TheSpoof.com's tyrannical editors changed a word in a recent article, causing widespread anger and outrage. In a particularly tasteful piece about Raytheon's refusal to pay Arizona's new minimum wage to their mentally retarded employees, satirical author Pointer referred to the mentally challenged workers as "goofy bastards".
Clearly this was a cinematic reference to the film classic, What about Mary, a poignant modern retelling of how Mary of Nazareth gave birth to a retarded Jesus.
In the film, Joseph the step -father of the delayed Christ child affectionately refers to him as, "You goofy bastard". Some spoof editor missed the reference and changed the word "bastard " to "clown".
"This is an outrage", Pointer was quoted saying to himself (since no one has listened to him for at least a decade now which is why he is reduced to sending his lame little jokes to freed internet humorzines). We tried not to hear the rest of the rant but considering Pointer's use of a megaphone this proved to be in vain. It seemed to go something like this:
"Clown? I didn't write clown! I wrote bastard cause bastard is what St Joe said to his DD boy savior. He called him a bastard because of the illegitimacy of his birth since God the Father provided the y- chromsome to join with Mary's x-chromosome. That's why he's goofy! Heavenly DNA and Earthly DNA , even if there has been an Immaculate Conception, results obviously in retardation! How else could we explain the ridiculous belief in non-violence, simple living ,social involvement, heartfelt worship and love over law!"
Fortunately the police arrived and dragged the ole hunting dawg away to his comfortable little padded cell that he occupies now and again at St Joseph and Mary's Home for Odd Fellows...poor goofy bastard!
