NPR has ***OFFICIALLY*** jumped the shark.

[arcadian]

On Wednesday December 03, 2008 at 4:56 p.m. one of their correspondents referred to an artist's work as "trippy". I guess we are to assume that all listeners to NPR have dropped acid? :shrug:

1. Oh please.

Every time NPR interviews a conservative or a preacher, someone on DU just has to hop on and announce they've sold out to The Man and are a front for the international bankers' war cabal. Now one correspondent in one story uses an adjective you don't like and they're... what? Drug fiends? Hopeless squares? Just what the heck is your problem with the adjective 'trippy'?

2. I don't like National Propaganda Radio, heretofore referred to as "The Man" co-opting drug culture.

Got that, Holmes?

3. Right on!

4. You'd have to do acid to listen to NPR

What a fucking bore.

8. Is that .GIF in your sig line Shirley Manson appearing on David Letterman? n/t

9. Craig Ferguson's show, actually.....(n/m)

13. Thanks. I've always wondered. n/t

5. I go on the assumption that everyone I know has dropped acid

Boring old world it would be if they hadn't.

6. Never dropped acid - don't need to

Those who know me would probably say I'm plenty strange enough as it is. :silly:

7. That wasn't Aging Hippie Bob Boilen, was it?

I could hear him saying that.

10. You know what I want to know?

:shrug:

Does the five second rule apply to acid?

[CatholicEdHead]

11. No, they had Huckabee on Talk of the Nation today

:puke:

[underpants]

12. Today they also were amused that Obama's administration could be...

"diverse" and still "competent"

Seriously, I heard it at lunch.
