I found the SNL TV Funhouse video I mentioned yesterday and the map of Dumbfuckistan via Project Somewhere. Once you watch the video it will all make sense.
Since it is a pretty political cartoon I thought I would toss in some related links. Here is an interesting article I came across - Welcome to Dumbfuckistan — That’s in Red America, where working-class Americans persist in voting for a party that wholly rejects their most fundamental economic interests.
Also, a recent manifesto from ChangeThis, The George Lakoff Manifesto. In it he discusses how conservatives have managed to frame public debate on just about every issue.

This past Saturday on SNL Robert Smigel put together a cartoon - A Blue Christmas. The animation in it was great, they made it look like the old Christmas specials.
The company who put it together is called Bent Image Lab. If you visit the site, they have some of their commercials on the home page. Take a look at the Office Max one, it is the same style they used for the SNL cartoon.

It appears last week a man in Perth, Australia decided he couldn’t get beer in his body fast enough. He built a device to pump it right into his stomach. The device was so powerful it ripped a hole in his stomach causing the beer and food to spill into his abdomen.
One of the funnier parts of the story is that health experts actually have to release a comment.
Health experts yesterday warned people not to build gadgets that allowed the rapid consumption of large amounts of alcohol.
So the stomach getting ripped open story isn’t a deterrent enough?
You can read the full story.
