Conan O'Brien - Flushing a Book Down a Toilet
http://none/ ^ | 5/18/05 | me

Posted on 05/18/2005 9:49:42 PM PDT by F15Eagle

LOL, Conan O'Brien just had one of his staff guys try to flush a book down a toilet. So as not to offend, they tried one of Paris Hilton's books. They even tried a plunger. Hilarious!

I apologize, I've probably not being very culturally sensitive.

I do believe Mr. O'Brien is a conservative.

At the very least several of his writers are, and he has often expressed very conservative views on various issues.

He has poked fun at the Holy Father, Benedict the Sixteenth, but I think I read somewhere that Mr. O'Brien is a practicing Catholic.

I could be wrong.

There were a couple other funny ones in the monologue regarding this issue. He was dead on accurate too.

I wouldn't keep ANYTHING out for Paris Hilton - I might catch something.

Her book didn't flush.

But would Paris Hilton? In the name of science, this must be tested.

I don't think there's any reason to bury this thread. O'Brien's unspoken point is that IT CAN'T BE DONE.


I've been shouting that at my TV and my XM radio and my computer for a week!

No need to apologize there FRiend.

I was not aware that "being culturally sensitive" was a virtue in the first place.

Looks like you though might be running a high fever from that insideous disease called political correctness. You realize of course that if you don't do something about it now that it will eat away your soul like a cancer.

This is no joke, people better wake up to fact that we just gave the Islamokazis the right to set off nukes, bioweapons or whatever they might have in their arsenal. The country should go on high alert. Think, Salmon Rushdie.

LOL, no kidding! If they would think for ONE minute.

But, it's much easier to riot, burn and kill. Just like the lemmings Yasser Arafat urged on to their deaths. Unbelievable.

Newsweek was very irresponsible. But in the final analysis, those who rioted are no less guilty than those who hijacked the planes on 9/11, IMHO.

Well, I spoke with a highly-placed gov't source, who had a friend, who saw somebody, who's sister's brother's girlfriend's cousin knows somebody who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night.

So I'd say it's 92.7% accurate. At least. I think.

My favorite was the bit by Andy talking about the ghost of Christmas past visiting Michael Jackson - only to have MJ fondle himself as a kid.

Man, Conan is on tonight!

Oh I'm sure until they feel they can dominate the world, they'll try anything. I seriously expect them to try again, no doubt. If it's not this, it's "infidels in the ME", if not that, it's about "Israel and Zionism", blah blah blah.

Oh yeah, we've definitely got a real problem to deal with.

If you want to laugh, try this one. This one wrecked my keyboard.

"To flush the Koran down a toilet? Now, anyone who’s tried to flush anything down a modern toilet knows that this is highly improbable, but we decided to test it out for ourselves.

Not wanting to provoke another bloodletting across the Muslim world, we used a simulated Koran, specifically Al Franken’s scholarly tome Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot (we were going to use Franken’s more recent book with the slightly more humorous title of Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them, but we couldn’t find any laying around that we could pick up for free in the 30 minutes we allotted for this research)......"

Oh please. Do you really want to apologize to a group that beheads people in their spare time? A group that can move into a school and murder children like we have seen in Russia?

Get off your knees and grow a pair. It's time where sensitive should be replaced with sense.

Maybe we could get them to shop instead of riot? It would be good for any economy AND nothing lets off steam like a shopping spree! (I've heard, LOL)

Most Arabs use the squat-style toilet. You squat over the hole, one leg on each side, do your thing, then dip the small bucket on the floor into the water in the big bucket and use it to swish away your dump. Then you dip the little bucket attached to the bigger bucket into the big bucket and then use your (left) hand to splash that water against your bottom to clean yourself up instead of using toilet paper.

Just thought you might be interested.
