Klan not too keen on pink robes
http://www.private-eye.co.uk/content/showitem.cfm/issue.1113/section.fow

"Unfortunately, my fellow Klansmen judged me solely on the colour of my robe. But I can’t help what colour my robe is, can I? It’s what’s inside that counts."

So dumb, I don't think he sees the irony.

5. "Funny Old World" is from cuttings from real news reports

For instance, the magazine carries the 'outsourcing prayers' article from the New York Times that was spotted here a couple of months ago.

Having said that, they have fallen for hoaxes before. It seemed worth posting, even if it's not real.

On edit: damn, it is satire - this looks like the source:

Still worth a laugh.

6. This reminds me of a Chappelle's Show skit
The Gay Klan. They wore pink robes and hoods. :)
