Yeah this is shit.
It's alright Derek, just look at the pretty pictures in the Daily Mail
It's just naked classism. Guess what, plenty of people are thick as shit. We should really be figuring out how to reach those people instead of dehumanising them.
Do you think this is classism, too?
Funnier without the hat, but no, not so much.
You talk about them as though they are a minority. They are the majority.
Pointless as long as the red tops exist.
Oh I thought you were saying it's shit because it's a lousy joke. Like, it's basically a "hurr durr" gag from 2008, with some basic shots at obvious things right wingers like.
Your take is fine too, but god damn the Onion used to try harder to land a gag. It's just second rate Click Hole now.
Although you may be right, this is not actually The Onion
It's definitely that too!
Ok boomer
Still using that?
God the "I don't care but I actually do" responses like this are more cringe than the insult.
I wish I was a boomer, genuinely. I know I'd be a bit old at this point, but they seem to go on a lot of holidays.
