Latest Bailout Measure Fails as Congress Tries to Escape Capitol BY ABA SEBABA STAFF WRITER
Washington, D.C.– The government’s latest sub prime bailout tactic backfired yesterday with the sudden collapse of the Washington D.C. housing market. A quorum of Senators was not present to vote on the measure, as they were all at their respective realtors trying to sell their homes before the bottom dropped out of the market. Expert analysts are blaming the crisis on Obama’s recent bipar-

tisan move into the White House. A friendly neighborhood white guy stated, “I mean, what do these people expect? Economists can never predict anything; all they know to do is explain what already happened. When a black man moves into a predominantly white neighborhood, the value of the immediate real estate goes down. My eight year old niece could have told you that!” Industry housing expert spokesman Christian Jones has repeatedly been quoted saying “You can’t spell realty without reality.”

The South, USA- Everyday we are reminded of changes made because of the economy. Now, the semifunny stand up comedian “Larry the Cable Guy” will be making a change in his career. He will now be working as an actual cable guy. ”We hired him right off the bat, I mean, his fucking name has “the cable guy” in it. whaddya stupid?” Said Angelo Marinara, representative of the cable company. And school, Fugetaboutit. Like I just said, his fucking name has Cable guy in it, bada bing, capiche? It has
been confirmed with Mr. Marinara that “Git-R-done” will be the new company slogan. Changes have been made with Comedy Central, who had previous engagements with Mr. Cable Guy. His roast which was scheduled for next month, will be changed to a pledge drive. In an interview with a Comedy Central Representative , the rep said “Fuck me! We need Money! Are you donating money to us? No? Then get off the phone!” Additionally, Larry is changing his next stand up special to a career seminar: “Internships, resumes, and opportunities. How to

Slipknot, Coldplay Debate Over Suckitude of ‘Viva La Vida’ BY G CONTRIBUTING WRITER
London, England- Slipknot vocalist Corey Taylor made headlines in the music industry when he was on MTV2 by saying that Coldplay’s Grammy Award winning album ‘Viva la Vida’ was one of the most, “celebratory pieces of shit he had ever heard in his whole fucking life”, and that it was, “music to wipe your ass to”. We asked for an interview with Mr. Taylor, but all we could get from him was guttural sounds and excessive swearing that we cannot publish in this article. To verify that ‘Viva la Vida’ was indeed “music to wipe your ass to”, we played the album in it’s entirety to 10 random Rutgers Students. After a long and intensive process of actually being forced to listen to utter crap, results were
shocking. Five students had to be sent to the hospital for extreme ear trauma, three suffered from seizures, one student’s head exploded, and one was actually able to withstand the album so that he could take a crap and wipe his ass with the bio-degradable, eco-friendly CD casing. We asked this student how it felt to wipe his ass using Coldplay and he said, “It felt kinda soft and smooth on the hole. But the album sucks ass. Whoever listens to Coldplay is legitimately insane. They copied Joe Satriani’s song and used it in one of their songs, which was called ‘Viva la Dumbass’ I think. How did they even win a Grammy for this shit?”. After our results we’re confirmed, we then asked Chris Martin for an interview. Unfortunately, his agent responded that, “Chris is currently under close psychiatric care after hearing Mr. Taylor’s re-
marks. He has been scared for life and wants an apology from Slipknot and Corey Taylor.” Slipknot responded to this by sending a giant
middle finger to Coldplay and excessively taunting them with their scary masks and screaming, which made Chris Martin cry some more.
