Bay of Fundie

Dilbert (left) and Charlie Butts There is none. Next question! Actually, the above title came to me while reading his latest column at OneNeuronNow, “Scrutinizing the Value of Public Prayer”. Apparently Mr. Butts just sits as his desk waiting for press releases by fundie groups and then refashions them into “articles”. Pretty sweet gig. Most [...]

These are the two funniest captions submitted so far. If you can think of something else, feel free to suggest it. The first was suggested by Brian. The second was suggested by OtherRob. Good job, guys!

Until now, I thought being a conservative douchebag didn’t require any real talent.

They’ve trained me to have very low expectations of them. This particular statistic comes to us from one of [...]

I found this old ad with Sonny and Cher pushing Bibles. I decided we need to make them say something, so I added the word balloons. If anybody is game, help me fill those in. I did come up with something myself, but I’m not convinced it’s funny enough. Whatever we come up with should [...]
