I think you may be misinterpreting the concept of satire a little. While it's supposed to be funny, the main idea behind it is to present the subject in the light of ridicule in order to shame it into self-improvement. Usually the motivation behind it is constructive social / political commentary, not necessarily just making people laugh (although humour is a quintessential element).

I do understand satire, I'm a big fan and I'm happy that you see more of it on TV now then I remember when I was growing up. Although this could be because I was so young that I didn't recognise it.

Mint if I'm feelin cool.
Cookie dough if I'm feelin sweet.

Not bad, although I find that some mint ice cream can be too strong and leave you with a freash breath feeling that you really don't want froim ice cream. I've never had cookie dough ice cream but I can imagine that it's nice.

What's yours?

Seeing as it is coming up toi the festive period I'll say something like Baileys Irish Cream, with really Baileys poured all over it. It's the best thing for after the Christmas dinner. Normally though I'd say rasberry ripple.

That's easy, Subway. I'm not a big fan of the more greasy fast food places like McDonalds or KFC, the idea of a sweaty teenager oozing his own grease onto the already fat covered burger kinda repulses me. I know they still have the 'dead behind the eyes' teens working there but they make the shit infront of you and wear those plastic gloves.

How many times do you eat there

Only about once every other month. It's abit expencive compared to just getting something from the shop. I guess that I'm just getting old in that way.

what is your favorite menu from the place?

I guess you mean what would I get? If so I'd get a foot long sub on Italian bread with steak, cheese, jalapenos and mayo, the steak warmed. Try it! It's great.

I like Burger king.

O' God! The grease!

I usually get there fries, a small Dr. Pepper, and a chicken sandwich. Yum.

I used to go to McDonalds when I was a kid, I never really went to a Burger King (think I must have been in one once or twice). Anyway when I went there I always went for the chicken burger, I just prefer a chicken burger to a beef one.

I don't personally know how anybody can "grow out" of satire, but to each his own.

I guess to grow out of satire would be to take everything that you hear completely seriously and therefore could be said to lose almost all sence of humor. I don't think there is a way to have a sence of humor and not like satire even a little.

I still enjoy South Park. I almost wish that I had grown out of it myself but they simply keep making me laugh. Kind of a guilty pleasure for a twenty year old really. Then again I also find Drawn Together funny :P.

It's a good idea I just don't really see it working. It would decrease the amount of B/P a user could get in a day because it woiuld make the voting process a lot more long winded if we had to review every flash. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fair voter, I'm just not the biggest/best reviewer. I'm just not good at writting my opinions doen. So people like me would suffer from this change.

Just downloaded an app with loads of cocktail recipes in it. I then looked towards my Christmas drink pile to discover that I have everything that is needed to make Zombie. It truely is going to be a good Christmas. I think one at about 10am.

I don't think I'm doing too bad for stats seeing as I'm a '10 user. Haven't been on here half as much in the past 9 months as I was for the first 14 or so. I've been trying to be an all rounder when it comes to stats though.

I'm pretty sure that hangovers rarely last over 24 hours.

It was a Spoons I was at the other night XD.

It doesn't taste like urine a la fosters, but it's got enough throughflow so that it doesn't taste of dirty pints and stale beer like most of spoons guest beers end up like.

Can't stand Fosters myself. As for the guests ales I usually like them. I think its nice to have an ale that you my never get the chance to have again because the brewary will probably go bust, cheers XD. Did have a bad one once from there called Mad Dog or something like that. Tasted just foul.

Went to the pub for the first time in a while last night. I'm nit too much of a big fan of drinking out because of the price. Anyway I treated myselkf to two double Makers Marks and a pint of Abbot Ale. Was a good night out.

I've never had a flash blammed, I imagine that it's a pretty bad feeling to see your flash in that dreaded list. Then again some of the crap that gets though it has to be pretty bad.

I figured some Jack and Coke will be good for the weekend.

It always makes a good weekend mate. I'm a big fan of JD the only problem I have with it is the price. I mean you can get a the same amount of Captain Morgan for quite a bit less and I think it's just as nice. Then again I am a big fan of my dark Rums.

net you think you sooooo cool when you do as well ;).

What's your favorite?

Don't really chew gum that often to be honest but if I had to pick one I'd just go for something simple like some Hubba Bubba or something of the sort. I like it fruity.

Thats why you alway double drop just to make sure that you got a good amount in you :). I joke if you not too sure of the strength it's not recommended.

Though it always worked for me ;).

You can now drink though a straw with your jaw shut. So jealous.

I'm currently sat at college watching The Warriors, it's in know way christmasy but it's a day off basically and in some way more so then They Live, which was yesterdays movie. If you want something christmasy to watch I'd suggest The Flint Street Nativity for a bit of a classic christmas laugh.

I just arranged to get quite a large amount of Acid and Weed for over the festive period. I don't expect that I'll remember what was real and what wasn't from Christmas to New Year. Should be good.

Picture of something I expect to see below :). Maybe he'll give me candy.

I got tomorrow left in college yet.

It's Christmas break for me and I'm not gonna do shit but smoke weed and play Skyrim.

Sounds good to me other then the Skyrim bit ;).

How are all of you gonna spend Christmas break?

Probably drinking and experimenting with various drug cocktails. I think it's the way forward this year.

Surprised at the lukewarm rating on IMDb, but I'd recommend it. Only saw it for the first time about a month or two ago.

I watched it on Film4 a while back for the first time and I have to say that I enjoyed it. I've always been one for films that are based on true stories and his is truly something. Although from the outset it seems like it would just be a violent movie it's a great and gripping story I found.

You don't have the amount of posts to get into here as you know and alot your posts although there are only six of them at the moment are a little short, well only one liners. Your B/P is good but you need to work on your posts.
This is not an official no, that has to come from Tails but this is what he will more then likely say.

To be honest I gave up gaming around 6 months ago. I sold all of my consoles (other then my PS2 and a few choice game, which I play on very rarly) and have no desire to buy another one again, modern games simply don't interest me. I'd much rather play a flash game on Newgrounds and try get some more medals then play COD or anything like that.

Because of this I can't really watch, vote, review or simply enjoy most of these game parody flashs. I would most probibly not get half of the jokes.

I don't believe that I'm gettin' anything that would help me in anyway to do with my Newgrounds life. I'd like a new laptop to help with my general level of activity but I think that is simply not going to happen.
