Does anyone know how to cancel a bid on E-Bay?
I put in a bid for a "Mickey Mouse Outfit," and now it
seems that I'm only six minutes away from owning
President Obama and his entire cabinet.
These slightly funny one-liners really don't bother me that much. Think of the various village idiot pot shots under Bush or cigar jokes under Clinton. If this was all RWF humor was, it would be no harm, no foul. It is the long rambling stories that are almost complete fiction that really bug me, since they sound plausible at some basic level.
TL; DR.
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody else cringe at the thought of what an adult might be doing ordering a "mickey mouse outfit" in the first place?
ReplyDeleteEspecially after that little Republican "Daddyfur" incident in PA....
Rightwing "humor" IS mickey mouse.

ReplyDeleteAgree with 2d anonymous post. Most of the one-liners are fine, even if some are lame. Both sides do that; whatever.
ReplyDeleteIt's all the rest of the crap, esp the racist, bigoted stuff, that's most annoying. Mickey mouse jokes? meh... fine.
