I used to like Rage Against the Machine until they got all political.

What qualifications does Tom Morello have to talk about politics?

This prompted me to look at his Wikipedia page a bit. Thought it was interesting that he has a bachelor's degree in political science from Harvard.

ITT, people who can't distinguish between idiocy, trolling, sarcasm, and very dry humor lol

I see you, Norm McDonald

Norm McDonald is dead and I'm very much alive.

You could have a very advanced predictive comment system.

If you really want to convince us that you're NOT Norm, saying something nice about the Courtney Thorne-Smith (of Melrose Place fame) movie Chairman of the Board should do the trick!

It might hurt your case that you're NOT Norm significantly, but go ahead 😄

Um, it's Chairman of the BORED, thank you very much

Damn, it feels good to be a gangsta

I mean, look at that name. Satire/troll, it's all the same.

I won't sit by and let you besmirch the good name of SatansMaggottyCumFart!

I can't tell if this is sarcasm

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

It definitely is 😂

Besides the fact that he has a degree in Political Science? Or the fact that Rage has always been a political band? Or someone asked a question and he answered? Which one do you prefer?
