it’s like getting punk’d, only even less funny

When I was a kid, the show was called Candid Camera, but the idea was more or less the same: see how long someone would acquiesce to a ridiculous situation before saying “what the fudge is going on here?” It was a show based on gullibility, humiliation, and the willing suspension of disbelief.


Back then, they’d say, “Smile, you’re on Candid Camera!” Now, it’s “You’ve been punk’d!” Either way, it’s a great big “I can’t believe you fell for that shit!”


I keep waiting for the Democrats to say “What the fudge is going on here?” Until they do, you sure as hell ain’t going to see a whole lot of Republicans saying, “I can’t believe you fell for that shit!” It’s like getting punk’d without Ashton Kutcher popping out from behind the curtain. . . ever!

In fact, it’s worse. . . so much worse, it needs a new name.
