Zaphod for President

I have been studying YouTube with great interest this past year. It seems to be a great way to access the 90% of semi-literate Americans who are afraid of big words. After playing around with their API for awhile, it appears to me as though most searches are based on either a specific celebrity, or […]

This month, the bills have presented a depressing mess. All of our various insurance policies came due, forcing me to imagine an endless series of potential tragedies waiting to befall me and my beloved soon-to-be-wife.
For example, soon Florida will be in the prime Hurricane season, so I had best renew the home-owners insurance (scam!) […]

Yesterday I explained how the New Zealand Parliament was offended by works of satire. Today, I found this story on digg, showing the following billboard by Hell Pizza:

Now, before you even start with me- I am no fan of George W. Bush. But that’s not my point. This is a blatant double standard: New Zealand’s […]

I recently found this article from slashdot. To summarize:
New Zealand’s Parliament has voted itself far-reaching powers to control satire and ridicule of MPs in Parliament, attracting a storm of media and academic criticism.
The new standing orders, voted in last month, concern the use of images of Parliamentary debates, and make it a contempt of Parliament […]

“We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth.”
John F. KennedyOctober 26, 1963

Have you seen this yet?

I for one was very impressed by this presentation. So impressed, in fact, that I decided to track down the elusive Tin Foil Hat Lady, a.k.a. Mrs. Hilarioous Schnorklefarken, a.k.a […]

“That’s not fair.”
“Life’s not fair.”
“No, seriously, you can’t just decide to go around sterilizing people you view to be disadvantaged.”
“It’s the most humane thing we could possibly do.”
“How do you figure?”
“Well, consider for example midgets. Or is it dwarfs? Shit, I forget, what is the proper term for a midget?”
“Little people.”
“Little people?”
“Yes, little people.”
“Are you […]

Here are some more promos for my failed “mindshare.tv” project.
I would very much appreciate any honest feedback on these.
Please note: “you are crazy, and need medication” is perfectly valid feedback, but a tad redundant at this point. Please be more creative with your insults.
It’s all your fault…

Be a […]

A few months ago, I was fleshing out the idea of a web-based television network, dedicated to spreading conspiracy theories and general anti-NWO propaganda. Sadly, one of the would-be backers decided to abandon the project without warning, and the idea died with a quiet death.
This morning I came across one of the sample “promo […]

From the U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 10:
No state shall enter into any treaty, alliance, or confederation; grant letters of marque and reprisal; coin money; emit bills of credit; make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts; pass any bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law impairing the […]

The other day, I made a mistake. I began talking about the Federal Reserve, and in doing so, went off on a tangent about a mysterious conspiracy, mish-mashed with faulty information. I got lazy, and allowed my skepticism to wane.
I would like to correct this error.
Hear me out: I know this stuff is […]
