EDIT Holy crap: http://www.clickhole.com/video/video-seems-silly-it-makes-good-point-264 http://www.clickhole.com/video/video-seems-silly-it-makes-go...
EDIT I just realized in lowerclase "clickhole" looks like "dickhole". Maybe this was an obvious joke all along and I'm slow.
- colanderman 12y agoThey're usually very blatant about where their ad money comes from. See their 7-Up (http://www.theonion.com/video/today-now-offers-7up-ten-chance-for-fruitful-spons,31603/ http://www.theonion.com/video/today-now-offers-7up-ten-chanc...) and Acura (http://www.theonion.com/video/did-the-media-treat-bachmann-unfairly-because-shes,26961/ http://www.theonion.com/video/did-the-media-treat-bachmann-u...) sponsorships. So this doesn't surprise me.

- jkestner 12y agoWell, it's like the Clickhole site - both. I hate artificial generational terms, but ironic contradiction is something that Millennials are comfortable with. (Ooh, I just did it there.) Blame it on the politicians they grew up with.
- jkestner 12y agoRealistically cynical is the description I'd use.
- JimmaDaRustla 12y agoThat video brings satire to a whole new level!
