I just watched The Colbert Report with 4 college-educated people

and not a single one of them understood that Colbert is playing the character of a right wing commentator and satirizing their views.

Everything our parents said was good is bad. Sun, milk, red meat... college.

I know - it's weird, isn't it. My husband's college roommate - who was a political science major, no less - seems to be completely missing the point as well. He literally told me that he thought Colbert was a great counterpoint to "that liberal Jon Stewart."

to: conservatives who are convinced that Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are having a pro-Democratic effect on election day

DON'T WORRY.

"People tell me I'm white, and I believe them, because I shop at Eddie Bauer."

I watched a bunch of episodes w/my community college peers whose second language is English and they, THEY all got the persona jokiness.

College is a means of getting a piece of paper, not an education. Education can be had without a piece of paper following it.

I'm not a big fan of paper.

OH COME ON HE WAS A LEGACY

― GAWD PVNCH (yournullfame), Friday, 8 December 2006 14:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I think the key here is these people are probably conservatives. That lack of intelligence has nothing to do with education.

Actually I've never asked Tracer how he got into Brown, maybe he's an alaskan bushman too

Centuries of Tolkein and intermittent Lutheran influence from the Honkies has shaped the Ohio-Minnesotan Bushman culture into its modern form. Computer science, German opera and Dr. Who Slash are the principal arts among the Ohio-Minnesotan Bushman tribe.

I think that asterisk represents an anus.

At least, that's the first thing I thought of.

As per usual.

― Jesus Dan (dan perry), Friday, 8 December 2006 17:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Being called a "dot anus" is kind of harsh though.

― Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Friday, 8 December 2006 19:31 (seventeen years ago) link

That didn't actually happen, you admitted that pizza with the sauce on top of the cheese was weird, you agreed with me. What we actually learned is that you are a grade A homosexual and your wife is a beard.

wtroffle at the beard

A pizza works as follows (imagine this is a cross-section):

cheese
cheese
toppings
cheese
sauce
crust

If you like, you can put more cheese on it.

I'm still confused: whose musical band?

― TOM. BOT. (trm), Friday, 8 December 2006 19:37 (seventeen years ago) link

George's most peculiar/disturbing feature:

1. the mullet
2. the stache
3. the hemp necklace
4. the perplexed yet somehow blank look

This is a strong contrast with Nintendo's Wee there, who appears to be enjoying himself and his newfound love for increasing his Sales potential.

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Friday, 8 December 2006 19:44 (seventeen years ago) link

their own musical band
