Superficial Sundays on The Daily Quota - our one day of rest where we pursue the trivial and scope the superfluous.
The Daily Quota for today is one of my favourite news clips from The Onion News Network - America's finest news source. What makes it the finest is that is is satirical.
Yep, it's a well-funded, not-so-subtle acerbic critique of the more popular US news networks.
Kinda like The Liberty Tree from the GTA series, which was meant to take the piss out of The New York Times.
Check out their website and you'll see just how much effort they put into taking the shit out of CNN and FOX News.
For instance, they've recently reported on the global, unanimous surrender to North Korea in light of a 10-megaton atomic test, an opinion piece about a man's surprising discovery that sex with a prostitute was, in fact, emotionally fulfilling, and one of my personal favourites, the news that '2012 was once considered the hottest year on record, man in 2024 remembers wistfully'.
The clip I've chosen for you today is one titled CLOSE YOUR FACEBOOK ACCOUNT. It consults a panel of CIA representatives and social media experts as they discuss the enormous success the CIA has had in their Facebook Project.
As we all know, the CIA has owned Facebook Inc. for a number of years, and it's been paying greater and greater dividends for the intelligence agency as more users become more transparent with their lives.
It has apparently been more successful than the Twitter Project, which resulted in '500 billion tweets, and not a single useful piece of data'.
Oh the lols to be had in satirizing something that is quite evidently occurring.
I mean, what else can we do but laugh?
Well, take action I guess, but that requires effort.
