A machinist calls his wife from work "honey, I've got some bad news. I cut my finger off at work today"
Wife says "the whole finger"
"nah, the one beside it".

Ha ha, I'm glad you "spelled" it for me cuz I'm afraid I would have missed it! I'm hopefully on the winning laps of another bout of covid, so I'm blaming my extra slow thinking on covid fog brain.

I know this is a popular belief—but it was never true. Read a little about William Randolph Hearst for example.

Oh, I am well aware that there has ALWAYS been a chosen slant to what was dished out to the masses.
They usually at least put on some window dressing, and usually, just stuck to the facts, rather than simply deciding how hard to smear any particular group or person.
As some comic was purported to have said "This stuff writes itself!" (except maybe not in as polite terms!) when referring to the comedy of the Political lot.
Is this @Susquatch?
That is surely true. Canadian humour is quite similar to Australian humour (where I was born). When I moved to Canada there was an American show on Television called Seinfeld. For the first couple of years I just couldn’t get it, the jokes were so blatantly obvious which was not how jokes in Australia often were.
But after a few years, it became very funny to me. Not because the humour was so obvious, but because it was so “off the wall”.
Ok, I’ll test the waters…
Voting for different political parties is like being asked whether you want to be kicked or gouged…
Question: What’s the difference between an Election and a Horse Race?
Answer: You have a chance of winning in a horse race…
(That’s about it for politically agnostic for me…)
Now nobody better be offended by that one! And if they are, I take offense and expect to be apologized to.
Nah, that guy is WAAAAY better looking!

But 77 is better than 69 because you get eight more.
