Post Some Political Satire

Pages

It's just like it says on the tin: satire, P&C-style.

I'm an Anti-Braker, a response to anti-vaxxers.

God: ‘F*ck Russell Wilson’

THE HEAVENS—Following the game-ending interception against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLIX, God Almighty, Creator and Supreme Ruler of the Universe, confirmed Monday that He “can’t f*cking stand Russell Wilson” and that the Seattle Seahawks star quarterback “can go f*ck himself.” “I hate Russell Wilson, so f*ck him, and f*ck the Seahawks,” said the Heavenly Father, adding that Jermaine Kearse’s incredible catch on Seattle’s final drive was indeed a case of divine intervention, but only so Wilson could then throw an interception that cost his team the Super Bowl. “I mean, the look on his face right after I made him throw that pick on the goal line was just priceless. He’s so f*cking annoying, so I wanted to get his hopes up and then crush him in front of the whole world. Self-righteous little prick.” Despite subsequently allowing the Patriots to win their fourth Super Bowl title, God also clarified that Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and Robert Kraft are all “dirty f*cking cheats” who will spend an eternity in Hell after they die.

The Betty Bowers expose on the Homosexual Agenda was some of the finest satire I have ever seen.

The older www.satirewire.com articles before the reconstitution were fantastic as well. In particular these gems.

Well written, but headline makes for biggest howl.

Now, I think Al Jazeera America is the best addition to my cable package ever, but still I think of this:

Honestly, if you watched 10 seconds from the :53 mark, you'll get the enriched nugget of the joke.

I'm torn about that, Dee. I mean, I'm part AmerInd, but some of my ancestors were illegals too. And yet I'm a productive member of society and have financially supported Indian causes. I think they should allow the descendants of illegals to be vested into citizenship, as long as they have been productive members of society and haven't put natives into prison camps or thrown them out of the country or that sort of thing.

(Oh, wait wait wait...)

Or purposely killed some of them with their diseases?

F that! Get off my land, one drop rule represent!

Confused Shiite Militants Take Aim at SUNY School System

(Note: SUNY is the State University of New York, and is indeed pronounced like Sunni, or "Soo-nee")

God accidentally shoots himself while cleaning His 9MM Beretta.

Our Heavenly Father,

Please accept this humble prayer from the Book of Armaments.

PLACE THE WEAPON ON SAFE.
DROP THE MAGAZINE.
LOCK THE SLIDE TO THE REAR.
VISUALLY INSPECT THE CHAMBER AND MAGAZINE TO ENSURE THE WEAPON IS CLEAR.
ORIENT THE WEAPON IN A SAFE DIRECTION.
ALLOW THE SLIDE TO GO FORWARD.
PLACE THE WEAPON ON FIRE.
SQUEEZE THE TRIGGER.

The Weapon is now Clear!

Amen.

I think your version of "Going Clear" would be a lot more fun than that other book...

Heineken Sales Down As Dickheads Migrate To Craft Beers

Donnacha went on to explain that many former Heineken drinkers have made the move to craft beers in an effort to feel part of the condescending elitism no longer afforded to them by drinking Heineken.

“You wouldn’t be caught within a minge hair’s breath of that old sh*te anymore. I’m talk of the town with the lads now because I’ve discovered the key to this craft beer lark,” offered reformed ex-Heineken drinker Jack Dooley-Forde-O’Loughlin-Ahern, “you just find the most German sounding f*cking yoke on the shelf or behind the bar and the lads think you’re like, up to speed on all things beer”.

That cup better be full of cookies!

Paging Dr. LarryC...

National Security of Anesthesiologists (NSA) Releases New Cell Phone Disabling Device

(based on a true story)

EDIT: I only mention Larry because he's an anesthesiologist, not because I think he mocks patients while they're under. (sarcasm)I know Larry has the intestinal fortitude to insult them to their faces while they're awake.(/sarcasm)

Yep! I won't say anything when you're asleep that I won't say to your face. That's an ironclad guarantee!

Frankly, you can't really be 100% certain of hearing loss and lack of recall even when the patient is completely under - the anesthesiologist in that piece didn't know her science! That's why I actually bother to tell patients about painful needlepricks even when they're completely under! It's kind of a joke, but it's also kind of serious.

At the same time... eh. I dunno. Defamation? Because your doctor secretly trash talked you to other doctors behind your back? That feels a little weird. We laugh at patients all the damn time. You'd be a humorless lump of rock not to.

Darn, from the article of the true story it seems like the doctor wasn't nailed, only the anesthesiologist.

Not just defamation, but false diagnoses, and gaslighting by lying about the doctor seeing the patient. I think if it weren't for those parts, the defamation suit would not have bee successful.

Still feels off. Falsifying legal documents is its own thing. We're not talking cancer here. Any idiot will clearly see he doesn't have hemorrhoids. Gaslighting? Socially reprehensible, but actually not included as standard of care. Not really a reputation breaker, either. The whole thing feels like it's missing a cog or a step.

Probably. Due to HIPAA, we're not getting the full story. Also, it's a civil suit, not a criminal one. The standards are a bit more lax. But that's a discussion for the Post a News Story P&C thread.

That's satire right?

Right?
