    also the point of the meme is not to convince anyone Glenn beck raped and murdered a woman in 1990

    that's just silly

    But with the Digg (or Reddit effect) you can bet it's already making the email rounds

    Nothing like death panels.

    Are you saying rumors of one murder is more important than the murder of all America's grandmas and grandpas?!

    Advertisers are pulling out of the Glenn Beck show. Do they know about something that happened in 1990?

    A phrase comes to mind for both the Glenn Beck meme and Susan Atkins:

    "Sinking to their level."

    Works better for the Glenn Beck meme though.

    Oh it hardly applies. Don't be melodramatic.

    We're "sinking to their level" as well as Jon Stewart is when he makes jokes, or The Onion. That's all this new meme is.

    It's not, if anyone is actually convinced by the joke.

    Not when the point is to spread it as far as possible and get dumb people to believe it.

    I don't think at this stage there are many people at all who are actively trying to get anyone to believe it. Have you seen the website established? It's worse than The Onion.

    If we have to label everything that is satire as satire, I'll fucking cry. If someone is too stupid to get it, I'm not sure that says anything about the person spreading the rumor.

    I don't think it's related. There's no mention about a murder there, so it can't be related to this new meme.




    It must just be the report from his actual rape from 1990. I should tell people about this.

    the most they can do, at least in jersey, is only allow one cup of alcohol per person with valid ID.

    I'm pretty sure there's no right to alcohol in a restaurant even if you are over 21

    so they could decide not to serve you for whatever reason

    well yesterday you left right as I was getting to ask you what I asked you today.

    then I said something insulting because I knew you were gone. not very insulting, but slightly. more to check if you really had left.

    I didn't believe the rumors at first, myself. But he has been awfully quiet about this issue, despite polls showing that 84% of Americas think he raped and murdered a girl in 1990.

    I'm just asking questions, America.

    Ok so I think I settled on a restaurant. She likes to be surprised, so I'm not telling her what it is. It's a little gourmet than what we usually go for (previously we've gone to a steakhouse, BBQ, fairly cheap Thai food, etc.), which I hope she's okay with. It doesn't have a dress code. There is outdoor dining. A romantic park is in walking distance.

    Pretty much this.

    They could also quite possibly take it away and refund the money if they don't want to risk getting charged serving alcohol to someone with no ID.
