Help Help We're Being Repressed (Again)

DHS protects America from those infamous scourges of freedom: role-playing games and the traitors who play them.*

In other tales of terrorism, Maziar Bahari reports on how Revolutionary Guards really feel about America: “He hated me and he was jealous of me at the same time because I had been to New Jersey.” While the article is entertaining enough, there are some real prizes in the comments.

The same is true of this smackdown of racist thug Woodrow Wilson; the bus riding comments alone would be worth the price of admission, if they were charging any.

Honduras gives the finger to Hugo Chavez, the OAS, and the 0bama Administration, not necessarily in that order. More commentary and links at Fausta's blog and Babalu.

ESR comments on the whole Global Warmening conspiracy hack: "For those of you who have been stigmatizing AGW skeptics as “deniers” and dismissing their charges that the whole enterprise is fraudulent? Hope you like the taste of crow, because I do believe there’s a buttload of it coming at you. Piping hot."

*EDIT It occurred to me some hours after composing this post that this is literally true of Paranoia players. It's right there in the rules.

Make me think of having to give the "Role Playing Games Do NOT Equate To Psypathology" speech every now and then when I worked the kid's psych war.

Laughing at the end of Old Yeller however, was.

Also, whenever we got a new cataloge from the video store I'd take it upon myself to note that A Boy And His Dog wasn't what it sounded like.

"...A Boy And His Dog wasn't what it sounded like."

Oh no. Not at all. *shudders*
