Following the brouhaha about Valerie Jarrett and “The Planet of the Apes,” we thought it was a good idea to run a quick experiment to see what was and wasn’t still acceptable in the world of political mockery. For this reason, we quickly whipped up the above comparison to Nancy Pelosi and a random baby monkey who would probably make better policy decisions.
The results amazed us: not only did we NOT get sent to Facebook jail (yet), but at last count the picture had been shared with 687,211 people. A number which is all the more humbling when you think that if each one of those people sent us only a dollar, we could be having a way better Monday than we’re actually having…and one which would probably involve popping champagne corks and a number of hilariously rude phone calls to people who annoy us in everyday life.
But no, Facebook glory neither lasts nor pays…but it was still fun to see such a silly post catch on fire for a bit, especially since it emitted the scorched scent of burning liberal fur.
And for the eagle-eyed among you, yes, our Facebook page is still called “Hope n’ Change” though we’re now trying to change it to “Stilton’s Place,” if only to better screw with Facebook’s algorithms.
