This just in: Students at UC Berkeley take over administration building, hold 'red dwarf' marathon

I think it's time one of these TV news magazines addressed the epidemic plaguing today's college campuses: godawful Acapella groups and Improv troupes. These seem to attract the unimaginative youngster the way a half-eaten Werther's under the refrigerator attracts ants.
They all have names that conjure up images of people in Danskin tights and berets, which images most of the time turn out to be accurate. And they're all so smug! Like they think they're "cutting edge" because they're doing a Billy Joel song. And of course they all love the Bare Naked Ladies and don't seem to understand that the Simpson's is making fun of them about half the time: "Um, you do know that you're Milhouse, right? And you know you're the Comic Book Guy, dontcha?".
If you think Improv groups in the real world don't suck loudly enough, go check out your local college or University's, which will be called Over the Edge or Stitches (if they're at the med school). They'll hit you with the usual "give us an occupation" and then you get to watch them go "uh, uh, uh," and then come up with the obvious gag for any situation. Or not! Sometimes even the obvious will elude them and they'll quote Monty Python and the Holy Grail! And that will be funny because it thinks it's people, like when those dogs wear tutus in the circus!
I hates kids...

I don't know about no teenage acapella sensation, but I do know about sausages...them suckers will bust apart break up and ooze all over the grill if they not made right. You see, a sausage needs a durable casing, yet the casing can't be too tough because then the sausage becomes what I call "unpalatable." So if the casing is thin, why not, as they say, "go 2 ply..." catch my drift there Jughead?
