Poll question: If you were to run for office, what scandal would Fox news run on you
More importantly - is there video on You Tube?



* Note if you have more than one scandal, pick the one most likely to Bill O's head explode

16. It's from a Monty Python sketch ...
to liven up a documentary about mollusks, the narrator starts discussing their sex lives. At one point he says:

... and finally among the lamellibranch bivalves, that most depraved of the whole sub-species - the whelk. The whelk is nothing but a homosexual of the worst kind. This gay boy of the gastropods, this queer crustacean, this mincing mollusc, this screaming, prancing, limp-wristed queen of the deep makes me sick.

11. The worst kind?
I didn't realize that FoxNews had a grading system for us... I thought we were equally repugnant... :shrug:

26. I have a Log Cabin friend.....
He's tried to explain, but it makes no sense to me. I guess he's happy being a "whipped puppy" of sorts.

4. I've hired women to have sex with me
so that stops me from ever running for political office. Fox News would probably find a way to simultaneously bash me for that AND for being a pathetic lonely virgin for way too long.

There better not be any videos, but you never know for sure. :evilgrin:

43. A few pictures.
and that failure to conform to sexual norms part also mentioned. :)

I'm otherwise a stand up, boring citizen (except for the stuff uptight Americans get overly worked up about).

21. speeding tickets and then the suspension of my license after my 3rd offense in a year.
that was a really long time ago but i'm sure Faux could use that to highlight how out of control i am and how i have a problem following laws which of course points out that i must hate cops and if i hate cops i must hate people who wear uniforms and soldiers wear uniforms so you know what that means---"She hates the troops!"

22. What about criminal activity committed during the course of juvenile delinquency?

31. if you were the juvenile
usually you would probably be considered deliquent - get a pass on criminal activity...depends on your age at the time and severity of the crime

example: 8 yr old hot wiring a car = considered to be deliquent
15 yr old hot wiring a car = grand theft auto

not that I would have reason to know

30. Flip-Floppery
No shoes for me in the summer, only flip-flops.

All the other scandals would probably apply, too.

(insert Sherman disclaimer here)

32. Not flip-floppery
News Teaser:

Inchworm's mispent youth and delinquent behaviour led to early criminal activities and an entangled illicit affair. His non-existant financial situation has added to the throws. One thing is certain. He sticks to the issues as they come... we think to a fault... film at 11.

35. Well, I did inhale
I also snorted, swallowed, dropped, drank and yes, I DID have sex with that woman. As well as several men.

Hey, I grew up in the 70's - it wasn't just me!

46. Other. A DUI and destruction of property.
I was being driven home, passed out drunk, in my own car, with 3 friends. The friend driving crashed the car into another car parked on the street and they all ran, leaving the car still running, and left me laying across the front seat, where I was when the cops came.

They tend not to believe you when you say you weren't driving. :shrug:
