    Proof that American news has no sense of irony

    Here's a cracking video from Hamncheez. It shows quite convincingly that American news programmes wouldn't know irony if it came stuck to a bunker-buster

    It has Internet activists up in arms
    Who? Is a reference too much trouble?

    It's the way they report it so seriously that cracks me up. They just do not get the joke.

    I want to know who the Internet activists are

    Forget those T Shirts I would stock ones to really get on peoples nerves, such as the Maddox T Shirt that says:

    "For every animal you don't eat, I will eat three"

    I would have all the veggies on to me for inciting the eating of poor little animals. Pass the brown sauce.
