Isnt this the wrong community? This is not an onion or onion like article... I know Chaser usually does that, but there are no jokes or lies in there really are there? All those quotes have been said/written by someone.

Subtle sarcasm is really hard for a lot of people who comment in a community focused on satire, ironically.

In their defense, the party said its most important action item on the talking points memo was not to trust your eyes or your ears any longer.

"Don't look up!"

Just an FYI, the real meaning of that salute is the statement, "I'm a kunt!"
