Where do we see moderate Merkins out there protesting about the terrorist bombing of innocent people?

There's plenty of them. But they are outnumbered by the nutbags (i.e. republicans)

Aye, where are the moderates Americans who tolerate political difference and embrace cultural diversity and don't think that every brown-skinned towel-head east of Maine (or west of it for that matter) is a rabid freedom-hating proto-terrorist plotting to shag their daughters and behead their pets?

I don't know the length of a moderate merkin these days, what with the popularity of landing strips and Brazilians. Half inch? Full inch? Two? Anything on the inside of the thighs? I'm quite partial to the "Jeeves! Fetch the weed whacker!" look myself, but fashion can be a fickle mistress.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I think the point is that there are bigots in the world. Thanks, Collector Leet. None of us knew that until you came along.

I didn't bother. I'm still waiting for collector to make a point. :tea:

Neither can I now. The clip has been switched to "private".

Hmm, first one was "set to private."

Luckily it's been reposted. At least one of these should work.

It's a repost so the comments aren't the same as when I posted originally, but read them if you like.





Tell me your thoughts.
