Why don't you post the Brazilian joke there ?
It could be like a science experiment...or something.

Didn't we do something like this a few nights ago ?

4. Did someone reply saying......

..."Oh my god, how can you laugh when the lives of Brazillian farmers have been exploited for YEARS with the United States draconian policies regarding organic vegetable importation."?

5. Yeah it was !

I recommended it !
I didn't realize it made the greatest, that's too funny.

:applause:

So ? Are you going to post the Brazilian joke ?
I don't want to piss off the GD people, but, on the other hand, sometimes you just have to poke the rabid dog with a sharp stick !

12. CG, I thought the slumber party you started on another Hillary thread

went over pretty big in GD. :smoke:

6. I have been snarky in GD

They don't appreciate my rapier like wit.

:popcorn:

9. Yeah, they take it seriously and then spit fire at you.

It just doesn't work. I have never seen so many people who don't understand the concept of a joke. It's funny if you think about it. Too bad we can't just make a game of it and make jokes there anyhow and laugh at them. :evilgrin:

10. I made a joke there about the governor's race in Arkansas

Apparently one of the Dem candidates in the upcoming primary is named Halter. I posted to say "Halter is tops with me!" and a DEM lt. guv candidate in that state replied to say that halter was a corrupt prevaricatin' douchebag or something like that and took me SERIOUSLY!

11. I love it when a candidate shows up at DU

...and they are from your state and asks if you would support them. And it's like "Uh....dude, weren't you the one advocating burning down the state house last week.....uh, I'll pass."

13. Hasn't happened yet in Iowa

The guv candidates are too busy with a foodfight.
