SteamPoweredKleenex      If people like the Koch Brothers paid me to perpetuate a delusional ideology, I'd probably be able to afford a lot of happiness, too.

Toenails      Healthy people don't call themselves Vodka Pundit.
Just sayin'.

Old_Zircon Healthiness and happiness aren't necessarily correlated, though.

sosage      Every conservative I run into seems to enjoy trolling everyone around them into discussing their right wing propaganda. So...I mean...trolling people does sound like fun.

dead_cat Being allowed-- no, encouraged -- to be the best and biggest dick you can be could be a LOT of fun for the right sort of person.
Whatever would these guys be doing if it weren't for those old, strongly-patriarchal desert religions and today's US conservative ideology?

dek863      I'm still not convinced this isnt the Onion.

dead_cat Sometime in 2001, during an attempt at an upgrade, the Onion servers suffered a bizarre meltdown, followed by an even-more-bizarre explosion that had the somehow even more bizarre effect of altering the nature of reality. Since then, we have been being steadily enveloped by The Onion Universe.
It is with us, around us, in us. It IS us.
And now, time for more photos of face-eating chimpanzees dressed as congressmen!

dead_cat      Yeah, well, a goldfish is happier in captivity than a chimpanzee. We should all try to be goldfish.

John Holmes Motherfucker This just in: People who believe in fairies happier than people who don't.

CIWB      It's like they've never even heard of "ignorance is bliss".

themilkshark      Awkward, weighted pause after the closeted gay man tells his canned joke.
|
John Holmes Motherfucker I'm glad they're happy, but it sure doesn't stop them from complaining after 30 years of things pretty much going their way.

BHWW According to our totally unbiased study [partisan group x] is [better/faster/shinier/happier/smarter] than [partisan group y].
|
Old_Zircon I buy the premise behind this. It's much easier to be happy when you're completely deluded.
