Big Grunty Secret posted:Last French Fry Told To 'Get Your rear end Over Here' This is probably my favorite in a while. The set up is so banal and then it suddenly gets dark as hell. It makes the whole thing hit that much harder.

Orange_Lazarus posted:Man this one brought me to tears: Every time I read this I think about the time my dad thought it would be a cool ideas to work with 11 year old me in my attempt to build a crossbow. We drafted plans and went to the hardware store and spent weeks building the drat thing. I had it for all of 5 minutes before I punched a quarter inch hole in the garage door with a plastic GI Joe missile from 5 feet away. Only then did it dawn on him that 'holy poo poo this might not have been a good idea' RIP crossbow

UnfurledSails posted:I don't get what this is satirizing. People with comm degrees? Are they generally considered to be entitled assholes or what? Comm is generally considered to be for people who couldn't hack it in one of the more discipline focused business degrees.

Saint Sputnik posted:You guys read any other satire news? I can't really stand the Daily Currant or Borrowitz Report for reasons that are difficult to articulate. Maybe a side by side comparison of similar articles will help: The currant is good because it's just obscure enough and plays it straight enough that every once in a while a (relatively) smart person will fall for it and flip the gently caress out. Otherwise I don't think it's all that great.
