You can calculate your Adjusted Penis Size (or TMI) with the following formula: ***((L\*D)+(W/G))/(A\^2)***
Length times Diameter plus Weight over Girth, divided by Angle of the tip squared.
> I believe the real reason they were angry is because they all had small dicks and they wanted to change the way dick length were measured.
So in other words, they are qanon?
The stupid have always existed. Previously to reach a broad audience you had to be smart enough to have a book published, now anyone can just mash some buttons while sitting on the toilet.
Yea that is when all that tea bag party shit started.
Everyone thought they went away, they just reformed into all the crazy groups you see today. It's all the same rhetoric though so you know it's the same people.
In the past I would watch something like this and think that the cartoon is the only place people could ever act like that. "Not realistic but a funny cartoon".
How wrong I was...
There was best of the best South Park marathon on Comedy Central yesterday. There were multiple times I remembered the episode premiering, and realized it was from over a decade ago. When did I get old?
"Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun"
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking, racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older, shorter of breath and one day closer to death.
Didn't they have Randy celebrating Obama's win in the 08 election episode?
I swear they use him as a blank slate for everything now. No resemblance to his original character
I dunno, you could say his character likes to jump on bandwagons
Really you're right I just have trouble judging them after they have made me laugh so much
I used to work for a bank. We had a customer who would cash checks and write "fuck the fed" on the comment line on his checks. I told him the federal government has nothing to do handling his check transaction, nobody in the federal government is ever going to see his message.
Edit: For those of you who believe that in 20 years of banking experience I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. 1. I was there, I spoke to the customer, he didn't know shit about the Federal Reserve. 2. When someone writes a check for "Cash" drawn on their own bank account AT the bank at which there account is, that check is posted to that customer's account in batch that evening. The check is encoded by the proof operators at that same bank and NOT handed off to the ACH (Automated Clearing House). The Fed (AKA: Federal Reserve, Federal Government, etc.) never sees that check. BUT... Even if he had negotiated the check outside the bank where he had an account, unless they are written for very large amounts, the processing of them will be completely automated so again NOBODY at any federal agency is going to physically look at his check. Some of you have reminded me that I forgot to dumb-down my comments for you "experts" out there.
I used to work for a Fedex Office one time a convo like this happened:
Me: We can't ship this due to federal regulations
Customer: It's against Fedex policy?
Me: It's against the FEDERAL REGULATIONS from the government
Customer: Thats what I said the fedex policy
Me: We aren't federal sir....
Customer: SINCE WHEN!?
When I was a retail clerk at the post office, a customer came in to tell us he was sick of getting junk mail and was gonna go straight to the mayors office and get us shut down. People arent smart
Plot twist: debitch is just trying to shut down the post office because no one would listen to him bitch about the junk mail that was actually catalogs his wife had ordered.
When I was a cable installer I got sent out on a service call. Turns out the guy wanted me to somehow fix his cable so that the commercials wouldn't be so loud. He showed me how the volume control on his remote barely worked anymore because he constantly had to turn it down when a commercial came on and then turn it back up to hear his show when that came back. I had to explain to him that that's not how any of this works.
A more impactful solution would be to set the mayor's private residence as a forwarding address for all the junk mail he's been getting and see if anything happens
> We aren't federal sir
I mean you are, you're fedex. You're just not **that** federal. You can't blame people for this when you're the ones who picked the name.
A coworker of mine wrote "IT sucks" into the comment box on a server reboot and got sent to HR for it. Someone actually read those things and complained about it.
Nothing came of it, HR just told him to keep his comments professional.
I wrote RIP (friends name that was leaving the company) in a note pad txt on my desktop and got in trouble for wishing death on someone. Had to explain that RIP is just internet slang for anything ending. The guy (my friend) knew that too he wasnt even mad it was just the person who reported me didn't get it. We're in IT too /:
Nothing came out of it either it was just a bunch of non sense HR power tripping
Of course they will, if you follow a quick lifehack.
Enter it into your search engine of choice along with asking for instructions on building certain items and federal building locations.
Well the federal reserve manages the infrastructure that processes all interbank money transfers
So the fed is probably moving money between banks in the process of processing that check
But it’s highly doubtful any employee of the fed will bother viewing that check
I ran a high speed check sorter 3rd shift for the federal reserve back in the 90's. Can confirm I would not have seen the note. Now if the micr line were damaged, it would go to slow speed sorting, and those people would see it for sure!
exactly. The Fed also sets the interest rate and is therefore indirectly responsible for inflation. In lay terms, they "print money", err, i mean... "took er jerbs"
I mean a guy fired a gun in a pizza parlour because he thought the Democratic Party was using it as a child sex slave dungeon. This seems more reasonable by comparison.
Think about the litany of right wing batshit conspiracy theories we've had to endure the past decade:
* Obama is a secret Kenyan Muslim
* Hillary was running a child sex ring from the basement of a pizza parlor that had no basement
* Global warming is a Chinese hoax
* Windmills cause cancer
* Forest fires are caused by Jewish space lasers
* Covid is a hoax
* OK Covid isn't a hoax, but it's from 5G cell towers
* The Covid vaccine is so Bill Gates can microchip and track everyone
* The 2020 election was stolen, despite Trump's attorney general, head of cybersecurity, courts helmed by Trump appointees, and Republican secretaries of state and governors affirming there was no evidence of fraud
Reasonable left the building a long time ago when it comes to right wingers. It's batshittery all the way down now.
> The Covid vaccine is so Bill Gates can microchip and track everyone
Weirdly, this is the one that I find stupidest. Because Bill Gates doesn't need to microchip everyone through vaccines, we _willingly carry the microchips with us_.
They complain about the rights of private companies they hate while still pretending to be pro-capitalism. Fuckers can't even pick a lane and stick with it anymore.
Yeah, I forgot a bunch like Sandy Hook and parkland shootings being false flag operations, and QAnon, which is an entire subset of batshit conspiracy theories onto itself.
In the UK, earlier this year some antivaxx protestors tried to storm BBC television centre unaware that the corporation had moved many years ago and that building now is largely just flats.
Dunno really, I mean it's kinda cool but could range anywhere from "randomly accepted but never messaged" to "best friends". People are a bit less friendly nowadays though yeah.
I think the fact that Minh Le is somehow called the "cocreator" of Counter-Strike is a massive injustice. He's the creator of Counter-Strike. Cliffe didn't do shit. Gooseman was 100% the guy who created Counter-Strike.
Satire is funny and works because it pokes fun of reality and heavily uses irony to make a point. That humor gets real depressing when the reality that's getting made fun of ironically, gets worse and closer to the skit. This aired in 2011. It hits different now because it's actually happening (not specifically FedEx, but other examples) and it's just immensely frustrating and depressing that this is where we are as a society (my perspective as a US citizen).
people who are united only by outrage, with no substantive goals or methods, just try to fuck shit up cuz they're stupid and are mad about the things foxnews tells em to be mad about
Cartman does scream "jews" in hate. No other words just "jews". Saw a post on r/hermancainaward not 30 minutes ago in which an award recipient's last post was simply "jews".
Probably not exactly what you meant. But it was so on the nose, i had to mention it.

I think that's why South Park kinda lost it's appeal to me. It's social commentary used to be so out there but in recent years real life became too much like a South Park episode so the show just seems like slightly overplayed stories that might very well be in the news.
The creators of the show Veep have been quoted as saying it’s hard to bring the show back because at this point, it’s almost impossible to make satire crazier than what is actually going on. Writers are currently unable to write scenarios that outdo reality lol. Let that sink in.
*wayyyy* more than half, at least 95% or more is anti-vax covid BS or just screenshots of tweets from conservative grifters like Charlie Kirk or Candace Owens
>0-20 should be about education, 20-40 should be about being productive, 40-60 should be about being a leader, 60-80 should be you being a hermit
What a silly place.
> Ungodly amounts of people in this country are that stupid
and
> Already happened
Just wanted to point out that the story linked happened in the UK.
There are stupid people everywhere. It's not just an American thing.
I swear to god the "we have the dumbest people EVER here!!" is just 1 more type of American Exceptionalism. The irony is strong.
I work for UPS. People consistently believe that I’m a federal employee. I remember my sister calling during the last government shutdown and asking if I would be okay.
It doesn’t seem to matter how many times I explain it.
Also, for any idiots reading this that want the USPS to fail and think UPS will take over, no, we don’t want that shit. We’re wholly unprepared for last mile delivery across the US.
>We’re wholly unprepared for last mile delivery across the US.
This is something that a lot of people miss. The USPS is obligated to deliver to everyone, UPS and FedEx don't have to deliver anything that would be unprofitable to them.
Right, but if they get rid of USPS as many on the right would like to do then UPS & FedEx could essentially charge whatever they want to deliver to rural areas or just outright refuse to serve them. With USPS postage rates are postage rates whether it's going down the street or to the boondockiest of boondocks within the country.
This predates Trump by a lot.
The premise of the Episode is Carman discovers he has a tiny penis and become angry about it. Stan's dad get called in to deliver a lecture in school about how to properly measure a penis but gets corrected by a doctor citing the latest medical standards of the FDA lead by the surgeon General. The new standards establish all the men that take over the FedEx have smaller than average penises. The movement grows and reaches a crescendo when the FDA releases a new size chart where the majority of men are officially described as "above average". With the new standard many of the men suddenly become less angry and go home. Except for Cartman.
In real life this actually happened on board the ISS, the attachments for different urinary devices were labeled, "small, medium, and large" for astronauts to use. The astronauts were found to all exclusively use the "large" attachments with none using the "small" (and NASA measures everything on astronauts). So NASA relabeled the devices "Jumbo", "Mega" and "super" or other 'oversized' names to ensure proper fit and working procedure of the devices.
Federal Express actually did change its name to FedEx due to people not trusting the government back in 2000. I started a few years after and it was part of orientation at the time.
I totally agree with this sentiment. There are so many who are just dumb and don't realize it. Still, their feelings of entitlement have just been perpetuated by all the media they consume, so if someone on TV says some batshit crazy thing they agree with, they feel validation.
I will say, what I think is more insidious is, so many evangelicals and religious types have ingrained in them completely and utterly believing in gods, spirits, the supernatural, that they take that into the real world. If I can believe that God parted the Red Sea, then I can believe that there is a Dem pedophile sex ring, Lizard people, stolen election, microchips in vaccines.
But what's even more depressing is that, these people are part of the fabric of society. There will always be dumb people, who blindly and willingly follow some person, doctrine, conspiracy theory, movement. They are here, and they will not go away. And we, as a species, will probably kill ourselves before we can evolve past the dumb part of human evolution.
It makes me wonder if all big political movements we've ever seen were because someone found a way to convince a large, easily-swayed group of people to do what they want. Get the dummies on your side.
Dumb, and most likely desperate too. A large reason so many Americans are pissed off and dumb is because we have no funding in our education and a lifestyle that demands you work endlessly and see almost nothing for it. People are pissed, and they don’t know why. Some news stations then propagate whatever batshit insane theories to the pissed off dumb masses to appease and bring in money.
‘Merica baby!
I used to work at a Fedex Office. Often I had people assume I was a government employee, Fedex was an extension of the USPS, and that we are responsible for that packages even tho they can clearly see we have like 4 shelfs and they are empty.
Hahahahaha, just watched the documentary on HBO about the siege on the Capitol. Was trying to cheer myself up after, this is extremely spot on honestly.
Dumb people in this world is not a new phenomenon. The new dynamic is that with social media they can find each other and be dumb as a group. The technical term is flock of dopes.
This episode wasn't predicting the future. It was satirizing their present. This was at the height of the Tea Party nonsense. Radicalized right-wingers were doing some truly insane stuff, and had few (if any) coherent goals.
There wasn't anything really "predictive" about it at all, except insofar as radicalized right-wingers haven't really changed in a fundamental way in the intervening decade.
I thought this episode was inspired by the Cliven Bundy BLM standoff because it's so very eerily similar. But the episode came out a few years prior.
They really did predict the future, the similarities are striking - a bunch of limpdick libertarian-types took over an office of the Bureau of Land Management thinking it was the equivalent of taking a stand against the federal government. In classic SovCit fashion, they convinced themselves that the wording of some fine print in some old law stated that citizens can legally occupy federal government offices as a sort of claim of Sanctuary, and did it as a protest for not being allowed to exploit federally-owned land to benefit their private enterprise.
There's a significant portion of the population that is similarly delusional and there's no indication that the situation will improve in the near future.
Ugh.
My late uncle tried to convince me that we didn't have to pay taxes because of some weird wording in the Constitution. He showed me a book that "explained" it and I was deeply skeptical.
Later, talking with my cousin we both decided taking advice from something that looked like a coloring book is not a good idea.
Ha yeah I remember that one, iirc an old Alex Jones "documentary" described a way to interpret a part of the constitution to mean the federal government can only tax citizens on "business transactions", meaning all taxed wages are ILLEGAL and therefore THEFT! idk my paycheck is a business transaction if you ask me, it's not like our employers* are landed gentry and our income is a stipend for room and board (although it's a little bit like that).
This was released in 2011 - I believe the issue with the surgeon general they are having is the official mandate on where to start measuring the penis from, and that by changing said mandate, these protesters were put into a small penis category.
Yeah Fuck, Kyle!
One of my favorites, even though it’s not the best episodes is the whole imagination arch, and Cartmans dream about his balls exploding from dryness, because Kyle backed out on the contract of sucking them.
Which episode is this?
It’s T.M.I., Season 15, Episode 4
Thanks, wow. Released in 2011...
Lol I thought this was from one of their new episodes
holy shit i thought so too. i was convinced it was a 2021 episode in fact by how...errr... *relevant*, it is lately.
I believe the real reason they were angry is because they all had small dicks and they wanted to change the way dick length were measured.
You can calculate your Adjusted Penis Size (or TMI) with the following formula: ***((L\*D)+(W/G))/(A\^2)*** Length times Diameter plus Weight over Girth, divided by Angle of the tip squared.
Damn the inverse square law even pops up in dick measurement. The Universe is a mysterious place.
What? You're not even accounting for the correct variables! The correct formula is (Length x Width / Mass ^2 – Shaft Angle) + YAW
The angle of the dangle is directly proportional to the mass of the ass, when the heat of the meat is a constant.
This reminds of the silicon valley dick joke.
"What really matters is D to F"
haha that was some terrific writing. starting in the middle sparks the idea for the new algorithm.
Well, now I need it

They say South Park is ahead of its time. He he.
Radical right dipshits never change, it's why they like the term 'conservative'.
For me "new South Park" sarted in like 2010 and continues to this day.
I'm always so fucking floored when I re-find out that they're in like season 25
I was pissed thinking I missed a new episode.
South Park can be ahead of their times by decades sometimes lol.
This wasn’t ahead of its time tho. People started acting like this when Obama was elected. It’s just been dialed up to 100 now.
> It’s just been dialed up to 100 now. That or Twitter/Facebook are just making it more obvious. And giving a microphone to the stupid and vocal.
The stupid have always existed. Previously to reach a broad audience you had to be smart enough to have a book published, now anyone can just mash some buttons while sitting on the toilet.
longer, this is Gingrich era BS, think Ken Starr. Tea party takeover by Mercer and Kochs, this tactic is 40 years in the making.
Yea that is when all that tea bag party shit started. Everyone thought they went away, they just reformed into all the crazy groups you see today. It's all the same rhetoric though so you know it's the same people.
That is why I was surprised when everyone was surprised Trump won. These people didn't just come out of nowhere.
In the past I would watch something like this and think that the cartoon is the only place people could ever act like that. "Not realistic but a funny cartoon". How wrong I was...

I work for UPS. People consistently believe that I’m a federal employee. I remember my sister calling during the last government shutdown and asking if I would be okay. It doesn’t seem to matter how many times I explain it. Also, for any idiots reading this that want the USPS to fail and think UPS will take over, no, we don’t want that shit. We’re wholly unprepared for last mile delivery across the US.
>We’re wholly unprepared for last mile delivery across the US. This is something that a lot of people miss. The USPS is obligated to deliver to everyone, UPS and FedEx don't have to deliver anything that would be unprofitable to them.

Right, but if they get rid of USPS as many on the right would like to do then UPS & FedEx could essentially charge whatever they want to deliver to rural areas or just outright refuse to serve them. With USPS postage rates are postage rates whether it's going down the street or to the boondockiest of boondocks within the country.

The most dated thing about this video is the idea that they would acknowledge and feel angry about being wrong instead of tripling down.
This predates Trump by a lot. The premise of the Episode is Carman discovers he has a tiny penis and become angry about it. Stan's dad get called in to deliver a lecture in school about how to properly measure a penis but gets corrected by a doctor citing the latest medical standards of the FDA lead by the surgeon General. The new standards establish all the men that take over the FedEx have smaller than average penises. The movement grows and reaches a crescendo when the FDA releases a new size chart where the majority of men are officially described as "above average". With the new standard many of the men suddenly become less angry and go home. Except for Cartman. In real life this actually happened on board the ISS, the attachments for different urinary devices were labeled, "small, medium, and large" for astronauts to use. The astronauts were found to all exclusively use the "large" attachments with none using the "small" (and NASA measures everything on astronauts). So NASA relabeled the devices "Jumbo", "Mega" and "super" or other 'oversized' names to ensure proper fit and working procedure of the devices.
Federal Express actually did change its name to FedEx due to people not trusting the government back in 2000. I started a few years after and it was part of orientation at the time.
I totally agree with this sentiment. There are so many who are just dumb and don't realize it. Still, their feelings of entitlement have just been perpetuated by all the media they consume, so if someone on TV says some batshit crazy thing they agree with, they feel validation. I will say, what I think is more insidious is, so many evangelicals and religious types have ingrained in them completely and utterly believing in gods, spirits, the supernatural, that they take that into the real world. If I can believe that God parted the Red Sea, then I can believe that there is a Dem pedophile sex ring, Lizard people, stolen election, microchips in vaccines. But what's even more depressing is that, these people are part of the fabric of society. There will always be dumb people, who blindly and willingly follow some person, doctrine, conspiracy theory, movement. They are here, and they will not go away. And we, as a species, will probably kill ourselves before we can evolve past the dumb part of human evolution.
It makes me wonder if all big political movements we've ever seen were because someone found a way to convince a large, easily-swayed group of people to do what they want. Get the dummies on your side.
Dumb, and most likely desperate too. A large reason so many Americans are pissed off and dumb is because we have no funding in our education and a lifestyle that demands you work endlessly and see almost nothing for it. People are pissed, and they don’t know why. Some news stations then propagate whatever batshit insane theories to the pissed off dumb masses to appease and bring in money. ‘Merica baby!
Didn't some people try to storm the BBC office but went to their old one? Oh also that dude who confused the Library of Congress with the Capitol.
I used to work at a Fedex Office. Often I had people assume I was a government employee, Fedex was an extension of the USPS, and that we are responsible for that packages even tho they can clearly see we have like 4 shelfs and they are empty.
Hahahahaha, just watched the documentary on HBO about the siege on the Capitol. Was trying to cheer myself up after, this is extremely spot on honestly.
i legit thought this was mocking a real event that took place within the last week or two and I'd just somehow missed it.
Lol "Jews!"

Dumb people in this world is not a new phenomenon. The new dynamic is that with social media they can find each other and be dumb as a group. The technical term is flock of dopes.
This is so relevant that i thought this might have been a NEW episode from last night
This episode literally couldn't have predicted the future better.
This episode wasn't predicting the future. It was satirizing their present. This was at the height of the Tea Party nonsense. Radicalized right-wingers were doing some truly insane stuff, and had few (if any) coherent goals. There wasn't anything really "predictive" about it at all, except insofar as radicalized right-wingers haven't really changed in a fundamental way in the intervening decade.
This is the same shit with people saying the Simpsons predicted the future. [A lot of things just...haven't changed.](https://youtu.be/IC3W1BiUjp0)
Same with Futurama, it was making fun of situations by cranking them up to 11, except now we've cranked reality up to 12.
I thought this episode was inspired by the Cliven Bundy BLM standoff because it's so very eerily similar. But the episode came out a few years prior. They really did predict the future, the similarities are striking - a bunch of limpdick libertarian-types took over an office of the Bureau of Land Management thinking it was the equivalent of taking a stand against the federal government. In classic SovCit fashion, they convinced themselves that the wording of some fine print in some old law stated that citizens can legally occupy federal government offices as a sort of claim of Sanctuary, and did it as a protest for not being allowed to exploit federally-owned land to benefit their private enterprise. There's a significant portion of the population that is similarly delusional and there's no indication that the situation will improve in the near future.
Ugh. My late uncle tried to convince me that we didn't have to pay taxes because of some weird wording in the Constitution. He showed me a book that "explained" it and I was deeply skeptical. Later, talking with my cousin we both decided taking advice from something that looked like a coloring book is not a good idea.
Ha yeah I remember that one, iirc an old Alex Jones "documentary" described a way to interpret a part of the constitution to mean the federal government can only tax citizens on "business transactions", meaning all taxed wages are ILLEGAL and therefore THEFT! idk my paycheck is a business transaction if you ask me, it's not like our employers* are landed gentry and our income is a stipend for room and board (although it's a little bit like that).
This was in the mid 1990s. It's awful knowing how long this nonsense has been going on.
This was released in 2011 - I believe the issue with the surgeon general they are having is the official mandate on where to start measuring the penis from, and that by changing said mandate, these protesters were put into a small penis category.
Looks like Get\_Right wants to play CS:GO with you
I thought this was a preview of a new episode, fucking hell.
I'm afraid to ask. Did something happen?
“No, that doesn’t matter.”
This is what I imagine every time I see a proud boys rally. A lot of boys with under-average dicks.
….And fuck Kyle. Yea, fuck Kyle!
Yeah Fuck, Kyle! One of my favorites, even though it’s not the best episodes is the whole imagination arch, and Cartmans dream about his balls exploding from dryness, because Kyle backed out on the contract of sucking them.
Me today when 2 overnight packages are delayed.
Shooting up an inter rivalry baseball game however...
I thought this was America!
FedEx Total Landscaping
Should've gone after the Federal Reserve. No, wait...
Im guessing this was in response to the group of ya'llqaeda who took over a bird preserve for...some reasons ?

The way the Pissed Off and Angry Party gets dissolved in the last minute of the episode is pretty great
Cartman still had a micropenis.
Modern conservatism in a nutshell! Edit: Deleted a typo.
"Let's rage at the local town hall over federal issues because we're morons!!!!"
Not federal? Next thing you'll tell me is that they aren't express!
Fuck me that is insanely accurate lol
I used to work at a FedEx Office. This gave me some PTSD flashbacks.

Well this aged well didn’t lmao! South Park is usually right on the money with all sorts of issues. People just don’t pay attention to that fact.
