Would you believe it's the final Derp Roundup of 2013? This is where we bring you the virtual melon rinds and coffee grounds of stories that didn't quite earn a full post of their own, but were too stoopid to ignore altogether. We find they go down a lot easier if you're heavily anaesthetized -- if you can't find alcohol, a couple whacks with a large cartoon mallet may do the job.
Having been in that biz for quite awhile, I can tell you that is 100% accurate. I quit the biz because at my age I don't have a snowballs chance in hell of getting a gig ( I'm over 35)
<i>&quot;The seven principles of Kwanzaa are the very same seven principles of the Symbionese Liberation Army...&quot;</i>
At least Kwanzaa has principles. What does Christmas stand for anymore? (&quot;it is jolly&quot; sez Sarah Palin&trade;).
For better or worse, the Kwanzaa principles -- adopted by the SLA, not the other way around -- are: unity, self-determination, community, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith. Obviously concepts unfamiliar to Ms Coulter.
Wow...that column was basically every Coulter column condensed into one. It was all there: -racist subtext (or some cases text) and/or cultural bigotry; -obscure, out-of-context references to things that sound (or are presented as) nefarious; -conflation of different groups or people into one big anti-American conspiracy; -self-loathing.
&quot;There is no record of a member relationship between Newtown killer Adam Lanza, nor between Nancy Lanza, A. Lanza or N. Lanza with the National Rifle Association. Reporting to the contrary is reckless, false and defamatory,&quot; the [NRA&#039;s] statement said. According to the NRA&#039;s website, the association does not give out formal certificates for membership.

Teatards must have some sort of annual derp quota, that they&#039;re rushing to get out by year-end:
You know that iconic photo of firemen raising an American flag over the 9/11 WTC wreckage? It&#039;s the subject of a lawsuit filed in Federal District Court in New York. The owner of the copyright in the photograph filed a complaint for copyright infringement for the unauthorized reproduction of the photograph on the website for Sarah Palin&#039;s federally registered political action committee, and on her Facebook page. The complaint is that the photograph is being used by Palin to raise money for her political action committee, without permission of the copyright owner.
Palin&rsquo;s lawyers say that because the well-known photo was cropped and altered, it is &ldquo;fair use.&rdquo; (It is not.) They also note that it was &quot;not intended to solicit donations for the PAC in any way.&quot; (The web site solicits and accepts financial contributions, and solicits requests for Palin to make paid appearances.) <a href="http:\/\/www.deadline.com\/2013\/12\/sarah-palin-911-photo-copyright-lawsuit\/" target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.deadline.com/2013/12/sarah-palin-911-p...">http://www.deadline.com/201...
Farby it from me to mellow these folks&#039; harsh, which they are clearly enjoying, but youknow the thing nowadays about DVDs and Hulu and Netflix and iTunes and so on is that <i>if you want to watch the older movies where men are he-men and teh wimmens are fainting violets there is nothing to prevent you.</i> Or your kids.
What they really mean is: No other kinds of movies should ever be made because they offend the Rules of 1952.
I suppose they&#039;d also have to ban all those flicks from the 1930s and 1940s with their strong independent women and unbeefy intelligent men too. WHY CAN&#039;T MOVIES ALL BE JOHN WAYNE AND DORIS DAY FOR EVER AND EVER WAHHHH?
What is this thing with white christian males desperate to be/feel persecuted? Blaming everyone else, including cartoon characters, must be easier than taking responsibility for things in your life.
Ahaha, cropping a photo slightly is fair use, but Shepherd Fairey&#039;s use of a photo to create a painting was not? Good luck with that, Paleface. And good on the photog for calling her out for her usual ridiculous appropriation of 9/11. Man am I sick of that shit. The farther people were from Ground Zero the more they wave their flags and blow their war horns.This is why God invented the DMCA takedown notice.

She cooks up nicely, with hardly any slimy tentacles?
Know Your Cuts of Meat.
Eating the Cthurkey won&#039;t have any effect on your sanity because you will have already gone mad cooking it on a non-Euclidean oven.

She makes every woman I know look gorgeous.
You lost me at <i>Finally, even though it&rsquo;s no meth-fueled masturbatory rage</i>...

It stops the derping or it gets the hose.

Grifter says what?
Relax...it only screams once you put it in the oven.
That&#039;s right...they should be involved in Scouting to learn to be men...and how to light their farts.
