I think that M&T are less and less trying to make a funny show and more and more trying to make a big publicity stunt by breaking the rules more and more.

I kinda noticed that myself. It's less and less about the story - it's "Who can we piss off this time?"

Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the show, but it seems each episode is trying to be topical.

Are all the sacred cows dead already?

All episodes of the show have some sort of moral, but now it seems EVERY episode is built around the moral.

It's *always* been about that. And you gotta hand it to them, it must be tough finding a new group to offend after all this time.

Oh please. As long as there are liberals, there will always be a group with a big bull's eye painted on them.

So liberals are the only people who can be offended? Whatever, fuck off and die. *plonk* Do everyone else a favor and try to get on more than once a month you donkey raping shit eating peanut butter cock covered licking dipshit.

Failure is not an option. It's bundled with the software.

Let me amend that; Liberals are the ones who scream the loudest and often go further out of their way to get offended. I leave it as a trivial exercise for the reader to come up with examples from what I call the "professional whiners".

No need to get testy because you've lost the debate, hydrocephaloid.

Here's what I've noticed. "Liberals" get offended. "Conservatives" get insulted and angry. And that goes for that nominal "socialist" we know too who is just anothr closet Con.

You seem to be confusing "engaging in debate" with "being offended". HTH!

Well, as I see it, South Park is, and always was, a satire. Therefore, they make points about society while making us laugh at the same time. And satire is best when it's topical.

That's the thing about cutting-edge comedy: to break taboos and/or rules while being funny as hell. The question is, is South Park cutting-edge, or just publicity-hungry?
