Complete this analogy: Atticus Finch is to George W Bush as....?
Atticus Finch is to George W. Bush...

...as White Bordeaux is to Aardvark Piss.
...as a Chopin Nocturne is to "Chopsticks."
...as "To Kill a Mockingbird" is to "The Pet Goat."

15. That's got to be
the worst attempt of someone trying to be funny in the history of the internet. Way overdone, seems like who ever made it was just pulling ideas out of a hat to trying to be a 3rd rate southpark episode. What is with the geeky high pitched voice narrating it?

Ice is back with a brand new invention

Something grabs a-hold-a me tightly
flows like a harpoon;
daily and nightly


thanks triggering that memory...
