What is rt?

Fuck it, here goes.

Watch Young Turks
It's cheap, poorly scripted, shockingly unfunny (in spite of its efforts), and generally mind numbing.

Read The Onion
People who actually sit down and read those articles are a bit like the people who only listened to x style of music in high/secondary-school; very try hard and generally dull individuals with a poor sense of humor and social skills.

Watch RT
I shouldn't need to say this but if you can seriously watch more than 7 minutes of their broadcast, without cringing at least 3 times, you're very little, if anything, more than a self affirming tinfoil hat. Aside from that, it's very 'white person with dreadlocks'.

Call you out to go drinking after midnight
If you're about to call someone for any reason at this time of night you must be prepared for one, or both, of the following scenarios.

1. They're at home.
2. They're otherwise engaged.

In the first case expect them to say "fuck that... it's too late". In the second case you can expect a "Sorry mate I'm busy", an "I can't hear you", or voicemail box (there goes another appropriate usage of the serial comma). In either case, the fact that's it's gotten to this point in the night and I haven't tried to communicate with you to express my desire to consume alcohol with you should tell you that it's off the cards for the night.

Actively reject the Oxford Comma
Failing to apply it is a minor issue because you don't always need it to get the point across, even if you omit it while knowing where it should be. Challenging it's validity as a clarifier of expressions is wrong though, as I will demonstrate.

Last week I visited my friends Sean, Wallace, and Gromit.
Last week I visited my friends Sean, Wallace and Gromit.

From the first one it is easy to infer that the person who is making the statement has visited three friends, in the second it really only seems like they've visited two friends; one named Sean and the other named Wallace and Gromit.

Yes, I know that's not a groundbreaking example, but it provides validity nonetheless. I certainly haven't enjoyed being marked down for using it in essays because graders find it "clunky". Didn't even know there was a name for it, just knew it should've been there.

Hate on velcro trainers
I have already discussed my views on this in the thread.

Upload football videos to youtube with shit trance derivatives as background music
Perhaps 'foreground' would've been more fitting, but please tell me that this offense didn't hamper your desire to watch these highlights.

P.S. if you think the intro is fun, wait for the drop.

These, my dear friends, are crimes of bad form.

Russia Today, a 'news' channel. It's a bit like FOX news for reactionary leftists (doubt there technically is such a thing, but there should be).

Actually, it is FOX News.

Everybody is a journo nowadays but you're targetting the wrong group imo. The onion is ok for what it is. I rarely read it though. Seems like an extension of like Colbert or the daily show that imo is also becomming a bit archaic.

People that listen to Bill Maher on the other hand.

People read the Onion like it sits at the summit of modern humour, which is wrong.
I also think it's sad that there are people who sit down and write those headlines and articles for money.

how could you hate on people who listen to bill maher hubb? bill is the man

ehbes · Post by **ehbes** » Wed Jul 30, 2014 3:45 am

Bill does my fucking head in. tryna be snarky and shit. He's Laurence O'Donnell with the ability to swear on TV

DrGatineau · Post by **DrGatineau** » Wed Jul 30, 2014 4:12 am

bill can be snarky and it's funny, but he's not like that all the time and if you think he's just a snarky misogynist, you don't watch the show. laurence odonnell reminds me of my high school history teacher. he's boring as fuck. maher is the furthest thing from him personality wise, much funnier and he's better at proving a point than anyone else on tv except for Colbert imo.

i'm pretty sure anyone with any semblence of a personality does snh's head in. russell brand comes to mind. cenk uygur. rachel maddow. plenty of others...

Any music, I want the commentary ffs.

Also hate when you click on what you think is a video of great goals and it's just some shitty clip of someone playing fifa

Fair point tbh but that's not the case here. Btw I like Brand most of the time.

I can't respect a seemingly intellectual world view that doesn't account for a very big part of international politics, ie the middle east.

Religelous was offensive and stupid aswell. Finding weak opponents of his opinions and exploiting them to look 'clever'.
