiring an actual witch to protect their computers from viruses.
Seems foolish. Productivity would drop to zero for months while the nerds got the Monty Python references out of their systems.
War: A Winning Attitude
Dr. Seuss on beating the Japanese:
From 1941-1943, Theodor Seuss Geisel, a.k.a. Dr. Seuss, drew over 400 political cartoons for the newspaper PM. Among them were racist[sic] portrayals of Japanese people with slant-eyes, pig-noses, and coke-bottle glasses. When readers complained about these depictions, Dr. Seuss wrote back saying, “But right now, when the Japs are planting their hatchets in our skulls, it seems like a hell of a time for us to smile and warble: ‘Brothers!’ It is a rather flabby battlecry. If we want to win, we’ve got to kill Japs… We can get palsy-walsy afterward with those that are left.”
I’d say the lesson applies equally well to Muslims.

Come With Me If You Want to Live
A computer scientist in California said that “artificial intelligence is as dangerous as nuclear weapons”.
I tend to disagree, if only because Iran isn’t desperate to get its hands on AI.
Obama Warned Us – Prison Reform
“We should not tolerate conditions in prison that have no place in any civilized country.” —President Obama
“Did you know that some prison bakeries won’t make a gay wedding cake?”
Straight Line of the Day: After Successfully Wooing Iran and Cuba, President Obama Now Plans…
Works like this: I feed you Moon Nukers a straight line, and you hit me with a punch line in the comments.
After successfully wooing Iran and Cuba, President Obama now plans…
Foolproof
Hillary Clinton said the Iran nuclear deal is “an important step that puts the lid on Iran’s nuclear program”.
Yes, because nothing’s as airtight as a lid on a sieve.
