Hot on the heals of the news that Fox News will follow its shiny new Titanic The 1/2 Hour News Hour, with a blog-related show headed by Michelle Malkin. I thought it would be worth wrenching humour back from the horrendous alternate universe populated by the ‘comedic’ spawn of Homo-cepranensis who were a little too fond of their cousins. Below is an abbreviated list of what’s making the oD office giggle..
Sam Geall draws our attention to the dawning of a new era of human communication – check out the Nigerian Scam Parrot Sketch.
Kanishk Tharoor cites an oldie: Dave Chapelle's black Bush.
Rob Cawson highlights the lighter side of real politics.
Felix Cohen posits the crucial role of history in shaping present day America.
Jessica Reed marvels at this guy's ability to make people spend 20 dollars on sheeps they draw themselves.
No selection would be complete without a bit of good ol' Daily Show action.
Some oddities from my side of the world – excuse the obscure cultural references.
Not universally beloved, but a good example of post-Office Brit political humour – with added swearing and universal humiliation.
Now back to watching the 1/2 Hour News Hour.
