Jon Stewart said some funny stuff on his show last night about people most redditors think had it coming. (Just upvote this one every morning and be done with it.)

Crying circle jerk is the ultimate reddit circle jerk.

A complaint because people submit a Daily Show link that other Redditors would find relevant & amusing?
Someone woke up on the wrong side of the monitor...

"This monitor's shite! I can't see a ruddy thing!"

It was not a complaint, sort of amateur satire. I believe the old people call it "poking fun".
1
No, a complaint because the SAME bullshit gets stickied to the front page every single day.
Look, I LIKE Jon Stewart and I am a bleeding-heart liberal but enough is-a-fucking-nuff. I don't know how many more times I can stomach Jon making funny faces at the camera as yet another politician makes some stupid remark.

You could...you know...not click the link.

KCBassCadet probably thinks, "Yeah! Something I don't like showing up all the damn time in a place where I supposedly can filter my news."
I know I wouldn't want to go to a site with a list of news stories, only to see a few out of many that I dont like.
Oh wait I still use reddit... Sorry, none of this applies to me.

You do know that Reddit has subsequent pages after the first one, right?

Daily Show stories are to Reddit what XKCD comics are to Digg....

Then what are XKCD comics to Reddit? Cracked.com top 8 lists to Digg?

I don't mind these posts one bit. They are usually part of the 5% good news I get from reddit every day.
A man can only take so much gloom, doom, and corruption on one page!

Jon Stewart also nailed Obama masterfully. The way Obama got up and repeated a Bush speech EXACTLY and lied out his ass to the public about the situation in Iraq, propagandizing and trying to trick people into thinking that something was changing was just priceless when Stewart played Obama's clip back to back with Bushes identical clip from years earlier.
All the people that said he would go easy on Obama were, of course, wrong. Now it's just time for his audience to start dwindling as people get sick of Jon pointing out how Obama is nothing more than Bush Jr with a new coat of paint.

Sweet thanks!
I did try to google before asking...

This is what makes me sad about reddit. You know what my friend said the other day? He said that the media promotes a 2-sided ideological system meant to distract people from the fact that their economy is being intentionally imploded over the course of a century, and that the people doing this are moving us toward a global totalitarian government. But hey; who gives a shit; hes not on tv! woot! jon stewart! upvote! haha! get those bastards!

What's your issue with funny stuff? We need all the karmic relief we can get, or you have an alternative?

Didn't understand the title until I read this comment. Funny.
I wish Stewart had a 1 hour show. I hate the guest segment because it's usually a great guest and Stewart asks really good questions. Confronts them on tough issues/contradictions. But his interview is like 5 minutes. You can hardly do anything in five minutes. Certainly not adequately confront a douchebag about his/her douchebaggery. Although JS does a great job. It would just be nice to watch them squirm a little longer.

Or at least put a longer version on the webbernet.

It's called the Internet now.

When did they change it from the WWW?
2
Maybe they could put it on twitter.

Maybe our front page should just be a static list of all the websites that are consistently linked on a daily basis (WaPo, NYT, wired, etc.) and be done with it? Yeah, it doesn't make sense...

Badfish, quit whoring yourself out for comment karma.

A 'self.' post doesn't gain you any karma.

Heh, John Stewarts so funny, grr and those people, they just had it coming!!

I wish to God I could filter out submissions based upon the title.
Ron Paul Jon Stewart C&H comic xkcd 9/11 Octomom Kucinich
Seriously...I go to Preferences and I don't see this option. WTF.

You realize you'd be getting about 2 new stories a day if you had that filter on?

There's actually a lot of interesting stories submitted here but the Sheeple make sure they never make it to the front page.

Did you know that he is also more relevant and informative than conventional news sources? It's true!
Did you know that many people find that to be a sad statement?
Did you know that I have six giant warts on the head of my penis? But I won't complain because it gives me an extra inch in length.
One time I had to spend hours scraping herpes off my herpes.
Xzibit is going to stay away from that one...
Did you know that many other people are just sitting around, waiting to be informed, rather than watching an informative show available now?
Correction.
"Did you know that he is SOMETIMES also more relevant and informative than conventional news sources? It's true!"
There.
John Stewart on CNN Crossfire has corrected the sentiment that he is a journalist.
I love that about him! What a statement it is about the state of our society!
