Triumph the Insult Comic Dog Talks To... Politically Correct College Students

Oh man, oh man. Finally, the voice of reason, as delivered through a dog puppet, arrives.

NSFW. Apparently he's doing this for Hulu, so the light censorship of the Conan regime is out the window now.

"Looking for a safe space, at a safety school."

Gonna post this here too, since apparently people mindlessly move to the top post no matter what:

Twitter just released a statement:

"Twitter stands for freedom of expression, speaking truth to power, and empowering dialogue. That starts with safety."

Then announced the formation of -- I kid you not -- the "Trust & Safety Council" that will oversee Twitter to make sure is a safe zone on the Internet.

81 The kids in the video actually seem like pretty good sports, so I'm guessing they're not the same sort of kids we see shouting down administrators for failing to provide safe spaces. Which makes this even scarier, because it seems like a lot of kids, who haven't been drawing the same sort of attention to themselves, are just regurgitating this safe space/trigger warning stuff uncritically because that's what they pick up from their environments.

108 From the decision desk thread since AtC decided to get it raided what with all of her gamboling:

On with my serial:

Reuben stands enthralled by the basketball as Bunny and Half-wit stalk towards Bernie, their ancient joints creaking. A college student rises to stop them.
Student: "You can't hurt Bernie! He's like going to give us stuff!"
Bunny: "A Bernie-Bro! Get him!"
The student drops sobbing under the weight of guilt the feminists place on him.
Half-Wit: There's galss ceilings Bernie, and one id being broken this year!"
Bunny: "Sort of like the windshield glass you will be going through!"
Half-Wit addresses the young women. "We are feminists and your natural leaders! You will support Hillary because she has Lady Parts and not evil Boy Parts."
Bunny: "Boy Parts are wrong and icky."
The young feminists look confused.
Y.F.: "Like, who are you two?"
Half-Wit: "We are feminists, the leaders of women."
Y.F.: "You're old, like my grandma old."
Bunny: "Hey, I'm not that old for an octogenarian."
Half-Wit: "Besides, Bernies old and a boy."
Y.F.: "Yeah, but he gives us stuff, like free tuition."
Another pipes up: "And he'll give us all jobs in regulatory agencies where we can take the rest of the testicles from the boys."
Half-Wit: "He cannot promise that! Only a woman can promise that!"
Y.F.: "It's like Pokemon, Collect them All."
Half-Wit raises her stubby body to its full height and intones "There is a hot bed of coals in Hell for All Women Who Do Not Support The Inevitable HRC!"
The young feminists stagger back before shouting "Hate Crime!"
"Keep your religion off of my vagina!"
"Safe Space! Safe Space!"
The shrill young voices of the college feminists drive the Vee-Jay Team back across Tank's body and into the van, where the shrill screaming match threatens to shatter windows. Bernie slowly pulls away, silence descending on the bus with only he, Reuben, and the prone bodies of the Bernie-Bros remaining.
RK: "Genuine Spalding." He looks up and notices the lack of women. "Hey, where did everyone go?"
Bernie: "The college girls are in a slanging match with the Vee-Jay Team - those sets of termagants are suited for each other."
RK: "Weren't those your voters?"
Bernie: "There're plenty more dupes where those came from. Hang on, I'm going to make a pit stop."

I used to work for a friend's family that owned a Sinclair station. Back then, if you filled up (12 gallon minimum) you got a blow-up dinosaur and S&H Green Stamps.

Sometimes there were ugly water glasses with each fill up.

Life was good.

Union 76 and the orange ball. I remember bunches of those on car antennas when I was a kid.

Jack in the Box did the Jack head ball for awhile as well.

195 Atlantic-Ritchfield gave customers a red ball to stick on your cars radio antenna.

Union 76 did the same thing with their orange ball.

It actually was kind of useful, since not many did it: you could spot your car in a lot by the ball. It was a really wierd advertising gimmick though. Eventually the ball either came off or wore through the top and slid down.

Porsches get pretty good gas mileage. It's premium gas yeah, but the MPG isn't bad. And if you get the faux-Porsche, ie the Boxster, MPG is close to 30 highway.

Posted by: Nevergiveup at February 09, 2016 03:04 PM (mw8Dm)

My mom got the ugliest round glass shaded hanging lamp. It was orange(Yay, 1960's) with square yellow, brown and orange glass squares glued to it , hanging on a gold chain with the cord strung through. It hung over a plastic brick planter in our living room that the Brady family would have been jealous of. That planter had fake plastic ferns in it.

Now that I think about it, that was some ugly set up. She was thrilled with it though, especially since it was free , it only cost I don't know how many books of S+ H green stamps. I remember going to another town to the store that displayed all the wondrous things you could trade your stamp books for, and that was her choice.

Heh.

An old boyfriend had a story about how, when he was 4, he put those grey metal hairclips, the ones women used to use for making pin curls, all over his dad's head while his dad was snoring away on the sofa. Then he got scissors and started cutting away. His father (obviously a heavy sleeper) woke when his kid had cut off most of the hair attached to the clip. The kid saw his dad's eyes open and yelled, "Don't move, daddy, I'm cutting your hair!"

Daddy moved - quite quickly at that point.

Well, dad was able to go get a buzz cut, which was perfectly acceptable in the early 't60's. If it had been his mother, he wouldn't have made it to his 5th birthday.

My mom got the ugliest round glass shaded hanging lamp. It was orange(Yay, 1960's) with square yellow, brown and orange glass squares glued to it , hanging on a gold chain with the cord strung through. It hung over a plastic brick planter in our living room that the Brady family would have been jealous of. That planter had fake plastic ferns in it.

Now that I think about it, that was some ugly set up. She was thrilled with it though, especially since it was free , it only cost I don't know how many books of S+ H green stamps. I remember going to another town to the store that displayed all the wondrous things you could trade your stamp books for, and that was her choice.

I did not know that they developed a top secret bombsight there that helped us win WWII thanks to its greatly increased accuracy.

Mom also knew one of the guys on the Enola Gay crew. She and a bunch of her girlfriends would dress up in mechanic's jumpers and sneak rides on the planes.

376 Never, ever, have I heard of replacing the brake fluid anywhere near 30,000.

Anyone else ever hear of this?

Posted by: jwest at February 09, 2016 03:23 PM (Zs4uk)


DOT 3 brake fluid is hygroscopic, and can absorb moisture from the air and become corrosive. But I wouldn't do a brake system flush every 30,000 miles. Every 5 years would be plenty, or simply combine it with the next major brake job.

377 What a horrible thing to do to his loved ones

Yeah. Suicide is the ultimate pathetic, cowardly, and most selfish act imaginable. I've been there, and the whole world narrows down to one small point: yourself. That's all you think about. Until I remembered my family and broke out of it.

379 So this sad, screwed guy commits suicide and uses BLM as an excuse and - just wait, the Left will make a martyr out of this pathetic character, just as they made a martyr out of St. Pancake.

Too bad you didn't have a Vince Foster sock on. That'd be incredibly grim.....and darkly funny.

I've gotten really tired of the BLM assholes. If they want to off themselves as a protest, I'm not going to stand in their way.

I just read the Wiki bio for Oscar F. Mayer. He helped found the Lincoln Park Gun club in 1912.

Obama's successor Roland Burris (as State AG) shut down the club over lead pollution in 1991. The club filed a lawsuit but it was dismissed.

But here's the topper:

In 1995, Park District Superintendent Forrest Claypool planned to reorganize the parks as quasi-private affairs, with private companies providing services on the property. That year, the gun club's former clubhouse reopened as a community center. The city had paid $500,000 two years prior for an analysis of the soil and sand where the club had operated; however the study, performed by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, determined that there was no pollution present, and that although there was a significant amount of lead shot and clay pigeons resting on the lake's bottom, it posed no health risk to humans or aquatic life.

Government theft during the Clinton years.
