Talk about awkward. But I guess less awkward than having to constantly pretend not to see your sister and her husband naked and drunk in the kiddie pool with a bottle of jack.

Edit:
Yup he's there


Apparently loving the Mossad woman

Muir didn't go all in last year. He had so many potential contenders for 2013's Roosevelts, but he always backed off at the last minute. I hope we get something truly entertaining this year, like Skye's baby being black or Mallard Fillmore.

Months of tepid insults while drinking beer in the trailer is so boring.

I know this is from a while back but is Horsey literally saying "this average guy is worthless when compared to some of the 100 most influential humans who ever lived and that's awful"?


Really, it's just more of somebody from an older generation bashing a younger generation for no reason other than they're younger and are difficult to understand because they're into a lot new-fangled stuff. "Gen Y sucks and it's full of losers! Nyah!"

No you see, until this millennium, literally everyone was extremely accomplished by their 35th birthday. People born after the year 1980 have been contaminated by A Society That Encourages Laziness, and it's up to old man David Horsey to bring us to our senses.

I dunno, his series after the Marathon bombings about how Ben Franklin would say that Boston (still bleeding at the time) is a city of cowards because we allowed the police to catch a terrorist without throwing a libertarian revolution was pretty goddamn bad. I mean, you're right that it's not Roosevelts bad, but it's in the ballpark.

Yea this kind of cartooning for activism is way worse than that kind of cartooning for activism.

I actually see a lot of McMillan poo poo in eco-fringe groups so if the pure metric is 'the choir they preach to prints their poo poo out' they're at least peers.

One set of cartoons has scenes of brutal oppression, visual takedowns involving imperial or fascist iconography, women weeping in the street holding the bodies of the dead and dying, and valiant actions of resistance(also DBZ characters).

The other set of cartoons has poorly sketched and completely static giant headed people delivering excerpts of essays and now apparently rabbits dragging around heavy rocks under excerpts taken from a personal affirmation calendar.

You can argue about whether any artist can truly contribute to social or political causes, but in terms of how these two approach their craft there's no question of which one is superior.

Not sure that's really a 'kids these days' cartoon as much as it's a 'all Americans these days' cartoon.

Horsey's also falling for the same fallacy many others do when they say music/film/whatever was better back then: when they only remember the classics it's easy to think there were only the classics. When all you remember is famous people you might make the mistake of thinking there were only famous people.

The pregnant one is her sister. The other one is her friend. You probably never noticed that they were always two different characters because Day By Day is bad.

Edit: Oh nevermind, you thought they were referencing a second sister in the dialogue. Sorry. Day By Day is still bad.

The only sister I know is Skye, but you'd think it really weird because Waifu spends like 95% of her time with Skye just insulting her politics and laying wicked burns on Obama. It's really no surprise she went to live with her mom, even though I'm sure that's not the reason Muir had in mind.

Parodies and references to that song were big in late night shows and the like for maybe a month or two (Simon presciently said "I don't think we've seen the last of you"), and then the rest of the world forgot about it. However, that lovable donkey became a star here, and within this thread it has far outlived the source.

There was a Canadian sent to the Space Station, but it's been drowned out by Rob Ford and the other scandals.

This is from 4 pages back but I feel obligated to point out that Canadians have been part of the ISS program since its inception and Canadian astronauts frequently travel there; Hadfields claim to fame is he was the first Canadian Commander of the ISS.

I wouldn't count on Ford being the thing people remember about Canada from last year. Chris Hadfield is amazing.
