1. Wasn't the line in the doctor's office funny?
"Don't worry, scro. My ex-wife..."

I coughed up a lung at that part.

7. Yeah...the distortion of history was hilarious.
But god, some of the one-liners in the movie just killed me.

8. Exactly. It's such a brutal satire that Fox didn't want to widely distribute it.
But I sure could go for a BIG ASS TACO.

13. No kidding. I think the movie 'Ass' would be more entertaining.
At least 'Ass' knows it's shitty.

19. This summer's most popular TV show is ABC's "Wipeout"
Which is almost indistinguishable from "Ow, My Balls!"

14. That movie, IMNSHO...
Edited on Sat Jul-19-08 12:37 AM by susanna
...is intense. In every way there is. I had never even seen anyone on DU actually mention it until the last month or so.

Chilling - but brings on the (disturbingly) funny - doesn't it?

on edit: clarity

21. I don't think its that depressing
maybe because the stupid people are like the stupid people I know - they're not bad people, just stupid, which is unfortunate in a lot of ways...
but they want to fix the problems with the plants not growing and the garbage abalanches...

:rofl:

they just don't know how.

but my man Camacho has the wisdom to know a tiny-headed smart guy to help out



:rofl:
