Can you...bear it?

Dear God....it's hideous!  Not to mention that cute, cuddly bears should not be given firearms.  Would you send Winnie the Pooh off to war?  His honey-smeared paws would just make everything all sticky.  How about ol' Yogi Bear, think he'd be able to put down his picnic basket long enough to take out a few Terrrrists with his rifle?  I think not!!

Time to get ugly


Serve your country...literally!  There's just something so endearing about our flag being represented on a staggeringly ugly tray where food and drinks can be placed (and spilled).  U!  S!  A!


OK, just how fitting is this?  Patriotic bull, get it?  Huh?  Sigh...that's too easy.  But seriously, what the hell is this supposed to represent?  I suppose it could mean several things:  the herd mentality of most Americans, our ever-expending waistlines, our neverending production and consumption of 100% American Grade-A bullshit...it's quite a multifaceted image, really.  Maybe I'll buy one after all.

Disclaimer thingy

  • Before you send me hate mail...
    I don't hate the flag, and I don't hate my country. What I do hate is the way marketing people have turned the flag (and America's patriotism) into a way to sell anything and everything they can. I am also disturbed by the fact that people seem to think that waving a flag makes them better Americans. It doesn't. Patriotism is more a matter of community than a matter of how many and how high we wave our flags. This site is a satire of this kind of exploitation, and I hope you can appreciate the humor. If not, then feel free to visit any number of humorless sites out there.
