Already planning a hunger strike against the inhumane draconian right winger/neoliberal gun bans. Gun control is also one of the worst forms of torture. Without guns/weapons its like merely existing and not living.

- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

Missed it. PDQ?

I was too distracted by the Mars stupid, and the Moon stupid. Sure, we got our moon different than Mars, but uh, you know, Mars has sunrise and sunset too, almost with the exact same frequency Earth has....

There are moons with similar size ratios to ours on the dwarf planets too, big (relative to the planet) moons don't seem unusual.

Saturn's got a shit load of moons and gets sunrise more often than we do.

Also, obligatory answer:

Stellar nursery that solar winds destroyed billions of years ago put it there.
Impact collision put it there.

This is not something that you couldn't find out without a quick google search, backed up by pretty good evidence.

PDQ? What's that mean?

If you want to know where abouts it is, its just after the 2:45ish mark iirc.

Doesn't Bill O have at least one science nerd on his staff who can coach him on this shit?  I mean, the fucking camera guy or the telemprompter guy should be able to set him straight.

Not seeing the nod but this is about the funniest shit I've seen all week. Thank you.

LMNO

Not really a Discordian nod... Simply using the word "chaotic" doesn't count.

But still really damn funny.

navkat

Weren't there a bunch of bona fide Colbert nods y'all had on video somewhere? Where'd those go?

LMNO

ColbertGASM.  In the GASM subforum.

Cuddlefish

Nod or no, it's definitely funny. Never a miscommunication.
A fisher of men, or a manner of fish?

It's a rare thing when I find Colbert not funny.


Hell, I even liked him in Strangers With Candy.

varying degrees of explicit discordia -- or signal confirmation -- anybody's guess :fnord:

The collection of chaotic energy with no meaning bit? Hmmm I don't think that every time someone on TV mentions the word "chaos", it's a nod to Discordianism.

However, the bit about the Hot/Cold faucets and miscommunication ("H/C can never be trusted") obviously is a straight reference to the last part of the Schroedinger's Cat Trilogy.
