    see, you say that, but I don’t think you realize how stupid Americans are.

    My stepfather did not think it was satire, or a joke. He loved that show and thought the jokes were hilarious. “woman be shopping” etc. I hated that man.

      I know very well how stupid we are. Just look at The Colbert Report.

      But because it wasn’t received as satire doesn’t make it not satire.

        That’s kinda the whole point of satire. Fools arent supposed to get the joke, because they ARE the joke.
