Loading ...This strip establishes the recurring framework of a scientist/engineer showing a politician/businessman the results of a project. It’s something that I fall back on quite often.
Oh, that and crass anti-Americanism. You guys have just made it so easy these past few years.

The US dependence on fuels obtained from foreign countries must end! It is time that we find alternative sources unregulated by outside interests. Uncle Sam wants YOU…to start breeding faster. Do your part!

XD Hahahah!

Oh, I get it! It’s a play on how America hates foreign babies! LOL that’s clever!

I don’t hate foreign babies…

And they make great fashion accessories!

They also taste great too when you slow cook them over a 500 degree roast…

This strip isn’t very funny. It leans way too hard on the “Americans only care about Americans” joke to the point where it barely works.
Your recurring framework is a solid one, though.

Really? Americans only care about Americans? Then please explain to me why our government gives out billions of dollars in aid to fight the spread of aids and malaria in Africa. Anybody? I know anti-Americanism is apparently the new fad out there, but come on. Get your facts straight and use some logic.

*Thats* the cause of Anti-Americanism right there, in case you didn’t know.

…As I said, the “Americans only care about Americans” JOKE. At no point did I say it was true.
April 18th, 2008 at 3:43 pm
Meh, some jokes just aren’t funny.
April 30th, 2008 at 9:08 pm

Did you know that stem cells can be grown on a layer of irradiated fetus?

Ignore the super patriots, this is pretty funny.

So true… I’ve seen people in the states get outraged over news of a mistreated american tourist while barely raising an eyebrow with the slaughter, torture and rape by american troops of the ‘non-people’ they conquer.
August 7th, 2008 at 5:53 pm
Yeah, well… I hate your country too.

Missiles powered by infants that have yet to be born would be a good use of resources.
Missiles powered by infants are twisted.
Missiles fired at infants that have grown into adults are doing their job.

You Americans don’t have a leg to stand on here.
It’s a known fact that you’ve been using foreign babies as an alternative energy source since the early 70s. Yeh, I know it’s a little dated, but check out Liemtat Vieri’s 1993 treatise in the subject: ‘Economy of Birth’. I know it’s at Amazon. Difficult to read in places but quite insightful if you can get past the wanton intellectualism.

I’m American and I thought this was very funny. Sorry people in the rest of the world, this country isn’t my fault. I’ve been voting against the craptastic wonders in charge right now.
September 26th, 2008 at 7:43 pm
Of course, if this joke was written by an American about another coutry then it would be typical American garbage. If you make fun of my country don’t be outraged when I make fun of yours. Not that I plan to. I’m a bit better than that.
