Funny Stuff

Okay, so today is a holiday (for a change) so I’ll skip the Sturm und Drang,  and dive straight in.  But I have to warn y’all:  I’m in a 1776-kinda mood today, even more so than usual.

…which all kinda ties in nicely for today’s holiday now, doesn’t it?

Moi? Never!

I’m not sure about the “pornography” one — to the best of my recollection, I’ve never posted any porn.

Unless it’s “art”, of course.

As for the “graphic violence” and “criminal activity”, I’ve never done that either, although I’ve certainly highlighted it (e.g. Dept. of Righteous Shootings).

However, when it comes to “advocating violence against others”, I gotta fess up.

Oh well.  Nobody’s perfect.
