Last night the report from Rob Riggle was great. They played clips on an Indiana congressman stating that a market in baghdad was just like one in Indiana in the summer. These guys just reach new levels of idiocy. "Hey, remember when that car bomber blew up the fried oreo stand at the market and 450 people died" Utter jackasses.

Indiana must really have gone down the crapper since last time I was there.

I saw it and I must say again how much I love The Daily Show.

Also the part of Indiana that I've been to was certainly a scary place to be. I'm going to try to avoid that state altogether for the rest of my life.

Wow. Indiana must have gone down the crapper since I lived there almost a year ago!

Indiana isn't like Iraq, if I recall correctly. It's mostly just corn. And soy beans!

Now I have reason to constantly worry about my cousins who live there.

the Daily Show is a great show.

Indiana, however, is totally like Iraq.

Being from Indiana, I can tell you that report is 99% correct. Iraq needs a few cows and cornfields, then you got 99.9%. No place will ever be 100% like the good ol' Hoosier state. Unless of course Bobby Knight coaches a basketball team there and throws some chairs, but the odds of that are low

I'm not going to Indiana ever. And not just because Frank Burns lived there.

You just went to the wrong places. Bloomington is very nice (read: really liberal). *nods*

Well I've done fine in conservative towns. It's was Warsaw Indiana and my run-in with the law there (their suspicion based solely on me looking like an outsider hippi with long hair) that really turned me against going back. Two weeks in county jail and a few days living on the streets there. If you smuggle me in silently and show me around bloomington, I'll consider it.

Apparently you've never ventured into Gary. Once you move about a block away from Broadway in downtown, it becomes more dangerous than any spot in Iraq.

Bloomington fucking sucks. The only intelligent sign of life in the entire city looks something like this:

LAFAYETTE: 106 MILES
WEST LAFAYETTE: 112 MILES

BTFU and fuck the Hoosiers!

Good ol' Frank Burns. That's one guy that makes me ashamed of being from Fort Wayne. (At least he is only fictional..... I hope he wasn't based on a real guy anyways:eek:)

not exactly that many, but the per capita rate has to be pretty damn close.

He's based on every idiot the actor ever knew. He must have known a lot of idiots.
