Evangelion Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Disclaimer: I'm just sharing things I found entertaining. This is my field of study, so I figure I'm entitled to bring it to others' attention. (Also, Cycel showed this to me. And he's too stupid to want to cause trouble.) In short... don't start forum fires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldbond Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 trivial, sophomoric, lacking of any insight or reality. yet funny on the surface if you're high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evangelion Posted June 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 How is it lacking reality? It is satire, and many of the comments are an extremist look at the Republican platform. However, if you listen to the things McCain has said, and look at previous Republican platforms, you'll note that behind the satirical, extremist exterior of each comment, there is essentially a point of the party's beliefs. Last I checked, that was pretty much the definition of satire, meaning this video is exactly what I promised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldbond Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 really the politically savvy these days understand that the left/right, Dem/Rep paradigm is entirely false. and that both parties are going to raise taxes, expand the size and scope of government in your daily and aggregate life, continue the wars, and lead this country towards "more broke." only old people and the naive actually believe there's a substantial difference between either party now, seriously man. and issues like women's rights, gays, abortion, evangelicalism and such are only used as circus sideshows to charachaturize the ®'s specifically, but really no one power truly gives a damn about any of that. as long as they expand government, mission accomplished, for both parties. but like i said the video is damned funny on the surface if you're high to see people say whacky stuff.

a-guitarist Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 ...if you're high. Yeah.... anything else you say for the next 7 hours I'm just not going to listen too. Stoner voice gets on my nerves. a-g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldbond Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 oh i havent smoked in 2 years, but still know a classic high vid when i see one. like Mr. Show with David Cross. classic YouTube-esque stuff long before youtube was even a thought. Upright Citizens Brigade on comedy central. another classic. The State on MTV if you want to go back to medieval times. all ridiculously funny high skits. SNL commercials. anytime you get "legitimate" people in a serious setting saying whacky sh#t, it's a recipe for gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imoutgoodbye Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 I have quite a few fields of study. But I never really thought that meant that it qualified for you to bring it to anyone's attention. *chuckle* Just had to put that in. http://youtube.com/watch?v=2784o1swxv4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evangelion Posted June 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 I didn't say qualified. I said entitled. Very different words. Maybe you should have been an etymologist instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rairen Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Sophmores are so... cute. Hun, don't let intellectualism go to your head. Life will be much easier for you if you realize that you are no smarter than the majoriy of people, only slightly better educated - and only then in your field of study - and that people are entitled to very few things, in general, although they do them anyway. Oh, and if you really want to cause trouble, hunt down Despy if you can and have him give you pointers on debate as a tool liberal ideology. The guy and I used to get into brawls like you wouldn't believe. *pats Bali on the head* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imoutgoodbye Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 I didn't say qualified. I said entitled. Very different words. Well, you're right, that's different. Now you're just being pushy. Dictator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
