Did you enjoy the dueling speeches yesterday when Sleepy Joe steamrolled Brain Dead Donny?

Biden delivered a long, coherent, topical, devastating for Trump acceptance speech, Trump, again ignored precedent and manners by holding rallies and giving rambling, disjointed speeches at the same time as the Democratic nomination like a two year old screaming for attention at an opera, talking about low flow showers that he says barely drip water, mosquitoes, how he hates sharks, and attacking Joe for moving from his birthplace, accusing the then 10 year old Biden of "Abandoning" Scranton.

You say Biden is losing it?! LMFAHS!!
Trump at his best never held a candle to Biden at his worst. It's going to be hilarious to watch sleepy Joe wipe the floor with Dumb Donald at the debates, Trump can't edit the footage to his advantage there, and gaff to gaff, Biden comes out looking like an adult, but not Trump. How's he going to spin being made a fool by the guy he says is suffering dementia and rapid mental decline?
Kamala V Mike is gonna be a massacre. It should probably be NC17, she's gonna eviscerate him and send him crying to mother.

BTW, did you throw your Goodyear tires away yet? You know Donny said to boycott them because they won't let his people wear maga hats at work. (They don't allow any politics at work, especially campaign clothing). Better get to it, Trump has cancel cultured them, he's counting on you to destroy that American business.

John Oliver - Scranton Train ... wait for it ... This is GREAT!!

They forgot these:

- Cabin service so frosty it makes a Moscow winter look like fucking Maui. (See: Icelandair)

- Fist-swinging free-for-all trying to grab aisle seats near the front of the plane (See: Southwest).

- The prepaid-for seat shuffle where the seat you reserved three months ago gets taken from you and you're reassigned somewhere near the head at the back of the plane. (See: Alaska Airlines)

- "Aww, Sweetie, did you want a sandwich on this 7-hour trans-Atlantic flight? THAT'LL BE 30 FUCKING EUROS PLEASE. Oh, you want to pay in dollars? Ok, that'll be 45 bucks at the current exchange rate plus conversion and transaction fees. Here, enjoy this three-day-old reindeer meat sammich that's dryer than the twats of the frigid cabin crew who served it to you." (See: Icelandair (again))

- Ladies and Gentlemen, we apologize for the 6g maneuver our former Air Force pilot is about to pull in order to avoid having to do a go-around because we were too busy discussing the new stewardess' tits to watch the glide path. Please keep the screaming in terror to a minimum as he startles easily . . ." (See: Delta)

- "Ladies and Gentlemen, we've now arrived in Scranton . . . oh, fuck, this isn't Pittsburgh!" (See: Delta (multiple times))

Yeah -- I just LOVE flying.

...and with that context, it was pretty funny. By itself, not really.

A little background:
Toby, the head of Human Resources at Scranton paper (where Michael (Carell) is the boss), is a dull, dreary and essentially boring person. Michael hates his guts, and would like nothing more than for Toby to just disappear.
Prior to this episode, Toby did disappear, on a 4 week paid vacation.
This was the very first 17 sec of the first episode of Tobys return to the office from his holiday....Michael, clearly not a happy camper.



Actually, by itself it's a great way to be sarcastic at work. For instance, if one of my underlings asks to go on an extended lunch or take a day off from work I would send them this clip in MSN. The context doesn't matter because we all know he's a boss saying no so it's funny. But it's more of a functional humor, similar to using an Arnold Schwarzenegger soundboard to answer specific questions during an interoffice meeting. Is each clip funny on it's own? No. Is it funny when it's used as a replacement for speech? Yes.

...and with that context, it was pretty funny. By itself, not really.

Thanks; I had forgotten what this was about.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Of course she won this one- her grand pappy worked in the lace factory in Scranton all his life. You can't buy that kind of provenance.

oh! btw, only reason i didn't upvote yours, is because i was under the impression that full copies of anything didn't belong here. forgot to mention that when you posted your comment.

Hey, changed your tags 'cos my own "The War Tapes" sift didn't autolink to yours. It should now (and I don't think it was filmed in the 'Stan, although I could be wrong).

If I may make a shameless plug: My fellow Sifters! The full film is in the queue right now, go vote it up if you please.

EDIT: K, nobody's upping it, so I'll discard. But here's the link to the full film on Google Video:

TED Talks are excellent. The more people get exposed to them and expect excellence despite their length, the easier it should become to sift them.

Having used Salvia 10x several times successfully over the last several months, let me be the first to say: Respect it. These YouTube videos of kids doing bong loads of the stuff is pure looney tunes. Of course you're going to have a bad trip if you do that much all at once. Even I haven't progressed passed taking 1-2 hits in one sitting.

With all that said, it is truly a pleasant experience depending on how you use it. I have had soft music playing in a dimly lit room and have had some very transcendental experiences. I had one very pleasant trip where I felt like I had regressed back to when I was 2-3 years old, when you are making your first memories.

Other times, I've tried it a few times while playing Quake 3 and BF1942 and all I can say is, you are IN the game. Very wild. Also, tried it once while watching the TV show "The Office" and the mockumentary style lent itself perfectly to it. Made me feel like I was actually at Dunder-Mifflin Scranton branch listening to them scheme on how they were going to screw with Dwight.

But again, RESPECT the Salvia. Cause it will kick your ass.
