Somebody's gotta post here.

Here are some headlines (front page, mind you) that make me want to hurl.

'Big Debate': Which Olsen twin is tops?
Hungry kitten grips can for dear life
Top-banana monkey guards hospital


From news websites.  >:(

And Europeans just can't figure out why Americans are stupid...  :D :D :D

Comments like that are sure to make Americans wonder some thing about Europeans. 

Well, it's not making us smarter.

Nope.  And if that is all you rely on, then I you get what you deserve.  IMHO.

At some point the MSM becomes our ONLY source of information, and when they are preocupied with OJ Simpson or which Olsen twin is better... than we have an issue.

To tell you the truth the "Top-banana monkey guards hospital" looks pretty interesting, where did you find it? lol.  :D

Mary-Kate is hotter, by the way.

I was more a Jodie Sweeten fan...  :-[

Daily Show is where I turn for real news...ironically, that is about the only place you can get it these days.

Boy, I was going to post that. You beat me to it.

And if I were a US citizen every little aspect I wonder regarding europeans, it was not going to be very nice at all.

PRECISELY. And it's funny as hell to hear Bill O'Reilly talk about Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert when it is quite clear that he is dumber than both of them.

They say it appeals to stoners and drop outs.

What a fucking idiot!

Actually, if you watch Bill O'Reilly after tokin a smoke you won't stop laughing.  Just like those late great Marijuana commercials...

"Hey look at my gun, isn't it cool" *shoots self in head*

Got me on the floor everytime. 

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I can't smoke at school, but my friend and I smoked together and we would talk about the anti-marijuana campaign. Did you ever see the video that's in "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas"? When they say pot makes people rape other people?

It was hysterical.

But yes, I do know what you mean.

It's called refer madness.  A cult classic.  I suggest finding a buddy and watching after a few gravity bong hits. (Not the dense shit)  You might go to the hospital due to asphixiation from laughing too hard.

That's the one. Thank you. :)

I love ppl,,, seriously,,, when all your news station were showing wars, terror and other crap that made you dead,, you all wondered why,,, even filmed movies about that,,, like one big conspiracy by government to frighten all of you,,,

Now when you have modern Otello and few "whateva" new age nymphs on the news you still dislike it,,,

seriously what do you want as news ? Something about someone unfamiliar or something that totally unimportant? I'm sure there are plenty of shows here and there ,,,

Those are different people that want those things. Intelligent people want relevant news. Dumb people think it's wrong to cover wars.

Quiz time: Who hosted The Daily Show before Jon Stewart?

P.S. NO GOOGLING (or other search engines).

I swear I used to know this... but Stewart's been hosting for most of my life... so am I'm not responcible for knowing ;) .

I wanna say Collin Quinn, but I know that's wrong. He was the "Weekend Update" on SNL, but I can't remember the old Daily Show.

It was the smarmy looking guy that played the love interests boyfriend in Old School 3wasn't it?,,,,Greg something,,,,

Craig Kilborn.

I got a headline for you....MBA accounting really sux!  It might be more confusing to me than my chaos and complexity physics course in my undergrad.

Correct.

What show did he host before the Daily Show?

SportsCenter (I had to look it up).

Cheater!
