  1. Where’s Cortez Cortez?

    1. ZARDOZ

      ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN INQUIRING ONE. I WOULD RECOMMEND CHECKING THE NEWSISH STUDIOS…?

    2. The Elite Elite

      I know. I want to hear all about Secret Nazi President’s Secret Nazi Health Plan!

      1. Are sure you can handle that level of Secret Naziness?!

    3. straffinrun

      I know. Breaking routine with this group can cause some head banging.

      1. Juvenile Bluster

        You’re culturally appropriating the forum autists, you know.

        1. straffinrun

          I self identify as a cultural appropriator.

          1. westernsloper

            I self identify as autistic as well as tourettes so I can bang my head on the wall and yell, “FUCKSHITCUNTWHORE”.

    4. BakedPenguin

      I’m surprised you noticed Ted, since you haven’t seemed very impressed.

      The comic is (obviously) late. (To mods: I’ll try to get it done in a couple hours.)

      1. Ken Shultz

        Did you guys hear about Macron’s wife?

        I’d heard she was 25 years old then him. Turns out she was his teacher when he was 15 years old. I hear tell she had three kids when they met–and he went bananas for her. At some point, Macron’s dad put a stop to it and pulled him out of the school, but Macron pledged his eternal love anyway and promised to marry her.

        She got divorced ten years ago. I think Macron has stepchildren that are older than him.

        There’s no confirmation that they were bangin’ when he was 15. There’s no confirmation they weren’t either.

        I’m not saying she should go to jail for something that happened all that time ago, either.

        I’m just sayin’ that’s wigged out, man!

        If he was 15, and she’s 25 years older than him, that would make her . . .

        That’s wig, right?

        Amirite?

        When a 15 year old girl goes after a 40 year old guy, they’re called “jailbait”.

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcRtezB51Ok

        I was just thinking how weird it is that AC/DC never wrote a song about jail bait, but then I don’t think Bon Scott differentiated between . . . so why would it come up?

        Anyway, the new president of France was . . . male jailbait.

        1. CZmacure

          male jailbait

          malebait

      2. Ken Shultz

        that comment wasn’t supposed to be a reply to Baked Penguin. It was supposed to be a stand alone comment.

        Oh well, while I’m here, if I could throw something in the suggestion box, I think Cortez Cortez should shit his pants.

        Especially if the healthcare bill clears the Senate. I mean, why wouldn’t Cortez Cortez shit his pants?

        He’s a pants-shitter, and that’s what pants-shitters do. Birds fly and sing. Fish swim. Pants-shitters shit their pants.

        That’s my two cents, anyway.

  2. Could you imagine if anybody made an incest joke about Barack and either Sascha or Malia?

    1. The Elite Elite

      Wherever that person worked would immediately fire him.

    2. John Titor

      Devil’s advocate here, at least Ivanka’s of age. But I’d be terminating Maher for general incompetence anyway.

  3. Heck, where are all the other commenters?

    1. Juvenile Bluster

      Dead due to pre-existing conditions that are no longer covered thanks to Trumpcare.

      1. The Elite Elite
        1. The Elite Elite

          Damnit. Die quickly!

          1. Grumbletarian

            Alan Grayson is one of the most infuriatingly condescending fuckwits to ever hold political office. No mean feat!

          2. You’re not represented by Senator Moobs, are you?

    2. *raises hand slowly*

    3. Timeloose

      Lots of people were in the old post talking about their dinner. I didn’t notice the new post until just now.

    4. Rhywun

      Enjoying watching Team Disney circle the drain.

      1. Floridaman

        What did they do now?

        1. Rhywun

          Lose by six goals

          1. Floridaman

            Oh, I thought you meant the company did some more stupid virtue signaling.

      2. Chipping Pioneer

        I haven’t seen a beating like that since Rodney King!

      3. one true athena

        Disney hasn’t owned them since the name change, tho, so if that’s why you hate em you’re like ten years too late.

  4. John Titor

    See, here I thought that Colbert was winning in the lazy-and-stupid jokes department with the classic “DUR HUR TRUMP SUCKS RUSSIAN COCK”, but I forgot that Maher always led the race to the bottom.

    1. The Elite Elite

      But they’re funny and edgy and brave. They speak truth to power!

      1. JaimeRoberto

        Maybe they can get that Profiles in Courage Award next year if they keep it up.

    2. straffinrun

      What other direction can they go?

      1. Um…sideways?

    3. Chafed

      Maher definitely started down the low road about the time he publicly started calling himself a liberal. He went from arrogant to self-righteous. With that he appeared to feel free to say anything about anybody because, of course, he was correct.

    4. SIV

      Maher can be (and is) actually funny. I hold opposite opinions from him on guns, animal rights, religion, partisan politics and several other things but he is not afraid to tell a joke that skewers progs (scripted and especially ad-libbed) and he’s very anti-PC. He seems to be actually “friends” with his long-time conservative guests.

  5. straffinrun

    Only buses and bikes are allowed to travel southbound, while drivers who live on the right side or use a sixth form car park must register their number plates for access northbound.

    English MFer, do you speak it?

  6. quincy

    Poppy has never been seen eating Pizza.

    1. Has she been seen eating deep-dish?

      1. Yusef drives a Kia

        in Russia Deep Dish eats Poppy!

    2. Brochettaward

      I don’t want to ruin the ending of this one for anyone, but it’s aliens. Or diabetes. One of those two.

      1. Brochettaward

        And death to the flat crusters.

  7. Gilmore

    ….a few Twitter users had tsk-tsked, as did a few news websites.

    “Ivanka Trump is a problematic, puzzling figure,” Marlow Stern wrote Saturday in thedailybeast.com.
    “But if liberals are going to castigate Donald Trump for his boorish, sexist behavior, they shouldn’t behave in a similar fashion.”

    I think Marlow Stern makes a good point here, especially for someone who has suffered from syphilis for so long.

  8. Good news, ladies: You can be a feminist and still hate other women

    “You know where women were all really unfailingly kind and polite to each other? Stepford. That is not generally regarded as a place in fiction where women’s rights have triumphed.

    “The declaration that any time a woman dislikes another woman she’s no longer a feminist is a logic that implies women somehow have to be held to a different emotional standard than men. Because men seem plenty able to dislike other individual men and still remain in positions of power and respect. Donald Trump hates a whole bunch of men and that does not seem like a big conflict to his “men’s rights” supporters. Being held to the same standards and accorded the same emotional privileges as men is kind of what we’re going for here, with the whole feminism thing.”

    1. one true athena

      Amazing how that comes out after every woman who hated Hillary got labeled a misogynist. Buy hey, open season on Ivanka and Kellyanne!

      1. Chafed

        That woman is great. My new hero.

      2. wdalasio

        She can hold a conversation, tell jokes and quote Shakespeare. She’ll remember your birthday… what you like to eat, and the names of your brothers and sisters. She can hold a conversation about music, movies and books.

        This can’t be true. The feminists have been assuring me for years that men’s only interest in women is as sexual objects. Surely, they wouldn’t be interested in a sexual object with intelligence, which feminists have assured me men only find threatening in women.

    2. straffinrun

      They’re going to stop using the term “Uncle Tom”, right?

    3. Rhywun

      Needs more “knuckle-draggers” and “yokels”.

    ZARDOZ HAS TO GO FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIT INTO THE GIG ECONOMY.

    Do you know who else tried to fit into the gig economy?

    1. Numerous rock groups?

      1. quincy

        Don’t forget Igneous Rock groups.

    2. Mike Schmidt

      No, who?

      1. westernsloper

        Dirk Diggler

        Not that I am suggesting Zardoz should resign himself to back ally hooking to pay the bills.

        1. Mike Schmidt

          Hey, it’s good work if you can get it.

        2. CZmacure

          He’s got the skills for it…

          … I hear he gives really good head.

    3. juris imprudent

      Kermit?

    4. Agent Cooper

      Katherine Hepburn?

      (C’mon people, don’t let me down with your obtuse pop culture knowledge)

      1. egould310

        I’d like to come up with a witty retort, but I feel like I should defer to Ted S.

        Classic films is really his specialty.

        1. I’d guess he’s referring to Desk Set, since that has Gig Young in the cast. But her “pro athlete” character in Pat and Mike was technically working in the gig economy, not that they called it that back then.

          That’s the best I can do for you at 5AM.

    1. [Budweiser joke deleted]

    2. quincy

      Don’t mock, this is how beer will be brewed on Mars.

      1. Floridaman

        Rocket blows up.

        Well it’s still the worst beer on earth.

    3. westernsloper

      I stopped watching as soon as I noticed the dude with the skinny cow pants and the man bag.

    4. straffinrun

      I bet they weren’t hungry an hour after eating this Chinese food.

    5. SimonD

      well of course it’s called PIS-ner. Because what else would they call it.

    6. Brochettaward

      Honestly, it’d probably be an improvement on the taste for most American beers to just use piss. Unfiltered.

  10. Chafed

    Holy crap the Chicago Tribune writer couldn’t say the the gang members used a semi auto rifle often enough. Was there an office pool for how many times that was referenced in one article? Because the obvious problem isn’t gang members intentionally firing into a car; it’s that they used a semi automatic rifle.

    1. Brochettaward

      Odds that the writer has any clue what a semi automatic weapon is?

      1. The Elite Elite

        That’s the one the shoots out 100 bullets a second from the clip magazine with one trigger pull, right?

        1. __Warren__

          That’s a revolverator!

      2. Pat

        Semi automatic in media English = full auto with aimbot, incendiary rounds and unlimited ammo capacity.

        1. But Enough About Me

          You forgot “nuclear capability.”

          1. Gustave Lytton

            Only what you see here, pal!

          2. Akira

            And YOU forgot “heat seeking bullets”

            https://youtu.be/BRQqieimwLQ?t=22

      3. Chafed

        None. And the comments above are spot on. You know the writer thinks this is a military weapon that’s been unleashed in Chicago. If only we the unwashed would bow to superior knowledge then these shootings would immediately stop.

        1. OneOut

          and the financial supply/availability can probably be traced to those who wish this latest escalation of weaponry upgrade

  11. Juvenile Bluster

    Time for the NCAA Lacrosse Selection Show!

    We’re doing a bracket challenge, right?

    1. SimonD

      Lacrosse actually looked like it could be fun when I watched my uncle play in school. I had no idea what the rules were though (I still don’t).

      However, I did like the idea of whacking my opponent with a stick.

      1. Gilmore

        Yes, that can be an amusing aspect of the game.

        There is one small detail tho. People hit back.

        1. C. Anacreon

          My son’s high school lacrosse team’s season just ended Friday night, finally. Still have the season-ending banquet to get through, though.

        2. Trials and Trippelations

          Heh I played lacrosse for my high school’s inaugural season (I was a senior). The only knocked off my feet hit similar to those that I remember was from one of my teammates during practice. Fun times

    2. Gilmore

      Time for the NCAA Lacrosse Selection Show!

      I think North Carolina or SU

      I went to a bunch of ACC games this year, watched a bunch on TV/Streamed at the end of the season. NC looked devastating in their last few games.

    1. __Warren__

      #7 will amaze you!

      1. quincy

        It’s Utah, isn’t it?

        1. __Warren__

          And soon, Germany!

      2. Rhywun

        Not really.

        1. straffinrun

          Lol. Thank you. *Monday morning made a little brighter*

          1. juris imprudent

            Damn you and your international date line!

    2. Mike Schmidt

      I’m sure this has no relation to straffinrun’s link above, but I just wanted to say that my guess is that there are 13 Muslim majority countries in the world.

    3. Pat

      Any overlap with the Trumputin travel ban countries?

    4. Chafed

      The Maldives surprised me. I don’t know shit about it other than SI shot a swimsuit issue there ages ago. I just sort of figured if bikini clad foreigners could frolic on their beaches they weren’t super uptight about religion.

        1. Gustave Lytton

          Wow. Too bad.

          A relatively relaxed version of the religion was practised under Gayoom until 2004, when an influx of preachers, funded mainly by Saudi Arabia, arrived after the tsunami.

          Huh. How long before we can put Saudi Arabia on the list of state sponsors of terrorism?

          1. Chafed

            Thanks HM. Didn’t know that. SI must have been there before the influx. GL it can’t happen soon enough.

  12. westernsloper

    Howie Carr is great:

    As always, a crowded field of extinguished, I mean distinguished Democrat statesmen were vying for this year’s prestigious honor. Just this week, ex-U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown took the witness stand in Jacksonville in her own defense at her corruption trial. A federal prosecutor asked the solon Friday how she spent the $141,000 in cash that had been funneled from her “charity” for poor children to her personal bank accounts.
    “I had birthdays,” she said under oath. “I had Christmas. Sometimes I had boyfriends.”
    Will Corrine be there this evening in Dorchester to celebrate her favorite president? Probably not. The closing arguments in her tax fraud trial begin tomorrow morning.

    Interesting that this is the first I have heard of this crooked politician. She obviously did not structure her charity properly.

    1. quincy

      Handmaid’s Tale! Handmaid’s Tale!

      1. Pat

        How long do you reckon until the porn parody Handmaid’s Tail gets made?

        1. __Warren__

          There’s also a Handjob’s Tale.

        2. quincy

          I thought the Handmaid’s Tale was a porn parody, just not a very good one.

    2. Agent Cooper

      The Handmade’s Tail is available on Etsy.

  13. Playa Manhattan

    We had thunderstorms. It rained while it was sunny. I saw rainbows.
    Does that make me gay?

    1. Mike Schmidt

      Need more info. How many rainbows did you see?

    2. straffinrun

      Depends. Was that a euphemism?

    3. egould310

      Did you put your penis in a man’s butt? If so, you are gay.

      Did a man putt his penis in your butt? If so, you are gay.

      You saw a rainbow? Not gay. Only penis in butt is gay. Or mouth. And some hand stuff. If you’re both dudes. But if one guy is dressed up like a pretty lady, then it’s not gay. If both guys are dressed like pretty ladies, then it goes back to being gay.

      I’ve got a chart with most of these scenarios and the decision of whether it’s gay. Just ask me. I’ll get you the correct answer.

      1. Mike Schmidt

        *furiously scribbles notes. Raises hand…

        But how about this? Where is this on the chart?

        1. egould310

          Hand stuff. Two dudes. Gay.

      2. Playa Manhattan

        What if it’s like a really pretty dude?

        1. Chafed

          Man pretty or lady pretty?

          1. __Warren__

            Tom Petty?

          2. Chafed

            LOL. Reminds of the line from Hair (I think), “I’m not gay but I would suck Mick Jaggers’ cock.

      3. Heroic Mulatto

        You saw a rainbow? Not gay. Only penis in butt is gay. Or mouth. And some hand stuff. If you’re both dudes. But if one guy is dressed up like a pretty lady, then it’s not gay. If both guys are dressed like pretty ladies, then it goes back to being gay.

        This was only slightly less confusing and self-contradictory than explanations for when statistics should be called ‘data science’.

    4. OneOut

      it doesn”t matter how many dicks you suck Playa.

      What matters is how many of them did you enjoy ?

  14. From People Magazine:

    “Fashion influencers showed their (stylish) support for Hillary Clinton on Tuesday evening, when the former Democratic presidential nominee was honored in New York City with a “Champion of the Century Award” by Planned Parenthood as it celebrated 100 years of operation….

    ““This Gala is a powerful reminder that Planned Parenthood has been around for 100 years and will continue to be here for the people who rely on us, no matter what,” Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards said on the nonprofit organization’s website earlier this month. “One hundred years of care, education, and activism have changed everything, and we will not rest until access to health care and rights is a reality for all people.””

    1. Rhywun

      influencers

      Urge to kill… rising….

    2. quincy

      GAAH! HRC in khakis! For a second, I thought she was going bottomless.

    3. Floridaman

      If Planned Parenthood was able to get that many wealthy people to show up tovirtue signal on their behalf, then I don’t think they need taxpayer funding.

      1. Floridaman

        To virtue signal

        1. CZmacure

          > to virtue signal
          > to virtue influence

      2. Pat

        I was just talking about that the other day with someone. I haven’t seen their books, but I suggested that maybe if Planned Parenthood spent more time doing private fundraising rather than being dependent on government grants and Medicaid, and if they spent more of their dearly-won funding on actual medical services instead of partisan political activism, they could probably put together an endowment large enough to provide an abortion to every woman in America (including travel expenses for women still living in the hinterlands).

        1. Gustave Lytton

          Some women may need more than one.

          *goes back to sucking on government teat*

    4. Gustave Lytton

      Did they have a miniature display in the lobby of the all the dead bodies from their 100 years of abortions?

      1. egould310

        Not really in the lobby. You had to go through the kitchen and look in the dumpster behind the convention center.

        1. Gustave Lytton

          Oh, next to the pile of rusty coat hangers?

  15. __Warren__

    So ZARDOZ needs a clean slate?

    1. He just wants to get a head in life.

      1. Mike Schmidt

        Hey, we all just want to get head.

        1. ZARDOZ NEEDS TO KEEP CHIN UP.

          1. quincy

            AND A STIFF UPPER LIP (A LOWER ONE AS WELL).

          2. quincy

            Good on you, keeping Australian music prominent in the ears of the Web surfing masses.

  16. VIDEO: Will Al Franken run for President in 2020?

    There’s three basic questions for him to consider…

    1. Pat

      Gore’s people should let him know that it’s tougher to successfully play the quadruple-recount game at the national level.

    2. Floridaman

      Number one how badly do I want the Democrats to lose in 2020?
      Number two how much do you think I’ll be able to pocket in bribe money before the campaign is over?
      Number three if I lose this one will I still be able to keep my current job?

      1. He’s good enough, he’s smart enough, and by golly their ballots are marked for him.

        1. Floridaman

          Yes but fortunately for us, they don’t have the ability to rig a national election.

          1. straffinrun

            You saying Hillary didn’t have junk in the trunk?

          2. Floridaman

            I didn’t hate to see her go, but I did love to watch her leave.

          3. Gustave Lytton

            I can make your beak retch.

          4. He should run with Jill Stein as his running mate.

            Franken/Stein 2020

          5. Mike Schmidt

            I lol’d. A lot

          6. straffinrun

            Me too. Alex Cooper at the convention.

          7. BakedPenguin

            Yep. Good one, Eddie.

  17. straffinrun

    There was an old bastard named Lenin
    Who did two or three million men in.
    That’s a lot to have done in
    But where he did one in
    That old bastard Stalin did ten in.

    RIP Hitch.

  18. __Warren__

    There is no housing crisis in SF/Oakland you fucking morons. Let people build to demand and the problem goes away,

    1. Floridaman

      Problem is, the people in San Fran and Oakland are demanding shit for free.

    2. Juvenile Bluster

      And here we have proof #9,021,000 that progressives hate poor people.

    3. __Warren__

      That’s on top of all the idiotic pro-tenant regs.

  19. Mythical Libertarian Woman

    Just saw this: Milo is self-publishing Dangerous, and suing Simon & Schuster on top of it. He’s also forming his own imprint, Dangerous Books, which he’s going to open up to other authors.

    According to the Daily Caller, a source close to Yiannopoulos says that readers can expect his book to be released around July, with preorders starting later this month. The source says that it only makes sense for Yiannopoulos to publish his own book as he doesn’t need any help to market it.

    “So much of the spotlight is on Milo and the tour but the book is going to do amazing numbers and authors who can’t get published can find a voice with Dangerous Books,” said the source. “Simon & Schuster has more leftist rules than Facebook and censored his book to hell, but Dangerous Books is a free speech platform.”

    1. Mythical Libertarian Woman

      If anyone was interested and missed it, here is a thing I wrote for Glib a few months back where I speculated he might do just this.

        1. For me, Milo put himself out of the “contrarian” box and into the “freedom for the thought we hate” box when he endorsed child abuse and sacrilege, but I suppose that’s what a robust 1st Amendment is for.

          But if he can carry out a First Amendment win, then that would be good for free expression in general.

          1. Chafed

            Yeah, he hasn’t been all that consistent but power to him if it really is a free speech vehicle.

      Shh. Don’t encourage that moron Quincy.

    oh God, apparently Sally Yates is testifying tomorrow, so there are a billion “I’m with her” and #SallyYatesisaPatrio on twitter, as all these people get lost in their own narrative. it’s barfworthy.

    1. one true athena

      I couldn’t even manage to finish the hashtag correctly. Is it still a Freudian slip if you typo?

      Jesus. “Sally Yates will be testifying in public for the first time since Trump dumped her 11 days into his presidency — apparently because she crossed him on his court-challenged travel bans.”

      He wants an AG who’s aligned with him politically? What a monster. He made a shit pick, but blaming him for choosing his own people is insane.

      1. Juvenile Bluster

        She truly made an outstanding career move there. She knew she was going to get fired, she knew she should have quit… but seriously, how much money did she make for herself in doing that?

      2. dbleagle

        I am wishing Yates would jump into the crater on Kilauea as an attempt to appease HRC (PBUH).

        Oh fuck, more RUSSIA HACKKED US HURR DURR coming up.

        1. The Elite Elite

          Speaking of, have the Russian Hackers(TM) finally been defeated? Did someone finally figure out their game and stopped them from hacking France’s election?

          1. John Titor

            Nope, they hacked Macron’s campaign, but fortunately for democracy, France was saved by media laws that require the major news outlets from not reporting on the candidates during the runoff!

          2. The Elite Elite

            Wouldn’t want any last minute revelations that could change people’s minds.

          3. Crazy Russian Hacker’s still active, I hope.

        2. one true athena

          oh yes, apparently Trump’s impeachment trial about being Putin’s Puppet starts tomorrow!!

        3. John Titor

          Meanwhile, a former U.S. President influences the French election in a proven, quantifiable, a frankly shitty way, but that’s fine.

          Just so you know, I got the joke. I was there for you bro.

          1. Gustave Lytton

            I hate those damn stock images. Our HR department loves them and features them constantly. Next time, use real employees that are excited to hear your latest plan to screw them over.

    Has ZARDOZ considered UBER? Or Lyft?

    If so, please let me referral to get the bonus!

      That having been said, I think Ali Wong would be a great addition to the cast.
