In Google Russia, TV watches you

So, you may have guessed that I actually stockpile these months in advance. One side effect is that by the time I actually post them, I've had time to realize that they're less funny than I thought.

So here's a bunch from my backlog that, upon reflection, are not funny...

I was going to make a Face/Off joke here, but it seemed to be in poor taste upon reflection

And here, I was going to make a vibrator joke, but it got exponentially less funny as I thought about the fact that there were children in the picture

And this one, now that I think about it, is total pants.

Why can't political news writers write like this? Could you even imagine seeing a headline that read "(insert-political-leader-here) says that tax cuts for the rich benefit the poor too, but he's wrong"?

Update 12/12:

Leah points out that I should not be so hasty in my praise for the headline writer: Ehrenberg may be wrong, but at least he can tell an XBox 360 from a Wii

You an I Under the Stars Tonight

Specifically

Or is yours that kind of arrogant faith that says, “Everyone else must be a complete idiot not to have faith and believe what I believe.” I hope not, because you seem so nice. Plus, I probably don't believe what you believe, so now I'm stupid and how are we going to have a decent conversation once that's established?

and

Are you a kind of arrogant, angry, “only idiots believe in God” sort of person? I hope not. Because if you are, then I’m stupid, and how are we going to have a conversation now that my stupidity is out on the table for everyone to see.

And why is it that whenever an athiest finds out that I'm a person of faith, they assume I'm the former, and whenever I find out that someone's an atheist, I assume they're the latter?

And why are they wrong way more often than I am? (I mean, other than the Fundamental Attribution Error).

You can lead a whale to water, but you can't... Eh. I got nothing.
