Reality is as strange, if not stranger, than fiction and satire itself.

[Paul-Simon]

Honestly wonder how long it'll last

[Samiam]

Thus begins the train wreck in four year long slow motion.

I suggest crossing your fingers and hoping as little of Trump's dumb policies get in as possible.

How long until political satire completely ceases to exist, due to reality surpassing satire itself?

hasn't reality surpassed it? it has for awhile, at least for me

[italics560]

Man I hope he gets in office and does a good job. I voted for him and I feel like it was the right choice by far.

[QUOTE=J!NX;51697431]How long until political satire completely ceases to exist, due to reality surpassing satire itself?[/QUOTE]

That happened in November 8th, ever since I've been quietly hoping that reality will eventually resume again. My hopes are not high at the moment.

[DogGunn]

Oh well, it's happening despite belief.
Might as well enjoy the ride.

Can't wait for Kanye's announcement to challenge Trump in 2020 now.

That's because we except all kinds of strange things in fiction but we don't expect a whole lot of strange things in reality until they actually happen.

I can't believe he's going to be known as President Pee-Pee Head

And that's when reality itself becomes absolutely terrifying.

Except that Michael Flatley and a dance group are performing an Irish dancing routine. I guess music that started in, and thrives in America isn't as American as a style of dancing that originated on an island a thousand kilometres away...

[Fregelicious]

Looks like 2017 is going to be starting out with the death of America this time.

It's only his dance group dancing anyway.

Wasn't Riverdance a bit watered down compared to traditional Irish dancing? And people seem to believe that's all there is to Irish dancing...

But that's besides the point. There is one thing that both Flatley and Trump share:

they're both orange eejits [I][B]:^)[/B][/I]

[matt000024]

tbh Kanye not performing is probably a good thing. Only need one person saying stupid off the script shit today.
